Chapter 949 Come often!
Of all the military services in the world, the navy is the one with the most decorum.
The formation entered the territorial waters of Malaysia, and Han Yu rushed to the bridge immediately, ignoring the need to be a non-staff electromechanical officer.
The captain contacted the Malaysian Navy according to international etiquette and sent a greeting telegram.The welcoming ship of the Malaysian Navy soon sailed over to welcome the arrival of the Chinese naval fleet and hoisted the welcome signal flag.
The Shenzheng ship immediately sent a thank-you message and raised a signal flag expressing gratitude at the same time.
The sea area of Malaysia is one of the busiest sea areas for shipping in the world. Although the port to berth is a military port, but the military port is next to the commercial port, it can be called the busiest port in the world.
In order to ensure the safety of navigation, especially entering the port, the Malaysian side not only sent a welcome ship, but also a pilot boat. The Shenzheng ship picked up the liaison officer of the Malaysian Navy and the pilot of the port according to the previous agreement.
Although there are several translators in the formation, and they all speak good English, they don't know much about navigation and international maritime conventions, and the translations inevitably fail to convey the meaning.
Han Yu's English is really not good, and his pronunciation is not even standard, but like Captain Qian from Guangzhou Navigation Academy, at least he knows what the other party really wants to express, and he can also make his own meaning clear to the other party. The captain's translation.
At 9:46 in the morning, the formation entered the port under the guidance of the welcoming ship.
The two warships are full of flags, and the officers and soldiers on the ship do not need to arrange their clothes. They line up on the left and right sides, commonly known as "zhanpo".
Not all the officers and soldiers who visited this time were crew members of the Shenzheng ship and the Nancang supply ship.
For example, the command post has officers from the Navy Headquarters and the South Sea Fleet Command.Another example is the accompanying reporters, some from the People's Liberation Army Daily, some from the People's Navy Daily, some from the PLA Television Art Center, that is, reporters from the military column of Central 7, and even propaganda cadres from the fleet and even the headquarters.
In addition, there is a military band.
The Shenzheng ship was berthing and saw the military band of the Malaysian Navy playing on the pier.
Not far from the Malaysian military band, Chinese and overseas Chinese who came to greet them were crowded in black and white. Some held banners, some waved Chinese flags, some held flowers, and some waved desperately to express their admiration for seeing the warships of the motherland. Excitement.
The warship approached the pier, fastened the cables, and boarded the gangway. The military band on the ship played a cheerful march.
Chief of Staff Zheng and Team Leader Shen were the first to disembark in clean white uniforms.
The Malaysian navy general had been waiting for a long time. Accompanied by the liaison officer who disembarked together, the Chinese ambassador to Malaysia, military attache and others, he went forward to greet Chief of Staff Zheng and Team Leader Shen and introduced each other.
According to the schedule discussed earlier, the admiral of the Malaysian Navy made a short speech on the pier, expressing welcome to the visit of the Chinese naval fleet.Chief of Staff Zheng expressed his gratitude to the Malaysian Navy and overseas Chinese for their warm welcome on behalf of the visiting fleet.
Immediately afterwards, Malaysian generals, officials and celebrities were invited to visit the ship.
The embassy had prepared for this moment for many days. Han Yu could clearly see that the ambassadors, counselors, and military officers were all crying with excitement just now!
Anyone who has been abroad, especially those who have stayed abroad, can understand their mood at this moment.
Weak countries have no diplomacy, and no one is more touched by Chinese diplomats who have experienced a century of humiliation.
The motherland is strong, and the ships of the motherland's navy are here to visit, which is confidence for diplomats like them!
The scale of Chinese naval ships is not large enough, and the ships are not very advanced, but the scale of the Malaysian navy is smaller, and the naval ships are even more backward.
The Malaysian generals and officials, accompanied by Chief of Staff Zheng, Political Commissar Shen and the ambassador, visited and kept asking questions with great interest. They were not only shocked but also envious to learn that this large guided missile destroyer was independently built by China.
