Chapter 11 Untie the rope and meet the enemy at full speed
Receiving instructions from the lighthouse, the fleet slowed down, and the flagship stopped, lowering the gangway to allow the people on the fishing boat to board the ship.
When Lin Wanjing appeared in front of Liu Jin led by the first mate, Liu Jin was stunned for a while and couldn't speak, and only after a while did she quickly step forward, she was soaked in the wind, rain and sea water, and asked worriedly: "Why are you here?" ”
He never thought that one day, Lin Wanjing would appear in front of her in such an embarrassed manner, without even bringing an entourage, and appeared in front of him in a hurry in the wind and rain, hugging her who couldn't help but tremble, and then remembering the word "rescue" he had just received, there were thousands of terrible conjectures in his mind for a while, but the only thing that was certain was that no matter who dared to take advantage of his absence to force Wanjing to the point in front of him, he would never stop, and he would definitely make that person pay the price.
"Wanjing, what's wrong, you tell me." He soothed her softly, anger suppressed in his low voice. So he heard Lin Wanjing say in a trembling voice:
"Return, you can't go."
"Why?" Liu Jin was puzzled, looked down at her, frowned, and said, "The storm is just around the corner, and there is no room for any mistakes at this moment." ”
"Yunrou, there are tens of thousands of people in the fishing port, do you want to abandon them?"
Liu Jin couldn't cry or laugh for a while, and the desperate survival dramas that he made up just now seemed to be definitely thinking too much about himself.
The heart that she was holding on to was put down, but thinking about it, she went to sea against the storm and rain regardless of her own safety for this matter, but she couldn't help but be annoyed:
"The wind and waves are so strong, you came to me alone, just for this matter? Don't you think about yourself? ”
Seeing that Lin Wanjing didn't answer, she just clinged to his arms and couldn't keep trembling, and she couldn't open her mouth even if the heavy words came to her mouth, so she sighed and explained: "Wanjing, this is not a joke, there are thousands of people in this fleet, and I must be responsible for them!" At this time, you should know which is more important. ”
"I know, but if you don't go back, the fishing port is in danger!"
"That's not something I can control. If I could, I would have wanted to sit idly by! Liu Jin said this as he gave the order to the captain to set sail.
"Wait!" Lin Wanjing hurriedly stepped forward and held down the radio and turned to Liu Jin, "Why does your fleet exist?" If you can't save your people, what's the point of retreating with your whole body? Moreover, the fishing port has been the back gate of Luzhou since ancient times, and if the fishing port falls, Luzhou will have endless troubles. Now there, there are tens of thousands of people waiting for you to go back and help them, if you really abandon them and lose the hearts of the people, it will be more terrible than the capsizing of the fleet! ”
The command room fell silent for a while, and Liu Jin wavered.
The retreat in this storm was a coincidence - because of the need for a cruising line, the fleet used the fishing port as a supply point and assembled outside the fishing port. And the evacuation in the storm was not a temporary decision made because of the fear of damage to the fleet, but it was time to return to the military port, and the storm was just coming.
If it had been in the past, he would have ordered the fleet to stand by, he knew that this menacing storm would not last long, and he knew that with the tonnage of the fleet, he could withstand this natural disaster with the boatmen of the fishing port.
But, who knows how long this storm will rage? If there is a delay here, what will happen to the military port? The Japanese fleet has been wandering in the open sea, and if they take advantage of the air defense of the military port to sneak attack, the fleet will rush to the aid at full speed, and it will take nearly four hours to sail, but I am afraid that the military port will have already fallen by the time they arrive, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
The situation is urgent, the situation is turbulent, and the fleet cannot tolerate any mistakes at the moment, and the slightest negligence will fall short, and there will be no recovery.
The siren sounded, the storm was closer, the surging waves were crashing against the hull, it was difficult to stand firm even on the flagship, Lin Wanjing felt a dull pain in her abdomen again, this feeling accompanied her all the way, and it was even more obvious at the moment, because of the pain, her body trembled even more, Liu Jin felt it, so she subconsciously hugged her tighter, she involuntarily grabbed his shirt, seemed to have exhausted her strength, and said:
"Yunrou, is it okay to go back with me, you know this gamble, we can win."
