Zhang Lixin, a non-commissioned officer of the second phase of the Qigong Squadron of the Shenyang Public Security Fire Detachment, is the assistant to the squadron leader on duty. Non-commissioned officers have days off. July 16 was a Friday, and Zhang Lixin went to the market in the evening to buy vegetables and prepare dumplings. When he received the alarm call, he threw down the carrots, fennel and pork filling in his hand, scattered his legs and ran to the team. When I arrived at the squadron, I quickly changed into combat clothes and rushed to Dalian with my comrades.

When the car arrived at the Liaoyang section, Zhang Lixin remembered that there was still such a thing as making dumplings, and called his daughter-in-law to say that it was on fire, but he didn't say what the fire was. The fire fighting vehicle he was sitting in was loaded with 4 people, the on-board radio was off-network, and the conversation between the leaders could be heard - "Very urgent, hurry up and hurry up, bubble, bubble ......" Zhang Lixin has never heard the leader be in such a hurry.

In the second half of the night, when I entered the fire, the sky was all red. The car drove for another 20 minutes and entered the position. Zhang Lixin enlisted in the army in 2003 and is a veteran. It is customary for them to go into the fire to see where the fire is burning from and where it is burning. There are no such things here, I can't see where they are burned, they are all burned. I don't know where it burned, there is nothing in front of me that is not burning, the land, roads, pipes, oil tanks, and walls are all burning.

Within a few minutes, Zhang Lixin and his comrades entered the fire position of the valve group. When Zhang Lixin used a foam gun to light, he found that there were two kinds of fire in front of him. One is a pillar of fire that erupts upwards from the pipe, and the other is a fire flowing from the ground. They first went out to move the cannon to suppress the fire, and the cannon ** out such a ferocious flow of water seemed to have little effect on the fire, and then changed tactics, they drilled under the valve group to fire.

People go down to the valve group, and the torment is unbearable. The officers and men of the Qigong Squadron were equipped with advanced fireproof combat uniforms, but they were still scorching hot. At this time, people are not 10 or 5 meters away from the fire, but with the fire. Zhang Lixin clearly remembered that the fireproof helmet was baked, the red paint burst out, and the silver protective film of the goggles was baked. Zhang Lixin and Guo Renfeng put a foam gun, and Yu Yang and Cheng Binbin put a foam gun, and used foam cross-cutting to extinguish the fire pillar of pipeline leakage.

Below the valve group is a pipe channel, which is blocked by a protective embankment on the side adjacent to the No. 37 oil tank, and the flowing fire merges into a fire pool in the pipe channel. Zhang Lixin saw that the manhole cover of the sewer in the fire site was bursting all over the sky, and he didn't know which one under his feet was an uncovered well. The well is more than two meters deep, and if it falls into the oil at a temperature of thousands of degrees, it will definitely die. He asked Guo Renfeng to follow him, probed and walked step by step with his feet, and then attacked after standing firmly.

There are 4 cement piers at the valve group to support the main valve of the pipeline switch, and they lie down to fight the fire of the upper pipeline. The pillars of fire at the first three leaks were suffocated and extinguished by strong foam, and the four of them began to hit the pillars of fire at the fourth leak point. At this time, the first three leakage points all burned up and re-ignited. The July 16 fire has added a lot of new knowledge, and things that have not been seen by fire prevention experts have happened here. For example, the high temperature of the water vapor generated by the foam liquid hitting the pipe can ignite the crude oil, and the fire at these three leakage points is the water vapor and the fuel vapor is burned. Under certain circumstances, water and fire are no longer separated, and it is not feasible to use water to extinguish oil fires.

After the pillars of fire at the first three leaks erupted, the four of them were enveloped in the fire, and they couldn't withdraw if they wanted to. Zhang Lixin really felt at this time that the figure was pushed into the oil pot and fried and roasted, and the pain was really indescribable. Zhang Lixin's whole body shrunk into a ball.

Instructor Xie Lifeng shouted: "Quickly hit the foam on your body!" They frothed each other with their two guns, and when they got wet, they came to a better sense.

