Chapter 283: Spanish mackerel fishing in disputed seas

Gu Yu is the sixth solar term in the twenty-four solar terms and the last solar term in spring. The arrival of Gu Yu means that the cold wave weather is basically over and the temperature rises faster. The ancients used the saying of "rainy blooms 100 valleys", a folk saying "Spring rain is as expensive as oil" is an old saying.

For farmers, Gu Yu is the best time to plant seeds, transplant seedlings, and pick up beans. For fishermen, especially Qindao fishermen, this is also a very important solar term.

Because this time is the time when the local Spanish mackerel on Qindao is on the market.

There is a local saying in Qindao, ‘Guyu arrives, Bayu jumps, and the husband laughs. What I said is that in the rainy season, there will be fresh Spanish mackerel on the market. The custom on Qindao is that the son-in-law and the prospective son-in-law will give the old man a bay fish.

In Qindao, if a girl is born, he will jokingly say: "I have already set up the Bayu pond." It means that I am waiting for a son-in-law to send Bayu.

Qindao Spring Spanish Mackerel is famous for its delicacy. It is large in size, rich in meat, high in nutritional value, and has more flesh than spines. It can be said that it is one of the most popular sea fishes by the people of Qindao.

At this time of the year, the price of Spanish mackerel will be much more expensive. A kilo of normal-sized Spanish mackerel costs about 100 yuan, while giant Spanish mackerel is more expensive! The son-in-law and prospective son-in-law of Quanqin Island will be slaughtered.

The Spanish mackerel spoken by the people of Qindao, to be precise, is the mackerel, which is a close relative of the mackerel, and both are fish of the same family, but the status of the mackerel is a world apart.

The so-called local mackerel in Qindao is a kind of mackerel, called blue-spot mackerel.

As for the other types of mackerel, such as Kang’s mackerel, Chinese mackerel, and spot mackerel, they are the so-called foreign mackerel by the people of Qindao, but no matter which kind of mackerel, In Qindao, there is definitely a market.

As for the so-called golden mackerel? Please, they are yellow-tailed yellowtail, OK? It's not a fish at all!

How could Xiao Peng miss such a good Spanish mackerel fishing season?

Xiao Peng thought for a while, and picked up the cordless wire: "Wang Long, you are going to seine the net. This time we will use the seine net to fish without trawling. In addition, let Mengzi take the iron poles and take a look. Can you come and have a few Spanish mackerel kings!"

Xiao Peng arranged this because Spanish mackerel is a warm-water pelagic fish and often migrates in groups in groups. Trawl nets are better for bottom fish, while purse seines are the opposite.

The so-called King of Spanish Mackerel refers to the big guy in Spanish Mackerel. Although the general spanish fish is within one meter in length, there are exceptions.

Many spaniels that have grown for many years are more than two meters long. For example, the specimen of "King of Mackerel" in the Dalian Natural History Museum has a length of more than 2.6 meters, or more than 260 kilograms. The price of such King Mackerel is very high. It's okay to sell one hundred thousand Chinese coins for a body over two meters. Catch such a fish, it means a small fortune. Who makes Qindao people like Spanish mackerel?

In Qindao, many kinds of fish have the word mackerel in their names. Mackerel is called mackerel, mackerel is mackerel, bonito is called oil mackerel, and even sharks. Laoqin Island fishermen call them mackerel.

The reason for this is related to a folklore.

According to legend, there is an orphan named Xiao Wu whose parents have died. He was adopted by an old man who later betrothed his daughter to him. Until one spring, the old man suddenly fell ill and wanted to eat fresh mackerel when he was dying.

At that time, the weather was bad, but Xiao Wu risked his life to go fishing.

After knowing this, the old man said while he was still alive: "Good boy, it's really hard for Xiao Wu, nothing more, nothing more..." But before he finished speaking, the old man suffocated, Xiao Wu fished back the fresh mackerel. Fish, but can only cook fresh mackerel for the old man's spirit.

From that day on, Xiaowu and his wife would offer to the old man’s grave every year the big fish caught in the early spring, and named this big fish after the old man’s dying “nothing but nothing”.

Then came the name of mackerel mackerel oil mackerel for other fish, and it continues to this day.

After making preparations, everyone boarded the ship and drove the Vladimir to the junction of the Yellow Sea and the Pacific, where it was called ‘in stock’.

"Xiao Peng, it's been more than a day. Where are we going?" Yang Meng drove the Vladimir and asked Xiao Peng with a puzzled expression: "At least three schools of Spanish mackerel fish were seen along the way. What do you mean by not letting you get off the Internet?"

Xiao Peng made a gesture of contempt to Yang Meng: "That's still a school of Spanish mackerel? The long one is fifty centimeters long, and there are so many twenty or thirty centimeters. These are all the young fish of the year. Not enough to catch them? It's stuffed between teeth." Xiao Peng pointed to the nautical chart: "Let's go here!"

Yang Meng looked at the chart: "Are you ready to fight? Are we going there?"

Xiao Peng pointed to the location near Jeju Island, the country of plastic surgery, between Hyuga Reef and Su Yan Reef. Yang Meng's worry is not unreasonable.

