As the three short and one long electric bell rang, Tang Chunsheng, the captain of the patrol boat of the Chongqing Armed Police Corps Boat Detachment and a first-class sergeant, quickly checked the equipment and confirmed the hydrological and meteorological conditions. Immediately after, he sailed out of port and joined the formation, starting a new day of river patrols. During the Spring Festival holiday, the officers and soldiers of the boat detachment are particularly busy, setting out early and returning late to guard the safety of the "Golden Waterway" shipping. "Before and after the Spring Festival, there is often fog on the Chongqing section of the Yangtze River, coupled with complex water flow conditions and an increase in the number of ships coming and going, making it easy for safety accidents to occur during this period." The leader of the detachment told reporters that throughout the Spring Festival, they will send three teams to carry out river patrol tasks in three directions to ensure timely disposal in case of any situation. The waves surged on the river, and Tang Chunsheng piloted a patrol boat slowly forward. From the Dafosi Yangtze River Bridge to the Egongyan Yangtze River Bridge, this more than 20 kilometer long route, he has sailed nearly a thousand times since enlisting. "This water area is densely covered with hidden reefs and complex water conditions, so one must not be careless." In between words, the ship's hull jolted due to the impact of the undercurrent, and Tang Chunsheng quickly steered and straightened the hull. Similar situations have become commonplace for Tang Chunsheng. Since serving as the captain, he has spent the Spring Festival on this river every year. Every time his comrades advised him to go home to accompany his family on New Year's Eve, he always said, "I am familiar with the situation, I want to stay." From the dawn to the night, on the day of family reunion, the task officers and soldiers of the boat detachment spent the whole day walking on the river, silently guarding the safety of the area. As soon as the patrol boat docked, the mechanical and electrical chief Jiang Haifan immediately entered the mechanical and electrical compartment. I saw him holding a probe and carefully inspecting the components inside the cabin. The hot air emitted by the generator blended with the cold air, and in no time, his hair was covered with water droplets. In recent years, Jiang Haifan has not only proficiently mastered the skills of boat maintenance and repair, but also obtained various qualifications for driving boats. He wiped the water droplets from his head and said to the reporter, "Boat soldiers have strong professionalism. Mastering one more skill will give them more confidence in dealing with emergencies." As the lights lit up, the patrol formation set off again. Amidst the ripples of the river, the officers and soldiers were full of fighting spirit: "We will definitely practice our skills and bravely shoulder our mission to ensure the safety and smoothness of the 'Golden Waterway'!"
