Chapter 766: It's Terrible!

readx;

Just when Ye Kai flew over Kangcheng Town by helicopter, the people on the ground were also busy. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.infoβ•”β•—

Ten hours ago, it was a thriving market, with a farmer's market, a school, lots of residential homes, and a pig farm.

Then a sudden dam failure accident wiped out a lot of things on the ground.

Xinxing Company is a large private enterprise in Xuling County, Dongshan City, built in Kangcheng Town, mainly engaged in iron ore mining, and some other additional products, with a profit of about 6 million a year and a profit of more than 3 million.

At 8 o'clock in the morning of April 30, Zhang Heshui, an employee of Xinxing Company, had just come to the first floor of the office building, and had just opened the office door, and before he could sit down at his desk, he heard a bang, and the whole house shook, and muddy water splashed on him, all of which happened in a few seconds.

Before he could figure out what was going on, the whole person was thrown out and unconscious.

In fact, the entire office building was thrown out.

The surging mud rolled the building and the people, walked nearly 100 meters, and was thrown behind the bazaar. β•”β•—

Later, he learned that it was the tailings dam of Xinxing's iron ore mine that burst and caused the mudslide.

When Zhang Heshui woke up, he found two colleagues from the company lying on the side.

He wanted to cry for help, but he felt that his stomach and trachea were full of mud and sand, and the pain was like tearing, and he couldn't speak.

Qi Fang is also an employee of a start-up company, and at the time of the incident, the young man happened to be in a dormitory building far away from the office building, and was not affected much.

The young man's reaction was quick, and when he saw a black, gas-like object coming at him, his first reaction was to fall to the ground.

By the time he reacted, the dormitory building had been thrown out of its foundation, as easily or even easily as pulling a carrot.

The rumbling sound covered everything, and when everything calmed down, Qi Fang began to return to the company to save people.

Seeing no tools at hand, Qi Fang found only a wooden stick, through which he tried to find out if there was life under the mud.

With a height of more than 1.8 meters, it became more and more difficult for him to walk, and the mud had already reached the base of his thighs, and he couldn't move the mud under his feet with a stick. β•”β•—

Qi Fang had no choice but to give up the search and rescue, and in desperation, he accidentally found his colleague Zhang Heshui.

The office building of the start-up company was completely buried under the mud, and only a few of the 100 or so employees who went to work that day survived, while many of the small bungalows that lived in the town were also soaked in muddy water, and the trees on both sides of the road were also washed away.

That's when everyone knew what was going on.

The debris flow caused by the dam failure of the tailings pond is farther than the ordinary debris flow, the iron powder in the iron ore tailings pond is only slightly coarser than the flour, and the fluidity is very good.

Chen Rong and Li Jifang opened a haberdashery store in Kangcheng Town, about 40 to 50 meters away from the bazaar, and they had just opened their eyes when the incident occurred.

The noisy and terrifying screams made the couple sober up in an instant.

Chen Rong looked out the window and found that many people were desperately fleeing, and some people shouted, "Go and save people from something big!" ”

In an instant, Chen Rong's eyes became bright, and as far as the eye could see, it was all mud. β•”β•—

He and his wife couldn't believe their eyes, the most prosperous place in this village had completely disappeared at this moment!

As a veteran, Chen Rong has been on the battlefield, fought battles, seen blood and fire, and carried the dead, but it still took him a few minutes to calm himself down.

At this time, many people had already joined the rescue team, and there were many people who were covered in mud and dragged out of the mud, including students, elderly people, and even pregnant women, and their friends on the other side of the street.

In addition, there are many migrant workers from other places who are also in a hurry to save people like him.

The residents of the mining area of the new company are mainly foreigners, and most of the people who do business in the bazaar are people from the nearby town of Kangcheng, as well as many miners from other places.

Chen Rong walked forty or fifty meters forward, and found that it was not easy to walk, and every step he took, his feet would sink deep into the mud.

Because he didn't know the depth, he walked very carefully, trying to step on the footprints that had already walked in front of him to save people, and followed forward. β•”β•—

When he walked to the market, Chen Rong first saw a man lying down, but he had no breath, one leg was gone, and his head was twisted from the front to the back, obviously with a broken cervical vertebrae.

Next to the dead man, Chen Rong found an unconscious woman, and he pulled out the sheets soaked in the mud, tied her up, and dragged her to the side.

