The captain asked eagerly, "What's wrong?" Hey, hey, Mao Xiaogang, what's wrong? Hey, hey, hey, hey. ”

However, there was no sound coming back from the microphone, and the captain was about to go crazy.

On that side, the telephone receiver in Mao Xiaogang's hand fell to the ground, and he himself, guarding the telephone line with one hand, and constantly driving away the naughty boat cat with the other.

"Go, go, this is the telephone line, only important supplies, you can't bite indiscriminately."

But the boat cat did not listen to the persuasion, "meow ······" After a howl, he continued to circle around the telephone line, making fluttering motions from time to time.

Mao Xiaogang only cared about protecting the telephone line, but he couldn't hear the eager shouts and inquiries of his captain in the microphone.

This is also a disadvantage of the current rudimentary telephone, when the microphone is far away from the ear, the sound cannot be heard clearly.

Therefore, Chen Xinhe's laboratory has not stopped the research work on the new generation of telephone technology, and is still working hard to improve it.

The captain didn't know if there was a problem outside, so for the sake of safety, he immediately pulled the alarm in the command room.

At the same time, the captain ordered the guard squad to quickly find out the situation on the watchtower.

The shrill electric bell rang, and the officers and sailors of the entire battleship Kokang, whether they were vomiting on the deck or working leisurely on the bottom without being polluted, quickly ran and rushed to their respective stations.

The entire Kokang battleship was put on alert, and then it spread out on the surrounding river, and the other fast crabs who were carrying out the interception and seizure tasks became nervous together.

Five minutes later, when the adjutant walked into the command room with a black face carrying the skin on the neck of the boat cat, the surrounding guards did not find any enemy troops.

The captain looked at the black face of his lieutenant, and the aggrieved appearance of the boat cat in his hand, and felt a little headache, what did this little ancestor do? Could it be that it made today's incident?

Chen Xin, a guy from later generations, loved "cloud cats" before he crossed over, and after coming to this era, after having power, he can really raise cats.

With a large number of subordinates, he can enjoy the fun of raising cats while not having to endure the shortcomings of raising cats, so his love for cats is even stronger.

If there is something good at the top, it will be very bad at the bottom.

The heads of the departments below who know his hobby naturally also "have" this "hobby".

Among these cat lovers in the United Kingdom of China, the Navy Department is especially so.

Because the ship has to exterminate invasive alien species such as rats and snakes, cats are a must. Therefore, they naturally have an "advantage" in this regard.

During the period of catering to Chen Xin's love of cats, these cute creatures naturally conquered most of the people on the ship.

Captain Zhou Mingde is one of the best.

His doting on the boat cats can almost be compared to Chen Xin, after the cat makes a small mistake, as long as he sells cutely, he can get his forgiveness.

However, Zhou Mingde looked at his adjutant's face and knew that today's mistake was probably not small.

His heart kept beating the drum, little ancestor, alas, if today's riot is really caused by you, I'm afraid I won't be able to favor you, such a big thing will definitely alarm the Admiralty.

In this anxious state of mind, the captain, who has always been very strong, did not dare to speak out for the first time, but looked at the cat in the adjutant's hand pitifully.

And the adjutant, looking at the unique pitiful appearance of his captain, sighed unconsciously and explained directly, "Captain, this little guy actually bit off the telephone line on the watchtower." ”

As he spoke, he raised his other hand and showed a piece of the disconnected telephone line as evidence.

"So, the main cause of the riots, have you found it?"

Behind the adjutant, the first mate was also there, he had vomited so much that it was dark before, and his face was still a little pale at this time, and his whole body was dirty and exuding a rancid smell.

However, he didn't care about the image problem at this time, after all, he was an officer, and he needed to solve the series of reactions caused by the riot just now before he could think about anything else.

The first mate took two steps, saluted, and said, "Report sir, we have found the reason.

On one of the seized merchant ships, a riot was launched. In the course of the suppression, some of the officers of our marines who were guarding the opposing sailors on the ship were wounded, and their soldiers used a large number of weasel bullets in violation of the law in a fit of rage.

The number of weasel shells that exceeded the regulations of the war exploded and dispersed in the small cabin, but they could not be diluted, but could only gather and slowly spread to the outside.

And our ship happened to be downwind of that merchant ship, so it suffered from the pond fish. ”

Fortunately, fortunately, the riot was not caused by cats.

The captain breathed a sigh of relief and resumed his unmistakable military officer-in-chief style.

He first pretended to be casual, calmly took the cat from the adjutant's hand, hugged it in his arms, and brushed the messy hair on the cat's neck after it was caught.

Then he ordered"

Find another place to detain all the rioters and wait for the Judge Advocate General's Office.

In addition, the weasel bomb is very polluting, and even one of them can leave the stench of the explosion point for months.

Since that ship used an excessive amount of special ammunition in violation of regulations, I am afraid that in a short time, that ship will not be used.

Drive the boat a little farther away, find a place downwind of the settlement that is empty, and put it on the shore for the time being. ”

"You mean, ditch that boat?"

"That's right, abandon, but if anyone wants to, as long as they can drive away, I have no opinion."

"Uh" The first mate and the other officers shuddered at the thought of the stench wafting from afar, shook their heads, and threw the terrible thought out of their minds.

The captain suddenly remembered something, bared his teeth and said, "Just let the soldier who violated the rules and used excessive special ammunition to drive the ship, which can be regarded as a punishment for him." ”

One of the heralds received the order, and he quickly turned around and ran out of the command room in a very excited manner, desperate for revenge on the culprit.

At this time, the entire group of people on the Kokang was full of resentment against the culprit who caused the riot, the rioting sailors, and everyone was eager to solve the trouble as soon as possible.

And the soldier who violated the rules, with this punishment, can also remember for a long time, and the herald said that he is willing to forgive the soldier generously.

When the herald went out, the captain asked again, "Wounded officer, how is it now?" ”

"Rest assured, sir, the officer has been treated, and if there is no serious problem, he has been sent to the rear medical institution."

"Well, now, let's talk about the seized merchant ships. Judging from this matter, it is easy to go wrong with such a seizure. ”

The first mate also chimed in, "I also found out about this problem, but before I could think of a solution, something happened." ”

"So, do you have any suggestions?"

"Captain, I think that the plan set before the war needs to be changed, and there are more and more merchant ships seized, and it is easy for accidents to occur, and I think that the General Headquarters should be asked to send more troops to come to support."

An officer immediately objected, "It's not proper, in the face of Houjin, who has no naval strength, dispatching so many warships is already a knife to kill chickens, and it is too exaggerated to ask the higher authorities to send more ships and troops."

I think that we should find a place to dock, gather all the sailors on the merchant ship and imprison them, and then let all the merchant ships anchor and anchor, just like we did with the merchant ship that happened just now.

After the separation of man and ship, we only need to put most of our energy on people, because because of the relationship between the cargo on board, as long as the sailor and the owner cannot get on the ship, it is impossible to abandon the ship and run away.

In this way, it was possible to guard the largest number of merchant ships with the least number of troops. ”

The captain quickly made a decision, "That's it, first mate, please take the staff officers to plan this plan carefully, the war is about to start, this is the next stage of rehearsal, I have to continue the previous inspection work, as much as possible to ensure that there are no problems in our preparations." ”

The first mate saluted, "Please rest assured, captain, this is in my hands." ”
