005: All-Out Confrontation (2)
With the determination to complete the mission, Sang Yong and his two comrades rushed into the fire in full armor.
Rushed into this dangerous place.
Normal tank valves are electric, because the explosion cuts off the circuit and can only be closed manually.
If it is an electric closing valve, it takes 30 seconds to complete, but if it is replaced by manual rotation of 80 turns, it can be turned down to a button, and if you want to close it all, then you need to turn 80,000 turns, yes, you read that right, 80,000 turns can close the valve of a tubing, and there are a total of four oil storage tanks in front of them, which means that they have to rotate 320,000 times.
On average, each of the three of them has to make more than 100,000 turns.
This is simply a huge challenge for Sanyong.
Without thinking too much about it, the three of them began to turn after confirming the direction of change.
Circle after circle, their arms kept waving, and the anger not far away from them was still burning frequently, and they had to complete this task as quickly as possible.
The fire suddenly appeared less than three meters away in front of Sang Yong, which made Sang Yong use the strength to feed, and the fire wave roasted his face very painfully, and the pungent breath had a feeling of wanting to suffocate.
Pipelines and manhole covers in their vicinity continued to explode, and the manhole covers were blasted into the sky by waves of fire.
The staff of the enterprise kept rushing in with waves of people to help them close the valves, but they all retreated in fright when the explosion sounded, and slowly the three of them were left.
The fireproof clothing was so hot that it felt like it was being steamed and roasted, and every inch of skin was crying out in pain.
I couldn't bear it anymore, so I took off my heat-insulating suit, and I took off my protective mask when I couldn't breathe well.
A pair of gloves were quickly blistered, the blister was worn out in the next second, and then it was scalded when it hit the high-temperature valve, and it was repeated over and over again, and soon blood flowed out of the glove.
The gloves of the three warriors were all stained red, and the valves in their hands were also stamped with circles of blood.
The high temperature quickly solidified the blood on the valve, which was originally silver and slowly turned red.
The body is constantly steamed and roasted by the high temperature, so that their water is constantly flowing away, and the continuous consumption of physical strength slows down their speed a little.
I was so thirsty that I stopped and unscrewed the hose and drank it directly to the hose.
After drinking, wipe your mouth and continue to work.
The steel valve became heavier and heavier as it went, as if it weighed a thousand pounds, and the sweat cleared through their clothes, and continued to flow down the fireproof suit pants into the shoes, and soon they felt like their feet were stepping on the water.
Persistence was the only thing they could do, and the warriors outside were desperately fighting for this fight, and they had no reason to quit.
Sang Yong kept cheering for the two comrades beside him, and everyone gritted their teeth and turned the valve in a circle.
At this time, the forty attack groups outside all went into battle, attacking on all fronts, and made every effort to extinguish the flowing fire and clear the obstacles for the soldiers who cooled down and extinguished the fire.
Cement, sand and soil continue to build up positions to stop the advance of the flowing fire.
At the same time, the coastal defense department dispatched a fireboat and 14 firefighting tugboats to extinguish the fire at sea.
Transport helicopters in the sky are constantly transporting firefighting materials like here to ensure that the firefighting materials are absolutely sufficient.
After an eight-hour journey, Kang Ming and his team finally arrived at Dalian Xingang at one o'clock in the morning on the 17th.
After arriving at the scene, Kang Ming was shocked when he saw everything in front of him.
He had never seen such a fire, and he felt a tingling in his back.
"Prepare all the equipment and wait for orders!" Turning to all the fighters, he said.
"Yes!"
After finishing speaking, Kang Ming ran out and came to the front of the commander-in-chief to ask for a task.
Seeing that the reinforcements had arrived again, the commander-in-chief had some confidence in victory, and immediately issued the location of reinforcements to Kang Ming and them on the topographic map.
After Kang Ming confirmed, he took out the walkie-talkie and made a deployment to his fighters.
The fighters quickly boarded the car and headed for their respective positions.
Kang Ming had only one order: "Without my order, no one is allowed to retreat!" ”
"Yes!"
Boom! Suddenly, there was another explosion, and with the explosion hit, the flowing fire formed a shock again.
At this time, there was a sudden change at the scene, and the fire flowed along the road surface of the reservoir area, the pipeline entered, and the oil pipeline went straight to the hazardous chemical tank farm across the road.
There are a total of 51 storage tanks in this tank farm, which are filled with toluene, xylene and other chemical raw materials, a total of 120,000 cubic meters, all of which are flammable, explosive and toxic substances, and it is surrounded by LNG receiving stations and residential areas under construction, office buildings in the harbor area and several gas stations, etc.
In the face of such a situation, once an explosion occurs in this tank farm, which causes a series of explosions, and at the same time releases a large amount of toxic gas, the consequences are simply unimaginable.
The commander-in-chief immediately shifted this part to the top priority of this fire fighting and rescue, immediately made new arrangements for the work, adjusted the combat force, and set up a 'life and death defense line' between the oil tank farm and the chemical tank farm, with a very clear purpose, people can die, but the fire must not cross this road.
The anger pushed forward again and again, and was repelled by the fire fighters again and again, the soldiers used the determination of "I am in the position", accompanied by the continuous explosions in the position, they did not have the slightest fear and retreat, so they charged the anger again and again, and pushed forward again and again, it can be said that "every inch of land must be scrambled" is vividly reflected in their bodies.
One meter, two meters, three meters, four meters...... Ten meters, fifty meters, under the leadership of the on-site commander, the soldiers repelled the tongue of fire backwards with a tenacious and fearless spirit, fifty meters is only a distance of fifty steps for us normal people, but for these soldiers, for the whole of Dalian, this is fifty meters between life and death.
Because these 50 meters kept the chemical tanks behind the soldiers away from the danger of fire, because these 50 meters the soldiers tried all their strength, because these 50 meters made the rescue work more smooth.
In order to fight to the death for a long time against the flames, all the firefighters present always cheered each other on their comrades, and every two minutes they would put a dozen foam on each other's bodies to cool them down.
Shoulder to shoulder, help each other, encourage each other, and march towards the fire together, if you stand behind you, you will find that their backs look so small in front of the fire, but their momentum is so powerful, exuding the determination to win that the fire is afraid.
