In the clear blue night sky, a full moon cast its clear light on the blue-black sea waves, and a long trembling light pillar appeared on the sea.

Boats 825 and 823 set sail late at night, and under the guidance of the Maritime Safety Administration's patrol boats, they cut through the waves and sailed out of Qingdao Bay safely.

Han Yu stood on the bridge and looked at the sparkling sea under the moonlight, listening to the sound of waves lapping against the hull of the boat. He felt relaxed and happy. Not only did his eyes look extra wide, but his mind also became wider. He felt that all worldly worries were swept away by the sea. Clean it all up.

Turning around and looking in the direction of Qingdao, I couldn't help but think of the scene when I accompanied my senior sister on a trip.

I didn’t have much money at the time, so I stayed in the cheapest hotels, ate at the cheapest roadside stalls, and wanted to buy everything I saw but couldn’t bear to buy anything. But in retrospect, I was really happy and romantic at that time.

Just as he was recalling that year, Jiang Shengqi reminded: "Secretary Han, the coast patrol boat is blowing its whistle."

"Oh." Han Yu calmed down, looked back at the coast patrol boat on the left front and ordered: "Send a signal to Coast Patrol 207 and thank them for sending them all the way."

"Yes!" Jiang Shengqi responded, leaned over to turn on a switch, and skillfully tapped the Morse code, causing the signal light installed above the sidelight to flash continuously.

Immediately afterwards, the signal light on the coast patrol boat also turned on.

Han Yu had studied teleportation and even participated in competitions. Looking at the "Have a safe journey" signal sent by the other party, he smiled and said: "I also wish them a safe journey on their return voyage. They are welcome to go to Binjiang when they have time."

"Okay." Jiang Shengqi smiled and continued to send signals as Han Yu intended.

After a while, the coast guard sounded the whistle again, made a big circle and began to return.

Han Yu walked over and looked at the 823 boat not far away, and added: "Send a signal to the 823 boat and ask the 823 boat to sail as planned. There are many fishing boats and fishing nets in this area. Please pay close attention to the radar to ensure navigation. Safety."

"clear."

"Lao Liu, Jiang Bin, and Wen Ping, this place is left to the three of you. Don't rely too much on radar and pay attention to the lookout."

"Secretary Han, don't worry, we will report any situation in time."

"Okay, I'll go to the cabin first and take a look."

…

Although a sparrow is small but has all its internal organs, this sentence is most suitable for China Customs 825.

Since it will carry out anti-smuggling missions at sea in the future, and may even go to sea battles in other provinces and cities, the crew is fully equipped.

In terms of crew configuration and job arrangements on the boat, the 825 boat is completely different from the 823 boat not far away. It not only refers to the establishment of small naval ships, but also draws on the crew configuration of ocean-going cargo ships.

Han Yu is the captain and the captain, and Jiang Shengqi is the deputy captain and first mate.

Although Xiao Gong is young, he is both a cadre and a major. He was entrusted with the important task of being the chief mechanical and electrical officer. The chief mechanical and electrical officer is equivalent to the chief engineer, so now everyone calls him "Old Ghost".

Former Linghai boat officer Wang Zhixin serves as the gunnery commander, and all weapons and equipment on the boat are under his control. If he encounters armed smugglers or has other combat missions, he, the gunnery commander, must also serve as the gunnery commander, but the shooter and loader They should be transferred from the deck department and engine department.

It is worth mentioning that under Han Yu’s strong suggestion and with the approval of his superiors, the machine gun on the boat was disassembled at the shipyard and replaced with a 23mm caliber single-barreled cannon!

The reason why so many artillery shells are brought is not only because of the importance of the mission to be performed, but also because of training needs. If everything goes well, after dawn, we will conduct live-fire target shooting while sailing.

The boat is not only equipped with machine guns, but also a motorboat.

Once you encounter a fast smuggling boat, or encounter two smuggling boats at the same time, you have to put down the motorboat and chase it, so you need a well-trained commando team.