And the captain must have seen Liu Jin's vacillation, and finally said:
"Young marshal, please make the decision you think is right, no matter what you decide, brother will follow you!"
Finally, Lin Wanjing heard Liu Jin exhale a long breath and calmly ordered:
"Return immediately. Inform all ships that those who are willing to return to the fishing port with the flagship to resist the wind should immediately turn around. The rest of the ships returned to the military port as originally planned, and were temporarily handed over to the commander of the Thorn Bird Captain Lu Canghan. The radio called on all cargo ships near the fishing port, regardless of the specifications, who were willing to support the wind resistance, to come to the fishing port immediately and stand by. ”
"Yes!" On the one hand, the captain of the ship accepted Liu Jin's order, and on the other hand, he sent a signal corps to send the order to other ships.
The military order was issued, and the ships responded with whistles, and in the sound of whistles that resounded across the sea, all 14 ships of the Luzhou fleet began to reverse and turn, and followed the flagship back to Luzhou Fishing Port.
"Yun Shuai, all members of the Lugang Patrol Fleet have returned, and none of them have returned to port." The captain returned, he raised his eyes, but at a glance he saw Lin Wanjing's slightly pale face, so his words stagnated for a moment, and then the conversation changed: "The waves of the tower wind are too big, young marshal, you settle your wife first, and I will arrange it here." ”
Liu Jin nodded, hugged Lin Wanjing back to the office, and as soon as she settled her on the sofa, the first mate followed closely to report:
"Young marshal, we have helpers."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another whistle in the distance, so he hurried to the deck, and could vaguely see a fleet of ships passing through the rain curtain and heading at full speed towards the fishing port, and there were hundreds of large and small freighters.
As the fleet approached, the lead freighter turned on the announcement to identify itself to the fleet:
"I am the ocean-going freighter Horus of Luzhou Hengguang Far East Trading Company, leading the nine cargo ships of Hengguang in Hong Kong and 88 freighters of friendly companies to respond to the call of the Luzhou fleet and come to support the fishing port to fight the waves!"
When the typhoon landed in the fishing port with a devastating force, the huge fleet of ships had already set up a battle and was ready to fight - the Xunlong led the large ocean-going freighters at the front of the ship formation to fight the wind and waves at full speed, the small and medium-sized freighters were in the center of the formation, the huge iron anchor sank to the bottom of the sea, fixed the fishing boats around the freighters, and displayed the remaining destroyers and frigates closest to the coast to prevent the overturned ships from being swept up by the waves and causing greater casualties.
When Liu Jin confirmed the details of the defense and returned to the office, he saw Lin Wanjing curled up in the sofa, as if she had fallen asleep, but when he approached, he saw her closed eyes and frowns, and her face was pale, and he knew that she was not asleep at all. He called her, but she didn't reply, just bit her lip hard, and exhaled in confusion, and then asked where it hurt, but she fell into a coma again.
The storm raged outside the cabin, and he could not call the military doctor at this time, he could only hold her tightly in his arms, and she seemed to have reached a piece of driftwood as if a drowning person had finally reached a piece of driftwood, and her white fingers gripped his arm so tightly that it seemed to dig her nails into the flesh.
The familiar scene suddenly flashed in his mind, vaguely the time when she blocked the bullet for him, and she was also so painful at that time, holding him tightly, as if she let go of her hand a little, and she couldn't hold him anymore.
Fierce winds swept up the deck, and salty waters flowed through the cabins in the rocking arc of the ship's hull, sparing no cabins. Perhaps stimulated by the environment, Lin Wanjing woke up from a coma, and immediately felt the pain in her lower abdomen, and couldn't help but make a sound, so she heard Liu Jin anxiously ask her where the pain was, and she didn't know how to describe it, just gasped and put his palm on her lower abdomen, and then lost consciousness again. Liu Jin's heart sank, and he uncovered the blanket covering her, but saw that the rain-soaked clothes on her body were almost dry, only the hem of the cheongsam was still wet with water marks......
