Chapter 1,296 Emergency Rescue!(1/2)
9:45 pm, by the Wusongkou River.
The wind was blowing so hard that the metal signboard not far away was almost blown down. The tide was so strong that the one-kilometer long embankment leading to the lighthouse was completely submerged in the water, and only half of the lighting pole used to alert passing ships was visible.
This is the jurisdiction of Wusong Police Station of Changhang Donghai Branch, and the police there are worried about the white lighthouse in front of them.
Wusongkou Lighthouse has a unique shape and an iconic location, so many people regard it as a scenic spot. It is a management area and is about 100 meters away from Tangzhihou Road where people and vehicles can pass freely.
When outsiders want to come here, they have to go through unknown paths, climb over several walls and barbed wire fences, and cross muddy wastelands full of garbage and weeds. However, tourists and fishing enthusiasts who want to see the lighthouse and sunrise always ignore the "Riverside Pole".
"Drowning is easy, no climbing over the wall to enter" warning signs came over, and some people even used the powerful scissors they carried to break open the barbed wire fence.
The lighthouse is a navigation facility used to guide passing ships to navigate safely, not an attraction.
Moreover, it is really dangerous here.
During spring tides, the difference between the highest and lowest tide levels exceeds 3.8 meters. The long embankment leading to the lighthouse is exposed to the water at low tide, and is completely submerged by the river at high tide. It is easy for people to be trapped in the middle of the water, or even directly swept away by the tide.
The slope protection on both sides of the long embankment and near the bank are made of stones of different sizes. They are potholed, slippery, and uneven. It is easy to sprain your feet, fall, or even slip into the river when playing. Tourists and tourists who come here admire it.
There is still an endless stream of fishing enthusiasts. The Wusong Police Station has to send out police officers countless times a year for this purpose, and joint maritime department rescues are commonplace.
However, Xiaoyu came here today not to rescue the trapped people, but to promote training through battle and lead a few newcomers to monitor the river.
On the night of April 20, 22 navigation beacon batteries from 10 navigation beacons on the North Waterway from Wusongkou to Baoshan were stolen, causing a direct economic loss of 347,600 yuan. Fortunately, the navigation beacon management department discovered it early and installed new batteries in time, otherwise they would not have known what would have happened.
How much indirect loss.
Busy water traffic is inseparable from the effective protection of navigation aids. Especially at night, navigation lights are known as the "eyes" for ships entering and exiting the Yangtze River and Huangpu River. Without the eyes, it is easy to collide, run aground or even capsize. In fact, this area
Water traffic accidents often occur in the waters, and it is unknown how many people die every year.
Navigation beacon batteries have excellent performance and are widely used. They not only provide electrical energy for light buoys, but are also favored by criminals, whose black hands reach out to navigation beacons time and time again.
In the most serious case, the navigation beacon authority replaced the battery one day, but the battery disappeared the next day. Not only did it cause great losses to national property, but more seriously, because there were no navigation beacon lights to guide people entering and exiting the Yangtze River and Huangpu River,
Ships are frequently in distress, seriously endangering water traffic safety.
The Donghai Maritime Public Security Bureau and the CSC Donghai Branch attach great importance to this series of beacon battery thefts. As early as three months ago, they established a joint task force to study, formulate and launch "Operation Falcon" to target this series of cases.
However, the suspects generally choose to commit crimes after nightfall, when the water is so wide that it is difficult to spot them. Judging from the method of committing the crime, the suspects should approach the navigation mark in a brisk boat and escape immediately after succeeding.
In terms of on-site physical evidence, the navigation mark has been floating on the water for many years, and once a theft occurs, the competent authorities must immediately restore it, which objectively makes it difficult to obtain evidence.
For other theft cases, the investigation can start from the sale of stolen goods. But this is the "golden waterway". Along both sides of the river, including the upper reaches, there are a large number of irregular ship supplies markets. Some markets only deal with acquaintances, and the whereabouts of the batteries cannot be traced.