Guo Weitao's military quality is second to none and he serves as the commando captain.

However, like Wang Zhixin's gunnery commander, he is a "bare commander". When performing assault missions, his team members must be drawn from the deck and engine crews.

Including the deputy captain and first mate Jiang Shengqi, there are a total of six deck crew members.

The second officer is Liu Chuanjun, a retired officer of the Binjiang ship, the third officer is Liu Wei, whom Han Yu brought to the customs from Linghai Development Zone, and the deck crew members are Jiang Bin and Chen Yulin, who Han Yu brought from Linghai Development Zone, and Linghai Chen Shilong, a retired soldier on the boat.

Chen Shilong is older than Chen Yulin, so one of them is called "Da Chen" and the other is called "Xiao Chen".

Including the electromechanical chief Xiao Gong, there are also six people in the engineering department.

The second engineer is Sun Yuming, the former electromechanical squad leader of the Binjiang ship, the third engineer is Wang Yongning, the forward engineer of the Linghai ship, and then there are the electromechanical soldiers Gao Chao, Ding Wandong and Xu Qijun from the two naval ships.

In addition to the deck department and engine department, the 825 boat also has an observation and communication group.

The Guantong team leader is Xue Wenping, a former sonar soldier on the Binjiang ship, and the deputy team leader is Yao Yazhong, a former radar soldier on the Linghai ship. Since there are only two of them in the Guantong group, others only have to work two shifts a day, each shift lasting four hours, but they have to rotate every six hours.

Then there is Shang Zhiyong, the cook from the Binjiang ship.

It is very hard for one person to cook for more than a dozen people, but he only cooks when he is on a mission at sea. He does not need to do it after landing. The camp hired two aunties to cook. After landing, he eats ready-made meals like everyone else.

As for the duty arrangement, it is similar to that of a seagoing ship.

Deck and engine department personnel work one shift during the day and one shift at night, with each shift lasting four hours.

Third officer Liu Wei, third engineer Wang Yongning, and sailor Jiang Bin, as well as mechanics Gao Qiang, are on duty. The duty hours are from 8 a.m. to 12 noon and from 8 p.m. to 12 p.m., commonly known as eight to twelve.

Second officer Liu Chuanjun and second engineer Sun Yuming were on duty together with sailor Chen Yulin and mechanic Ding Wandong. The duty hours were from 12 midnight to 4 am and from 12 noon to 4 pm, commonly known as zero to four.

The deputy captain and first mate Jiang Shengqi, the electromechanical chief Xiao Gong, the sailor Chen Shilong, and the mechanic Xu Qijun are on duty together. The duty hours are from 4 am to 8 am and from 4 pm to 8 pm, commonly known as four to eight.

Because it was now the second officer and second supervisor on duty, Guo Weitao, Xiao Gong, Wang Zhixin and others gathered on the back deck to smoke, chat and watch the sea view.

"It's so late, why don't you go to bed?"

"Secretary Han, we can't sleep."

"You have to sleep even if you can't sleep. Tomorrow we not only have a sea trial, but we also have live ammunition shooting. If you don't sleep, you won't be energetic."

"Okay, let's go down to sleep after we finish smoking this cigarette."

An hour ago, the orders issued by the Provincial Military Region and the Navy's East China Sea Base were read out. Everyone was very excited to have the opportunity to perform peripheral security tasks for the large-scale live-fire military exercises of the two military regions' navy, army, air force, second artillery and militia reserve forces. It's normal to not be able to sleep.

Han Yu could understand their mood, and was about to go to the engine room to have a look. Wang Zhixin couldn't help but ask: "Secretary Han, we are an anti-smuggling boat, not a naval ship. Why do we have to have radio silence when we leave the port?"

"Yes, 823 is right behind. If you need anything, you can use the radio to shout. Why is it like a secret operation, using semaphores during the day and lights at night?"

"Don't understand?"

