As a humiliation in China's diplomatic history, the Yinhe incident can be described as a thorn in the hearts of the Chinese people.

At that time, United States United States opened a warehouse for inspection under the witness of China and Sha, and Sha Zukang, a "hawkish diplomat" on the mainland, stared at the soldiers on the ship, and turned off all the cooling equipment in a hurry!

At this time, the angry United States inspectors can be regarded as having learned the power of Chinese diplomats. How did the U.S. side deal with the Milky Way? How did this humiliating incident end?

Sudden question

In 1993, when the Chinese Galaxy sailed to the Persian Gulf, the United States Coast Guard blocked our merchant ships there. In their mouths, China's Yinhe has raw materials for making chemical weapons! This trip to Iran is the delivery of such important items!

Hearing this, the captain of the Galaxy gasped. This kind of joke is unavoidable, and its own cargo ship is full of all kinds of daily necessities sent at the request of customers, so how can there be chemical raw materials as mentioned by the US side?

However, the United States was very tough at that time, and ignored the Chinese captain's remarks. After all, the comprehensive strength of the mainland in those years needed to be strengthened, which led to the fact that the United States did not take us seriously at all!

Back then, we fought the basis of reason, reasoned and laid out the facts. But when the national strength was not yet strong, the United States warships forced the Galaxy to stop, not giving us the slightest chance to breathe!

From the departure in early July to the forced halt in early August, one of our good voyages was slandered by the United States as selling "dangerous raw materials!" "Under the front and rear attacks of the US fleet and the coast guard, the Galaxy was finally forced to stop on the high seas.

At this time, the US troops, who had to move an inch, not only used warships to force our merchant ships to stop, but also dispatched a number of warplanes to fly back and forth over the Yinhe in an attempt to create a terrifying atmosphere to make the crew afraid. What would have been a good voyage has evolved out of control, like a conflict is about to occur!

Some people want to say that China can completely ignore it. Anyway, it's all in the Persian Gulf, isn't it okay to unload the goods directly to Iran and then make plans? But the fact is not so simple, the intercepted US warship was "received from the United States Intelligence Agency."

In this regard, the US military on the scene will not disobey their superiors, so in the face of mild Chinese ships, the United States does not care whether you have chemical raw materials or not, and you will be embarrassed if you want to.

An indescribable pouch

As we all know, United States has always been like this. Not only for China, but also for slightly weaker countries, the United States will start pinching. When United States wanted to fight Iraq, it also asked Secretary of State Powell to pinch a small test-tube bottle and make an impassioned meal at the UN General Assembly.

He said that the test tube in his hand was some kind of "biological and chemical mass murder weapon" found by the local US military, and the US side was deeply worried and indignant about this. So there is condemnation of this and that. But everyone understands that this is just a cover from the United States.

Back on the Galaxy, there was a very sad reason why we didn't leave at that time. Because the satellites of all countries at that time used United States GPS systems to receive signals, it can be said that once the signal is left, it is undoubtedly blindfolded to cross the road - looking for death!

The reality at the time forced people to lower their heads and recognize the reality. For nearly a month of negotiations between China and United States, the Galaxy floated alone in the open sea.

Temperatures can reach 40-50°C, not to mention the airtight cabins, and even the scorching heat on the deck is unbearable. At that time, the material on the Galaxy was running out, and even the water resources to save life were almost empty. But under such circumstances, the US side still insisted on detaining the ship for inspection!

In fact, during this period, the U.S. military also called the crew of the Yinhe to disembark from the ship for inspection, so that they could send them some food and water. But the Chinese resolutely refused to eat what they came from, stuck to merchant ships, and only waited for instructions from their homeland.

After two more negotiations, China finally won the right to allow the crew to enter the port of Dammam to replenish their living resources. At this time, everyone's hearts were a little more stable. After all, no matter how much there is a conflict, the US side will not dare to make fun of the people. Otherwise, it would have been difficult, and if it really turned into an international incident, it would be difficult for this group of US troops to explain.

