Riverside Police.

A Naval Aviation transport plane circled overhead, flying low and loudly.

Seeing Han Yu's impatience, Staff Officer Zhang explained with a smile: "The higher-ups must be worried about organizing so many fishing boats to transport soldiers. It's normal to send a plane to see."

"Send a transport plane to see what's the use. It's true to arrange two fighter planes or two frigates to escort."

"I don't know if there are fighter jets escorting it, but there must be surface ships escorting it, but it's far away and we can't see it."

"Really?"

"there must be."

Han Yu wanted to verify it, so he turned around and said, "Major Li, let Jiang Yu 211, 280, and 301 sail another 5 nautical miles to the east to see if there are surface ships escorting the east."

Li Mingsheng was stunned, and asked with a smile, "Is it necessary?"

"The horsepower of the fishing boats is only so great, and the speed of large troops cannot be increased, and they are idle. Let them go to see if there are any warships in the east."

"Row."

……

At the same time, many Army officers and soldiers on the fishing boat began to vomit again.

The feeling of sailing is completely different from that of anchoring, the bumps are more severe, and it feels like riding a roller coaster.Sometimes a wave hits the cab, and the waves can hit the cab. If there is no safety rope and safety net, it may really be shot far away by the waves.

Some officers and soldiers are more adaptable. They vomited badly at night and had headaches, but they recovered quickly, and there is no seasickness reaction now.

They were very excited when they saw the military planes circling overhead, and wanted to wave and say hello, but they could only think about it but couldn't put it into action.

It was clearly stated in the precautions for boarding last night that no matter what situation you encounter during the voyage, you must not reveal your identity. You can only be covered in a fishing net like a "fish" and look at the plane through the fishing net.

The camouflage effect of the fishing net is not very good, but it is better than nothing and can ensure safety.

It's just that the smell of the fishing net is not very good, there is a fishy smell, and there are even dead fish and rotten shrimps that have not been picked clean on the fishing net.

"Squad leader, the plane has flown away."

"Oh."

"Squad leader, where are we now, and how long will this boat be sitting on?"

"Don't talk to me." The squad leader had a strong reaction to seasickness, dizziness, and his stomach seemed to be shaking, so he picked up a convenience bag and put it over his mouth.

The little soldier was afraid of being spit all over by the squad leader, so he quickly moved to the side, held his gun and asked the deputy squad leader: "Squad deputy, how far do you think we are from the coastline?"

"do not know."

"Which direction is the boat heading at this moment?"

"Go south, don't you know where the sun is?" The deputy's buttocks were numb, and he moved his body slightly, looked at the fishnet, and asked weakly: "I have a terrible headache. Doesn't it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt."

"Well, your physical fitness is better than mine."

Most of the officers and soldiers on the fishing boat got seasick, and the leaders on the tugboat also got sick.

Commander Ding stayed in the "Joint Command" for a while and couldn't bear it any longer. He found an excuse and went back to the crew cabin, lay down and pinched his temples.

The deputy head's seasickness reaction was more intense, and he started to vomit from the time he set sail, and he vomited all the way here.

Head Ding asked listlessly: "Old Yang, are you all right?"

"fine."

"I used to think that the navy was treated well, but now that I think about it, it should be treated well. It's really hard to take a boat. I don't know how uncomfortable it feels to be seasick if I don't take a seaboat once."

Deputy head Yang cheered up and asked worriedly: "Head, how are the soldiers doing?"

"Not very good." Captain Ding sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Mr. Li said that many soldiers have vomited their gall, and the current situation cannot be relieved for two or three days."

"If you don't organize training in this area at ordinary times, you will lose the chain at critical moments."

"Even if you want to organize, you don't have the conditions. Besides, we are definitely not the only ones who get seasick. The superiors probably won't say anything when we get to the local area."

"Where is Chen Chu, did Chen Chu say anything?"

"No, he's also seasick, and he's throwing up in the crew cabin right now."

……

This small incident was nothing to Han Yu and Staff Officer Zhang. The two sat in the headquarters and ate watermelon while chatting about the military exercise they were participating in.

