"Great, someone finally received our signal!"

A familiar Chinese voice came from the radio.

"Damn it. It's our Chinese ship."

Wang Husheng also did not expect that the ship that was hit this time was actually a fishing boat from China like them.

"Wang Husheng, turn on the radar immediately, Ding Yi, approach the ship in distress as quickly as possible."

After hearing that it was a Chinese fishing boat, Ye Yuan immediately gave the order.

At sea, as long as a ship sends a distress signal, no matter which country it is, the ship must try its best to rescue it.

Not to mention, the fishing boat that died this time belonged to China.

Ye Yuan and the others would not ignore them.

Even though it was raining heavily outside, Ye Yuan did not hesitate.

"25 nautical miles ahead right"

Wang Husheng found the location of the signal source through the gmdss system.

Ding Yi directly changed the sailing direction and drove towards the right front of Yushui at the fastest speed.

Wang Husheng looked outside through the cockpit glass.

The waves are at least 5 meters high at this moment.

With such waves, even the Royal Water Cruiser began to have obvious ups and downs.

"I wonder if that ship can hold out until we arrive!"

Looking at the waves outside the boat, Wang Husheng muttered quietly.

"Boss, have you ever thought about it?

Even if we get there, the lifeboat cannot fit in such a big wave, so how can the people on the opposite boat get over?"

Yu Hongbo is indeed an old squad leader, and he has always been forward-looking in thinking about problems.

The question he asked at this moment was exactly what Ye Yuan was thinking about.

After half an hour of sailing, the Royal Water finally approached the location of the shipwrecked ship.

When the Yushui sailed into this sea area, Ding Yi accurately captured the location of the shipwrecked ship without Ye Yuan saying a word.

I saw a black spot in the distance, rising and falling with the waves, looking precarious.

Ye Yuan and the others were right. This was indeed a Chinese fishing boat.

And it's a small iron fishing boat.

"Why did such a small fishing boat come so far?"

When several people saw the appearance of the fishing boat clearly, Wang Husheng said in disbelief.

The Royal Water stopped moving forward when it came not far from the distressed fishing boat.

In such strong wind and waves, if two ships are too close together, it is easy for them to collide.

What's more, since the opponent's fishing boat is obviously at a standstill, Yushui will not dare to approach easily.

Ye Yuan picked up the intercom, used an external speaker to shout to the fishing boats on the opposite side, and reminded them to adjust their radios to the designated frequency band.

Soon, the other party's voice came over the radio.

"Thank you so much. Our fishing boat has been shut down and there is water leakage now!"

As soon as the radio came through, the anxious voice of the captain on the opposite side was heard.

"What should I do, boss?"

Wang Husheng and Yu Hongbo both looked at Ye Yuan at this time.

Ye Yuan did not answer the two people's questions, but said to Ding Yi:

"Try to get as close as possible to the other party's fishing boat, but we must ensure the safety of our fishing boat, understand?"

"clear!"

Ding Yi replied decisively.

Ye Yuan is still very reassured about Ding Yi's driving skills.

He ignored the cockpit and walked onto the deck alone in the heavy rain.

Yu Hongbo saw Ye Yuan walking onto the deck alone and followed him out.

The crew in the cabin did not know what was happening in the cockpit.

But I saw Ye Yuan and Yu Hongbo walking out of the cockpit.

Ma Hua and You Zhiyong also ran out of the cabin.

"Boss! What! What!?"

Because of the strong wind, Ma Hua asked loudly.

"Go and get the rope. I'm going to make a zipline and throw it to the fishing boat opposite."

Ye Yuan saw You Zhiyong and Ma Hua and had no time to explain to them at this time.

Orders were immediately given to the two of them.

Ma Hua ran directly back to the cabin and brought out a bundle of thick hemp rope.

Ye Yuan found a used tire on the boat and tied it to one end of the rope.

Why are there used tires on fishing boats?

That's because sometimes they are needed to block some crab pots to prevent them from hitting each other.

The rope at the other end was firmly fixed on the side of the ship by Ye Yuan.

At this moment, the fingertip distance between Yushui and the distressed fishing boat seemed to be more than ten meters.

Ye Yuan picked up the tire and threw it with all his strength.

The tire drove the rope and landed steadily on the opponent's fishing boat.

At this moment, someone from the fishing boat opposite also rushed out of the deck and fixed the rope to their own boat.

Having done all this is not the end.

On the contrary, the most dangerous moment begins when the two ships are connected by ropes.

If there is a problem with one of the two ships, it is very likely to affect the other's fishing boat.

Not only Ye Yuan knew this, but even the other party's crew members also knew this.

Without looking, 5.6 crew members also ran out of the other fishing boat, and they began to prepare for rescue in a hurry.

Ye Yuan found the zipline and hung it on the rope connected to the two fishing boats.

Then attach a lifebuoy to the zip line.

Finally, a rope was tied to each of the two sections of the survival circle, one end was given to Yu Hongbo, and the other was taken into his own hands.