"It's not that I don't understand, I just think it's a bit exaggerated."

As soon as Xu Qijun, the engine crew member, finished speaking, Jiang Bin, the deck crew member, said in confusion: "Secretary Han, the military exercise is not a real war. The maritime affairs department must notify the cargo ships and fishing boats near the exercise area. This secret cannot be kept!"

Although most of them are from the navy, naval ships spend more time in port than at sea, and even if they go to sea, they do not sail too far. It is normal for them to not understand the situation at sea.

Keeping confidentiality is no small matter.

Han Yu felt that it was necessary to make it clear to them. He held on to the frame of the motorboat and said very seriously: "I don't know how well the navy's confidentiality work is done. I only know that the confidentiality work of the fishery administration is very important. I told you You may not believe it, but every time the fishery administration vessel of the Donghai District Fishery Administration goes to sea to perform a mission, the Japan Coast Guard will know in advance and will send boats to the disputed waters to wait for our fishery administration vessel."

Wang Zhixin asked in surprise: "How did Japan know?"

Xu Qijun asked eagerly: "Secretary Han, has someone leaked the secret?"

"The Fishery Administration Bureau has conducted self-examinations many times, and it is said that the security forces have also conducted investigations and found that no one leaked secrets. Finally, it was discovered that the problem lies in communications. People can monitor our wireless communication signals. So now the fishery administration ships go out to sea to perform tasks. It must be kept secret in advance, and after we go to sea, we will receive the specific orders of the mission to be performed via satellite phone fax."

Han Yu paused and added: "As for relevant cargo ships and fishing boats to avoid sailing in the exercise waters, the National Maritime Safety Administration will definitely issue a notice, but the time of issuing the notice is particular."

Guo Weitao asked curiously: "What's the point?"

"To hold such a large-scale joint military exercise, we must prepare. Mobilization, organization, and transfer of soldiers and equipment all take time. If someone wants to send warships or even spy ships to peek at how we conduct exercises, it will also take time to prepare. "

"Understood, we have to prepare secretly, conduct it secretly, and wait until everything is ready before issuing an announcement. Even if Taiwan, the Yankees, and Little Japan know about it, it will be too late to send warships. When their warships arrive near the exercise area, our military exercises will be Almost over."

"That's pretty much what it means, but it's not that easy to keep it secret."

Han Yu raised his finger to the top of his head and said solemnly: "Do you know why we chose to set sail in the middle of the night? It is to avoid other people's satellites. Such a large-scale military exercise requires mobilizing so many troops. The Navy's ships have to leave the port, and the Air Force's Fighters, bombers and transports are going to make the transition, and God knows if the Yankees can see it via satellite."

Xiao Gong asked in a low voice: "What should we do?"

"This is something that the leaders will consider. Our mission is to patrol the designated waters as soon as possible to see if there are any foreign warships in that area and ensure the safety of the submarine formations that go out to sea to conduct live-fire exercises."

"Where's that at home?"

"What home?"

"Secretary Han, didn't you say that the training ship of the Maritime Academy, the tugboat of Linghai Port and the third company of the Linghai Reserve Battalion will also participate in the exercise?"

"We don't need to worry about it at home. The military division and the Linghai Armed Forces Department will make arrangements. Besides, there is political commissar Ge Diao and He Fang in charge of our hometown. Director Feng will also fly back to Binjiang tomorrow morning."

…

Just as he was talking, the roar of the host suddenly stopped.

The swells on the sea are not small, and it is very dangerous for the anti-smuggling boat to suddenly lose power and suddenly stop sailing.

The hull of the boat rocked violently with the swells, and an alarm sounded from the loudspeaker.

Han Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he ran to the cabin and asked, "What's going on? Why did the main engine shut down?"

Wang Yongning, who was on duty in the cabin, was also frightened and shouted anxiously: "I don't know, I'm checking."

"Xiao Gong, come with me to check! Weitao, quickly tell Vice Captain Jiang to get on the bridge and hold me steady."