The ship set up an exhibition area dedicated to promoting the Shenzheng Special Zone, and even brought in a large-screen LCD TV to play the promotional videos of the Shenzheng Special Zone in a loop.
Almost all the embassy staff members who could come came.
Han Yu didn't need to be an interpreter any more, so he stood beside him and asked curiously, "Angkor, how much advertising fee did Shenzheng pay for Shenzheng's promotion?"
Staff Officer Wu smiled and nodded to several Malaysian officials who were visiting, and said calmly: "There is a reason for naming the Shenzheng Ship. It can not only reflect the spirit of 'dare to be the first in the world', but also reflect Show the world our determination to reform and open up in China."
"Shenzheng didn't give you any money?"
"You know money, you kid." Staff Officer Wu scolded with a smile, and after thinking about it, he said, "But he must have sent condolences, and naturally the condolences will not be empty-handed."
Today can be recorded in the annals of history, today's visit is very meaningful.
Han Yu also changed into a clean white naval officer uniform and wore the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Shanghai Navy Reserve. After the cameraman left, he said calmly: "The East China Sea Fleet also has a frigate named after our Binjiang. Our Binjiang city leader I visit every year to give my condolences."
"That's it." Staff Officer Wu looked behind him, and continued: "The leaders of Shenzheng City not only came to express their condolences, but I heard that they even gave the Shenzheng Ship a job transfer quota every year."
"Only one a year?"
"It's a special economic zone, not anyone can go there if they want! Besides, there are only so many cadres on board, how many can change jobs a year?"
"It is."
Staff Officer Wu has been on the supply ship for the past few days, and he is not very clear about what happened on the Shenzheng ship.
Confirming that no one is paying attention here, I couldn't help asking: "Brother, did something malfunction again yesterday?"
Han Yu took a deep breath and said nonchalantly, "The main engine that had a steam leak last time had an elastic piece of the steam turbine drive shaft fall off. It's not a big problem, and it will be ruled out soon."
"It's good to rule it out. I heard that there is another malfunction, which makes me worry."
As soon as Staff Officer Wu finished speaking, the sound of a flute came from ahead.
It's time for dinner. At noon, a reception will be held on board the ship for the Malaysian navy generals, Malaysian officials and celebrities from all walks of life.
To this end, the cooks on board prepared for several days!
As an observer appointed by the Navy Headquarters, Han Yu will participate as a garrison liaison officer.
Chief of Staff Zheng and the ambassador delivered speeches, and the admiral of the Malaysian Navy delivered a speech... This meal is very "official", it is really better to eat with the officers and soldiers.
Han Yu was about to ask the deputy captain in charge of the logistics supply if the protective clothing had been delivered, when suddenly the sound of gongs and drums on the pier was accompanied by bursts of cheers.
Walked out of the restaurant and went to the deck to look down, and suddenly found that the Chinese and overseas Chinese who came to welcome us not only did not leave, but more than in the morning, some were beating gongs and drums, some were dancing lions, and more people were busy queuing Take photos with the officers and soldiers of the ships on duty on the pier.
According to the schedule, the warship will be opened this afternoon, and Malaysians and overseas Chinese are welcome to visit the ship.
You don't need to ask to know that they are waiting to board the ship.
When the fleet visits abroad, the officers and soldiers go ashore, which is equivalent to entering the country, and they must also go through entry procedures.
Command all the special personnel to be in charge of docking with Malaysian officials, and the process was completed in the morning, which took less than two hours.
Han Yu couldn't help but walked to the pier along the gangway, seeing the overseas Chinese desperately waving and shouting to say hello, he was moved from the bottom of his heart and felt proud from the bottom of his heart.
An elderly Chinese asked eagerly when he saw him: "Sir, is this a warship built by China itself?"
"Hi, I'm not an officer, and our Chinese navy doesn't like to be called an officer."
"That's right, that's right, you shouldn't be called an officer, you should be called a comrade!"
