Chapter 165: A Lighthouse in the Storm

After some searching, Muto Dainori's face was not good.

"Captain, to the southwest, about 20 nautical miles, is Huayang Reef in Huaguo."

Despite knowing the location of the island, Shigechi Mishima was not happy in the slightest, because the GPS positioning system was now jammed and difficult to use.

Follow the navigation, it is estimated to be cool.

What to do! What to do...... Mishima's brain was blank.

The storm on the surface of the sea grew more and more frenzied, and the torrential rain hit the windshield of the cabin like the drumbeat of heavy metal.

The Sapphire Princess was struggling to sail in the wind and waves, when suddenly a huge wave hit the hull of the ship, and the salty sea water poured into the cabin.

"Help!"

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Oh buy karma!"

The passengers were at a loss, some were sobbing quietly, some were desperately making calls with their mobile phones, and some were shivering and curled up in the corner.

Sailors are also scrambling to drain the water, and if the water is not drained in time, the consequences can be very serious.

The vast majority of passengers who made calls were unable to get through because the satellite phones were very seriously disrupted during the typhoon.

In addition, in order to prevent the satellite antenna of the Sapphire Princess from being broken by the strong wind, the satellite communication antenna had to be put away.

The most troublesome part of satellite communication is that it must be aimed at the satellite through the antenna, and it is necessary to ensure that there is no bad rain and snow.

Now the Sapphire Princess is not able to release antennas to enhance the signal, and it just happened to encounter a typhoon day.

The anxious crowd, like ants on a hot pot, was so anxious that many people were afraid and angry, and they all had the rhythm of smashing their mobile phones.

However, not everyone can't get through, for example, Hu Yang from Shanghai made it very easy to get through.

"Oh buy karma! Sir, you can get through on the phone."

Hu Yang, who was holding the seat handle with one hand and talking on the phone with the other, noticed the foreign beard next to him.

"Uh...... Yes. After Hu Yang replied, he continued to call his family in Shanghai, and now he regretted traveling.

There were also six Chinese citizens in the cabin, and two of them had terahertz mobile phones, and they hurriedly took out their mobile phones to make domestic calls.

Even the illness went to the doctor indiscriminately and called the phone number of the fire department.

But this time, they were blind and touched the dead mouse, because the thinking system has been upgraded again in 15 years.

For emergency calls made in foreign countries or remote areas, the thinking system will transfer the emergency calls to the nearest Chinese embassy or government unit according to the principle of proximity.

"Hey! Hello! This is the Huayang Reef Marine Department of Sansha City, Huaguo, how can I help you"

"Sansha City Marine Department" Cai Boling was stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed: "Thank God, we ......" Cai Boling was so anxious that he spoke a little nonsense.

……

In the three defense centers of the Marine Department on Huayang Reef, the answering officer quickly took notes while talking, although Cai Boling on the other side said very confusedly, but the answering officer still asked the key elements.

Gao Yuan and Zhang Wei on the side also listened while looking at the notes of the answerer, and from the clues, they knew that there was a cruise ship called Sapphire Princess nearby, which was stranded in the hinterland of the South China Sea due to a malfunction.

"Activation, satellite positioning system." Zhang Wei commanded.

"Yes."

On the big screen, on the satellite cloud map around Huayang Reef, a red point of light is about 19 nautical miles northeast of Huayang Reef.

"Activate the high-power radio and send a message to the Sapphire Princess."

"Roger."

Ocean-going ships have their own medium and high frequency radio MH/HF channels, which are small radio stations themselves, which are used as high-power radios to listen to the broadcasts of other stations, such as MF9500Hze Voice of China.

However, the high-frequency radio station on Huayang Reef can transmit radio waves on all channels, and they don't know what frequency the high-frequency radio on the Sapphire Princess uses, so they can only transmit it in one go.

……

Sapphire Princess.

Mishima Shigechi could only rely on his ancient nautical knowledge, very shallow nautical knowledge, to steer the cruise ship in a general direction.

Mankind's technology is advancing, and some things are lost, thanks to the satellites and radio communications of modern society, who will learn the ancient knowledge of navigation.

Even if you have studied and have not used it for a long time, it is very difficult to use this ancient knowledge and use it correctly in an emergency.

If nothing else, according to the current direction of the Sapphire Princess, it will deviate from Huayang Reef by an angle, and it is very likely to pass by.

Suddenly, the third mate Yamanaka Gin, who was in charge of communication, was stunned, and a choppy sound came from his earphones.

This is Sansha City, Huaguo...... Huayang Reef Marine Department...... Sapphire Princess...... Please adjust the channel to ......

Yamanaka quickly adjusted the radio station to the designated channel, and after the sound of the radio waves of the whole channel was played three times in a row, Huayang Reef was also adjusted to the designated channel.

Sapphire Princess, among your passengers is a Chinese passenger Cai Boling, who carries a terahertz mobile phone, and you can use the terahertz mobile phone to communicate directly with Huayang Reef......

This time the sound was very clear, and it was repeated three more times.

"Captain, ...... just now," Yamanaka Silver made a long story short and explained the matter.

Mishima Shigechi immediately decided: "Immediately invite that Chinese passenger over, quickly!" ”

"Hey."

Cai Boling, who was confused, was brought into the cockpit, only to know that the other party needed his own mobile phone for positioning and calling.

Yamanaka took the mobile phone and turned on the positioning system, the real-time location of the Sapphire Princess, as well as the surrounding islands and reefs, clearly appeared on the mobile phone.

"Captain, we've strayed from course."

After some maneuvering, the Sapphire Princess finally corrected its sailing direction, and Mishima's back was soaked with cold sweat.

Through Cai Boling's mobile phone, the Sapphire Princess navigated its location while contacting Huayang Reef.

In the midst of the storm, they sailed hard for more than an hour, and finally saw the lighthouse standing in the storm.

Mishima and the others have never seen how dazzling the light is, and all the neon lights in the world are not as brilliant as this lighthouse.

When the Sapphire Princess approached the shelter of Huayang Reef, they realized that it was a large shelter, not a simple dock at all.

"Immediately, according to the command of the Chinese people, prepare to anchor." Mishima shouted. 78 Chinese first release www.7* m.7*

"Hey!"

The more critical the moment, the more urgent it is, otherwise the ship will hit the reef or the seawall or wharf, and it will really fall short.

After passing through the gates of the Haven, the Sapphire Princess moved cautiously for almost twenty minutes before it was able to moor in the berth.

As the ropes were tied to the pillars, the Sapphire Princess finally stabilized.

Mishima sat down, gasping for air, and cheers could be heard from inside the cabin.

A portion of the soldiers stationed at Huayang Reef were dispatched to assist the passengers and crew of the Sapphire Princess in disembarking.

The storm brought by the typhoon became more and more intense, and the passengers did not dare to stay on the ship, and were arranged into emergency shelters one by one.

Mishima bowed excitedly to Zhang Wei and the others: "Thank you very much." ”

"Captain Mishima, you arrange for sailors to manage the passengers, don't have too many people stationed on the ship, and wait for the typhoon to pass." Zhang Wei replied lightly.

"Thank you very much, we will definitely cooperate." Mishima bowed respectfully again.
