The blockade line was easily breached—it really couldn't even be called a blockade line, just eight ships strung out on the water intercepting briefly. If the ships' firepower had still been operational, they would've posed a significant threat to any small boats trying to pass between them. But once their firepower was knocked out, it was easy to get through.
Gao Yang's boat passed through between two timber carrying ships spaced over two hundred meters apart. At this moment, the happiest person was the captain. Initially, he was scared, but within a few minutes, he had ten thousand US dollars securely in his pocket—which naturally made him very happy.
Remaining alert and watching the timber ships receding into the distance and not having to worry about them catching up, Gao Yang put away his rifle, blew a whistle, and said, "Job done."
