Chapter 454 The bridge broke off in the ice and snow weather, and the passenger car fell into the river

There have been many civil aviation accidents caused by micro-downbursts in the past few decades, and those who fly planes have learned about these typical air crashes and are well aware of the hazards of various weather.

In general, almost 90 percent of air crashes are weather-related, and most of the dangers encountered by Li Zhan himself are weather-related.

That's why meteorological services are important.

Li Zhan had never encountered a micro-attack storm, he thought that this time he might encounter it, but the Southern 1993 flight he was taking landed safely on Runway 27 of Shortsand Honghua Airport without any danger.

After quickly exiting from the arrival gate, Li Zhan found that it was very convenient to take a civil aviation without carrying weapons, and there was no need to go through cumbersome relevant procedures.

The garrison sent a captain with an old tyrant with the words "Guard" and picket on it, and waited at the arrival gate for more than an hour. When Li Zhan came out, he saw that the old domineering with the license plate of the garrison area was very domineering and parked directly on the side of the road, and the traffic police patrol car with flashing police lights was not far away, and the traffic police on duty didn't even look at the old domineering, it was too domineering to provoke.

After Li Zhan confirmed that the license plate number was correct, he stepped forward to show his documents, and after greeting the captain with the car, he got into the car, and the old domineering roared out, and the driver actually turned on the red and blue police lights of the middle network and occasionally pressed a few high-frequency horns that can only be used by military and police vehicles.

The old is overbearing.

Short sand is also regarded as a military place, the famous National University of Science and Technology is here, this place is a place where soldiers must fight for in history, the army and air force have many institutions stationed here, and the military vehicles that travel to and from the airport are not old and young, so if you don't sit down with the right number, there will really be a thing of picking up the wrong person and getting on the wrong car.

Captain Bai, a staff officer of the Short Sha Garrison District Command, received an order to send people to Zhongnanchang Station before 5 p.m. today, and at 12:05 p.m. when they received them, five hours would be enough in normal times. From the airport expressway, directly transfer to the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, run 300 kilometers, and then turn into the provincial highway and mountain road, run seventy or eighty, enough to reach Zhongnanchang Station.

However, the weather was very bad today, so Captain Bai asked the driver to go as fast as possible when the road conditions were good, and once he got off the highway, the time spent on the road would increase dramatically.

Of course, you can ask your superiors for instructions to postpone the reporting time, but neither Li Zhan nor Captain Bai will consider it, unless there are force majeure factors.

The old domineering road is speeding on the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway, and the driver decisively pulls to a high speed of 150 kilometers per hour on the straight road, and the police lights on the network flicker occasionally at high frequency, and the local vehicles along the way have avoided it as if they have seen a ghost, and some local vehicle drivers scold "It's great to be a soldier, you stink", and some local vehicle drivers and co-pilots say "eighty percent is what emergency military affairs."

In this way, he ran wildly between understanding and incomprehension, and plunged headlong into the ice and snow at a distance of twelve kilometers from the established highway entrance.

"It's stuck in traffic."

The driver reported to the co-pilot's Captain Bai that as an old driver, the vehicle was forced to stop again after several brief congestions of varying degrees, and the driver was well aware of the major congestion.

"Take the emergency lane." Captain Bai did not hesitate and pointed to the "third lane".

The driver drove into the emergency lane with a steering wheel and sounded the siren and ran forward, but before he could drive two kilometers, the emergency lane was blocked. In front of it is a water place car, it is estimated that the congestion is impatient to drive into the emergency lane, so the emergency lane is also blocked.

Captain Bai looked at the time, and decisively turned on the microphone and turned on the megaphone: "Xiang AXXXX, get out of the way!" Get out of the way of the car in front! Vehicles in the emergency lane leave immediately! ”

shouted in an unceremonious tone, and finally reprimanded angrily, and slowly advanced with scolding. Some of the more expensive cars don't know whether the sound insulation is too good or the driver is more **, shouted for a long time and did not move, it was the driver on the side of the reminder before reluctantly moving to the side, and some cheaper cars pretended not to hear, Captain Bai was angry, got out of the car and stepped forward to reprimand him harshly. It's just a hard way to move forward.

Li Zhan's attention was on the weather.

Ice and snow rain, the ground is frozen, and the snow is falling in the air, this strange weather makes Li Zhan worried. It was really snow and rain, which meant that the temperature in the sky was changing very quickly, and there was so much moisture accumulated in the cumulonimbus clouds that it couldn't wait to freeze in the process of landing.

Looking out from afar, the mountains that can be clearly seen are gone, replaced by a white and gray patch, white near and far gray, and the color of the world is much more monotonous.

Li Zhan couldn't help but think of the ice and snow disaster in '08, when he went down from the training base in the north to the second division in Xixian County, and the civil aviation department announced a large-scale delay in flights from the south. At first, many people didn't take it seriously, isn't it just that the snow is heavier and the rain is heavier, it's not a big deal, it's been the case for the past few years. However, when trains in many places in the south began to stop, and a large number of passengers returning to their hometowns for the Spring Festival were stranded in many railway stations, including Guangzhou Station, people realized that they had encountered a disaster. Tens of millions of people were forced to cancel their plans to go home for the Chinese New Year that year.

