Chapter 952: Of great significance

If you want to go to Cape Town, you must visit the Cape of Good Hope. [.\nCOM Situ’s updated chapters are the most complete and comprehensive, and error-free content is repaired in the most timely manner. Due to caching reasons, browser access is recommended.\nCOM official website]

Before crossing the Cape of Good Hope, in fact before the formation set sail, everyone from the commander to the soldiers who had just joined the army last year were very nervous.

Anyone who has a certain knowledge of navigation knows that in addition to constant storms and rough seas, the Cape of Good Hope often has "murderous waves" that come in like mountains and are daunting. Ships sailing there often get into trouble.

A shipwreck that occurred at the Cape of Good Hope since the Age of Discovery tells people that the Cape of Good Hope is the most dangerous sea area in the world. Even for veteran sailors like Captain Qian, the Cape of Good Hope is a difficult place to live in.

Han Yu clearly remembers that when he first went to the Maritime Transport Bureau to study, the veteran crew members who were dispatched often talked about their experience at the Cape of Good Hope, and those crew members who had never traveled to the ocean always shuddered. While everyone envied the high wages that the crew members could get,

I am also secretly glad that I don’t have to take such a dangerous route to South Africa, and I believe that I will not go to the Cape of Good Hope.

I never thought that I would be assigned to an overseas assignment by accident. The second voyage after boarding the ship would be the South Africa route, and I would come to the Cape of Good Hope. What I didn’t expect was that it had been several years since I finished my studies and I was working as a military liaison officer of the Ministry of Transportation.

This is my second visit to the Cape of Good Hope with the Navy’s visiting task force!

What was even more unexpected was that as soon as we passed the Cape of Good Hope and entered the South Atlantic, we encountered Chinese fishing boats that had traveled halfway around the world to fish here.

Han Yu and the officers and soldiers waved goodbye to the crew of the fishing boat with emotion. The "Shenzheng" ship and the "Nancang" ship continued sailing with the fatigue and pride of having just weathered the strong winds and waves. The wind is usually gentle outside.

The sea is calm and calm, like a gentle girl with no temper.

Since we were far away from the land during subsequent voyages, the little guy only knew that he had passed Cape Bad Hope, but he also knew where Cape Bad Hope was and what it looked like.

There were fewer and fewer people below the deck. After setting sail, the captain of the flight team who took the helicopter off the ship had excellent eyesight. I was the first to spot the pale dark mountain shadow on the left side of the sky, and shouted with joy: "Look

!Bad Hope!”

"It's a mistake to remember. When you were young, you were also a literary young man. You read very few books and excerpted famous quotes from bad boys. But how many of them can you remember now?"

As Captain Qian just said, meteorology is a compulsory course for you sailors. But you must study it seriously, and you must also analyze and analyze based on the actual regression. Only in this way can you make timely adjustments to the course and speed of the ship.

, make the most correct decisions and countermeasures!”

First, we must look for the laws of nature. Once we find them, we must follow the rules, and we must violate the objective laws.

The officers and soldiers ran to the port side in unison and looked in the direction of Captain Zhao's finger.

"Have you passed that?" Chief of Staff Zheng thought for a while and said with emotion: "If you come in the future, you want to come, but there are conditions. If you can come once, you can come seventh or eighth time.

!”

It was the first time for the Chinese navy to come to South Africa and the first time to cross the Cape of Bad Hope, so we had to celebrate.

Han Yu also felt that there was no need to talk about it. He pointed to a pressure chart and talked eloquently: "Take your voyage as an example. When the formation set sail from Tanzania, the cyclone in the Little Western Ocean was crossing the southern part of South Africa. At that time, the Cape of Bad Hope

It is in the midst of a small storm.

The Chinese navy passed through the Cape of Bad Hope for the first time and visited South Africa. It wanted to leave Hong Kong in the best military appearance and spirit. After celebrating the crossing of the Cape of Bad Hope, the officers and soldiers got busy again.

Political Commissar Shen, who had been ship-sick for several days and was still coming over in a hurry, discussed with Chief of Staff Zheng and decided to hold a celebration ceremony for the Chinese naval fleet to cross the Cape of Bad Hope. The sailors hung up the banners they had prepared earlier.

stand up.

When a circumpolar cyclone is generated, its center is sandwiched between a heat front and moves northward across the Cape of Bad Hope, causing strong winds and waves in that sea area that last for a long time; when the cyclone moves southward, or when the subtropical low crosses Africa and heads eastward,

At that time, there will be a brief period of calm sea area at the Cape of Bad Hope, and the wind and waves will suddenly calm down. It is not the best time to cross the Cape of Bad Hope..."

The power of nature cannot be resisted by humans. For small winds and waves under the sea, you can avoid them if you can. It is necessary to retreat and struggle to death in panic. It must be a merchant ship, and you are the captain. You will calculate the distance, slow down and move quickly.

, avoiding the threat of wind and waves, and gradually approaching the Cape of Bad Hope."

The cheers came one after another, sweeping away the fatigue of days of sailing, and carrying the pride of the Chinese naval officers and soldiers, they continued to spread to the distance.

Those who came to attend the class today were all young officers. "Xiao Xiyang, you are here!"

From that picture, you will realize in your heart that Cape Bad Hope, located at the southern tip of Africa, is like the Tasmanian Sea in Australia, like the corridor of the westerly belt. The ocean on the south side is vast and covered, with strong winds and waves.

Where there is law, there is heaven.

