Chapter 11 A long day (1)

After the fleet sailed far out of the harbor, it seemed that the city could still be heard in the sea breeze. It was chosen to start the final crossing operation at midnight on April 1st. This was the decision of the Executive Committee several months ago.

It was confirmed. Fortunately, the weather conditions on this day were very ideal, and the sea was calm. It seemed that the seasickness among the members that the executive committee was very worried about in advance would not occur.

Two-thirds of the more than 400 members were gathered on the New World, the largest tonnage. Members gathered in small groups on the deck, excitedly discussing future plans. Many people silently

Looking back at the sea level in the north, it seems that in this way, I am saying a final farewell to the old time and space I lived in. Everyone knows that at this time, even if they regret it, there is no way back.

The only thing I can do now is to stand up and welcome the unknown new world.

Leading the way were two catamaran sailboats under the name of the North American Gang. After traveling half the world, this group of crews only rested for less than a week before immediately throwing themselves into the final action. Their strength was so powerful that they

The people who had the most doubts about the North American Gang previously also kept their mouths shut. Moreover, the crew did not rest in the past few days. They rented a dry berth at the sailing port and performed a comprehensive maintenance on the hull. Since these ships

It is loaded with a large amount of munitions, and all the maintenance work is completed by the crew themselves, and the workload is not small. Fortunately, the executive committee has already purchased all kinds of supplies, spare sails, etc. and installed them directly.

Just take a boat and save a lot of time.

Following closely behind was a tugboat driven by Yue Zhiyun himself, which was pulling a string of unpowered barges. The barges were mainly filled with various oils, building materials and agricultural supplies. The four hundred-ton vessels were controlled by newly-recruited crew members.

The iron-hulled fishing boats were sailing a hundred meters away from the long string of barges. In order to maximize the use of shipping tonnage, even the cabins and decks of these four small boats were filled with various supplies.

The waterline of the ship is almost as high as that of a barge.

Then came the retired landing craft, which carried various dock construction materials, two JCB 3cx multi-function excavators and two Bobcat 5600 multi-function vehicles. This excavator combines the functions of excavation and loading, and can also

Various functions such as forklifts and bulldozers can be realized by replacing construction parts. The smaller and more flexible Bobcat multi-function vehicle also has the functions of loader, small excavator, etc., and also has a dump bucket at the rear of the body.

, can be used as a small pickup truck.

Following at the end is the main force of the fleet, the "New World". Two movable searchlights are specially installed on the bow. From time to time, the lights are used to sweep the sea in front to remind other ships to maintain the correct direction. This arrangement is also arranged by the Ministry of Shipping.

In order to ensure that all the ships in the entire fleet will not leave the fleet and sail in the wrong direction in the dark.

After all, most of the captains in this fleet are still novices who have only undergone emergency training for a few months, so the speed of the entire fleet can be described as extremely slow. About an hour after sailing out of the channel between Dongdao and Sanya Cape, each ship

The ship began to slowly adjust its speed under the command of the "New World" and began to move closer to the position of the main ship. Although there were inevitably some bumps and various minor problems during this short voyage, we finally arrived safely.

The scheduled assembly point at sea.

At 2:35 in the morning, on the sea about seven nautical miles southeast of Luhuitoujiao, the "New World" had turned off its motor. Under the guidance of lights, other ships slowly came closer and surrounded the "New World".

It formed a circle. Since the radius of the docking area of ​​the fleet must be reduced as much as possible to ensure that all ships can be covered when the wormhole is opened, everyone in the shipping department was busy at the moment. The veterans took rubber boats to go to various locations.

Drive the ship yourself and complete the docking work.

It was busy like this until almost four o'clock, and the final assembly task at sea was finally completed. At this time, many members who had played too crazy the day before were already exhausted and were lying on the deck in a mess. Many people were still

There were bursts of snoring. This was actually not because they didn't want to go back to the cabin to rest, but because the entire ship was piled with cargo, and only women and children were assigned to the habitable crew living cabins.

The command members on the "New World" each used telescopes to confirm that all ships had arrived at their predetermined positions. Then the command command was heard on the radios on each ship: "Count down five minutes to prepare! Repeat! Count down five

Ready in minutes!”

After receiving the order, the members began to check each other's life jackets that they had put on early when leaving the port. Some people were already flushed with excitement, and some members who believed in Buddhism took the rosary beads in their hands and chanted with their eyes closed, while their parents

They hugged their sleeping children tightly. The oldest, Yuan Ruoxiu and Zhu Ping, looked at each other and smiled, and silently held their hands together.

Although Tao Donglai had imagined the scene in front of him countless times, when this moment came, his hand that picked up the walkie-talkie still couldn't help but tremble a little. He looked at his companions around him with either nervousness or expectation in their eyes.

Tao Donglai took a deep breath to calm down his emotions, and announced in a deep voice: "Operation Time Travel - Start!"