"The tonnage of the fishing boat is small, the stability is not good, and the turbulence is severe. It is normal for officers and soldiers participating in the battle to get seasick. In fact, the superiors should have considered it early, why not organize them to take the landing ship."

"The tonnage of the landing ship is relatively large. Taking a landing ship is more comfortable than taking a fishing boat. But do you know how many landing ships our East China Sea Fleet has?"

Han Yu threw the watermelon rind into the trash can and asked curiously, "How many ships are there?"

Staff Officer Zhang said in a low voice: "There are only four Type 072 ships."

Han Yu read ship magazines more than ten years ago, and he is no stranger to the Type 072 landing ship. He knew that it was a surface ship designed in the 70s and built in the 80s. How many officers and soldiers can be transported?"

"Including heavy equipment such as tanks, at most one division can be transported at a time."

"Why don't you requisition a few more ro-ro ships?"

"You are the chief mate of a sea-going ship in the unlimited navigation area. You should know how many ro-ro ships there are in the country. Not to mention that it is not so easy to requisition, even if you can requisition it, you can't go into battle if you don't refit it."

The landing ship is specially designed and built for landing operations. The tank cabin is very strong and strong. The ordinary ro-ro ship is different. Although it can carry a lot of vehicles, the deck may not be able to bear the weight of the tank. After all, there are dozens of tanks at every turn. Ton.

More importantly, the door of the ro-ro ship does not open as soon as it wants to be opened. It needs to be close to the special wharf to open the door and lower the deck before the vehicles in the cabin can be driven ashore.If it is opened at sea like a landing ship, it might sink the ship.

Thinking of this, Han Yu asked in surprise: "So how many large ships were not requisitioned for this exercise?"

"No."

"Landing operations are different from other operations. It is always impossible to rely on fishing boats like this. Fishing boats are small in tonnage and can only transport soldiers, not heavy equipment, or even a few soldiers. The horsepower is small, and they can maneuver when performing beach landing tasks. Poor sex, crowding on the beachhead and the sea is a living target."

"There is no way around this. We also want to equip a few more landing ships, but our superiors don't equip us. We can only win modern warfare under high-tech conditions based on existing equipment."

"Some tasks can be based on existing equipment, but some tasks cannot."

"You know this, I know it, and the superiors know it too. Who doesn't want advanced equipment, but that costs money. You carried out the mission of transporting the 'big shark' back then. How much does it cost to introduce a 'big shark'? Clearest."

Staff Officer Zhang took a deep breath, and continued, "Let's not talk about large ships, even small boats are not cheap. For example, the anti-smuggling boat you just received is worth more than 2000 million yuan. Can we afford it?"

Han Yu could understand Staff Officer Zhang's mood. He was silent for a moment and said with a wry smile, "To say that the superiors may be unhappy, the slogan of winning modern warfare under high-tech conditions based on existing equipment is a bit unrealistic."

"Yeah, the gap in equipment is too different from others, not to mention compared with the United States, but even compared with Japan. If you look at their [-]th fleet, you will feel aggrieved when you think about it."

Staff Officer Zhang lit a cigarette, and continued: "Our navy is not very good, and the air force is not much better. I heard that the air force is studying how to use J-7 and J-8 to fight F16. The electronic equipment of F16 is so advanced that it can fight beyond visual range. , You haven't seen him yet, his missiles are coming over, how to fight!"

Han Yu whispered: "Taiwan is equipped with F16."

"There were 130 equipped in the previous year. In addition, there were 60 Mirage 2000s and more than 40 IDF light third-generation aircraft."

"More than our Su-27."

"Ah."

"So they won't necessarily be afraid of our military exercises?"

"There is neither complete command of the air nor complete command of the sea. If they only compare equipment, they may not be afraid, but we can't do nothing. You don't know what we were scolded by the people when the embassy was bombed."

As long as something happens at sea, the navy will be scolded miserably, and the same is true for the newly established sea surveillance.

Compared with the navy and sea surveillance, the reputation of fishery administration is much better.

The most ironic thing is that every time this happens, the urban management will lay down their guns, and in the words of ordinary people, "Lend me three thousand urban management to recover Taiwan."

The more Han Yu thought about it, the more unhappy he felt, and said with a wry smile: "Consultant Zhang, it's a good thing I didn't become a navy, otherwise I would have been scolded like you."

