Riverside Police.

Chapter 1341 Logistics Support Command!
The whole country is supporting Xichuan's earthquake relief efforts.

The fire department and local public security special police went there. The medical team that set off today was the third batch. People from the railway and communications departments also went there. Only the Maritime Administration did not receive any orders from its superiors.

Director Yue could no longer sit still. Thinking of what Deputy Director Liu mentioned yesterday, that Han Yu's old unit and old comrades were all in Xichuan for earthquake relief, and that the Maritime Public Security Bureau had already mobilized for donations, he asked his office to call Han Yu and invite him to come to the bureau.

Han Yu thought the leader was going to ask about the Olympic water security, so he rushed over. Unexpectedly, as soon as he saw the bureau leader, the bureau leader asked about the situation in the disaster area.

"Director Yue, all the things you asked about have been reported in the news."

"I'm asking about the earthquake relief work."

"The situation is not good." Han Yu took a deep breath and reported: "My mother-in-law is from Xichuan. In her words, she only knew that the road to Sichuan was difficult, as difficult as climbing to the sky! But on the way to the epicenter, she realized that the road to western Sichuan was even more difficult."

Director Yue asked Director Liu, who had just come in, to sit down and asked, "How difficult is it?"

"The mountains were rocky and there were constant aftershocks. The already twisting mountain road suffered a large-scale landslide. Some of the boulders lying on the road weighed hundreds of tons, and rocks could fall from the cliffs at any time. Not only could cars not get in, but even people could not get through. She and my wife's uncle, who is also her brother, my brother-in-law, my sister-in-law and other medical team members could only carry their medicine boxes and ask a guide to take them over the mountains and take the small path to get in."

"Your mother-in-law, your brother-in-law, and your sister-in-law are all there?"

"Not only them, my parents are there too."

"How did they get there?"

"My mother-in-law is from Xichuan. In recent years, she has been helping us take care of our children and has not had time to visit her hometown in Xichuan. So I went back on a self-driving tour some time ago, but I didn't expect to catch the earthquake..."

Han Yu briefly introduced the situation at home. Director Yue was stunned and couldn't believe that so many people went to his house.

Director Liu knew Han Yu well, so he was not surprised. Instead, he said thoughtfully, "Linghai Reserve Battalion is a reserve battalion jointly built by our transportation system and Linghai. Even if the main force going this time is Linghai Road and Bridge Company, Linghai Road and Bridge Company still belongs to the transportation system."

"Yes, Linghai Road and Bridge sent twelve excavators and six loaders this time. Their main task is to open the road as quickly as possible together with the Armed Police Hydropower Corps, Xichuan Road and Bridge and other units." Han Yu thought about it and said solemnly: "Those roads destroyed by the earthquake and the landslides and mud-rock flows caused by the earthquake are connected to time and life. They must be opened as soon as possible. After all, there is hope only when there is a road."

"What about rescue?"

"The Binjiang Port Enterprise Fire Brigade went there, led by Lao Xu, the fire brigade commander of the Changhang Binjiang Branch. They entered the epicenter together with the rescue company of the Linghai Reserve Battalion and are racing against time to save lives."

"How did they get in?"

"We also took a small path and rushed there. Old Xu contacted me by satellite phone this morning and said the scene was horrific."

"Binjiang Port Group also belongs to the transportation system."

"Director Liu, are you saying..."

Director Liu did not answer Han Yu's question, but turned around and said, "Director Yue, when Xianyu led the team to Beihu to fight the flood in 98, it was the Changjiang Navigation Bureau that was responsible for the logistics support for the Linghai Reserve Battalion. The cadres and staff of our Maritime Safety Administration are no problem in water rescue, and there is no place for them to go to Xichuan, but we can set up a logistics support headquarters to provide the best possible logistics support for the various units of the transportation system that are currently in Xichuan for earthquake relief."

"This is a good idea, Xianyu, what do you think?" Director Yue looked at Han Yu.

Han Yu realized that the two bureau leaders did not want to just mobilize cadres and employees to donate money, so he quickly said, "Two leaders, it would be great if the bureau could set up a logistics support command center. The front line really needs it."