We can often see news reports that the coastal police boats of the plastic surgery country attacked our fishing boats. The source of all this is attributed to the issue of the division of maritime territories between China and the plastic surgery country.

The cosmetic country insists on dividing the adjacent sea area between the two countries with the intermediate method, while China Xia insists on the exclusive economic zone of 200 nautical miles along the coast. As a result, there is a sea area that both countries claim to belong to. Therefore, the Chinese fishermen who work here often encounter the sea police of the cosmetic country who are chased, intercepted and even attacked by armed forces. There have even been cases where the coastal police of the cosmetic country shot and killed Chinese fishermen.

(There are two ways to divide the national sea areas, one is divided according to the extension of the submarine continental shelf, the other is divided according to the middle position of the ocean between the two countries. The Japanese country proposed to China that the division of the two countries' sea areas should be divided according to the continental shelf, China said It must be divided according to the middle; the plastic surgery country said, let’s divide it according to the middle? Huaxia said again, no, no, we divide it according to the continental shelf. As for the Nansha Islands, the nearby countries said it, then you say it, no matter it is The continental shelf is divided according to the average line. As a result, Huaxia said again, no, no, we are here to divide according to the "since ancient times"...)

And Hyuga Reef and Suyan Reef are not islands, but submarine reefs. Both China and the country of plastic surgery recognize that these two reefs do not have territorial status. But because these two reefs are located in the disputed sea area between the two countries, the strategic significance is also significant.

Because these two reefs are closer to the country of plastic surgery than the country of China, so the stick does not let go. According to the principle that China has put forward, even if it is farther away, it is still China, so China does not let go.

However, China has underestimated the shamelessness of the plastic surgery country: the southwestern tip of the plastic surgery country is on Xiaoheishan Island, and the Hyuga Reef is located 26 nautical miles west of Xiaoheishan Island. According to international law, Xiaoheishan Island extends 12 nautical miles to the territorial sea. Hyuga can't hit the reef. Even the area adjacent to you is counted, which is 24 nautical miles at best. So Hyuga Jiao should be the territory of China.

However, the plastic surgery people can ignore these and directly establish an artificial base on Hyuga Reef. It is similar to a lighthouse with a height of 26 meters and an area of ​​286 square meters. There are usually four people in this base. There are scientific instruments and marine researchers. It is well-known as the "Coju Reef Marine Science Base". People change every time. Garrison, forcibly occupied here.

So is Su Yan Jiao. Even more hateful.

Su Yan Jiao is not even visible on the sea surface, and is still under the sea surface at low tide. There is still 4.6 meters from sea level at low tide. Since ancient times, it has been a fishing ground for Chinese fishermen. However, in 1987, the plastic surgery country illegally set up navigation buoys on Su Yan Jiao, and illegally set up a large ocean platform on it, with helipads, satellite radars, lighthouses, and docks. Even put it into the air recognition zone of the plastic surgery country! Many coastal police boats that oppress Huaxia fishermen berth here for supplies.

At that time, Huaxia focused on economic development, ignoring maritime territories. Now that it has attracted attention, it is always passive, especially after the plastic surgery Jeju Naval Base was completed, it shortened the distance between the plastic surgery country’s warships and Su Yanjiao to 94 nautical miles. It takes eight hours to reach the nearby sea. This is going to fight Huaxia to the end.

Xiao Peng chose to go to that sea area to carry out fishing operations, making it clear that he was looking for trouble.

"Are you afraid?" Xiao Peng asked Yang Meng.

"Fart! I can't kill them, what kind of ship are we? Vladimir! It's ok to go to the Antarctic and Arctic to break the ice, can I still be afraid of the sea police ship of the plastic surgery country? Dare to provoke me and I hit them!" Yang Meng said At this time, he was full of confidence. After all, the Vladimir was a military product. That sturdiness is not comparable to ordinary ships.

Xiao Peng smiled: "Are you planning to learn Deng Shichang?" Deng Shichang, a navy general in the late Qing Dynasty and a national hero. During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, he was sacrificed in the battle with the navy of the island nation.

Yang Meng snorted: "Deng Shichang was driving the Zhiyuan to hit the Yoshino. His courage is commendable, but he sank before hitting the Yoshino. Don't crow's mouth. We are in the same boat now!"

Xiao Peng shrugged: "What did you hit them for?"

Yang Meng's face was flat: "These grandsons just owe it to you. In the past few years, the number of Chinese fishing boats seized by the coastal police of the plastic surgery country has reached thousands, and we have also collected huge fines from our fishermen. Ma has relaxed the restrictions on the use of machine gun grenade launchers and other weapons against Chinese fishing boats! Now I heard that the 40mm rapid-fire gun will start to be used. Is this going to go to war?"

Xiao Peng smiled slightly: "Let's talk about it when the time comes. Speed ​​up the voyage. It's late to let the plastic surgery sticks catch the big Spanish mackerel!"

Yang Meng heard, "They dare, and they won't give them Bayu Feather!" After speaking, he really speeded up the voyage.

Well, this is in line with his character, lest there be no chaos in the world!