"yes!"

…

A new ship that has just been launched has not even completed all the trial projects. It is normal to have problems of one kind or another, but it is very abnormal for the main engine to suddenly stall.

Han Yu did not dare to waste a moment and rushed into the cabin to touch and inspect the pipelines with Xiao Gong, Wang Yongning and others.

Jiang Shengqi knew very well what it meant for the anti-smuggling boat to lose power at sea. As soon as he returned to the bridge, he took over the steering wheel, constantly adjusted the course, and tried to keep the boat stable.

"Secretary Han, what's going on?"

"Under inspection." Han Yu continued to touch and shouted to the intercom not far away: "Inform all crew members to get on the deck, put on life jackets, and pay attention to safety."

"yes!"

"Send a signal to 823 and say that our boat's main engine has malfunctioned and we are working hard to eliminate it. Please ask 823 to be ready for rescue at any time."

…

Just as he was giving the order, Xiao Gong suddenly turned around and shouted: "Secretary Han, the cooling pipe is very hot!"

"Get out of the way, let me take a look." Han Yu quickly squeezed forward, reached out and touched it, and it was indeed very hot. He immediately asked: "Old Wang, go check the meter and report the water temperature of the cooling pipe?"

"immediately!"

Wang Yongning hurriedly squeezed to the cabinet with many instruments, took a closer look, and said eagerly: "Report to Secretary Han that the water temperature of the cooling pipe is abnormal, as high as 82 degrees!"

Han Yu took a deep breath and said with an almost certain tone: "It should be the garbage in the sea that blocks the cooling pipe. The garbage must be cleaned up immediately!"

As the electromechanical chief, Xiao Gong had studied the drawings and working conditions of the main engine before coming to Qingdao to receive the anti-smuggling boat. When he heard what Han Yu said, he suddenly reacted. He immediately pushed Han Yu away, opened the valve with all his strength, and shouted : "Secretary Han, Brother Wang, please step back and leave this to me!"

"Xiao Gong, I'm on duty now, let me do it."

"I am an old ghost, and I have the final say in the cabin. Brother Wang, please cooperate!"

The water temperature in the cooling pipe is as high as over 80 degrees. How do you clean it with your hands?

Just when Han Yu wanted him to wait and look for suitable tools, Xiao Gong had already opened the valve, and scalding hot water spurted out.

It is too dangerous for the anti-smuggling boat to lose power and it is an emergency.

Xiao Gong didn't hesitate at all, he just put his hand into the cooling pipe and picked up the garbage. His hands and arms were so hot that they hurt, but he couldn't care less...

As judged before, the cooling pipe was indeed blocked by the fishing net.

Xiao Gong bit the towel tightly and took out the rotten fishing net bit by bit. After more than ten minutes of fierce fighting, the water temperature dropped, the main engine was restarted, and the anti-smuggling boat and all crew members were out of danger, and his hands and right arm also It was red, swollen and blistered.

Seeing this, Han Yu felt uncomfortable in his heart. He held the intercom tightly and said with sobs: "Vice Captain Jiang, cancel the alarm and send a signal to boat 823. The main engine fault of our boat has been eliminated."

"Roger." Jiang Shengqi finally relaxed and immediately signaled the watchman on duty to send a signal to the 823 boat.

Han Yu put down the phone and continued: "Old Wang, organize people to clean the cabin! Xiao Gong, hold on, I will take you up to clean the wound and apply scald medicine."

"Secretary Han, I'm fine."

"It's burned like this, how can it be okay? It must be very painful."

"It didn't hurt very much just now, but now it hurts so much." Xiao Gong was so heartbroken by the pain that he sweatdropped from the pain.

Han Yu took a few deep breaths, and while helping him climb up to the deck, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Fortunately, it's only over 80 degrees. It would be troublesome if it were boiling water. Don't worry, there shouldn't be any traces of water." Lower the scar.”
