There are three police wives, who are the wives of officers and soldiers of the Dalian City Public Security Fire Detachment. In the battle to fight the fire on July 16, they were frightened, they were weak, and they soaked their hearts bitter and astringent with tears. They couldn't get to the fire, and they didn't want to wait at home for a call that their husbands had died. They are ordinary women, the epitome of the wives of hundreds of officers and soldiers who participated in the battle of the Dalian Public Security Fire Detachment. After the fire was extinguished on July 16, they were grateful to God for "giving them a husband again".

Seeing them by chance, I asked Sun Qi, director of the Political Department of the Dalian Public Security Fire Detachment: "On July 16, how did the wives of the officers and soldiers who participated in the war spend that night?" ”

Sun Qi said: "I will invite a few police wives to talk to you." The detachment invited the three of them, and the following interview was born. The three are:

Zhao Liming, wife of Li Yongfeng, the captain of the fire brigade of the Development Zone.

Na Jie, the wife of Jiang Lixin, assistant to the squadron leader on duty of the No. 1 Special Service Squadron.

Li Yang, wife of Liu Lei, assistant to the squadron leader on duty of the Dagushan Fire Squadron.

Question 1: Where did you hear about the July 16 fire? How did you spend that night?

Zhao Liming: "My family lives near the fire brigade, just next to the Bubble Cliff Squadron. I could hear the alarm go off every day, and I didn't take it seriously at first. My brother called and asked if the Dagushan oil depot was on fire, do you know? The oil depot caught fire, my head was clouded, and I couldn't get through when I called Li Yongfeng. I don't know where he is. My brother called again and said sister, don't worry, I'll go to the fire to take a look. He was a taxi driver, and he heard from the passenger that the oil depot at Xingang Wharf had exploded, and Li Yongfeng must have been on fire, so he was anxious for me and afraid that I would be anxious. ”

"My brother drove from Dalian to the development zone, and the traffic police stopped him, and he was not allowed to pass at all, and he was already under martial law. He squatted on the side of the road for the night, which I later learned. My brother saw the black smoke billowing from Dagu Mountain, and the fire burned the sky red, do you think Li Yongfeng can come back? He took pity on my sister. My brother squatted on the side of the road all night and smoked three boxes of cigarettes, and he didn't close his eyes all night. He called me and said he saw the fire at Newport Pier and was okay and comforted me. ”

"I was so anxious that I searched the Internet for news of the Xingang fire. At that time, there was only one line on the Internet: 'There was a big explosion in the oil depot area of the Xingang wharf. Nothing else. ”

"How do you think I've spent this night? I can't remember how it happened. I definitely can't sleep, thinking about this fire, thinking about the soldiers of the brigade, thinking about Li Yongfeng. But they didn't dare to think about the danger at all, and they didn't dare to think that they were in danger. At that time, luck prevailed, and it was all about getting through every minute by chance. At worst, people will collapse. ”

At noon the next day, Li Yongfeng called. As soon as I heard his voice, I couldn't hear it, and the tears couldn't stop flowing. His voice was very hoarse, and I could sense at once that he had to suffer so much to have such a hoarse, tired voice. I asked only one word, how are the fighters, and he replied with one word: yes. The phone is turned off. ”

"It's so glad that he's still alive and still on the phone. The fighters are still alive, that's good, it's better than anything. I can't ask too much, I know he cares most about the safety of his fighters. It's good that the fighters are not dead or injured. When I heard Li Yongfeng's voice, I felt that I had already deviated, and a hundred grateful hearts swelled up in my heart. Although I don't know how the battle is going or if there is any danger, I put my heart in my stomach now. ”

Li Yang: "On July 16, it was Friday, and at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, I walked to the hotel with Liu Lei, and his comrades-in-arms set up a table for his son to celebrate the 100th day of the banquet. On the way, Liu Lei received a call from the team, and then ran away and threw me on the street, leaving only one sentence: Don't forget to give the gift money to your comrades. ”

"Liu Lei took a taxi and went to the fire, I didn't take it seriously. Usually when he receives a fire alarm, he always runs away, like I don't exist. ”

"When I arrived at the wine table, I heard from my comrades-in-arms that the oil depot at Xingang Wharf exploded and caught fire, which was Liu Lei's management area. I understood all of a sudden, and I was so scared that I couldn't move my hands and feet. When I took a taxi home, I didn't know what to do, and the more I thought about it, the more scared I became. On the street, the two of us broke up, maybe it was a farewell. ”

"I can't help but think that we don't have children yet, and we're getting ready to have them. The thought of this brings tears to my eyes. If Liu Lei sacrifices, he will not become a father before he becomes a father, and I will become a widow before I become a mother. ”

I sent three text messages to Liu Lei:

1. God bless you, we haven't had children yet.

Second, the oil smoke is toxic, and you should wear an air respirator.