But in the face of United States' hegemonism, when watching their merchant ships being blocked, everyone held their stomachs. Even Sha Zukang, who rushed to deal with the matter, sighed again and again afterwards: "Wow! Timid! ”

Sha Zukang's revenge

In the face of United States's difficulties, Sha Zukang was distressed when he saw his compatriots with yellow faces and thin muscles. In the face of the menacing US military, I can't wait to go up and scold. However, it means that the state of etiquette still has to suppress its anger, and it has already suffered unfair treatment, and it is the problem that should be solved now.

At this time, China and the United States discussed, and under the witness of a third Saudi party, the US soldiers all boarded the Galaxy one by one. At this time, Sha Zukang, who was angry, watched them have an idea, and called the captain of the Galaxy to explain truthfully.

After waiting for a while, I saw that the US soldiers wearing thick chemical protective suits were sweating profusely, and they couldn't stand it anymore and ran out of the cabin. At this time, the commander of the US military led by him ran out and roared at Sha Zukang, complaining that the exhaust fans and electric fans in the cabin were all broken.

At this time, Sha Zukang "apologized" and explained to the other party with a smile that our Galaxy itself is not very easy to use, plus nearly a month of tossing. It's also a helpless thing to be damaged.

At this time, the U.S. military led by the U.S. military said, "OH, MY GOD! With a bitter face, he entered the cabin again with a team of U.S. military inspectors to continue the inspection. At this moment, Sha Zukang smiled secretly: Tell you to turn off the GPS, and we will also turn off the exhaust fan! If you like to check so much, then check enough!

After a while, Sha Zukang and the Chinese crew, who had replenished their strength, leisurely watched the busy American troops on the deck. At this time, the American soldiers who stumbled out of the cabin were all out of breath and could not breathe. As soon as they landed on the deck, they couldn't wait to sit down on the ground, as if they were prostrating.

It's no wonder that the cabin in which the cargo is stored is airtight. Then turn off the exhaust system, and the whole cabin is like a steamer. These U.S. troops are wearing thick chemical protective suits, which is no wonder if they don't need human lives. The U.S. military, who had experienced such torture, couldn't bear it, and several inspectors suffered heat stroke on the spot, and they were dizzy and almost didn't get up from the ground.

After the spot checks, the U.S. military did not find what they were expecting. As a result, just when everyone thought that the matter was over, the US side responded to their request and inspected all the warehouses again!

At this time, Sha Zukang couldn't help it, and directly accused the United States of having nothing to do. We were able to swallow our anger and cooperate with the unreasonable demands of the US side, but as a result, they still had to inch in, which was really too much!

In this regard, Sha Zukang immediately said that the United States was unreasonable. The merchant ships that do not have any problems themselves are so tossed, is there any reason for this? It is okay to inspect all the goods, but if there are no problems, the United States will compensate for all the economic and moral losses in China! And it must be carried out in the presence of the Saudi side, otherwise there is no need to talk!

The American representative nodded in agreement, but looked at the stuffy cabin and was troubled for a while. The feeling of heat stroke was not pleasant, but I had to do it at the request of my superiors. So they reluctantly descended from the deadly cabin again.

After many searches by the US side to no avail, this is good to go back with the group of prostration inspectors. At this time, Sha Zukang looked at the departing figure of the US side, and then looked back at the Chinese crew on the deck, and had mixed feelings for a while.

After the investigation was completed, United States the US side bowed its head and admitted its mistake in forcing the Yinhe to stop the ship for nearly a month, and compensated the Chinese side more than $10 million.

To be honest, although the US side made everyone angry with its apology and compensation. However, at that time, the humiliation in the hearts of the Chinese people was always haunted in their hearts, and the weakness of their own strength allowed the United States to exploit the loopholes. Therefore, when our generation should be self-reliant, when our own strength is enough to compete with the world, can we raise our heads and defy all threats from the outside, and can we hold our heads high and become a country that can stand on its feet in the world!
