Chapter 866 Escort Captain!

Xiaoyu didn't learn to become obsessed, but became addicted to playing computer games!
This is not a trivial matter. His addiction to computer games not only affects his work, but also affects his husband and wife relationship. Han Yu feels that Xiaoyu cannot be allowed to become addicted.

As soon as I got home, I called Liu Guixiang, Zhao Ju and others, and suggested that it is best to use a two-pronged approach in investigating Jiangshang system theft.

The investigation on the shore is still carried out, and at the same time, forces must be organized to squat on the river.

The recent series of theft cases, compared with the previously uncovered cases of self-theft, involved a relatively small amount of money, but the impact was very bad.

And it will be New Year's Day soon, and the Spring Festival will be after New Year's Day. If the case is not solved as soon as possible, how can the crew have a stable and peaceful Spring Festival?

Liu Guixiang and Zhao Hongxing thought it was feasible, and Li Jun arranged for the border guards to participate in the squatting.

Although Xiaoyu is a sub-department cadre like Liu Guixiang, but Liu Guixiang is the deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, and the impact of the case he is investigating is extremely bad, so Liu Guixiang was transferred to the "Joint Task Force" and began to guard day and night.

Yuzhen was very happy and called Han Yu to express her thanks.

Just when Han Yu was dumbfounded by the couple, Deputy Commander Yu of the East China Sea Base and Staff Officer Wu of the Navy Headquarters rushed to Binjiang. Attend the commendation ceremony.

Secretary Lu went to a meeting in the province, and Mayor Wang was not at home, accompanied by Deputy Mayor Qin and the leaders of the military division.

Although the commendation ceremony was brief, it was grand. Deputy Commander Yu personally read out the merit order and awarded medals and certificates to Han Yu and other officers and soldiers of the rescue ship brigade.

As for the bonus, it will be distributed by the Binjiang Navy Cadre Rest Center.

Entrusted by the Political Department of the Navy, Staff Officer Wu awarded honorary certificates of "Excellent Pre-commissioned Officer" and "Excellent Pre-commissioned Soldier" to eight reserve officers and soldiers, including Han Yu.

Deputy Commander Yu is a major general, the general is here, and the military division wants to receive him.

The dinner was arranged by the military sub-district, and no funds were spent by the ship rescue brigade.

After dinner, Deputy Mayor Qin, Commander Wang, and Political Commissar Chen accompanied Deputy Commander Yu to upgrade, while Han Yu came to Staff Officer Wu's room and chatted with Staff Officer Wu.

"Brother, this time I've got you covered."

"Is there any mistake, you are the staff officer of the headquarters, and I am almost as good as you."

"I'm not joking with you." Staff Officer Wu touched his forehead and said embarrassedly: "On the night of the earthquake, if I hadn't gone to eat on your boat, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to make second-class merit."

"You have achieved second-class merit!"

"Well, it's not just me, Lao Wang and Lao Liu are also the same."

"It's just in time. You happened to be at the anchorage when the earthquake happened, and you have the highest positions. Of course, you should organize the rescue."

There are so many officers participating in the exercise, and there are hundreds of generals alone. It is not easy to stand out in the exercise!

Staff Officer Wu was grateful to Han Yu from the bottom of his heart. He was really happy to see Han Yu, but he felt hypocritical to say thank you, so he simply asked with a smile, "Salted fish, are you interested in the Olympics?"

Han Yu was at a loss when asked, and said, "It's exciting to see our Chinese athletes win gold medals, but I'm not very interested in sports."

"not interested?"

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. I didn't see a table tennis table until I was in junior high school, and I didn't see anyone playing football until I was in technical secondary school. I went to elementary school in the countryside and had nothing. I was poor and couldn't afford a racket. I went to school early , I’m short, not to mention I didn’t teach basketball when I was in school, even if I did, it wouldn’t be my turn.”

Han Yu thought about it and smiled again: "You said that the Olympics will be held next year?"

"It's next year."

"If I remember correctly, next year's Olympic Games will be held in Sydney. What does that have to do with us?"

Staff Officer Wu said with a smile: "If you are interested in the Olympics, you will have to watch them every day, so you will not be able to travel far or do other things. If you are not interested in these, you will be able to travel far."

Han Yu came to his senses and asked happily, "Where are you going? There will be exercises next year?"

"I don't know whether we will conduct exercises next year. I only know that we will organize two fleet formations to visit next year. One formation will visit Seattle and other cities in the United States, and the other will visit Africa."

"Can you take me to see the world?"

Staff Officer Wu hesitated for a moment, and said with a bit of embarrassment: "I'm not taking you to meet the world, but if you're interested, you can take us on a long trip."

"I'll take you, what a joke."

"I'm really not joking." Staff Officer Wu took a deep breath and asked, "Everyone knows that the Zengmu Shoal belongs to China, but do you know when our navy first went to the Zengmu Shoal?"

Han Yu was stopped by the question and shook his head slightly.

Staff Officer Wu smiled wryly and said: "In May 1983, our naval fleet lasted 5 days and nights, with a voyage of 30 nautical miles, and arrived at Zengmu Shoal for the first time. Among the ships in the formation, there is the 'Binjiang Ship' named after your Binjiang!"

As long as I can remember, the teacher said that the Zengmu Shoal belongs to China, but the naval ships did not go there until May 1983, which is too disappointing.