After saying that, he put down the walkie-talkie and pressed the wormhole controller. A green light lit up from the cockpit of the "New World" and quickly spread out in a hemispheric shape. The members only felt a flash of green light in front of their eyes, and their minds suddenly

Some were dizzy. The members of the executive committee, who had been trained many times, were already holding telescopes outside the cockpit to confirm the scope of the wormhole. When all the positive news came back from the observers, Tao Donglai

Released the wormhole controller.

"Confirm the current location immediately! Confirm the safety of the personnel immediately!" Tao Donglai ordered non-stop.

“Everything is fine with the tug!”

"Everything is normal on the fishing boat 01!"

"Everything is fine with the landing craft!"

"No signal! Both GPS and Beidou have no signal!" Sun Changmi, who had been staring at the navigation device, shouted excitedly, completely covering up the sound coming from the walkie-talkie.

"The mobile phone signal is gone!" Ning Qi's voice was no louder than Sun Changmi's. When he set off, he specially placed five mobile phones of different brands and signal standards in the cockpit. Now all five mobile phones have lost their signal.

"Speed ​​and Lightning began reconnaissance operations immediately!" After confirming that all ships were in normal condition, Yan Chujie grabbed the walkie-talkie and issued the military police department's first order after crossing.

"Speed" and "Lightning" are the two catamarans, one large and one small, owned by the North American gang. The reason why these two ships are used as reconnaissance outposts is because the two ships are inherently fast.

, the sails and the built-in power can easily run at a speed of twenty knots; secondly, the two ships are all experienced, and they can set off immediately after receiving the order, while the other ships are mostly novices. It is still dark at this time, Yan Chujie

We don't dare to let these novices out who are not even skilled at identifying directions at sea.

The anxious members did not wait too long. About thirty minutes later, the voice of Tom Wang, the captain of the "Speed" came over the intercom: "Our current position is less than one nautical mile southeast of Luhuitoujiao.

I didn’t find any ships on the sea, and I didn’t see any lights in Sanya city. I think we should have succeeded!”

Almost all the ships burst into cheers at the same moment, especially the members of the executive committee who couldn't restrain their excitement and hugged each other to greet each other. So many people have worked hard for a whole year, and so many people have risked their lives to leave their homes.

I gave up my original life in exchange for this opportunity to travel through time and space. Until this moment, I can finally confirm that all the previous efforts and contributions were not in vain!

On April 2, 1627, February 17, the seventh year of the Great Ming Dynasty, a total of 450 people from the crossing group successfully completed a collective crossing in the southern waters of Hainan Island!

In view of the fact that the satellite navigation system is no longer available and there are a large number of novice crew members, the command headquarters decided to rest for an hour and wait until it gets light before setting off. The only person on the ship who cannot rest is the logistics department, and they must start preparations immediately

Breakfast for these more than 400 people. The collective brick-moving activity after landing required a lot of physical strength. Before that, everyone had to be full. After issuing the order, the command headquarters helped everyone throughout the night.

The gentlemen also found their own places and took a nap as soon as possible.

At about 5:40 in the morning, a red sun rose slowly from the sea level in the distance. Unfortunately, most of the members were in a coma or semi-coma state at this time and missed the first beautiful scenery after crossing.

.

At six o'clock in the morning, the command center became busy again. The passengers on the "New World" began to wash up in batches and then received breakfast. Of course, the executive committee would not miss this opportunity to win people's hearts. Ning Qi and Bai Kesi brought two

He personally delivered hot breakfasts to each ship in a rubber boat, as well as care and encouragement from the executive committee. Yan Chujie took several people from the Military and Police Department to the two sailboats, claiming to be on the first ship.

The front line commander deployed the defense of the beachhead. Although he acted solemnly as if he was going to participate in the Normandy landing, in fact everyone knew that Yan Chujie just wanted to take advantage of his position and be the first to set foot on this beach.

It’s just the land of time and space.

After distributing breakfast, the fleet set sail again, heading due north and heading straight to Yuling Port.

The bay where Yulingang is located starts from Jinmujiao in the east and ends at Luhuitoujiao in the west. The bay covers an area of ​​more than 30 square kilometers. Yulingang is surrounded by mountains and is hidden deep in the bay. Whether it is a trading port or a military port, this bay has unique advantages.

Excellent geographical advantages and development prospects.

When the fleet sailed into the bay along the east side, people familiar with the place found that the long breakwater that penetrated deeply into the bay was no longer on the sea under Hutou Ridge, so everyone once again confirmed that they had

We are in a new time and space. However, when entering Yulin Port from the bay, we have to pass a pass, which is the narrow pass formed by the Yulin Peninsula that goes deep into the bay and the other side. After passing this pass, which is less than 500 meters wide, we can enter the future world.

The location of the famous Yulin Military Port.

Although two sailboats had already explored the channel in front, the entire fleet still had to adopt a long snake formation to pass here. The members who were ready to go gathered on the side of the ship, excitedly looking at this seemingly still in the water.

The future main base in a barbaric state.

"The Speed ​​​​has discovered human traces and activities! Repeat! The Speed ​​​​Speed ​​has discovered human traces and activities!" The voice from the intercom made the atmosphere in the command center immediately tense.
Chapter completed!
