Chapter 724 Life of Pi
Chapter 724 Life of Pi
"Is it an enemy?"
"Spy, or what?"
"No, he seems to be a fisherman."
"Fishermen? How could they possibly come to such a place at this hour? And why does this boat seem to have no engine?"
Qin Feng could see clearly through the rain that not only did the boat have no engine, but even the driver was not yet an adult!
"Help, help..."
Hearing the cry for help, Jiang Shan quickly moved the boat over.
Only then did they realize that the suspicious ship they had seen earlier was actually just a green plastic fishing boat.
There was only a little boy about ten years old on the boat, and the two oars in his hands were the only source of power for the boat.
A few minutes later, the little boy and the boat were brought up.
Everyone quickly found a towel to wipe his body, and brought him some simple food such as milk, bread, and sausage.
After the little boy took it, he ate it ravenously and almost choked so much that his eyes popped out.
Qin Feng squatted beside him and patted his back: "Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke."
The little boy seemed not to hear and continued to stuff food into his mouth.
The way he ate voraciously looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.
Qin Feng was really afraid that the food would block his throat and choke him to death.
After he had some food in his stomach, the boy told his story.
"I was out fishing, and I couldn't find my way home."
"where is your house?"
"My home is in xx. I came out to fish with my father. I've been floating on the sea for two days..."
Hearing that the little boy had been drifting on the sea for two days and had drifted from the eastern coast, everyone, including Qin Feng, widened their eyes.
Oh my god, Life of Pi!
He drifted from the eastern waters to the southern waters, and not only did he survive such a long distance, but he also didn't make much noise after getting on the boat. This kid has such a strong mental strength!
Jiang Shan squatted down right after him and said with a smile, "You're so brave! When I send you back, your father will beat your butt and skin you alive."
The little boy looked at him and said nothing. He just ate bread and drank milk.
Seeing that the kid was not afraid at all, Jiang Shan's face showed even more joy. This kid is born to be a navy.
"Little boy, what's your name and how old are you?"
"My name is Zhang Miao, and I'm eleven years old."
"Oh my, what a great name!"
Everyone in the Beast Camp smiled.
At the age of eleven, he could drift on the sea for two days and remained so calm after being rescued.
There are three water characters in the name, which seems to be quite relevant to their navy.
"Little Zhang Miao, how about joining the navy when you grow up?" Wu Honggang squatted down and said with a smile on his face.
"Not good." Zhang Miao shook his head while drinking yogurt.
"What?"
"No reason, I just want to be a fisherman."
"..."
"Fisherman, fishing soul, fishing can make you a better person!"
Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Pengfei and others also covered their stomachs and laughed.
A bunch of grown men were teasing the kids, but ended up being teased by the kids themselves.
Jiang Shan, Wu Honggang and others also had embarrassment written all over their faces, so they didn't mention the matter anymore.
Just let him go. A good man has ambitions. Once he knows what a fisherman is and can catch anything except fish, he will give up.
......
At this time, the wind and waves on the sea were getting stronger and stronger, and some waves were even four or five meters high.
It is definitely unrealistic to return to the port now as his ship has limited tonnage.
If you choose to return rashly, accidents are likely to occur.
So they still followed the original plan and stopped at a nearby island to rest.
We will return tomorrow when the wind and waves are smaller, and send this kid who aspires to be a fisherman back with us.
But during this process, Jiang Shan kept trying to contact the shore and prepare to report the action.
After all, every naval ship must strictly abide by rules and regulations when going out to sea.
You need to report to your superiors in advance about what sea areas you are visiting, what activities you are engaging in, and what training you are undertaking.
The wind and waves came suddenly, and before they had time to report it, the signal seemed to have been interfered with, making it impossible to establish contact with the command center on the shore.
However, in the end, after many attempts, Jiang Shan successfully established contact with the command center on shore and obtained approval from his superiors, allowing them to return safely before noon tomorrow.
......
Half an hour later, the ship docked at a pier near the island.
Although the island is not located near the coast, the nearby waters are rich in marine resources.
Therefore, many fishermen who make a living by fishing choose to settle down and reproduce here.
