Riverside police

With the arrival of Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, "Linghai Hotel" officially opened!

Commander Lu of the 105th Army came to the ship to inspect the work the night before. Commander Meng of the 402nd Army quickly received the news and brought several subordinates who had fought side by side with the Linghai Reserve Battalion to come to the ship to inspect the work last night.

Deputy Commander Yu saw two senior military officers running to the salted fish boat one after another. Tonight, he also invited Team Leader Fang, who was responsible for troop transfer and logistics support, to come to the boat to inspect the work.

"The conditions are not bad. I'll have a hot pot and a drink. No wonder the two men from the 105th Army and the 402nd Army like to come to your place."

"Team leader Fang, Commander Lu is our old leader. We were under the control of Commander Lu when we were fighting floods last year."

"Where is Commander Meng?"

"We fought side by side."

"I know so many military leaders, including the land, sea and air. You have a wide network of friends."

"The main reason is that the chiefs are approachable and look up to us little soldiers."

With the air conditioner blowing on, eating spicy hot pot, and drinking cold beer, this little life was really enjoyable, and it was countless times better than being on the shore.

Team Leader Fang took a sip of beer, turned around and said with a smile: "Deputy Commander Yu, I am taking advantage of you. If it weren't for you, how could I have enjoyed this treatment?"

Tonight is different from last night. The two chiefs are both from the navy and have never interacted with each other before. Yang Jianbo, Ma Jintao and others did not dare to come here. They ate at "Xiao Zao" and only Han Yu was with them.

There are no outsiders, or to be precise, no subordinates around.

Deputy Commander Yu had nothing to worry about. He held a beer and said with a smile: "It should be because of the old leader. If it weren't for Chief of Staff Feng, there would be no chance for us to get to know Xianyu."

"That's true." Team leader Fang put down his cup and asked curiously: "Xianyu, what is Chief of Staff Feng busy with? Is he doing well now?"

"Very good." Han Yu said quickly: "After Director Feng retired, COSCO planned to hire him as a consultant, and our Binjiang Municipal Party Committee and Government also wanted to hire him, but he declined. He said that it was not like he had no retirement salary. Since he retired, You can’t go around taking other people’s money by your name.”

"After all these years, his temper has not changed at all."

"He has been the director of the Hong Kong Supervisory Authority in Binjiang for so many years. He has never accepted gifts from others or taken advantage of the public. He is respected by everyone from top to bottom."

As soon as Han Yu finished speaking, Deputy Commander Yu introduced with a smile: "Team Leader Fang, Chief of Staff Feng not only grew up watching Xianyu, but he is also Xianyu's matchmaker. Xianyu's lover works in the Binjiang Port Supervision Bureau. For Xianyu and his lover to get together is because Chief of Staff Feng is a great matchmaker."

Team Leader Fang smiled and asked, "Really?"

"Yes," Han Yu said with an embarrassed smile: "Director Feng has always cared about me and supported the work of our unit. I used to work in the local public security, and the local police were poor. Our police station along the Yangtze River had the current equipment. And a large part of the funding comes from the Binjiang Port Supervision Bureau.”

Comrade Lao Feng was a man of great influence when he was in the army. He was the youngest captain and the youngest full-time division cadre in the Navy.

Thinking of this, Team Leader Fang said with emotion: "If Lao Feng had not changed his career back then, he would probably be a lieutenant general now."

"Stop talking about this and drink."

Deputy Commander Yu didn't want to tell his "junior brother" that the old leader had made the wrong choice, so he raised his glass and touched it with Team Leader Fang.

Team leader Fang finished his glass of wine, looked at Han Yu with a smile and said, "Xianyu, the suggestions you made at the observation team meeting a few days ago have been accepted by your superiors, and the establishment of three more marine battalions will be added to the East China Sea Fleet, and it has been approved by the State Council. Establish four reserve transportation groups in COSCO and China Shipping."

Han Yu asked in surprise: "The superior agreed so quickly?"

"This time we not only want to deter the Taiwan independence forces, but also identify and solve problems during the exercise, so the suggestions adopted by the superiors are not just the two suggestions you made."

"Xianyu, do you want to know what other suggestions your superiors have adopted?"

"I don't want to know, Deputy Commander Yu. I don't understand military affairs, so there's no point in telling me."

"Really don't want to know?"

"In no mood."

"You can do it, kid. You've learned to be wise and protect yourself!"

"This is not a matter of self-protection. The main thing is that I really don't understand." Seeing the two leaders smiling but not smiling, Han Yu could only say with embarrassment: "I really can't be a soldier. I owe hundreds of thousands of foreign debts. If I am specially recruited How can I repay the loan with the salary from joining the army?"

Deputy Commander Yu knew that he had bought a house in Donghai and asked with a smile: "Is it because of financial reasons that you don't dare to join the army?"

"It's not just economic reasons."

"What other reasons?"

"I'm used to freedom. The army has too many rules. I'm definitely not used to it."

"The Smuggling Crime Investigation Bureau is a subordinate bureau of the Ministry of Public Security. It is under semi-military management like local public security. Doesn't the Smuggling Crime Investigation Bureau have regulations?"

"Yes, but my situation is quite special. Let's put it this way, I am not just a police officer. I have to take care of anything on the river. To be precise, I want to assist in law enforcement or joint law enforcement."

"No wonder people call you the 'Admiral of the Binjiang Navy'. I understand, everyone has their own ambitions. We won't force you, but you can't stay out of the matter of forming a reserve transportation group."

"Those are COSCO and China Shipping. How am I qualified to tell them what to do?"

