On January 5, the year 100 of the new calendar, Bai Zhizhan came to the Puzhou Shipyard on the third day.

I was busy for two days, and it was not until last evening that the most important matter, that is, the maintenance of the "Hengjiang", was decided.

Because the port was closer to Puzhou, the local fleet had made arrangements and the floating dock could arrive early, so the "Yokoe" was able to enter the floating dock on the day of arrival. As for when it can be repaired, it depends on the damage and whether it needs to be repaired to increase the renovation project.

All in all, the shipyard will do its best to try to repair the "Yokoe" as soon as possible.

In addition, based on the preliminary inspection report sent by the Southern Fleet, the shipyard engineers roughly estimated that the repair time could be controlled within a month. There is no way to know for sure, because the main structure of the "Yokoe" has not been fully inspected, and it is impossible to confirm whether the load-bearing parts such as the keel were damaged in the battle, and whether they can be repaired in a normal way, or whether they must be disassembled and rebuilt.

The shipyard arranged an office location for Bai Zhizhan, which was next door to the Ship Design Institute.

According to Liu Changxun's arrangement, the personnel of the headquarters of the First Air Task Force would arrive with the "Hengjiang", so Bai Zhizhan did not ask the shipyard to arrange management personnel, but only asked for a few cleaning workers who were responsible for cleaning, as well as indispensable security guards.

After finishing the things that should be busy, Bai Zhizhan slept again.

In order to avoid waking up too early, he also went to the waiter at the hotel to change a pair of thick curtains.

Before the arrival of the "Yokoe", the only thing to do was to do a routine inspection on January 8, when the floating dock arrived.

Bai Zhizhan didn't have any relatives in Puzhou, so he felt that he could take advantage of the free time in the past two days to visit Zhao Yu and eat a hometown-style meal by the way. As for He Pengfei, Bai Zhizhan really didn't want to see the strangeness, after all, the four rounds of heavy bombardment are the army's dishes.

The key is that he has already offended the He family by sneaking out of the imperial capital this time.

Although He Pengfei is not very different from other people in the He family, his relationship with He Yongxing is too close, and it is inevitable that there will be mustard because of this. You must know that as soon as Bai Zhizhan left like this, He Yongxing was equivalent to missing an arm, and when he was fighting with Liu Changxun, he was even more powerless.

When the turmoil passes, let's find a chance to talk to He Pengfei.

slept until noon, and Bai Zhizhan got up.

He went to the restaurant for lunch before taking the car to the office.

In order to make it convenient for Bai Zhizhan to travel, the shipyard specially arranged a car and a driver, and let the driver stay in the hotel and be on call 24 hours a day.

It must be admitted that in terms of PR, the shipyard did a very good job.

It is not far from the hotel to the Ship Design Institute, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk, and the office location arranged by the shipyard for Bai Zhizhan is next door to the Ship Design Institute.

Of course, if you have a car to sit on, you don't have to walk, after all, it's winter.

Even though Puzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River and is still on the edge of the Xuhai Sea, it is also very cold in winter, and January is still the coldest time of the year.

Crucially, there is no such thing as "heating" in the South.

It is precisely because of this that many northerners are not very accustomed to it when they go to the south.

It's just that Bai Zhizhan is a southerner, and the winter in Yuzhou is not warmer than the winter in Puzhou, and he has been used to wearing cotton coats at home since he was a child.

Coming to the outside of the building, before he got out of the car, Bai Zhizhan noticed that an officer wearing a green military coat over his navy autumn coat was theorizing with the security guard at the gate. The security guard's expression was obviously a little excited, as if he was arguing, and the officer's hand was a little big.

What happened?

"I don't have to go in, you just do me a favor and make a phone call. If you delay a big event, you can't afford to delay the military aircraft! ”

"I said, we don't have a phone, I don't know where to call. You're still messing around here, I'm going to call someone. ”

The security guard is a middle-aged uncle, but he is just a civilian, and he is obviously a little lacking in confidence in front of the officers.

"You ...... man"

Bai Zhizhan had already walked to the door, and when the young man heard the footsteps, he immediately turned around.

He looked a little flustered, probably frightened by the words of the security guard.

After recognizing it, Bai Zhizhan immediately tightened his brows.

At first, he had already heard Zhou Yongtao's voice, but he thought it was unlikely, the key was that he was dressed, and he didn't look like a naval officer at all.

Which naval officer would wear the Army's "Prairie Green" coat?

The Navy also has overcoats, but they are sky blue, and the workmanship is more elaborate, even the buttons are gilded in golden, not as rustic as the Army's.

It's just that Bai Zhizhan didn't recognize the wrong person, this pitiful-looking guy is Zhou Yongtao.

After seeing Bai Zhizhan, Zhou Yongtao was also stunned. When Bai Zhizhan looked up and down, he only smiled reluctantly and did not explain.

"Why are you here?"

"General Bai, it's a long story, it's ...... here"

"Go in and say. Looks like you haven't had lunch yet, have you? ”

"I didn't eat breakfast."

Seeing that Bai Zhizhan knew this young officer, and the relationship was quite good, the security uncle dared to delay and immediately opened the door.

On the way to the office, Bai Zhizhan instructed the driver to go back to the hotel to get a set meal, and the meals were increased.

Zhou Yongtao is back, it seems that he still rushed to Puzhou overnight, there must be something very important.

The so-called office is actually a room separated by wooden planks in the factory, and there is no ceiling on it, so there is no way to insulate it.

This was originally a temporary office space, so the conditions were very simple.

Fortunately, except for Bai Zhizhan and Zhou Yongtao, the closest person was the security guard outside the gate.

"Drink some water."

"General White......

"Don't rush, speak slowly." Bai Zhizhan handed the water cup to Zhou Yongtao, then pulled a stool over and sat down opposite Zhou Yongtao.

After drinking a few sips of water, Zhou Yongtao told the story of coming to Puzhou.

In fact, after returning to Matsukasu Port, he first took a plane to the imperial capital. When he arrived at the naval headquarters, he learned from Li Yunxiang that Bai Zhizhan had left the imperial capital and went to the Puzhou shipyard. Because Li Yunxiang didn't know Bai Zhizhan's current situation, he just told Zhou Yongtao that Bai Zhizhan was in charge of the maintenance work of the "Hengjiang", and after going to the shipyard, he first went to the Ship Design Institute to find Zhao Yu.

In addition, Li Yunxiang arranged a plane for him to fly to Puzhou and asked him to leave for Puzhou overnight.

Who would have thought that Zhao Yu didn't go to work today.

However, the security guard of the design institute told him that the personnel who maintained the "Yokoe" were working in the building next door.

That's why he came to the outside of the building and got into an argument with the security guards.

Actually, the security guard didn't do anything wrong, after all, his job was just to guard the gate, not to mention contacting Bai Zhizhan, he had met Bai Zhizhan a few times.

He knows Bai Zhizhan, but Bai Zhizhan doesn't know him.

In addition, this office will not be put into use until after the arrival of the "Hengjiang", and it is now only an empty building.

As for the army green coat, it was Zhou Yongtao who asked for it from an airport staff member when he arrived in the imperial capital.

There was no need to wear an overcoat on the "Imperial Capital", and he was in too much hurry when he left the "Imperial Capital", and Zhou Yongtao did not bring much luggage.

If he hadn't had it, he would have frozen to death last night.