Perhaps because it was the first time they saw a navy ship approaching, the fishermen on the island all looked surprised.
Even in the heavy rain, they all came to the dock to watch curiously and join in the fun.
Because they needed to borrow someone's place to rest temporarily, Jiang Shan asked someone to lower the boat ladder, and then went down with some canned food and daily necessities to say hello to the people.
"Hey, fellow soldiers, if you want to dock, just dock. There's no need to be so polite."
The village chief felt really bad when he saw them taking so many daily necessities.
So he wanted to invite Jiang Shan, Wu Honggang, Qin Feng and others to his home for a meal and some drinks.
Wu Honggang was quite willing to do so. The sea was very humid and there was a storm there, so it would be nice to drink some wine to warm himself up.
But Qin Feng and Jiang Shan had no such thoughts. It was already a disturbance to borrow someone else's place for temporary docking, not to mention that they were on a mission and it was not suitable to drink at all.
Seeing that the two disagreed, Wu Honggang had no choice but to give up.
After a brief greeting, they prepared to return to the ship.
There was enough space in the cabin for the soldiers to rest, so they tried not to disturb the locals as much as possible.
But just when Qin Feng and his companions were about to return to the boat, a middle-aged man was suddenly pulled and pushed out by his wife.
"You coward, if there's anything you're afraid to say, just say it!"
"I, I don't know what to say."
"Just tell me what happened to us. You're not afraid of anything... I'm so unlucky to marry you. You're such a coward and you have no backbone at all!"
Qin Feng looked at the quarreling couple and asked with some confusion: "Is there something wrong with you?"
The middle-aged man quickly took a step back and kept shaking his head: "It's okay, it's okay, nothing happened."
Qin Feng didn't think much about it, and was stopped by the man's wife just as he was about to leave.
"Leader, we have something to discuss!"
Qin Feng, Jiang Shan and Wu Honggang all turned around and looked at the woman curiously.
The woman shook off her husband's hand and said angrily, "I've had enough of you! There's no need to be so secretive about this kind of thing. It's not something that can't be made public!"
"Leaders, this is what happened. We just returned from the sea and saw many fishing boats from other countries sneaking into our waters!"
"After they discovered us, they sent two ships to surround us and rammed us several times. Fortunately, we encountered a storm, otherwise we might not have been able to return!"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers were suddenly in an uproar, obviously they had not expected such a thing to happen.
So they began to condemn the men for being cowardly and afraid of other countries' ships coming to our waters.
They even blatantly rammed our ship, and they didn't even dare to say anything about it. They are so cowardly and useless.
Qin Feng and his companions also frowned. When they were approaching the port earlier, he did see scratches on the right rear side of a fishing boat.
They then asked for some details, but didn't get much useful information.
The three of them returned to the cabin and held a brief meeting in the captain's room to discuss how to deal with the situation.
Wu Honggang: "I think we should report it first and see what they say."
Qin Feng shook his head. "It's useless to report it now. The wind and waves are too strong. Even if we send someone, it will take until tomorrow. These fishing boats chose extreme weather to enter our waters. It's obvious that they have ulterior motives."
"I think it's best for us to conduct a general investigation first, understand their general intentions, the number of people, and whether they are carrying weapons, and then report back."
Jiang Shan nodded. "I agree with you. If we rashly report to the higher-ups based solely on the fishermen's words, the leader will only need a few more questions and we'll be clueless."
"We are an amphibious reconnaissance force. Reconnaissance of enemy situations at sea is our forte. Pre-investigation and understanding of the situation is our top priority."
Seeing that Qin Feng and Jiang Shan were so unanimous in their opinions, Wu Honggang suddenly felt that he was a little redundant.
Qin Feng is now in charge of training troops at the naval training ground and is a true training instructor.
Although Jiang Shan is the team leader, he is more like a political worker, focusing on ideological life.
The two not only work together in perfect harmony, but are also surprisingly consistent in their opinions and decisions.
It was said that the three of them held a meeting, and as a result, the two of them unanimously rejected Wu Honggang's decision.
So, it doesn’t matter whether the Beast Camp is here or not!
Then I leave, then I leave?