The storm came and went as fast as expected. But Liu Jin felt that he had endured as if he had suffered for centuries in the overwhelming fear. When the wind subsided, the military doctor was led to the office by the first mate, and the pool of blood under Lin Wanjing's body was already spreading, and along the edge of the sofa, a drop fell on the wooden barn.
The military doctor accompanying the ship is also a man with five big and three rough, even if he recognized the illness at a glance, he didn't know how to speak, he hesitated for a long time, and finally said:
"Young marshal, Madame must be a miscarriage."
Liu Jin had already guessed this diagnosis, but he just held on to a glimmer of hope, expecting that he was wrong, and now that he said it from the mouth of the military doctor, there was indeed no possibility of escape.
Seeing that Liu Jin was silent, the military doctor said again: "I'm afraid it's not good if it drags on like this, and I have to operate immediately." ”
"Then hurry up and arrange it!"
"Me?" When the military doctor heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, "I can't do it, I can't do it." A woman's miscarriage is not child's play, life is at stake, it is better than taking a shrapnel to sew a wound or something, I have no experience in this area, I can't do it. Besides, the ship's equipment is rudimentary, so it's terrible if you get infected or something. The safest way is to send them back to a hospital on land......"
Liu Jin couldn't help but be annoyed when he heard this, if he was sent to the hospital when the storm subsided, where would he waste his words with him here?
Seeing Liu Jin's angry face, the first mate hurriedly said, "Young marshal, Madame's condition is critical, and she really can't delay it any longer." I immediately radioed to the hospital and asked them to send a car to the port to pick them up. ”
The waters of the fishing port are shallow and shallow, and there are no conditions for large ships to dock, and when the storm passes, the underwater situation is extremely unstable, and warships will face a huge risk of running aground when they dock, but at the moment he can no longer think of a better way than to dock.
Just as he was about to give the order, the captain hurriedly reported:
"Young Marshal, the tower has observed an unknown fleet approaching ahead."
Liu Jin walked quickly to the deck, took the binoculars and looked in the direction pointed by the captain, but saw an unpainted fleet coming in the wind and waves, and he could vaguely see that the ship's guns were slowly adjusting their direction, pointing to the fishing port.
This group of crazy wolves did not hesitate to risk the capsizing of the ship, trying to sneak attack the fishing port under the cover of wind and rain!
Liu Jin cursed in a low voice in his heart, handed the telescope to the captain, and said:
"All hands are in place and ready to fight."
The captain knew that the situation was tense and did not dare to delay, so he turned around and returned to the command room.
A moment later, the alarm sounded, and the crew members who were sheltered in the cabin gathered on the deck, and the military boots stepped on the deck to make a deafening sound, that is, this slightly chaotic hustle and bustle, so that Lin Wanjing's consciousness recovered for a moment.
"Yun Rou ......" she called him softly, extremely thin, but it was very clear to him, so he hurried back to her, put her cold hand in the palm of his hand, and before he could speak, he heard her say again: "The one who sent me, come to him." ”
Liu Jin understood the meaning of her words and said firmly: "I'll send you back." ”
"No! You've got to be here! You are the commander in chief, and you must be with the fleet. Lin Wanjing gasped, trying to adjust the discomfort caused by the pain, and then tried to raise a smile and said, "I'll wait for you to come back." ”
The sudden sound of engines sounded on the sea, and the fishing boat sped away towards the shore in the wind and rain, and soon there was only a black spot that was difficult to discern, and the captain came to report that the crews of the ships had been assembled, and forced him to move his concerned gaze back to the direction of the enemy ship, and the distance between the two sides was already very close, and the outlines of the gray beasts in the rain could be seen closely.
"Disconnect the rope and meet the enemy at full speed."