Further on, the quagmire deepened, and more people who had lost signs of life began to cross the roadside.

As the mudslide passed, the force of the impact overturned them, and then the mud poured through their noses, mouths, and ears, making them unable to breathe, and eventually bursting their lungs and taking their lives.

At this time, it was less than a quarter of an hour before the incident.

The mud-washed dam in the distance is much higher than the bazaar, about 100 meters.

Half an hour later, the fire and rescue team and the people from the county police station rushed to the scene of the incident first, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but feel a chill, because they were not familiar with the local terrain, and there was mud everywhere, so they couldn't see the original situation at all, so the villagers led the way to save people. β•”β•—

The office building of the emerging company that bore the brunt was washed out hundreds of meters away at this time, although the main body was still intact, but the hundreds of employees working here, the rescue team only saw less than ten people who successfully escaped.

From here, looking in the direction of the village, it is also a mudflat, with no signs of life.

"Doomsday!" A deputy captain of the fire and rescue team who led the team couldn't help but gasp and muttered to himself.

"Lao Liu, stop talking nonsense, save people!" An old policeman with red eyes almost shouted.

The eldest brother of the old policeman lives in this town, and at this time he can't see the house of the eldest brother he is familiar with, it has been completely bulldozed by the mudslide, and he can recognize the location in front of him, but there is no sign on it, just a pile of mud.

He couldn't even see how deep the mud was and how much was buried underneath!

From the dam breach to two kilometers away, the mud is deep enough to submerge the feet and necks, let alone the front.

It's just that the rescue team is not very useful, it is all mud! Mud mixed with slag powder!

These things are different from the houses that collapsed after an earthquake, at least they can be moved away with tools and set aside.

But what do you do with the mud? You dig it up, and immediately new mud fills in the gap.

The reality is that the situation is relatively cruel, and there is no way to deal with the situation in front of us.

All they could do was follow the villagers by, try to find the survivors in the mud, drag them out, and take them to the hospital, and nothing else.

As for those who were buried inside the collapsed houses and covered in mud, there was nothing anyone could do about it.

The leaders of Xuling County, within two hours of the incident, also rushed one after another, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they were also half chilled.

The county magistrate Sun Shiwen's face was pale, and he couldn't wait to drag the boss of the emerging company out and strangle him to death at this time.

There have long been relevant departments to supervise, asking them to pay attention to the safety of the tailings pond and solve the danger hanging over the head of Kangcheng Town, they just dragged it out, and now such a tragic accident finally happened.

It's too late to say anything, because there is nothing left to remedy and no chance to do so.

"Report it to the city, you can't hide this matter." Bu Shiwen felt exhausted and said a word.

Soon, the matter was reported, and after a moment of silence on the other side of the phone, Meng Zhao issued an order to hurry up and rescue the survivors, and at the same time send police forces to block the surrounding traffic arteries leading to Kangcheng Town to prevent outsiders from entering.

"The consequences of this incident, I don't say that you also know, if such a big thing happens, even if I can escape responsibility, you can't escape, the only way now is to cover this matter first, and then find a way." Meng Zhao said to Sun Shiwen on the phone.

"Block all passages, block all communications, block all media, and then open Cannes until the matter is dealt with!" Sun Shiwen thought of Meng Zhao's words, and immediately made a ruthless decision, announcing the order to blockade Kangcheng Town.

Six hours after the incident, Yue Shan, secretary of the provincial party committee, who got the news, immediately entrusted Qin Fangchen, secretary of the provincial discipline inspection commission, to rush to Dongshan City to investigate the truth of the incident and deal with the aftermath.

Twelve hours after the incident, Secretary Qin Fangchen finally broke through many obstacles and stood on the high ground outside Kangcheng Town.

Looking at the vast large piece of mud in front of him, and then comparing it with a photo of the original appearance of Kangcheng Town found from the local people's homes, Secretary Qin Fangchen couldn't help but be shocked.

Although I have seen a lot of things such as mining accidents before, after all, they are all small-scale accidents, and it may be a few deaths, dozens of people, which is already quite an amazing accident.

But in front of me, seeing that almost half of a town has been buried, how many lives will be filled in? In Secretary Qin Fangchen's heart, he was not sure at all, or that the number of victims would break through the threshold of several hundred, right?

"It's terrible, it's really a catastrophe!" Secretary Qin Fangchen muttered to himself.
