And that's not counting – even earlier, on February 6, 1973, Xiang Weirong happened to be on a mission in Ganzi-Zhou, and as a result, a 7.6-magnitude earthquake struck Yade, Luhuo County (some recorded as 7.9 magnitude).

The earthquake caused serious damage, killing 2,175 people, and 88 households were wiped out!

15,700 houses collapsed, almost 100% of the houses collapsed in the extreme earthquake area, from the furnace to the place, all the hidden houses were flattened, and there was not a single left!

Of the 5,600 houses in Luhuo County, 4,600 collapsed, 880 were seriously damaged, and 90 cracks appeared...... Seventeen places on the Sichuan-Tibet Highway were severely damaged......

In Xiang Weirong's words: You can't find a wall as high as a waist!

One of his comrades died in the fire: because the weather was so cold, the brother was stupid enough to go to sleep in the house, and it was gone.

Why doesn't Zhang Nan like to live in high-rise buildings?

I have been influenced by my brother-in-law for two lifetimes: because Xiang Weirong suffered two major earthquakes in Xichuan, as a result, whether in the army or after returning to the place, as long as there are conditions to live in a guest house on a business trip, the highest is only on the third floor.

For Xiang Weirong, the third floor is not much different from being on flat ground, and he can quickly evacuate to a safe area in case of fire.

Zhang Nan has heard a lot and is also a habit, of course, in places where there will be no major earthquakes, Zhang Nan will live in the Jinjiang Hotel, because Shanghai and Jiangnan generation because of geological tectonic reasons, there will be no major earthquakes at all.

After ten seconds or so, everyone got used to the most destructive horizontal shaking, the hotel building kept making a "crackling" sound, the mess was falling down, and the house was shaking!

But no one will have the time to look at the house, and they won't be able to hurt themselves if it collapses anyway - while habitually protecting the safety of the boss, everyone is paying attention to the Golden Gate Bridge in the bay!

It's shaking violently, and the scene is terrifying!

Almost all of them have one thought in their heads: Will it collapse?

Zhang Nan didn't know how long it had been, the earth had finally returned to calm, and although the Golden Gate Bridge a few kilometers away was still shaking, it could be seen that this huge steel cable suspension bridge should have withstood the test of the earthquake, and the swing amplitude was getting smaller.

I really saw the power of a major earthquake, and I remember that the magnitude of this earthquake was less than 7, so what will happen to the 8-magnitude earthquake?

There wasn't much time to think about it, because the brother-in-law spoke: "The guys from the branch immediately contacted the company and asked how the damage in the whole city was. Alyosha, you and Brother Mark will not leave Anan, right in the garden!

Xingquan, you take two people and you go outside to have a look, and the others go back to the room and take out all the disaster relief equipment that can be used.

5 minutes, 5 minutes at most must come out!"

Zhang Nan didn't ask the question of whether the house would collapse now - seeing that the hotel building is still relatively solid, although the messy ancillary structures have collapsed a lot, and the wall skin has cracks, it will obviously not fall.

Xiang Weirong has rich experience in earthquake resistance, and the seismic wave just now is a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave, and it can be distinguished, which means that there should be no aftershocks in a short period of time, and you can go to pick up things.

No one asked the boss why he called everyone to gather a few minutes ago, even if he could have a premonition that there was an earthquake.

The house didn't collapse, but if someone was inside, it was still very possible for someone to be smashed on the head and bleed if they were not careful!

The mobile phone has run out of signal, presumably because the nearby base station has been damaged. But this is not difficult for yourself, with a satellite phone.

I first called Nicole in New York, explaining that she was safe and sound here, and as for the others, she didn't need to notify herself, and Nicole would naturally notify her.

And then...

The guys at the branch had already finished the phone call and reported that the city was in a mess, the situation was unknown, and most of the cell phones and landlines were useless, except for satellite phones.

The staff on duty at the branch asked for instructions: whether it is necessary to send a helicopter to pick up the boss.

There was a helicopter, and there was originally one here in San Francisco, because Zhang Nan was going to stay in California for three days, and the "United Forces" transferred another one from Los Angeles in advance.

Nicole informed Thomas Jackson very seriously: No matter where Zhang Nan goes, all parties must be fully prepared!

Zhang Nan didn't agree.

"No, let the company contact the City Hall Police Department Fire Brigade Rescue Team or something, our company's two Bell 205s in San Francisco can volunteer to participate in the rescue, tell them that the company has first-class first responders and equipment. ”

The branch guy of the report "snapped" to Zhang Nan with an American-style military salute!

"Yes, sir!"

It's not called the boss, but sir, this is a US military veteran's sincere respect for the boss!

Who is Mr. Allen?

The super-rich who own a financial empire, a jewelry mining group and a military contractor group, and when other people face such a natural disaster, the first thing that comes to mind is to evacuate, and the boss actually thinks of disaster relief first.

In fact, Xiang Weirong's words just now have already set the tone - Chinese soldiers, even if they are already retired, will stand up without hesitation in the face of such a natural disaster!

Whether it is at home or abroad, this is the nature of a person with a sense of justice.

At the critical moment, listening to your brother-in-law is generally not wrong.

Randy, Paul and other U.S. military veterans feel the same way: if the boss wants to leave, then they will definitely do their duty. And the boss ordered to stay, and the guys were not only loyal to the boss, but also had a trace of reverence!

The branch staff immediately used a satellite phone to inform the company, and several American guys who had taken out the items were a little resolute: this is the rhythm of participating in the earthquake relief!

Xiang Weirong said that the disaster relief equipment was not taken for the rest of the mess, but a large backpack in green camouflage, a few small waist packs, and a small amount of bottled drinking water.

The Red Cross logo is conspicuously displayed on the rucksack and waist pack, and these are the Rucksacks and Individual First Aid Kits of the U.S. Army Medic on Active Duty.

Not only that, but there were also some first-aid kits in the five large SUVs in the parking lot, and several jacks were also taken out.

I could already hear people crying for help outside the hotel, and it was estimated that many people were injured — the hotel is next to "End of Land Park" to the west, and to the south and east are the upscale residential neighborhoods of San Francisco.

Unlike the high-end residential areas on Long Island, the best ones here are only high-end villas, no estates, because the land is tight, so the population density is not small, which should hurt a lot.

Kwan Xingquan is back.

"There are two heads smashed in the hotel, and they find their own first aid kit in the bag, and it's fine. There are many wounded people in the neighborhood, there seems to be a collapsed house 200 meters to the south, and there is a veterans' hospital on the south side of the park 2 kilometers to the west, which should be the only hospital of size in the neighborhood.

But the road to that side seems to be blocked. ”

Everyone here has received basic first-aid training for war wounds, Jin Wenbo has already carried a military doctor backpack, he can do some emergency trauma surgery, and Lin Ming stands next to him and can be an assistant.

The others also carried a first aid kit or two each, and the "United Forces" logo was attached to their left sleeve and chest, waiting for orders.

Xiang Weirong took the shovel that Qiu Bo took from the tool room by the garden, glanced at everyone, and said, "Let's go!"

Set yourself a small goal first: such as collecting pen fun pavilion:. Mobile version URL: m.