Han Yuzheng didn't know what to say, and Staff Officer Wu continued: "You know our situation, we rarely travel far, and we are not familiar with the routes, currents and the conditions of the ports along the route, so we don't know what to do when we encounter some unexpected situations. How to deal with it, I don’t understand international conventions, and my English is not very good, so every time I go abroad, I have to ask the Ministry of Communications to arrange garrison liaison officers, that is, escort captains like Teacher Xia and Teacher Wang.”

"Have you ever been to Africa before?"

"No, this is the first time."

"How long?"

"It is expected to take two months to visit countries such as Malaysia along the way."

Escort captains generally come from the maritime system and nautical academies. They are mainly responsible for communicating with the search and rescue center of the Ministry of Communications and the maritime affairs and ports of countries along the route. Ensure safe navigation.

The maritime system staff and navigation school teachers who are qualified to serve as "escort captains" are mainly from COSCO and other shipping companies, and they are all experienced captains.

Due to the relationship between salary and social status, most experienced captains are unwilling to work in the Maritime Safety Administration, and they are not willing to teach in maritime colleges.After all, whether they are in the maritime system or in colleges, there is little room for advancement.

In short, there are not many candidates who can perform this task.

Thinking of this, Han Yu couldn't help but asked with a smile: "I can go, am I qualified?"

"Although you are not a first-class captain of a sea-going ship, your qualifications are there. You have even participated in the transfer of big sharks. As long as you are willing, your superiors will definitely agree."

"How big is the visiting formation?"

"It's not big. It consists of two ships, a guided missile frigate and a supply ship."

"are you going?"

"The ships of the visiting formation are transferred from the fleet. Although the command post of the visiting formation is temporarily set up, the personnel in the command post are mainly from the fleet, and there are very few places left for the headquarters. Originally, I had no chance, because with your light, I will immediately I got a second-class merit, and my superiors decided to arrange for me to participate in a foreign visit next year."

"To America or to Africa?"

"Which round can I go to the United States, I can only go to Africa."

Han Yu hadn't been abroad for many years, and Han Yu was really a little anxious. He looked at him with a smile and asked, "Is there really a chance for me to be the escort captain?"

Staff Officer Wu confirmed with a smile: "Team Leader Fang is in charge of the preparations before the visit, and Team Leader Fang asked me to ask you about what I just said."

"Will Team Leader Fang go?"

"Go, he is the political commissar of the visiting formation."

"Who is the commander?"

"The ships of the fleet going to Africa are drawn from the South China Sea Fleet, and the commander of the visiting fleet is conventionally held by the chief of staff of the South China Sea Fleet."

Teacher Xia was the escort captain of the scientific research ship Xuelong.

Mr. Wang was the escort captain of the naval fleet's first round-the-world voyage.

Han Yu is both an anti-smuggling police officer and a seaman. If you used to think that a pilot is the captain of the captain, but now you think that the captain of the captain is only the captain who has served as an "escort captain" for the scientific expedition team or the navy!
This is the highest pursuit of a seaman, even a dream.

The more Han Yu thought about it, the more excited he became, he laughed and said, "If you're interested, count me in!"

"Then you should hurry up and study the route and the port conditions along the way."

"No problem. We have a ship management company in Binjiang, even our hometown Linghai. I know many captains, and I can learn from them with an open mind."

"What's more, you can't board the ship as an anti-smuggling police officer, nor can you perform tasks as a reserve officer. You have to think of a way quickly and communicate with your alma mater to see if you can participate in the selection as a training teacher at your alma mater."

"why?"

"We can't bypass the Ministry of Communications. If we find someone ourselves this time, they won't help us next time."

Every time they travel far, they have to ask the Ministry of Communications to arrange an experienced captain as a guide. It is not appropriate to bypass the Ministry of Communications for this trip.

Han Yu understood, and said proudly: "Our alma mater has no problem. I was originally a specially-appointed lecturer of our school. I used to give lectures often, and the school paid me for my lectures!"

"And extra money!"

"uh-huh."

"You're a big boy, by the way, what are you talking about when you go back to school?"

"Start talking about ship fire safety, and then talk about how to deal with PSC inspections, and talk about international conventions."

"Why don't you talk now?"

"I don't have time now, but my wife often talks about it. She was just transferred to the Changzhou Maritime Safety Administration. Before the transfer, she was the head of the security inspection section of our Binjiang Maritime Safety Administration, and she was in charge of PSC inspection."

"Relying on water, you two can do it!" Staff Officer Wu was very envious, and patted his arm: "Brother, this matter is settled like this, and I will report to Team Leader Fang when I get back."

"It's decided, I haven't been abroad for several years, so I just take this opportunity to go out and broaden my horizons."

"Visiting abroad is different from transshipment of big sharks. The overseas Chinese and representatives of Chinese-funded institutions along the way will warmly welcome us, and the ambassadors abroad will go to the pier to greet us in person. We will even hold a deck banquet on the ship and invite local Chinese and overseas Chinese to come on board. It’s exciting to think about the scene, and you won’t regret it.”

"I don't regret transferring the big shark, but you are right, visiting is more interesting than transferring the big shark."

……

PS: Every time the naval formation visits or performs ocean-going missions, there is an "escort captain" arranged by the transportation system.

In the beginning, the old captain with rich sailing experience was really invited to "lead the way". Now the "escort captain" is mainly responsible for communication and coordination with merchant ships. For example, the escort in the Gulf of Aden requires professionals to communicate with merchant ships.

From being afraid to go out without a guide, to undertaking the obligation of a big country to escort merchant ships from various countries, it is a huge progress!