The police handling the case used methods such as assisted investigation, reporting, and investigation, but none of them worked.
The leaders of the task force really couldn't think of a better way, and finally decided to send a large number of police forces to ambush key waters at night. With the help of water law enforcement boats from Changhang Public Security, Maritime Affairs and other departments, an intertwined water and shore network was formed in the case-prone area.
Encirclement, through monitoring the navigation beacon facilities, it was discovered in time that the navigation beacon battery was damaged, and the target was quickly locked the moment the navigation beacon lights went out, and each group was instructed to quickly gather at the crime point to pursue, intercept, and capture the thief.
Colleagues from Changhang's Donghai Branch and Donghai Maritime Public Security Bureau have been monitoring the situation for nearly three months. Not only did they find nothing, they also allowed thieves to take advantage of the loopholes.
When I was leading the team to train in Wusongkou, I saw that each of the police officers participating in the war was looking more haggard than the last, so I offered to let the water commando team work several shifts.
Xiaoyu also felt that the commando team could not just train but not participate in actual combat. Tonight, he led two newcomers to ambush in the factory building of the water plant by the river, monitoring the two navigation marks on the river through high-power telescopes.
Zhu Jiaping stared at the beacon light through the binoculars, her eyes almost blurred, and couldn't help but ask: "Fish team, the wind and waves are so strong, and the maritime affairs department issued a blue warning in the afternoon, the battery thieves will not come, right?"
Xiaoyu sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes to rest, and asked: "Are you saying that the wind and waves are so strong that the boat dare not come out?"
Zhu Jiaping muttered: "It's easy for the boat to capsize in this weather."
Men and women are matched, so work is not tiring.
Jian Ju is definitely a leader who knows how to lead troops. This time he recruited new team members and actually managed to recruit two "overlord flowers". Zhu Jiaping is one of them. Her old team is very famous.
There used to be a TV series called "Women's SWAT Team", and she was a veteran of the Nishikawa Armed Police Women's SWAT Team!
Another "overlord flower" Shi Dejuan has a good background. Before retiring from the army, he was a shooting athlete in the Sports Brigade of the Guangzhou Military Region. He once joined the Bayi Shooting Team to participate in national shooting competitions and achieved good results.
In addition to their two "overlord flowers", Jianju also recruited three male team members.
One is a veteran of the Marine Corps, one is a veteran of the Changyi Boat Brigade of the Armed Police, and the other is a retired officer from a certain unit of the Guangzhou Military Region.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Among the five new team members, Xiaoyu admires the retired officer Ding Guobao the most.
Ding Guobao was not ranked high in the commando team in terms of shooting or grappling. He could not even defeat the two little girls who had just joined the commando team. But he worked at an ammunition repair and assembly station under a certain ordnance repair station of the Guangzhou Military Region.
After thirteen years, he grew from an ordinary soldier to a captain officer, responsible for destroying all types of scrapped ammunition!
He does the most dangerous job in the army. He is a fake bomb expert, and now he is an explosive ordnance disposal expert in the commando team.
Fang Cheng, a veteran from the Changyi Boating Brigade of the Armed Police, was also admired by Xiaoyu.
The young man's family is a boatman just like the salted fish family. He has been able to sail and repair boats since he was a child, and he loves to learn. He is the backbone of the business in the boat brigade. The young man's old army leaders speak highly of him, saying that he has "all-weather rescue capabilities".
The ability to "reach all waters" and "combat in all time and space"!
It will take at least two years for the new cadres and new soldiers of the boat brigade to actually carry out their missions. During this period, they must not only conduct training on water operations and rescue, but also consult a large amount of hydrological data on the Yangtze River and understand the characteristics of the Three Gorges waters.
Although his previous education level was not high, he was like a natural marine policeman, and he didn't need to study hard to understand it. It is said that during the five years he served in the army, he drove a law enforcement boat in different waters, wide and narrow waterways, and high flood levels.