3. Our mother burns incense at home and asks the Buddha to bless you.

It's a pity that Liu Lei didn't read any of these text messages. He tucked his mobile phone into his clothes, and it was also wet with water guns and foam guns and scrapped. ”

"This night, I think back to the same feeling as the Wenchuan earthquake on May 12. Liu Lei participated in the rescue, there was no news, I looked at the ceiling with wide eyes, hoping that the phone screen would be on, but there was no phone. I remember that Liu Lei's comrades-in-arms said at the wine table that there are hundreds of oil tanks in Dagushan, and if there are serial explosions, no one can save them. ”

"The next morning - thanks to CCTV - I saw Liu Lei, he appeared on CCTV news, and he lost a lot of weight overnight, but fortunately, he was still alive. I never imagined that Liu Lei, who could not be found in the sky or on the earth, would appear on TV. His expression and expression were like those of the Red Army's Long March after a month of suffering, and his voice was so hoarse that he couldn't speak. ”

Najie: "On the evening of the fire, I was walking around the downstairs community with my children in my arms, and my neighbors said that the oil depot at Xingang Wharf exploded, and the oil flowed into the sea, and the sea was all red. ”

"I panicked when I heard it, where is Jiang Lixin? The No. 1 Special Service Squadron he was in undertook the most dangerous, hardest, and most tiring mission, and the oil depot blew up, didn't he move forward?"

"I couldn't get through when I called him, and no one answered when I called the team, so I went on TV and the Internet to watch what was going on with the fire at the oil depot at Xingang Wharf, but I didn't find any information."

"I put the child to sleep and shivered. At 12 o'clock in the evening, my little sister got off work and came to accompany me. Xiaomei said that the explosion was heard more than once, five or six times, and the neighbors heard it, so it was really worrying. There was an explosion, who could escape? If something happens to Jiang Lixin, what will I do with the child, the child is only 3 and a half years old. My little sister comforted me, shedding tears while comforting. ”

"I didn't sleep that night, just talking to my little sister. If I didn't speak, the silence was so terrible that I kept talking and didn't dare to stop. ”

The next day, Jiang Lixin's phone still couldn't get through. At that time, the streets were full of red fire trucks, whining and speeding away. My child didn't understand what was going on, but he was happy to see the fire truck and told his neighbors that my dad had gone to put out the fire, and he was very proud. ”

The neighbor's aunt and aunt wiped away tears when they heard this. I thought to myself, son, you may not have a father, what are you happy about? ”

Question 2: How many days does your husband come home?

Li Yang: "Liu Lei didn't go home until two weeks, and after the fire was extinguished, there were a lot of things, such as vehicles, equipment, and soldiers resting. When he came home and changed his clothes, I saw that his legs were black, like frostbite, and as if they had been burned in the fire, and red flesh sprouts grew in the middle of the black skin. I was so distressed that I couldn't speak, a big living person had suffered such a great sin. ”

Within a few days, he began to lose skin on his body, and half a month has passed, and his body is still peeling. Peeling off layer after layer, the heat radiation burns deep into the skin. ”

Seeing him like this, I wanted to cry, but I couldn't cry, and my nose was so sore that I couldn't cry. He comforted me, what are you crying about? Isn't the development zone good? What am I? ”

"I asked him, aren't you afraid?"

"Liu Lei said, why am I afraid? Can I be afraid? I'm an assistant squadron leader on duty, what should I do if I'm afraid of the fighters? When I was putting out the fire, my mind was empty and I couldn't think of anything. ”

"I asked, do you think of sacrifice."

Liu Lei paused and said, such a big fire, you can save it, if you can't save it, you have to die."

Zhao Liming: "Team Li didn't go home until half a month later, he was dark and thin, and he looked taller than before. My 12-year-old daughter cried when she saw him and said, "Daddy, I can't remember what you look like." ”

Li Brigade couldn't speak when he wanted to, his voice was hoarse, and when he saw his daughter crying, he shed tears. I comforted him, isn't this coming back safely? Peace is good. ”

"I said, you don't have to say anything about the fire, don't think about anything, just have a good rest."

"Brigade Li often sat on the sofa and stared at the ceiling, suddenly stood up, and said as he walked: 72 people were brought in alive, and 72 people were brought out alive."

There is not a single sentence in these two sentences. He said it many times, as if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he did not believe that the 72 officers and men of the brigade had returned alive, and I guessed that he had taken his comrades out of the fire, but he did not believe that this was the truth, and persuaded himself to believe it over and over again. ”

"I repeatedly advised him, the soldiers are all right, you can rest. When he fell asleep, he would sit up and say that I brought 72 people in alive, and I brought out 72 people alive. ”

"I feel very sad when I see him like this."

Na Jie: "Jiang Lixin didn't want to mention the fire, as soon as he said this, he would take the conversation away." ”

Zhao Liming: "I never mentioned the matter of July 16 to Team Li, I think his heart has never fallen, and he is always worried about the soldier having an accident." ”

Li Yang: "Liu Lei agreed with me that you can ask me anything about the fire, but you can't mention Zhang Liang to me." As soon as he heard Zhang Liang's name, he burst into tears. ”
