"It's finally done, it's not easy!"
Looking at the white sky, Yang Jianhua took a deep breath.
If the plan cannot keep up with changes, no matter how precise the plan is, it will encounter problems of one kind or another when it is implemented.
Just like when training.
To keep it secret, the hoisting training was conducted in Qinghai Lake in the west.
Although Qinghai Lake is vast and is the largest lake in the mainland, it is no more than a small pond compared with the sea.
The wind and waves in the sea at night are much more powerful than those in Qinghai Lake. There is no comparison.
Because the wind and waves were so strong, even though Gong Wei and others had been trained for more than a year, their level of crane operation was higher than that of veteran drivers. The speed of hoisting containers was about the same as building blocks.顡
When it came time to actually take action, the hoisting speed was still much slower.
The hoisting work, which was originally planned to be completed at 3 a.m., was almost completed at 6 a.m., nearly three hours later than planned.
Fortunately, Lei Weidong took precautions and arranged for two ships to come over. He could move the bow left and right and transfer the containers to the two ships at the same time.
If it were one ship, even if it was busy until dawn, it would be impossible to transfer all the containers containing machine tools to a nearby ship. In that case, the possibility of being discovered would be more than 80% or even 90%.
"Sister Yang, please hurry up and leave. If you are later, you will be easily discovered." Looking at the night sky that was about to dawn, Gong Wei urged Yang Jianhua and others to leave as soon as possible.
"Gong Wei, Li Hu, I'll trouble you next. I hope you can come back safely." Looking at Gong Wei and Li Hu wearing life jackets, Yang Jianhua's voice was choked with sobs.
In order to safely transport the machine tools back to the country.顡
It is necessary to set up a maze at sea, and the later Siemens discovers it, the better.
to this end!
After Yang Jianhua and others evacuate, they must leave people on the ship and drive the cargo ship to the depths of the ocean to pretend that it sank naturally due to an accident.
It was Gong Wei and Li Hu who performed this task. Although preparations were made, they could escape in a lifeboat before the cargo ship sank.
But the sea is the sea. Far from the coast, it is very difficult to escape only by relying on a lifeboat. It can be said that there is a narrow escape from death.
But for the country, no matter how difficult the task is, someone still needs to complete it.
"Sister Yang, don't worry. I, Gong Wei, have a tough life. If I were to die easily, I would have died in the previous undercover operation. This time, Li Hu and I will definitely return safely."
Knowing that time waits for no one, Gong Wei and Li Hu sent Yang Jianhua, Li Jie and others away with a smile.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Accompanied by the whistle of the freighter, the huge mechanical arm rose, and the two freighters slowly separated.
"salute!"
Seeing Gong Wei and Li Hu driving the freighter away, Yang Jianhua, Li Jie and others stood at attention and saluted to see off their comrades.
"The ceremony is over!"
Watching the freighter slowly go away against the rising sun, Yang Jianhua turned around and ordered, "
"Turn on the jamming device and block all suspicious signals. Li Jie, you lead Team A to take charge of the crane in the front, Wang Jianjun, lead Team B to take charge of the middle one, and Zhang Zhen, lead Team C to take charge of the rear one. I'll give you forty minutes to push the crane into the sea. go.
The rest of the personnel are in place, restoring the cargo ship to its normal appearance in the shortest possible time, and then sailing eastward at the fastest speed. We must rendezvous with the fleet in the shortest possible time and cannot waste the time that Gong Wei and Li Hu bought for us. "
"yes!"
Li Jie, Wang Jianjun and others responded loudly.
Getting the machine tool does not mean that the action has been completed. This place is tens of thousands of kilometers away from China. The machine tool must be returned to the country safely for the action to be considered complete.
-------
"How far is the XX reef?" Looking at the slowly rising sun outside the window, Li Hu lit two cigarettes, one for himself and one for Gong Wei.顡
"About sixty nautical miles. If everything goes well, we can arrive in a little more than two hours." Gong Wei took a deep puff of the cigarette and responded with a smile while sailing the ship. "
"There are still more than two hours. I hope there will be no accidents during this period." Looking at Gong Wei, who was expressionless and showed no trace of panic on his face, Li Hu exhaled a puff of smoke and asked.
"Brother Gong, aren't you afraid?"
"Be afraid, what's the use of being afraid at this time." Gong Wei shook his head and replied naturally: "If I were afraid of this little thing, I would have died long ago when I was an undercover agent.