He has carried out more than 300 missions at night, in rainy days, and in fog. He has even summed up several methods of driving in formation, and explored several driving essentials such as right-angle turns, avoiding vortices, and rapid approaches.
The water commando team needs such talents!
Xiaoyu opened his eyes and looked sideways at the young man who was also leaning against the wall with his eyes closed and concentrating: "Equation, in this weather, do you dare to sail on the river?"
"Formula" is the nickname given by the captain. Fang Cheng was not used to it. He stood up and said, "What's wrong with this? The storm today is not that big."
"Bawanghua, do you hear me?" Xiaoyu stretched out, yawned and laughed: "In this weather, the equation can sail the boat on the river, and the thieves who steal the beacon's battery can do the same."
Before joining the water commando team, Zhu Yaping still had a sense of superiority.
After arriving, I realized that compared to the senior squad leaders in the team, I had learned in the Women's Special Police Team only the basic skills of a water commando team.
She held the high-powered telescope mounted on a tripod and stared at the buoy lights on the river. She couldn't help but muttered: "Fish Team, can you please stop calling me King Flower."
"Then let's change with Shi Dejuan. Your name is Rose, and her name is Bawanghua."
"What a rose, it sounds so awful."
"You are all sonorous roses. What Jian Ju said is so hard to hear?"
"I won't tell you anymore. I'll tell my sister-in-law later that you always like to give people nicknames."
What's wrong with nicknames? We all have nicknames, even dried salted fish...
Xiaoyu suddenly felt that there were two little girls in the team, although they were pleasing to the eye, they were also a bit troublesome. They had to be careful no matter what they did, and they were not as casual as before.
Thinking back to the fact that there were three police academy cadets at the beginning, only one Xiao Shen was able to persist. Xiaoyu made up his mind that if he had the chance to return to Changhang Police Academy, he must tell Principal Liu that the cadets could not learn business knowledge.
, you can’t always take cultural classes, physical training is also very important.
Fang Cheng knew that the captain was from Donghai, so he asked curiously: "Yu Captain, is your home far from here?"
"It's not too far, and it's not too close either." Xiaoyu said with a proud smile: "You should have been to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. My home is not far from the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. I will take you to my house for a few days off."
"Fish Team, I want to go to the Bund."
"You can see it from the balcony of my house. There is nothing interesting to see during the day, but it is beautiful at night."
"Yu team, can you see the Bund from your balcony?" Bawanghua couldn't believe it was true, and turned around and asked in surprise.
Xiaoyu motioned to Fang Cheng to take over Bawanghua, and said with a grin: "What are you kidding me for? You can see the Bund from the living room balcony, and you can see the Oriental Pearl TV Tower from the kitchen while cooking."
Bawanghua rubbed her sore eyes and asked doubtfully: "Yu Dui, your house is expensive, isn't it?"
"We bought it early. When we bought it, it wasn't as expensive as it is now."
"How much does it cost per square meter now?"
"About fifty or sixty thousand, I didn't ask the exact amount."
"How old is your family?"
"More than one hundred and forty square feet."
"Your house is worth more than seven million!"
"almost."
"..."
Bawanghua was speechless, spread out a cushion and sat in the corner without saying a word.
Isn't it just a house? These people talk about how the housing prices are like this.
Just when Xiaoyu felt bored, a hurried call suddenly came from the intercom: "Group by group, please answer when you receive it!"
"One group received, please tell me the briefing." Xiaoyu hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie.
"I have just received a maritime notification that a cargo ship has sunk in anchorage No. 8. The whereabouts of 10 crew members are unknown. Maritime Affairs and Coast Guard duty boats have been dispatched urgently. You are closest to the waters where the shipwreck occurred. Your superiors have ordered you to dispatch immediately to participate in search and rescue!"
"clear!"
"be safe."
"I know."
Finally got something down to business.
Xiao Yu immediately got up and ran outside while ordering: "Formula, Overlord Flower, follow me!"
