In the center of the lights are several rectangular barges, with two layers of containers on them. From a distance, it looks like a container terminal, and there are even several tugboats docked at the terminal.
If it weren't for several escort boats nearby and even destroyers and frigates in the distance, this place would really look like a newly constructed container terminal.
When the Taishan approached, I realized that the pier was not big. There are only two rows of barges that make up the floating dock. There is a gap between the two rows that is not much wider than the Taishan boat body. There is a barge crossing one end of the gap to block it.
"I'm going, we're entering port again." Zhao Rongguang was studying the 14.5mm machine gun currently mounted on the open-air bridge along the way. This thing is a bit new to submariners, especially now that there are piles of ammunition boxes piled at their feet.
Anyway, apart from the need to keep a low profile in public when setting out, the radio was used blatantly for all kinds of coordination and communication, and basically nothing happened to him as a signal soldier. Only then did he raise his head and discover the New World.
"No, this is just like entering the shipyard, can you do it?" This guy has not yet developed the consciousness to face the new associate academician, when Su Qin and his status are almost the same.
"Two cars in one, move forward slowly." Su Qin ignored him, drove the Taishan a few hundred meters away in the direction of the opening of the gap, and slowly turned the ship's bow.
"Left 5 degrees. Hold still." Su Qin stared at the compass and the entrance to the gap in front. A steering order comes every few seconds,
"Right 3 degrees, no, it's 4 degrees." The back and forth irritated Xu Siqi, who was helping to steer the ship below.
"What do you mean by twisting around? Is it fun?" Xu Siqi was completely unaware of the situation. Of course, no sailor on the ship would make such a joke on him, but he was a pilot.
"Shut up, we're going through a narrow waterway here!" Su Qin was furious now and pushed back.
"Can't you just pretend it's instrument flying?"
"Okay, okay, received." I don't know who is suppressing Xu Siqi below. It is probably either Xiao Song or Wang Qinyun, so Xu Siqi immediately surrendered.
The Taishan twisted around like this, completely aiming at the gap more than 100 meters away and sailing directly through it.
"Stop both vehicles." Su Qin gave the parking order early and watched as the Taishan slid steadily into the gap and stopped slowly when the bow of the boat was still a few meters away from the end of the gap. There was no need to anchor or reverse. Pushing, I couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"The results in Subject 2 were good." Zhao Rongguang was still making sarcastic remarks, but the newly appointed associate academician still ignored him.
The sailors on the deck were already preparing to throw the cable, and Su Qin quickly added the order.
"Throw the cable from both sides. Don't make the cable too tight, and don't put down the ladder yet."
Su Qin immediately took Xu Siqi's place. He was here to operate the core of the spacecraft, and the position of helmsman indeed belonged to him.
Although he got a new position as associate academician, the original associate academician's seat cannot be given to him. It is now Xiao Song's seat. Xiao Song is still the technical person in charge of this flight, and in Zhao Rongguang's words, he is called the "chief scientific officer."
Besides, the core of the spacecraft cannot be accommodated in that position, especially since Wang Qinyun’s seat cannot be added next to it.
Xu Siqi's position is on the other side, called aviation equipment operator. Next to it, there is an aerospace equipment operator position and an observer position for crab seedlings. There is no one in these positions at the moment.
The space is limited, and Zhao Rongguang, the signal soldier, has no place in the command room now. But anyway, the Tarzan will not dive underwater now.
Zhao Rongguang is also very willing to switch to the gunnery and artillery position. His combat position is now on the open-air bridge, responsible for operating the large-caliber machine gun and lookout.
Following Su Qin's operation, the Taishan slowly left the water. It was not until the cables tied to the boat's body were tightened that the belly of the boat just left the water.
This operation shocked the sailors who were still working on the barge. Although they had been told not to make a fuss when seeing any abnormalities, no one could have imagined that it was such an abnormality.
It is obviously unrealistic to tell them these things clearly in advance. After completing the task today, the work of confidentiality education is arduous enough.
Su Qin boarded the bridge again, looked at the cable with satisfaction, and felt that it was just right, so he let people lower the gangway.
"Let the academicians and medical personnel go and inspect the supplies, and inform the chief engineer to start installing cooling water pipelines."
These things will keep you busy for a while, and maybe the Taishan can really take off before dawn.
The first person to be temporarily called was Xiao Song. She wanted to sign for a whole container of aerospace exploration equipment, and at her request, the container had to be temporarily relocated because the equipment would be put into use on the way.
Then the leaders of each department of the medical team were also found. Each department always has its own instruments and equipment that need to be signed for and confirmed. This departure was really too hasty. The work of counting these equipment has been delayed until now, but Nothing went wrong.
In the end even the director of the sanatorium was called off the ship to sign for supplies and cooking carts.
Fortunately for Xiao Song, those who got off the boat couldn't help but make a fuss at the bottom of the Taishan, which was now out of the water, and no one stopped them from describing it with joy after returning to the boat.
This was great, the medical team members on the ship all ran to the hatch, scrambling to stretch their heads, but what could they see at the hatch? All they saw was a dock full of containers. Barges are just docks in most people's minds.
Academician Wang and the leader of the medical team figured it out. In full view of the high-rise buildings on all sides of the sanatorium, everyone was a little regretful about their sneaky departure. There was not even a national flag on the Taishan.
Now there is a vast sea in all directions, and there is no one except the military personnel who are here to see us off, so we might as well hold a formal departure ceremony.
So after signing for the supplies, with an order, the unrelated personnel withdrew the tugboat and unmoored the boat and left the barge directly, and all the medical team members left the boat.
They lined up on the "pier" in their minds, while the crew of the Taishan and the special forces personnel who were more familiar with the navy's traditions stood on the deck of the Taishan.
During the process of forming the team, Wang Qinyun was the only one who was at a loss and was running around. In the end, she was caught in the middle by Xiao Song and Xu Siqi, and she finally stood still.
Under the bright searchlights, Academician Wang connected to the loudspeaker and read out the superior's order again. This time, the scene was finally silent.