Seeing what Ye Yuan did, several crew members on the deck knew exactly what Ye Yuan was going to do.

Ma Hua quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Boss, no, you can't go there, it's too dangerous, I'll go!"

Ye Yuan glanced at Ma Hua, and then at the crew members who were looking at him.

Finally, he patted Ma Hua on the shoulder:

"I am the captain, and everything is at my command."

After saying that, he climbed onto the lifebuoy and slid directly to the other party's fishing boat.

Because the hull of the Waterbender is much taller than the opponent's ship.

So it is still very easy to slide over from the Waterbender.

When Ye Yuan arrived on the fishing boat in distress, a middle-aged man stepped forward quickly.

She held his hand gratefully and said with excitement:

"Thank you! Thank you brother!"

"Is anyone on board injured?"

At this moment, Ye Yuan knew how dangerous it was for them to do this, so he had no time to be polite to this man.

"No!"

The man also knew that now was not the time to be polite, so he quickly replied.

"Then start transferring the crew members, moving the older ones first."

Ye Yuan was not polite to the other party and directly began to direct the rescue.

"How about that? Brother, you go back first. Your coming over to deliver the zipline is already the greatest help. How can I ask you to stay here?"

The middle-aged man refused to let his crew members go first!

"Why is there so much nonsense? Just do what I say. Stop talking nonsense. I have the final say now!"

Ye Yuan didn't want to waste time with the man on who should leave first.

He directly took the initiative.

The man also knew that time was tight and his fishing boat might capsize at any time, so he glanced at the crew members beside him and said:

"Lang Yu, you go first!"

Ye Yuan glanced at the crew member named Lang Yu. Judging from his appearance, he couldn't be more than 20 years old at most, and he looked very young.

"captain!"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you keep trying, I'll kick you into the sea."

Lang Yu wiped his face that was filled with tears or rain.

Quickly ride on the lifebuoy, and then hold on to the zipline with both hands.

When Yu Hongbo saw that someone was already on the lifebuoy, he immediately pulled the rope with the crew.

The lifebuoy slowly slides from bottom to top.

Because all the crew members on the Waterbending were on the deck, the zipline moved very quickly.

When Lang Yu was successfully rescued to the Yushui, Ye Yuan began to pull the rope, because he was pulling from high to low, and it was an empty lifebuoy.

So the lifebuoy comes back much faster than it did in the past.

Then, the second, the third, the fourth...

In the end, all eight crew members on the ship were successfully rescued aboard the Yushui, leaving only Ye Yuan and the middle-aged man from before.

"Brother, you go first, this fishing boat is mine, and I will never leave the fishing boat!"

Ye Yuan did not expect that at this time, the middle-aged man would actually say such a sentence.

"Get the hell out of here! Do you know what will happen to you if you stay?"

Ye Yuan was angered by the middle-aged man's words.

He really didn't expect that there are people who really want money rather than their lives!

Although Ye Yuan could understand the man's mood.

Maybe this fishing boat is his entire net worth.

It may even be more serious, after all, some people bought fishing boats with loans.

But compared with lives, fishing boats are nothing, right?

Besides, Huaguo fishing boats must purchase designated insurance during the annual inspection, otherwise they will not even pass the annual inspection.

Since there is insurance, Ye Yuan really doesn't know what the man is worried about.

The man wanted to say something else, but at this time the fishing boat had obviously begun to tilt sideways and rearward.

Ma Hua and others stood on the Yushui, shouting with mission.

They didn't understand why there were only two of them and they didn't come over quickly.

If the other side's fishing boat really rolls over, not to mention the people on the opposite boat, even the Yushui will be in certain danger.

"Go away quickly, do you want to kill me?"

Ye Yuan was really anxious when he saw the situation of the fishing boat, so his tone of voice began to become stronger.

The middle-aged man glanced at his fishing boat, then at Ye Yuan, and finally stamped his feet onto the lifebuoy.

At this moment, none of the crew members who passed by had entered the cabin of the Water Royal. All of them, like the crew of the Water Royal, stood on the deck and pulled the rope hard.

The man successfully arrived at Yushui, and the lifebuoy was returned to Ye Yuan's hands.

However, at this moment, the degree of rollover of the distressed fishing boat has reached a critical point.

The rope connecting the two fishing boats was pulled straight.

Ye Yuan quickly jumped onto the lifebuoy, and then let the other party pull the rope hard.

Just when Ye Yuan was only 3 meters away from Yushui, the distressed fishing boat was suddenly hit by a wave.

This causes the fishing boat to roll over faster.

Not only that, even the Waterbender was in danger of capsized.

Ye Yuan quickly took out the dagger from his waist, firmly grasped the rope with one hand, and cut the rope behind him with force with the other hand.

If he doesn't do this, there are only two consequences.

One is that the fishing boat on the opposite side capsizes, taking the Yumizu with it.

Another possibility is that the rope broke because it could not withstand the pulling force of the two ships.

If the Yushui were to roll over, it would be impossible for Ye Yuan to accept even if he was beaten to death.