"If you want to pick yourself out, there is no way." Staff Officer Zhang stubbed out his cigarette, pointed at him and said, "You are a pre-appointed officer of our navy, and you are the navy!"

……

At 8:24 p.m., the East China Sea Base.

The surface fleet under the base has all left the port, the dock berths are empty, but the headquarters building is brightly lit.

The phone rang one after another, and the combat staff was busy in front of the chart.

The commander went to Jianfu Province yesterday, and Deputy Commander Yu was at the base.

He had just confirmed the locations of the transportation brigades, and the deputy leader of the exercise director group, who was in charge of troop transfer and logistics supply, walked in quickly.

"Team Leader Fang, what instruction?"

"There is no instruction, but I saw an interesting transport fleet at sea."

"Which one?" Deputy Commander Yu asked curiously.

Team Leader Fang took the baton from the combat staff officer, pointed at the chart and said with a smile, "Binjiang Militia Transport Brigade."

Deputy Commander Yu was an old subordinate of Bureau Feng. He couldn't help thinking of the "closed disciple" of the old leader, and asked curiously, "What happened to the Binjiang militia transportation brigade?"

"They didn't join the big formation, they deliberately kept a distance from the big formation. Their formation was very scattered. Not only did they arrange a few ships to guard the periphery, they even put anti-aircraft guns on board. I became their target. Staring at me. The pilot feared they would go off, and was taken aback by them."

"They have air defense?"

"At first I thought they were going off course, but after a closer look I saw that their maneuvers had already begun, taking all the anti-aircraft measures they could take."

I knew that kid Salted Fish would not be safe!

Deputy Commander Yu couldn't help but asked with a smile: "What other anti-aircraft measures are there?"

Team Leader Fang took a stack of photos from the accompanying staff officer, handed them over with a smile and said, "We took these photos on the plane in the afternoon. Look, they actually have camouflage. Although they used fishing nets, if you don't observe carefully, It’s hard to see that the decks of those fishing boats were crowded with officers and soldiers who participated in the battle.”

Deputy Commander Yu took a look at the photo, looked up and said with a smile: "Group Leader Fang, they are not the Binjiang Militia Transport Brigade, but the Binjiang Militia Reserve Detachment mixed with the Binjiang Navy Reserve Rescue Ship Brigade. You should have an impression of the detachment leader. , is the salted fish that helped us transport the 'big shark' back then."

"It was him!"

"He is now the captain of the Binjiang Naval Reserve Rescue Ship Brigade. It is normal for him to think about these things."

"What do you mean?"

"For us it's a drill, for him it's almost like actual combat, or he has been in actual combat."

"Deputy Commander Yu, can you be more specific?"

"He is a marine policeman. He has been working on the water since he was 16 years old, cracking down on river bandits and ship tyrants, assisting port supervision, fishery administration and water administration in law enforcement. "

Deputy Commander Yu paused for a moment, then continued: "For us, raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time is mainly about training. He is different from us. He not only wants to train but also to actually fight. He can't and dare not take training seriously. Training must be close to actual combat, otherwise people will die."

In terms of actual combat experience, the active-duty troops are really inferior to the public security.

Team Leader Fang was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Which unit is he in now, and what is his current position?"

"I was just transferred to the Binjiang Branch of the Jiangnan Smuggling Crime Investigation Bureau, and now I am the head of the water anti-smuggling section of the Binjiang Branch. Jiangnan Customs just received two anti-smuggling boats, and the crews were trained by him. In his words, they are the Second Navy. , he can indeed command two anti-smuggling boats equipped with machine guns."

"You know him well?"

"He was raised by Chief of Staff Feng. He is a cadre trained by Chief of Staff Feng. In terms of seniority, he can be said to be my younger brother."

"Trained by Lao Feng?"

"Well, it was trained by Chief of Staff Feng when he was the director of Binjiang Harbor Supervision. He was also a general ordered by Chief of Staff Feng when he participated in the transfer of big sharks."

"It's no wonder, this is a strong general who has no weak soldiers."

"It's a pity that people look down on our navy, otherwise he would have been specially recruited into the army."