The damage caused by the rain, snow and freezing disaster is far more than that, and the freight vehicles and returning vehicles running on the highway day and night have been trapped on the highway for several days, which is the biggest crisis in the history of the expressway.

Li Zhan was very worried that the ice and snow disaster of '08 would be repeated.

Finally moved to the high-speed entrance, when Captain Bai just breathed a sigh of relief, after the toll station soon blocked, it happened to be a section of the national highway on both sides of the farmland and forests, except for a few machine farming road intersections there is no other intersection, but the machine farming road intersection you don't know where to go, so the more vehicles are blocked, the more blocked.

Captain Bai said, "Major Li, wait a moment, I'll go and see what's going on." Xiao Zhang, drive as far forward as possible. ”

With that, he got out of the car, took his coat and flashlight from the trunk and walked forward. Li Zhan lowered the window glass, and a biting cold wind poured in, mixed with a drizzle of light snow hitting his face with a piercing pain. Obviously, Captain White was extremely correct in wearing a military coat. Looking at the visibility again, there is drizzle, light snow and some fog, which is basically unclear from 50 meters away, and it is dangerous to see not only clearly without a flashlight.

He is a very experienced captain and staff officer.

This section of the national highway is a two-way four-lane road, but at this time it has been blocked, there are many large trucks occupying two lanes, and some small cars are struggling to squeeze past the curb, but there are still many people trying to try. Slowly, everyone received a bad weather warning text message, knowing that the best way to encounter disastrous weather is of course to rush to the destination as soon as possible, and no matter how bad it is, you must find a place to park and avoid the limelight. It's hard to carry it without food or drink in such a cold weather, and freezing to death is no joke.

Li Zhan asked the driver for a flashlight, got out of the car and followed Captain Bai. When he went to Hanzhong, he didn't bring warm clothes, and only wore a jacket at this time, and he could clearly feel the biting cold. As we walked forward, I heard a noise, and after a while, Captain White ran back.

"Major, the bridge in front of you has collapsed, and a passenger car has overturned into the river." Captain White panted for a while.

Li Zhan immediately said, "Call the police immediately!" You organize other drivers to help save people! Ask Xiao Zhang to come and help! ”

"Yes!" Captain White immediately carried it out.

When a medium-sized passenger car carrying 31 passengers passed a river bridge of more than 100 meters, the south side of the river bridge suddenly collapsed, and the medium-sized passenger car suddenly rolled to the right and fell into the river. This is the main cause of congestion, and thirty-one passengers are at stake.

Li Zhan racked his brains as he ran to the scene of the incident to recall whether there were military units recently, he was not familiar with the distribution of units outside the air force, but he once remembered the specific location of most of the air force units because of the particularity of the units he served.

It is only more than 80 kilometers away from Zhongnanchang Station, and there must be air force units around. When his eyes swept over a heavy dump truck, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be an engineering battalion more than ten kilometers away. He immediately called Zhongnanchang Station and asked them to help contact them as soon as possible.

After doing this, he quickly entered the scene to check the situation.

The visibility is getting lower and lower, and I can vaguely see a medium-sized passenger car turning sideways in the river on the left side, but fortunately it is a shallow river, and there are rocks, and most of the medium-sized passenger car is on the water. There is a drop of about ten meters from the road where the bus overturned, which forms a big obstacle to the rescue work.

Before Li Zhan arrived, there were already more than a dozen drivers trying to save people, and some passengers who climbed out of the carriage on their own were pulled up by them with thick cables, and everyone was chattering and messing about the situation and discussing how to rescue.

Time is of the essence, after Li Zhan greeted the driver of a cheetah black King Kong, he jumped directly on the engine cover and lit up the flashlight and shouted loudly: "Please be quiet!" Please be quiet! I am a major in the Air Force of the People's Liberation Army of Chinese! Please all come and help! Listen to me! If you are a party member, please come to me first and line up! Other comrades lined up! ”

After he repeated the shout several times, a temporary rescue team of dozens of people was formed.

Li Zhanchong said loudly to the team, "Party members, please step forward!" ”

More than a dozen men of different ages strode forward, and at this time, Captain Bai happened to come over and stand there to salute and report the situation to Li Zhan, which greatly increased Li Zhan's prestige.

Li Zhan quickly assigned the task, "Party members and comrades formed a vanguard team to go down to the river with me to save people!" The others were commanded by Captain White to assist us! Xiao Zhang! You clean up the cars around you and try to make as much space as possible, so that all the vehicles can't stay on the bridge! ”

With a few orders, the original chaotic scene disappeared and was replaced by a tense and orderly rescue operation. Under the leadership of Li Zhan, the vanguard of temporary party members resolutely went down to the river to save people. Li Zhan took the lead and walked into the river with the thick hemp rope provided by the truck driver around his waist, and as soon as he stepped into the river, his legs suddenly seemed to be unconscious.

His scalp was numb, and he turned around and shouted, "Don't come down yet!" The river is very icy! ”