Afraid that the two chiefs would not believe it, Han Yu put down his chopsticks and explained: "COSCO is our 'funder'. When we established the Water Fire Fighting Association in Binjiang, COSCO Shipyard was our member. Until now, we have paid membership fees to our association. Later, we established People in the Linghai Reserve Camp contributed money and people to build it together with us.

As for China Shipping, it was the Shipping Bureau before the restructuring, so it can be said to be my old unit. I joined other people's ships when I was seventeen years old and took advantage of their crew training program. I worked from third mate to trainee first mate. I also received tens of thousands in labor fees and voyage bonuses. "

Deputy Commander Yu smiled and said: "We are not asking you to dictate what others do. We are asking you to help others form reserve forces. This is equivalent to giving you the opportunity to repay others."

It costs money to modify a freighter, not to mention modifying one or two ships.

The establishment of four reserve transportation groups requires training. Training not only requires other people's freighters and crew members, but also requires funds.

COSCO has developed very well in the past few years, but China Shipping's development has been unsatisfactory after its restructuring.

Many maritime bureau crews have been laid off. If you ask them to set up a reserve transport force at this time, it will increase the burden on them.

Han Yu dared not go even to death. He was afraid that people would know that he made this suggestion, so he hurriedly said: "Two leaders, what COSCO and China Shipping are most in need of are retired soldiers. If you don't believe me, you can ask. People don't know these years." Accept how many demobilized veterans have been resettled. Without me, they would be able to do just fine."

"Are you scared?"

"I'm not afraid, the main thing is that I don't have that much energy. I am now an anti-smuggling policeman. After I complete my current mission, I will not only fight against smuggling on the river, but also at sea. I will even have to obey the arrangements of the General Administration and the General Administration. The ship battles in the Bohai Sea and even the South China Sea are inseparable at all."

We have to admit that human energy is limited.

Deputy Commander Yu was silent for a moment and said, "You are very familiar with COSCO and China Shipping. Can you recommend someone who can take the lead?"

"Chief, you think too highly of me. I am quite familiar with COSCO China Shipping, but I am only familiar with the engineering and technical personnel of COSCO Shipyard and some captains, political commissars, and crew members of China Shipping. I have never dealt with the leaders of COSCO China Shipping, let alone Not to mention the CEO and Vice President of COSCO.”

Han Yu thought about it and then said: "In fact, you can ask Director Feng to come out. Director Feng was responsible for this aspect of work at COSCO before he retired."

Deputy Commander Yu subconsciously looked at Team Leader Fang.

Team leader Fang nodded and sighed: "It seems that we can only ask Old Feng to come out. I will report to my superiors tomorrow."

Deputy Commander Yu still felt a little regretful after thinking about it. He looked at Han Yu and said seriously and sincerely: "Xianyu, yesterday afternoon, the head of the fleet talked to the head of the Nanjing Military Region about you and said that if you want to be a soldier, you can be specially recruited. Enlist in the army and go to the Nanjing Military Region or our fleet headquarters to specialize in the construction of militia reserve forces."

Leader Fang was convinced. He put down his chopsticks and said, "Whether you are transferred to the Military Region Headquarters or the Fleet Headquarters, you must at least be assigned to a regular camp. If you work hard for two or three years, it will be easy to be promoted to deputy regiment."

"Thank you, two chiefs. As I said before, my situation is quite special and my conditions do not allow me to serve as a soldier."

"Well, if you don't want to be a soldier, you can still do a lot of things locally."

Team leader Fang stopped insisting, put down his wine glass and changed the topic: "Go ashore early tomorrow. It's best to go ashore with us later. I'll take you somewhere early tomorrow morning to see your old friends."

"Where are you going? Who are you looking at?" Han Yu asked subconsciously.

Team Leader Fang did not answer his question, but dipped his finger in beer and drew a submarine on the table.

Han Yu reacted and asked excitedly: "Team Leader Fang, are you talking about going to see the big shark I participated in the transshipment?"

"Um."

"Thank you, Team Leader Fang. When we get to the place, I... I can just take a look on the shore. I won't go in."

"..."

"Team Leader Fang, don't get me wrong. I know this is not a 'trap'. I just feel like I don't know how to do it. Even if I go in, I won't be able to tell anything. I'm satisfied just looking at it from the outside."

This boy is so cautious. He is afraid of being a soldier to his core!

Team leader Fang was so dumbfounded that he weighed it up and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll just watch from the shore, but I want to introduce you to all the crew members. By the way, I want you to tell all the crew members about the experience of transferring the submarine back." How difficult it is.”

"Team leader Fang, Xianyu is a flood-fighting hero. We can definitely take this opportunity for Xianyu to hold a report meeting on flood-fighting and rescue efforts."

"Yes, it's a rare opportunity. We must talk about it tomorrow. First we will talk about the transshipment process, and then we will talk about flood control and rescue operations!"

"Team Leader Fang, Deputy Commander Yu, I can't speak Mandarin well. I can't speak it well."

"There's nothing to be afraid of if you don't speak standard Mandarin. Just have a casual chat and treat it as normal with the captain and crew. As long as you complete this task, I will take you to see the modern-class destroyers that will be equipped for our navy next year!"

The Sovremenny-class destroyer was the most advanced destroyer in the former Soviet Union.

I had only seen it in magazines before. Han Yu was very interested and said happily: "Okay, I will talk about it tomorrow."

It's rare for a "junior brother" to participate in a military exercise, and it's rare for the troops to gather together like this. Naturally, Deputy Commander Yu will not miss this opportunity.

After secretly making up his mind to go ashore, he asked the commander of the fleet for instructions and reported to see if he could use his spare time during field exercises to let the "little junior brother", a model flood fighter, hold more deed report meetings to motivate the officers and soldiers participating in the exercises.
