Chapter 1768 Fire scene

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The traffic policeman seemed to want to make amends, he hurriedly climbed into his police car, sounded the siren and opened the way for Xu Yishan.

    Someone escorted him, and there were no more twists and turns along the way.  When Xu Yishan's car rushed to the scene of the accident, he was shocked by the scene in front of him and gasped.

    Yuezhou Daily Chemical is a huge enterprise, distributed in all directions of Yuezhou.  It is no exaggeration to call Yuezhou a daily chemical city.  In fact, Yuezhou people regard themselves as Japanese people outside.  After all, at least half of the households in the city are related to daily chemical companies.

    The accident happened in the north of Yuezhou City, which is the warehouse of Yuezhou daily chemical products.  The warehouse is located in the north of the city because there is a mountain in the north of the city.  This is the only mountain in Yuezhou City.  The mountain was completely hollowed out, and countless petroleum products were stored inside.

    The location of the fire is less than 500 meters away from the mountain warehouse.  The fire started after a leak from a buried oil storage tank.  The key is that the underground pipelines are all connected, and the raging fire is likely to burn along the pipelines to the mountain warehouse.

    There was a cordon around the perimeter, Xu Yishan felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face when he got out of the car.

    The wind is on fire, at least seven or eight meters high, and it is buzzing.  There was a pungent smell in the air, smoke and dust fell all over the sky, and people's hair and clothes were covered with a layer of black dust in an instant.

    More than a dozen fire engines lined up, and the water jets from the fire hydrants looked like a dozen giant dragons.  However, in the face of the fire that soared into the sky, it seemed like a mud cow had entered the sea, and it didn't work at all.

    ?Fire engines from all over the country are still coming in, but due to local restrictions, they cannot be deployed.

    Fu Qing's face was livid, and when he saw Xu Yishan coming, he hurriedly reported: "Commander, the situation is not very good. Now the pipelines are all cut off, but there is no guarantee that flammable and explosive products will be safe under high temperature."

    ?Professor Liu, secretary of the Yuezhou Municipal Party Committee, was pale, with tears in his eyes. He held Xu Yishan's hand tightly with one hand, and said sadly: "It's over, it's over. Yishan, it's over!"

    Xu Yishan comforted him and said: "Secretary Liu, don't be in a hurry. The most urgent thing is to do everything possible to put out the fire."

    Professor Liu shook his head blankly and said, "It's impossible. It has been burning for six hours, and the iron has melted. Now a hundred fire trucks are working again, but the fire has not been controlled."

    After understanding, Xu Yishan learned that twenty oil storage tanks with a capacity of 10,000 tons were buried underground at the fire site, and each oil storage tank was an extremely powerful bomb.  Once it explodes, it will cause a chain explosion. If the twenty oil storage tanks explode, Yuezhou City will be razed to the ground.

    ? If the explosion caused the oil storage in the mountain warehouse to leak, the second explosion would really blow up half of the central province to the ground.

    ?Experts from all walks of life are also coming in a steady stream. Facing the skyrocketing fire, everyone is very worried.

    Fu Qing said bluntly: "Commander-in-chief, judging from my experience, the possibility of successfully extinguishing the fire with fire truck sprinklers alone is zero. I suggest that the masses should be evacuated immediately to prevent accidents."

    The opinions of experts have also come out.  Experts agreed that all personnel were evacuated from the scene.  Because they have judged that due to the continuous burning of the fire for more than six hours, all the underground oil storage tanks are at the critical point of explosion.

    Xu Yishan humbly asked: "Is there really no other way?"

    The experts shook their heads and said: "Commander-in-Chief, this is the most critical moment. The evacuation of personnel can also prevent casualties. If you stick to your position, you can only make indifferent sacrifices, which are not worth it."

    After urgent discussions, the experts came up with a rescue plan.

    That is, all rescuers evacuate immediately.  After the fire has burned all the combustible objects, it will naturally go out.  Forcibly putting out the fire now is basically equivalent to doing useless work, and it will also cause the possibility of casualties.

    The underground oil storage tank is buried more than 20 meters deep underground. When it was originally designed, it took into account the emergency rescue measures that must be adopted in the event of a fire.

    Professor Liu also suggested to evacuate the personnel first. He said with a wry smile: "If things are burned, we can still create. If people are gone, no one can afford the consequences."

    Fu Qing echoed Professor Liu's opinion and demanded that all rescuers be evacuated from the scene to a safe place.  At the same time, the Yuezhou Municipal Government urgently evacuated the surrounding people.

    Xu Yishan neither agreed nor opposed.  He remembered that when Fu Qing called him, he said that more than a hundred people were still trapped.  Then he asked, "Commander Fu, where are the trapped people?"

    Professor Liu quickly explained: "They are in the mountain warehouse. After the fire broke out, the workers closed the warehouse door to prevent the fire from spreading."

    "Everyone is in the warehouse?"

    Professor Liu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly.

      "Can they evacuate?" Xu Yishan asked.

    Fu Qing took over and said: "Evacuation is no longer realistic. Their escape route has been closed. However, they are in the warehouse. As long as they don't explode, their safety is guaranteed."

    "The question is, who can guarantee that there will be no explosion?" Xu Yishan's brows were deeply furrowed, with more than a hundred lives in his hands, at this moment, he felt a heavy responsibility.  Nothing had ever made him feel so at a loss.

    He couldn't leave the more than 100 people in the warehouse alone!

    However, if you don't evacuate now, if the underground oil storage tank explodes, not to mention the more than 100 people in the warehouse, the rescuers in front of you, including yourself, will all be wiped out in an instant.

    After making suggestions, the experts left the scene one after another.

    Fire trucks drove past one after another, and instead of extinguishing the fire, the sprayed water converged into a river on the ground.

    The heat wave hits the face, people seem to be roasting on the fire.

    Fu Qing whispered: "Commander, please evacuate immediately."

    Xu Yishan glanced at him, "Old Fu, do you still know that I am the commander-in-chief? Has any commander-in-chief left the command post?"

    Fu Qing smiled wryly and said, "It's very dangerous here now."

    Xu Yishan didn't know that he was stepping on twenty huge bombs.

    To withdraw means to give up.  The worst result of giving up is that the oil storage tank explodes violently under continuous intense high temperature.  If you don't evacuate, the danger is at hand.  Because no one can guarantee whether or when the oil storage tank will explode.

    "Old Fu, you are an expert. Tell me, is there anything we can do now?" Xu Yishan felt that his lips were chapped, and he licked his lips involuntarily.

    "Unless" paid off, he hesitated to speak.

    "Unless what?" Xu Yishan couldn't wait to ask.

    "Ask for support from the troops." Fu Qing said with a wry smile: "Even if we use the troops now, we may have missed the opportunity when we get the approval."

    The meaning of paying off is that if the army sends out helicopters at this time and uses dry ice to extinguish the fire in mid-air, it may be possible to extinguish the fire.  Even if it can't be completely extinguished, at least it can delay the spread of the fire and win more opportunities for underground fire fighting activities.

    His worries are not unreasonable, mobilizing troops is not that simple.

    "This may be the only way." Fu Qing said: "Commander, I suggest that we evacuate first, and then think of a way."