Two hours later, it was just a shipwreck, but we were not necessarily dead. We sitting in the lifeboat still had a chance to escape.
Unlike when you were an undercover agent, facing murderous criminals who would kill you if you made the wrong move, the difficulties you faced now were child's play. "
"That's right. Compared with people, the sea is much simpler. You only need to face it head-on, and you don't have to worry about being stabbed in the back." Thinking of those comrades who died in front of him, Li Hu nodded and asked:顡
"Brother Gong, when you were out on a mission, didn't you think about your sister-in-law and your children?"
"I've thought about it, but why haven't I thought about it, but everyone has a small family. For this, everyone has to give up my small family." When talking about his wife and children, Gong Wei sighed heavily.
"My wife is sick. When I was on a mission, her illness was what I worried about most. Unfortunately, my family was too poor to take her to a big hospital for medical treatment.
Fortunately, I met Mr. Lei when I was undercover in Xiangjiang.
It was his act of righteousness that spent money to treat my wife's illness, otherwise she would have passed away two years ago. This time, I took the initiative to undertake the task of treating her illness.
Not only because of the country, but also to repay Mr. Lei's kindness to our family. He not only spent money to treat my wife's illness, arranged for my children to go to school, but also arranged for my wife to join the Eastern Group.
Because I knew that my wife was in poor health, I specially arranged for a relaxing job like sitting in an office. Not to mention, I earned more than those college students, which gave me no worries at all.顡
If I die in this operation.
Not only will the country never forget me, Mr. Lei will also never forget me. Both my wife and my children will be well taken care of. "
"Mr. Lei is indeed a good man." Li Hu couldn't help but nod when he mentioned Lei Weidong, "Except for being lustful and having dozens of wives, he is almost like a saint in other aspects.
Even though he has a lot of money, he is the richest man in Hong Kong and even Asia.
But Mr. Lei doesn’t value money at all and is very happy to do charity.
After hearing from Sister Yang that Mr. Lei knew that many disabled soldiers or families of martyrs in the self-defense counterattack were living in poverty, he spent hundreds of millions of dollars to establish a foundation to specifically help veterans and families of martyrs.
Not only does it provide medical treatment to everyone, but it also teaches them how to live a healthy life. In just a few years, it has spent more than one billion and helped hundreds of thousands of people.顡
"Mr. Lei is really a good person who saved hundreds of thousands of people." After hearing that Lei Weidong saved not only himself, but also people in units of 100,000, Gong Wei gave Lei Weidong a good person card.
"Yes, Lei is always a good person. I hope I will have the opportunity to repay his kindness in the future." Li Hu nodded and said slowly.
"Mr. Lei also helped you?" Gong Wei asked.
"He didn't help me, but he helped my family!" Li Hu nodded, "My brother is a **** and lost an arm in the war. Although the country helped arrange work and let him go to his hometown. I work as the head of the security department in my family.
But you also know that the market has been bad in recent years, and many factories have been unable to pay wages. My brother's factory also pays wages only once every three months, forcing my brother, the head of the security department, to ride a tricycle when he is off work to support himself and his family. .
Fortunately, Mr. Lei is here!
The Eastern Group merged my brother's factory and fired a large number of incompetent and corrupt leaders. This year alone, the factory turned a profit and the workers' income doubled compared to before. Many older girls began to pursue the young men in the factory. .顡
"This light keeps flashing, is there a call coming in?" While chatting, the red light on the console suddenly flashed on, and Li Hu asked.
"It should be a call from the shipping company. Yesterday we were parked in place for seven or eight hours, and now we are off course again.
The line is fifty nautical miles away. Gui Lao must have noticed it and called to inquire about the situation.
"Do you want to answer this call? If you don't answer, will your secret be revealed?"
"If you don't answer, you will only be suspected. If you answer, the secret will be revealed. It's better to remain in the dark so that the other party doesn't know what's going on, and you can buy time."
Gong Wei shook his head, "As long as the shipping company suspects us, we still have hope of escaping, but if Siemens finds out, it will be troublesome.
When European and American countries deal with emergency matters, if the news is not confirmed but just suspicion, they will not be much faster than us. By the time they feel something is wrong and send helicopters to check, we will have already hit the XX reef.
The sea depth in that area is more than three thousand meters, and the sea water will submerge all traces.顡
"Then don't accept it, Brother Gong. If we can go back alive this time, if you want to treat me to a drink, let's make a deal first. I will definitely not be happy without roasted lamb legs and Wuliangye."
