Chapter 447: Formation set sail
The warm family life was too short, and the day of the expedition had arrived.
On November 15, 2014, the first cold snap of this year hit the whole of China from north to south.
Since the end of the world, it seems that the four seasons are distinct, and the winter is cold and the summer heat has returned to normal.
In the previous life, the north has entered the winter heating, hehe, these memories have become eternal memories in people's hearts.
The clouds and smoke of the past, when to return to the prosperity of the previous life, has become the expectation in people's hearts, and now only struggle may be able to restore the civilization of the previous life.
On the wharf of Zhoushan Military Port, the cold wind was bitter, the morning sun was like blood, the warships whistled and the military flag was fierce.
With the 131 ship as the background, Li Baoqiang stood on the side of the ship and pointed to the bloody Caixia in the east to mobilize all the soldiers who went out!
"Brothers! From today, we are going to step out of the land of China! To conquer the world, our first stop has been to take Japan, and now we are aiming for the Strait of Malacca!
For the living space of our children and grandchildren, for the better future of China, and for our children and grandchildren to no longer be bullied by big and small countries, we must use our blood and our lives to make a big move that has never been seen in the history of China, and seize other people's countries, other people's land, and other people's women! ”
"In front of us is a dangerous ocean, an unknown enemy, and our journey is full of dangers, but I believe that our Chinese Civil Defense Force can sweep the world and win the earth!"
"I believe that as long as the Strait of Malacca is occupied, the world will open its doors to us, and the country will prosper, prosper, and become rich and strong! And you will sit on glory, wealth and glory, wives and concubines, children and grandchildren will become a reality! For the day when we will glorify our ancestors, brothers! Advance! ”
After Li Baoqiang finished speaking, his arm was still pointing to the east, and his eyes passed through all the officers and soldiers, full of hope.
All the officers and soldiers immediately shouted like a tsunami: "Glory and wealth, glory to the ancestors!" Glory and wealth, glory and glory! ”
In the crowd of people who saw him off, Song Yuanchao nodded and smiled, this Li Baoqiang's ability to incite people's hearts is getting stronger and stronger, dry slogans, how can there be a reason for the temptation to be more practical and more motivating!
With an order, all the ships including the 131 ship let out a loud whistle, and the 5,000 soldiers boarded the landing ship and all the crew members were ready to leave the dock.
"Let's go!"
Li Baoqiang issued a high-frequency radio signal to the formation to prepare to leave the dock, and all kinds of warships roared at the same time, and the entire Zhoushan Military Port was filled with black smoke from the chimneys of the ships, and the sky was filled with a deafening whistle.
The 131 ship formation resolutely embarked on the journey with the fire red flag, facing the rising sun in the east and the grinning northwest wind.
……
"Commander, the fleet needs your orders now!" Gu Shuxue, who served as Li Baoqiang's secretary, was reminding Li Baoqiang.
"What order?" Li Baoqiang hugged Gu Shuxue.
"Don't make trouble, it's working time, pay attention to the impact, Tao Zhihan will come in in a while." Gu Shuxue twisted twice and broke free from Li Baoqiang's clutches.
"Now that the formation has passed the Paracel Islands, the temperature is rising, it's time to change into summer clothes."
"Okay, you're really my good secretary River."
Li Baoqiang said with a hippie smile, and was about to take the next step, when the door of the room was pushed open, Tao Zhi rushed in with a sullen head, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he turned around and fled.
"Don't go, what instructions do you have?" Li Baoqiang Shuhe grabbed Tao Zhihan.
"It's nothing, I want to remind you that there are many fighters who have diarrhea and are not well prepared with medicines."
Tao Zhihan is now appointed as the head of the medical department of the formation, although she does not understand medicine, but the little girl learns quickly and enters the role quickly, and the doctors in the formation listen to Tao Zhihan's words.
Li Baoqiang let go of his hand and sighed: "Dizzy, it's only been a few days since I came out, mechanical failure, miscarriage, diarrhea, a lot of things." ”
"In addition, the water must also be controlled, the weather is hot, the water consumption has increased dramatically, and it must be controlled." Gu Shuxue also reminded.
"yes!" Li Baoqiang thought for a while and stood up, "You guys rest, I'll go talk to Konoha." ”
131 ship command room.
Li Baoqiang and Konoha discussed for a while, and Konoha issued several orders as the chief of staff of the formation.
First, the whole army changed into summer clothes; the second is to control water use, each person has a cup of boiled water every day; the third is to pay attention to food safety; Fourth, all military doctors should take immediate action to minimize non-combat attrition.
With the transmission of the order, the whole formation moved.
Konoha has been staying in the command room for the past few days, and has not returned to the room to rest, as the chief of staff of the formation, Konoha knows that the responsibility is heavy, and he does not dare to have a moment of negligence.
On the night of the second day of sailing, the last tugboat was lost, and finally the whole formation had to slow down and wait for the 715 tugboat to catch up.
"Commander, submarine No. 311, No. 312 has reached the edge of the Spratly Islands, sailing on the surface at a speed of twenty knots."
"Yes, these submariners are pretty good." This is good news in the past two days, and Li Baoqiang feels much more comfortable when he hears it.
Konoha nodded: "Yes, after all, these submarines have been sealed for so many years, and there is no damage, my surface ships are much worse, and it is normal to have more than ten failures a day, which is depressing." ”
Li Baoqiang felt the same way, he had no sense of the navy ship unit before, although he was a marine, but after he really came into contact with the surface ship unit, he knew that the navy was not so fun.
Fortunately, Konoha had already prepared and made preparations with both hands.
Spare parts were well prepared, and a large number of mechanical parts from the Zhoushan Military Port Repair Station were transported to the warehouses of various ships for storage.
In addition, the accompanying repair team played a great role in repairing the ship's malfunction.
The members of the emergency repair team are all composed of veteran non-commissioned officers in the ship's machinery and electronics, as well as workers from the Wuchang Shipyard, and live on the No. 715 tugboat.
When a certain ship has a fault, if the ship cannot be eliminated, notify the No. 715 tugboat to come to help, and the repair team will board the ship, and after repairing the fault, return to the No. 715 tugboat.
It's easy to say, but the fact that the ships are helping is very dangerous.
The sea surface of the South China Sea is full of turbulent swells all year round, and when two ships are close to each other, it is necessary to test the captain's ability to handle the ship and consider the transmission and suction effect, and a collision accident will occur if you are not careful.
Fortunately, these ships are all large ships, and the captain's equipment has also undergone Konoha's strict assessment before he can take up his post, and there is no major danger during the gang period.
Li Baoqiang personally experienced the process of emergency repairs at sea, and only then did he deeply understand the difficulties encountered by the navy ships during their voyages, and he had a further understanding of that old saying.
Ten years of the Army, a hundred years of the Navy.
It is indeed not an easy task to build a strong navy, and even with advanced warships and experienced naval personnel, it is not easy to engage in naval construction.
"Report!" The fighters on duty on the HF radio reported loudly.
"Speak!" Konoha came out of the chart room, followed by Li Baoqiang.
"Report the Chief of Staff of the Formation, Project 312 submarine reports that there are armed fishing boats near Chigua Reef, which carried out shelling of submarines sailing on the surface! Submarine Project 312 asked for instructions on what to do next. ”
"What? Armed fishing boats? Shelling? Who *** so daring? ”
Li Baoqiang and Konoha asked in unison.