"Really?"

"I really need it!"

Han Yu opened his briefcase, took out his notebook, and reported as he read: "I mobilized our Maritime Public Security Bureau to donate yesterday. Because we are small in number and our comrades' salaries are not very high, we didn't raise much money. We could only squeeze out a few tens of thousands from office expenses and activity funds.

This morning, I called Captain Yang of the Linghai Reserve Battalion to ask if we could help them purchase the supplies they urgently needed. I didn’t expect that they needed a lot of things because they were in a hurry and not well prepared. The money raised by our Maritime Public Security Bureau was not enough. Fortunately, they had funds in their battalion and entrusted me to help them purchase in the East China Sea. "

“What supplies do they need?”

"There are people in the camp who are in charge of logistics. If they can purchase goods nearby, they will arrange for people to do so. What we lack most now are spare parts for construction machinery. There are not even a few excavators in the local area, so it is difficult to purchase spare parts."

"We have it in the East China Sea. We will help them purchase it!"

"Xianyu, tell me more specifically what spare parts they need!"

"That's a lot. They transported 12 excavators from Binjiang and transferred three from Beihu. The wearing parts of the excavators alone are divided into several categories, including chassis parts, lubrication system, power transmission system, excavation device, travel system, steering system and hydraulic system."

Han Yu looked at the purchase list that Yang Jianbo had sent him over the satellite phone that morning, and listed them one by one: "For the chassis, they need bucket tooth tips, track shoes, and rollers, etc.; the lubrication system needs grease guns, grease oil suction pans, and joystick bullet heads, etc.; the power transmission system needs bearings, V-belts, couplings, seals, etc...."

Bucket, dipper rod, boom, pin, bushing, sealing ring, supporting wheel, guide wheel, sprocket, tug, track shoe, travel motor, slewing motor, slewing bearing, boom cylinder, dipper rod cylinder, bucket cylinder, dozer cylinder and battery valve, sensor, relay, lock, bearing, coupling, pneumatic spring, bracket...

There are hundreds of items when all added up.

Han Yu briefly reported, thought about it and explained: "In fact, they were not completely unprepared, but they did not expect that the damage to the roads in the disaster area was more serious than previously expected. In addition, many places were simply too small to operate, and could only accommodate one excavator. In order to improve the efficiency of rescue, the local earthquake relief headquarters divided them into more than a dozen rescue and construction teams. The farthest team was hundreds of miles away, and the originally prepared spare parts were not enough."

"If it's not enough, we will be responsible for purchasing!"

"Really?"

"What are you talking about?" Director Yue asked back, clenching his fists and saying, "You have few police officers, but many maritime officials and staff. Let's mobilize donations, and the bureau can squeeze out a little more funds. We will bear the cost of purchasing these vulnerable parts, and the funds of the Linghai Reserve Battalion will be kept for disaster relief."

"Director Yue, the Linghai Reserve Battalion has funds."

"Although I am not a reserve officer, I am not completely ignorant of the situation of the reserve forces. They may have funds, but it is impossible for them to have that much."

Director Liu agreed and patted Han Yu's arm: "It's settled. We are a state-owned enterprise, not a company. The donations we raise can be used where they are needed most. It's not like corporate donations that require charities to issue certificates so that they can enjoy preferential policies in the future."

The reserve forces don’t have much funding, but you don’t know that the Linghai Reserve Battalion has a senior expert who can make money!
Thinking that 18 million yuan could do a lot in the disaster area, Han Yu simply stopped explaining and readily agreed: "Okay, I'll call Commander Yang Jianbo and Instructor Sun Youyi of the Linghai Reserve Battalion."

"Hurry up and make it clear to Comrade Yang Jianbo and Comrade Sun Youyi that the transportation industry is one family. We are proud to have comrades like them, and we will do our best to provide them with logistical support."

"Yes!"

Director Liu felt that one should leave a name for good deeds, so he weighed the pros and cons and proposed, "Director Yue, Xianyu is the old battalion commander of the Linghai Reserve Battalion. Xianyu can serve as the representative of the Linghai Reserve Battalion in Donghai. Do you think our bureau should also arrange for a comrade to go to Xichuan to represent our bureau in the liaison work between the logistics support headquarters and the front line?"