Seeing that the overseas Chinese wanted to take a group photo, Han Yu cooperated with them and stood beside them. While letting them take pictures, Han Yu confirmed with a smile: "Old man, this warship was built by China itself. You are welcome to go back to China and take a look when you have time.”
"Okay, I must go back, I must go back when I have time!"
"Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, when will the warship open, and when can we go aboard?"
"Immediately, it will be opened when the Malaysian navy general leaves."
"Great, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, this is the first time I have seen a Chinese warship!"
"Miss, I believe this will never be the last time, we will come here often in the future."
Once you come down, you won't be able to leave.
Overseas Chinese have more questions than one, and more people want to take photos together.
Han Yu was so busy that the Malaysian generals and officials who had attended the banquet, accompanied by the two heads of state and ambassadors, got off the warship, got into the passing cars and left one after another.
Tonight, they will hold a reception banquet, and Han Yu will go to the banquet together with the captain and political commissar and the two chiefs.
As soon as the Malaysian generals and dignitaries left, the command post ordered the officers and soldiers on duty at the pier to allow the overseas Chinese who had been waiting all morning to board the ship as planned.
Some Malaysian Chinese came here from hundreds of kilometers away, and some overseas Chinese even made a special trip from Singapore and the Philippines. We must not disappoint them.
But in order to ensure safety, they can only be allowed to board the ship in batches.
There were too many people, it was getting dark, and it was closed to the outside world, and many people asked the officers and soldiers on duty to let them go up and have a look, even if they only went up for a walk.
Chief of Staff Zheng discussed with Political Commissar Shen and ordered the opening hours to be extended.
The overseas Chinese were extremely excited and understood the officers and soldiers of the fleet very well. After boarding the ship, they really only made a round trip and did not dare to waste too much time for the officers and soldiers.
After the visit, I returned to the pier and was reluctant to leave. Seeing the mighty Shenzheng ship, they all gave thumbs up, saying that China is now powerful, and they, the Chinese in Malaysia, are very proud.
On the way to the banquet, Political Commissar Shen asked in a low voice, "Salted fish, how do you feel?"
Han Yu didn't expect the chief to ask this question, so he was silent for a moment and said, "We are late, we will come more often in the future."
What happened in the afternoon moved Political Commissar Shen very much, and he didn't even know how many times he was moved.
Thinking that Han Yu is good everywhere but doesn't want to be a soldier, Political Commissar Shen said meaningfully: "We are late, what does it have to do with you."
"Chief, the reserve force is an important part of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. I am also a navy. I said we came late, and I will come more often in the future. Is the 'we' wrong?"
"There is still a difference between the reserve force and the active force."
"Chief, people can discriminate against our reserve forces, but you can't!"
Chief of Staff Zheng was amused and couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Han, now you know that serving as a soldier is very honorable, you can consider enlisting in the army. If you want to serve as a soldier, if you are willing to come to our fleet, I will let you be the first officer Captain, work hard for two years and let you be the captain!"
The Chief is sincere.
After all, you can only drive and repair ships, not fight.
Be the deputy captain first, learn how to command operations, and then become the captain. This is definitely a heavy responsibility.
Han Yu was really moved, but it was only moved, and he said with a look of embarrassment: "Chief, I know how much I have, and I can't be a captain. Besides, I can do whatever I can if I stay in the local area." Probably more than being a soldier."
In terms of capable commanders, there are many troops.
There are only a handful of reserve officers who are capable and capable of doing things.
Commissar Shen had figured it out a long time ago, and nodded approvingly: "You don't need to be a soldier, and you can indeed play a greater role in the local area."
Han Yu didn't want to talk about this, so he changed the subject immediately: "Sir, according to the plan, we will resupply tonight. When the Shenzheng Ship opened in the afternoon, I went to the resupply ship and found that the sealing of the oil tank was not very good. 2 There was even water in the compartment next door to No. [-] oil tank."
This formation consisting of two new ships has just formed an army, and there are always problems of one kind or another.
Chief of Staff Zheng sighed secretly, nodded: "Understood, I will tell them later and let them check it carefully."