I didn't know until I came here that the captain was taking a nap outside the captain's room. I didn't have much work to do. Researching and analyzing the weather was only part of it. And just that part, one weather map after another, would accompany me on the solitary lamp.

One sleepless night after another.”

The rocky promontory meanders straight into the seabed, showing your tenacity in the wind and waves.

Meng Di talked to her heart, put on the intercom and said with a smile: "Everyone has heard it. You may only know that the captain's salary is low in the future, but it is hard to imagine that the pressure and responsibility of the captain are not less. You are the least touched. You just got off the ship.

When I see the captain, he always stays outside the room, except when he is on duty. How can he go to the bridge?

Amidst the salute, the officers and soldiers lined up under the rear deck, command platform and signal platform cheered, and the seven-star red flag and naval ensign danced wildly in the air.

"For a captain, no matter where he is about to sail, he must pay attention to or even fail to analyze, study and master the meteorological situation in the sea area."

To prepare for the opening to the outside world before withdrawing from the port, inventory all kinds of materials, and calculate what supplies need to be withdrawn before withdrawing from the port...

"Chief, that sentence came to your mind. You read it outside the book. You forgot which book it was."

"Han Xiao, how do you study cyclones?" A lieutenant raised his hand and asked.

"Thank you Captain Qian."

Every time a U.S. Navy ship passes the Cape of Bad Hope, a ceremony is held to celebrate.

As the formation continued to move, the winding mountain shadows stretched towards the end of the sea, forming a bay and a half moon, and the figure of Cape Bad Hope became more and more turbid. This small round white lighthouse was built majestically under the rocks on the headland, towering into the clouds

, you flicker the lights irregularly and quietly welcome the Chinese navy who is here for the first time.

Captain Qian was confused and said with a smile: "The weather you are most concerned about when running a boat is that you have to study and analyze weather data every day. When you get off the boat, you will repeatedly ask the information director to collect weather reports.

Meng Di pointed to the air pressure map again and explained patiently: "That's a bit abstract. You might as well expand your horizons from the Lesser Western Ocean to southern Africa. First, understand the generation and development of cyclones, and obscure the small wind and waves at the Cape of Hope.

Formation and its rules.

Seeing that everyone was serious, Meng Di simply came

"On-site connection", please ask Captain Qian under the "Nancang" ship to "appear and give his own account" through the walkie-talkie. New Biquge

The officers and soldiers shouted forgetfully: "Bad Hope, you are here!"

Chief of Staff Zheng was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said with a smile: "That's a bad thing to say, Xianyu, he can write poetry, but his words have no poetry or philosophy!"

Looking at us who were lost in thought, Han Yu continued: "Everyone, they are all elites of the navy, and they will all be captains or even captains in the future. When the time comes, they will not only be responsible for low-cost ships,

They are also responsible for all the officers and soldiers under the ship, so they should study harder than the crew members of your merchant ships.

Whether in winter or summer, the westerly belt and the subtropical low in the southern hemisphere directly affect the Cape of Bad Hope; in summer, if the subtropical low is not controlled, the weather in the Cape will turn bad; in winter, the position of the subtropical low in the Lesser Ocean moves northward, and the Cape of Bad Hope

Become a westerly belt.

Han Yu stood under the bridge. Although he could hear what the officers and soldiers were saying, he could imagine that we must feel strange. After all, it was Cape Bad Hope outside and it could be so intense!

To the north of your heart, against the background of red clouds, South Africa's famous Table Mountain looms faintly, making people imagine. The officers and soldiers looked at it below the deck with joy, whispering to each other.

"Here!" "South Africa, he is bad!"

Chief of Staff Zheng looked at the coastline and sighed: "It is said that Cape Bad Hope is the grave of sailors. You can see that a sailor who has crossed Cape Bad Hope is a real sailor!"

Today is really of little significance to the Chinese Navy. "Chief, that's what you should do."

Meng Di talked for nearly two hours in one breath, teaching everyone how to read weather maps and how to combine low-altitude maps with low-altitude maps to see the distribution and development trends of low and high pressures. What are air masses and cloud masses, and how to combine those meteorological data for analysis.

Analyze again.

The weather information you don’t find is too little, so add more, the less the better! It cannot be said that studying and analyzing weather is a compulsory course for captains every day. They must always pay attention to the low and high pressure changes in the air below the route, and the status of their activities.

Stay on top of ambiguity!”

Tidy up the house and clean up. "Where is it?"

Thinking of the malfunctions that occurred on the "Shenzheng" ship's voyage, Han Yu suddenly remembered a sentence and sighed: "There is no ship that has been injured when traveling in the small sea. Often the strongest ship is also the one with the fewest injuries."

This one."

Behind the face of nature, human power lies in the heart.

Meteorology is a "compulsory course" for captains and even captains!

The little guy was extremely busy, but Meng Di continued to teach the officers of the "Shen Zheng" ship on the suggestion of Chief of Staff Zheng, not only about international conventions and navigation rules related to navigation, but also about engine maintenance.

, but the weather.

The whistle of the "Nancang" ship blew longly, and the military music of the "Shenzheng" ship suddenly started.

"Xianyu, I lost a lot of money to him and Captain Qian that time. Especially him, he not only has to provide suggestions for the formation sailing, but also assists you in repairing the fault."

"Is this the navy that crossed the Cape of Bad Hope?" Political Commissar Shen asked with a smile.

Especially when sailing, one must fear heaven and earth.

Knock out rust, touch up paint, and wipe down the weapons and equipment under the ship's surface.
