Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sea Soars to the Sky

After entering the Dalian fire, Ma Weiming, the head of the Dandong City Public Security Fire Detachment, wanted to get closer to the No. 103 tank. He heard that it was tank 103 that exploded, and that it must have been the main position.

At that time, the fire ground was crowded with vehicles, and the general headquarters could not be found at once, and the fire was raging, covering the sky and the sun. The Dandong detachment could not find a way to tank No. 103. I couldn't get in, I couldn't go out, and I ended up walking to the U-shaped oil loading and unloading dock. Ma Weiming got out of the car to reconnoiter the fire, saw that the land was on fire, and the sea was on fire, and thought to himself that this was the fire of the No. 103 tank, and the entire reservoir area was burning.

Ma Weiming thought to himself that the fire here was so big, so let's set up a position here. Coincidentally, Li Wenxi, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, inspected the situation of various positions. Ma Weiming stepped forward to report and ask for instructions. Li Wenxi's hair was stained with oil, and his chin showed a layer of white stubble, which Ma Weiming had never seen before. Li Wenxi hung a mask on his chin, and his white shirt was stained with oil.

Li Wenxi said: "You have come at the right time, so let's set up a position here." ”

Therefore, the position of the Dandong detachment was not sent by the commander-in-chief, but the combat area found by the head of the Lu Yu Department. It didn't get much attention at the time. Since the explosion and fire started in tank No. 103, everyone's attention was on tank No. 103. But although Ma Weiming's dock defense area is unknown, it is very important. The oil fire from tank No. 103 was all leaked down the sewage outlet to the dock, and the ground was on fire and the sea was on fire. If the fire of the sea is not quenched, let it burn. But the wind direction was wrong, and the fire was blown towards the xylene tank area on the shore, which forced the Dandong detachment to fight against the water and must protect the xylene tank area. Ma Weiming had no choice but to fight alone here, in his words: "It does not involve the energy of the brothers' detachment." ”

On that day, a gale of magnitude eight or nine blew from the sea to the reservoir area, and the fire had already come ashore. Ma Weiming is not afraid. He said: "We are carrying the Frontd 2000 high-efficiency fire extinguishing agent, which is the killer copper against oil fires. ”

The Dandong detachment was the only combat unit in the 7.16 fire field that used the Farand-2000 high-efficiency foaming agent. This kind of foam is Ma Weiming's heart, 150,000 yuan per ton, which is 50 times the price of ordinary foam. Usually, Ma Weiming was reluctant to use it at all and kept it. It has a shelf life of 20 years, which comes in handy this time. Foam and water to hit the oil on the ice hand, hit a piece, is a piece, the effect is particularly good. Therefore, the fire extinguishing effect of the Dandong detachment was very outstanding.

At present, the first priority is to prevent the sea surface from burning to the xylene tank farm. The 36 officers and soldiers of the Dandong detachment and 5 foam trucks built a life-and-death defense line on the wharf and swore to protect the xylene tank farm. Ma Weiming deployed four foam guns to strafe the sea surface left and right in a zigzag pattern, and with the cooperation of the harbor fire boats, the sea surface flow fire was controlled near the sewage gate, reducing the threat of fire to the xylene tank area.

After the fire on the sea surface was effectively controlled, Ma Weiming ordered the position to move forward to control and eliminate the source of the fire at the sewage gate. Officers and soldiers used two foam guns to pour a large amount of FAANDE 2000 high-efficiency foam liquid into the sewage gate to stop the upward spread of the oil fire at the sewage gate. The other two foam guns controlled the flowing fire from the sewage outlet to the sea surface, which reduced the temperature of the leaked crude oil, slowed down the spread of the flowing fire, and grasped the initiative of the fire.

At this moment, it is almost dawn, the wind direction has changed, and the fire flowing on the sea surface has not posed a threat to the xylene tank farm, everyone took a breath, and then found that the oil pipeline on the east side of the wharf was scorched by the fire, the protective layer fell off, and the pipeline was deformed. The detachment immediately adjusted its forces and cooled the oil pipeline with a mobile water cannon, and two other foam guns were pushed in parallel to extinguish the flowing fire on the ground. After several hours of hard work, the fire along the pier was finally completely extinguished.

Before the leaders of the Dandong detachment came, there was a division of labor, and they were responsible for logistics, water guns, water sources and vehicles. When they arrived at the fire site, the fire disrupted all these division of labor, everyone stepped forward to put water guns, cadres and soldiers were on the front line, living and dying together, and no one retreated.

At dawn, Ma Weiming received a call from the General Headquarters asking where he was, and Ma Weiming reported his position, position, and combat history. Deputy Director Liu Leguo and Captain Wang Luzhi were very satisfied after hearing this, and said yes again and again. At the end of the battle, the general captain Wang Luzhi came to the Dandong position and said: "It is not easy for you to have such a large area in the combat area!" ”
