Chapter 554: Motherland, Relatives!
According to the order, the flagship of the escort formation rushed to the port of Hodeidah as fast as possible, and arrived at the port of Hodeidah on September 4. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Prior to this, the relevant departments had communicated with the Saudi side and the Houthis to ensure that the Chinese warship would not be attacked.
But despite this, Major General Fang, who personally commanded the evacuation of overseas Chinese, still issued an order to be on combat alert, and all sailors were fully armed except for the requirements of their posts. A platoon of Marines who had been brought in by helicopter from an integrated supply ship was responsible for perimeter vigilance. The wharf, as well as an area around it, was all requisitioned by the Chinese Navy.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, under the organization of the embassy staff, the expatriates began to arrive at the port one after another, and under the protection of the marines, they walked along the pier towards the mighty 052C-class destroyers.
A middle-aged man walked with a suitcase in tow, his eyes never left the warship, and saw the five-star red flag fluttering in the wind at the top of the mast. Tears swirled in his eyes, and he couldn't control his emotions, so he slowly stopped, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed to the five-star red flag.
A navy soldier stepped forward to help him up, pulled up his suitcase for him, and helped him walk towards the staircase of the warship.
Everyone had tears in their eyes and were very emotional.
"Our navy!, our warships!" said the older man, trembling and excited.
The young man's eyebrows fluttered, and his face was full of confident smiles, "Navy! Awesome!"
The faces of the Chinese were filled with happy and confident smiles, and outside the docks, a large number of expatriates from other countries were kept out, unorganized and scattered, watching with envy as the Chinese were picked up by their own troops on their own warships.
As soon as the war began, the port of Hodeidah became a gathering place for expatriates and refugees, all of whom wanted to leave the war-torn country. After the airport lost its effectiveness, the port became the only place to leave. A large number of expatriates from various countries have gathered here, including those from Western countries, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and so on, and those countries that are constantly flaunting human rights and democracy are still arguing about whether and how to send warships.
What is completely certain is that the evacuation of overseas Chinese is not just a matter as simple as sending out one or two warships and a few planes.
The Chinese government has done a lot of preparatory work before that.
The four members of the Seawolf Special Combat Team, Zhao Yiyun, Shi Lei, Lin Yu and Geng Shuai, they felt depressed, at this moment they were bustling outside to welcome their compatriots to board the ship, and they were asked by Yang Zhiyuan to stay in the cabin and not go anywhere.
"This can be regarded as confinement, right?" Shi Lei said sullenly, he couldn't care so much, so he took out a cigarette and lit it.
Geng Shuai looked at him and said, "It's not good to eat alone. ”
Shi Lei threw the cigarette over and said, "Isn't there not enough manpower, why don't you let us go out to help?"
Zhao Yiyun took a sip of boiling water and glanced at Shi Lei, "You don't know our identity, there are many people outside, and the wolf head is afraid of being exposed." ”
"What is exposed and not exposed. We are wearing the camouflage uniforms of the navy, how can we be exposed when we are incorporated into the Marine Corps and guarded outside?" Shi Lei was very puzzled.
Lin Yu looked at Zhao Yiyun and said, "Old Zhao, I also think the wolf's head is quite strange." There is no need to restrict our actions in this way. ”
Even Lin Yu, who was the least easy to express his opinion and relatively sluggish, felt strange, and this thing was very strange.
Zhao Yiyun didn't think of this, but because the identity of the Seawolf Special Combat Team was kept secret, what Yang Zhiyuan did was within the scope of being understood, so he couldn't think of any other reason that would make Yang Zhiyuan explicitly order the Seawolf Special Combat Team not to leave the cabin for the first time.
Spit out a puff of cigarette, Geng Shuai's brows furrowed slightly, "You say, is there something wrong with Lao Li and Lao Du, they have been out for several days." ”
"No, it won't. Shi Lei shook his head categorically, "Squad leader, how could something happen to them." As far as the few broken guns of the Houthi armed forces are concerned, Nengnai squad leader He, besides, Du Xiaofan is not a straw bag, the two of them combined, it is more than enough to protect one person. ”
"Of course I hope so. Geng Shuai said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that something will happen." ”
"What could happen?" Zhao Yiyun turned his head to look over and stared at Geng Shuai.
Geng Shuai found that everyone else was looking at him, shook his head helplessly, spread his hands, and said, "Okay, I won't speak." ”
Shi Lei couldn't help it, he said to Zhao Yiyun, "I said Lao Zhao, why don't you go and ask the wolf head, what is the situation, the warships are docked at this time, there must be news." I didn't see anyone come back. ”
"The place we went to is called Hodeida Port, Lao Li and they went to the port of Aden, a difference of seven or eight hundred kilometers, even if they come back, they will not be reluctant to go back to the near and far back period, they must go back to another 052C, they are not the port of Aden. Zhao Yiyun said.
"Anyway, there's news, right? Shi Lei said with a glare.
Zhao Yiyun looked at him impatiently and said, "If you want to ask, don't blame me for not reminding you, the wolf head has already made it very clear that we can't leave the cabin for half a step." ”
Shi Lei snorted coldly, "I knew you wouldn't dare." The squad leader is not there, but you are the commander, if you don't ask, you want me to ask, okay, I'll go. ”
With that, Shi Lei got up and walked out.
"Stone, you stop!" Zhao Yiyun called out to him.
Shi Lei stood in front of the hatch and looked back at Zhao Yiyun.
Zhao Yiyun walked over, stared at Shi Lei, pushed him away violently, and walked out.
Yang Zhiyuan was in the command center of the bridge, and it was not his turn to be interviewed or anything, and he was not suitable to do this job, of course, it was most suitable for Major General Fang to go. Yang Zhiyuan is responsible for the safety of the anchorage, including around the dock and outside the port.
In this chaotic environment, stopped warships are the most vulnerable. Yang Zhiyuan had to make careful arrangements so as not to repeat the mistakes of the US Navy. Moreover, it is very likely that pirates will take advantage of this war to loot the port. There's nothing a pirate can't do.
Zhao Yiyun went all the way unimpeded, and his lieutenant collar badge was a powerful pass.
Coming to the bridge command center, Yang Zhiyuan was standing in front of the screen looking at the real-time monitoring pictures in all directions.
"Report!" Zhao Yiyun immediately typed a report.
Yang Zhiyuan turned his head and immediately frowned.
Walking in front of Zhao Yiyun, Yang Zhiyuan stared at him and said, "Did I say that without my approval, you are not allowed to leave the cabin for half a step." ”
"If you go back to the wolf's head, I have disobeyed your orders. Zhao Yiyun said in a deep voice, "But before you punish me, I will ask about the shepherds and demeanor on behalf of the Seawolf Special Combat Team. Wolf Head, what the hell happened to them?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" Yang Zhiyuan was furious, "Copy the confidentiality code a hundred times, everyone, go back!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Yiyun stood up and saluted, turned to leave. (To be continued.) )