"Don't worry, if I can go back, I will definitely treat you to a drink. Drink good wine, authentic Louis XIII. When I left Xiangjiang, Mr. Lei gave me two bottles so that you can have a taste of foreign wine."
"Forget it about Louis XIII. I'm not used to drinking foreign wine. Baijiu is still strong enough. It would be great if it could match Maotai. I have never drunk Maotai even once in my life."
"Then let's drink Maotai. Although I don't have it at home, the director's family does. They brought two bottles back when he went to the southwest for inspection more than ten years ago. I have never been willing to drink it, saying that I want to pass it down as a family heirloom.
After we got back, we took it out and tasted the national wine. Gong Wei laughed loudly.
"Okay, more than ten years old Moutai, I must try it when I go back." Li Hu laughed out loud when he heard that there was more than ten years old Moutai available for drinking.
While the two were chatting, the freighter headed straight for the XX reef. Finally, with a loud noise, the freighter and the reef were tightly packed together. The strong impact directly caused Li Hu and Gong Wei to fall to the deck.顡
"The impact was so dreamy, even the glass was cracked." Li Hu got up from the deck and saw that the cockpit glass had turned into spider webs. Li Hu wiped the blood at the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and sighed:
"Can the freighter still move?"
"You can still move!"
Gong Wei adjusted the propeller and turned it upside down, which produced a huge repulsive force. Amidst the unpleasant sound of metal cracking, the freighter gradually broke away from the XX reef.
"How about trying it again? It's not very big and it will take a long time to sink." Looking at the deflated bow, Li Hu suggested.
"Just a head-on collision won't work. Even if it sinks, it will take a long time." Gong Wei shook his head and said, "The side of the freighter must be cut open."
Cargo ships, especially 100,000-ton ocean-going cargo ships, will not sink easily just by collision, because when the cargo ship is built, the bow and stern will be equipped with thicker steel plates, and there will also be a strict sealed cabin design. .顡
In the event of a collision, it is likely that the bow of the ship will be damaged. As long as it does not move, it will generally not sink.
Take the collision between a non-concierge cargo ship and the USS Fitzgerald destroyer as an example.
The Fitzgerald is a member of the old American Aegis destroyer, with a total length of 154 meters and a displacement of more than 8,000 tons. It is the most advanced warship in the world.
The non-concierge cargo ship that collided with it was larger, with a total length of about 222.6 meters and a full load displacement of 29,000 tons.
In terms of combat effectiveness, Fitzgerald can send a non-concierge cargo ship to the bottom of the sea with one missile.
But when the ship collided, the non-concierge cargo ship suffered a big loss.
Because it was the cargo ship's hardest bow that hit the Fitzgerald's waist.顡
As a result, Fitzgerald not only found that the bulwarks and the protruding parts above collapsed, but also seven old American soldiers were missing.
Not only was there no report of casualties on the cargo ship, but the damage was also very small, that is, the bow was a bit deflated, which shows how hard the bow is and is not afraid of impact at all.
As for the Titanic hitting an iceberg and sinking.
It was because the captain issued the wrong order when he discovered the iceberg and asked the ship to turn left, hoping to avoid the iceberg.
result!
When the Titanic turned left, an iceberg opened a large hole of more than 100 meters. This was much more damaging than a head-on collision. As a result, the Titanic sank in just two hours, killing more than a thousand people. in the sea.
This is what Gong Wei did.顡
After the first impact identified the location of the reef.
Back up first, then accelerate forward, turn left when you are about to load it, and use the inertia of the freighter to let the reef open a big hole in the freighter.
Only in this way can the freighter sink in a short time.
"Report, something is wrong with the Haines transporting machine tools, and it has deviated sixty nautical miles from its course!" While Li Hu and Gong Wei were discussing how to sink the cargo ship as soon as possible.
The owner of the Haynes finally realized something was wrong, and its dispatcher immediately reported it to his leadership.
"Did you call? What did the Haines say?" the leader asked.
"I've been calling for more than two hours, but the Haines hasn't responded. I guess something happened." The dispatcher replied.顡
"There has been no reply after calling for more than two hours. Don't be careless. I will contact the chairman immediately." If contact with other freighters is lost, the leader will not be nervous because there is probably a problem with the radio signal.
After all, we are on the sea, and communication is not as convenient as on land.
But the Haynes is not good. It transports machine tools, high-precision machine tools. If you don't report it, it's okay if nothing happens. If something happens, you will be the best scapegoat.