Director Yue felt that what Deputy Director Liu said made sense, and he knocked on the table and said, "It is necessary, very necessary!"

"Why don't we ask Lao Chen to come over? He's a retired military cadre and has something in common with the comrades in the Linghai Reserve Battalion."

"I think it's okay. Go and inform Lao Chen right away."

Han Yu really wanted to say let me go, but he could only think about it.

As the opening of the Olympic Games approaches, foreign dignitaries frequently visit China, and some of them will come to the East China Sea. Whenever they come to the East China Sea, they will be arranged to cruise the river. Whenever foreign dignitaries cruise the river, they will take the official ships of the Maritime Safety Administration, and the Maritime Public Security Bureau will be responsible for the water security work during the cruise.

Diplomacy is no small matter.

Every time there is a security mission like this, Han Yu, the Public Security Bureau Chief, has to participate in the entire process and he can't leave at this time.

While he was leaving to make a phone call with great regret, Director Yue was also in his office making a phone call to the State Maritime Safety Administration. The State Maritime Safety Administration praised the East China Sea Maritime Safety Administration for its initiative and even planned to have several surrounding maritime bureaus remit donations to the logistics support headquarters to be established by the East China Sea Maritime Safety Administration, which would be solely responsible for providing logistics support to the Linghai Reserve Battalion.

Director Yue put down the phone and was just thinking that it was worth asking Xianyu to come here today, when Han Yu knocked on the door and returned to the office.

"Xianyu, what did Comrade Yang Jianbo say?"

"Reporting to Director Yue, Comrade Jianbo has entrusted me to express the most sincere gratitude to our East China Sea Maritime Affairs on behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the battalion. They welcome the bureau to arrange a special person to be responsible for communication and liaison."

"I will personally serve as the chief commander of the logistics support headquarters, and you will serve as the deputy chief commander and be responsible for the specific work."

"Yes!"

The leader is very powerful and I must tell him a good news.

Han Yu weighed the pros and cons, suppressed his excitement and said, "Director Yue, Comrade Jianbo told me something when I was talking to him on the phone just now."

"What's the matter?" Director Yue asked curiously.

"The General Staff is visiting the area where they are carrying out emergency rescue work. Comrade Sun Youyi, the instructor of the Linghai Reserve Battalion, and Comrade Ge Weidong, a senior expert in the battalion, are reporting to the General Staff on the emergency repair work."

"Why isn't it the battalion commander who's reporting?"

"General L knew Engineer Ge and Teacher Sun, also known as Mr. Sun of Linghai Road and Bridge Company, ten years ago. He was deeply impressed by them."

"And to you?"

“I think I have some impression of him.”

"It's a pity you can't leave, otherwise you should go!"

The Maritime Public Security Bureau is under the Maritime Administration. Han Yu could understand the director's feelings and said quickly, "Don't worry, Director Yue. Captain Yang said that he would tell Engineer Ge and General Manager Sun that our Maritime Administration provided them with logistical support. Engineer Ge and General Manager Sun will definitely help us report to General Manager L."

Fearing that the director would not believe him, Han Yu added, "General L did not bring many of his entourage with him. There are serious landslides over there, and it is raining heavily. Mud and sand flow may occur at any time. The commander of the accompanying guard unit is familiar with the situation of our Linghai Reserve Battalion. He specifically asked my senior brother and other officers and soldiers to escort General L to the epicenter."

"Not enough guards?"

"That's not entirely true. The head of the security force should consider that if we encounter sudden dangers such as mudslides, my senior brother and his men will be relatively professional in dealing with them and can ensure the safety of the entire group to the greatest extent." Han Yu paused and reminded, "Director Yue, this matter must be kept confidential. You only need to know about it and cannot tell anyone else."

"I understand. Well done." Director Yue patted Han Yu's arm and said with emotion: "If President L comes to Donghai to inspect the work and swim in the river, you must participate in the security throughout the whole process."