At that moment, Zhang Lixin remembered many battles. I don't usually think about these things, and I don't want to think about them. In the autumn of 2009, a fire broke out in a foam lunch box factory in Yuhong District, Shenyang. The factory is 9 meters high, and it is divided into three layers, each layer is paved with steel plates, and lunch boxes are stacked. The foam lunch box burns up, and the fire is particularly fast. The soldiers fired the first layer of the ground, and he carried a water gun up the iron ladder to the second level. At this time, he made a mistake that firefighters should not make - not to step into the fire steel plate. Zhang Lixin rushed to the second floor with a water cannon and suddenly broke through a distance of more than 10 meters and extinguished a fire. The third layer of burning lunch boxes fell with a clatter, and he didn't notice it. At this time, he felt that the air breathing apparatus was hot, it shouldn't be hot? Then his scalp became hot, and when he looked down, the steel plate under his feet was already red, and the lunch box on top had turned into soup poured on his head, and he didn't even notice it. His position is like a steamer, with fire up and down. Fortunately, he found out quickly, withdrew and reorganized his position, and extinguished the fire. If Zhang Lixin had gone too far on the steel plate on the second floor, and the red-hot steel plate had burned the hose or burned out the combat boots, he would not have been able to come out of it.

Another year, a fire broke out in the Daxi electronics market in Shenyang City, and all the city's fire brigades participated in the fire fighting battle. When they entered the market, it was full of smoke and no fire in sight. Zhang Lixin entered the second floor through the safe passage, pushed the door, and the smoke rolled out, still unable to see the fire, but the temperature roasted his face. It is difficult for people to move forward, and the temperature is too high. Leader Liu Zuoxiang ordered: "Zhang Lixin, if you can't take this position, don't do it." "They set up water cannons in front and water cannons in the back, forced their way through, and crawled inside. The second floor is full of small rooms, and I don't know where the fire starts, so I need to search room by room. They divided into three groups and alternately went in. Zhang Lixin and a new soldier inspected the fire point, and after taking a few steps, the new soldier's hands trembled, it turned out that there was something wrong with the air breathing apparatus, which almost suffocated the new soldier to death. Zhang Lixin carried him out. After a while, the new soldier rushed in and entered the fire with Zhang Lixin. The SCBA is rated for 40 minutes, and in less than 20 minutes, the new fighter's air breathing apparatus runs out of oxygen. The recruits are nervous, gasping for air, and the compressed air is consumed quickly. Zhang Lixin took off the air breathing apparatus, put it on the new soldier, and led him downstairs from another building. At this time, Sui Xiaohang, a squadron cadre waiting at the door, was scared, 40 minutes had passed, and Zhang Lixin and the new soldiers had not come down. Sui Xiaohang sent someone upstairs to look for him, but he couldn't find anyone. Sui Xiaohang was so anxious that he was covered in sweat, and when Zhang Lixin ran over to report for duty, Sui Xiaohang's heart fell into his stomach. On the fire, there is always life and death.

Come back and talk about the 7.16 fire. Zhang Lixin, Guo Renfeng, Yu Yang and Cheng Binbin sprayed foam at each other, and then used the foam sealing method to fight the fire pillar of the third leakage, and after extinguishing it, then hit the fire of the second leakage, and then the first leakage, all of which were extinguished, and then hit from the first, second, and third leakage ports to extinguish the fire pillar of the fourth leakage.

The steel wall of the fourth leak was burned, and the foam gun could not find an angle. Zhang Lixin saw a bent ladder, he stepped on it to make foam at the pipe loophole, the ladder suddenly collapsed, Zhang Lixin closed his eyes, thinking that this time was over, and fell into the oil pool, but fortunately, the ladder did not fall down, allowing him to stand firm.

When they lit the fire, they were only a meter away from the fire, and if they didn't wear helmets and masks, their faces would be burned. At this time, I was really scared, and when I was firing, I could hear all kinds of sounds, the sound of foam guns hitting the fire, the whistle of oil vapor spewing out of pipes, the cracking of steel walls, and the sound of explosions in the distance.

Zhang Lixin will never forget these voices. He and his comrades-in-arms used two water cannons to cut the pillars of fire that blocked these leaks in turn, and the cycle repeated. They don't know when it's over, and as long as the fire is still burning, they will keep fighting. No one knows when it will hit.

I don't know what to expect on the fire. In December 2007, a fire broke out in waxed crude oil at a company in Xinmin City, and the oil tank inside the wall caught fire, and the pipeline outside the wall caught fire. Zhang Lixin rode on the wall and fired with a foam gun. The fire was extinguished, and he saw that the walls were covered with thistles, and he wondered why he didn't feel it. When I went home, my buttocks and thighs were full of bloody holes, and I didn't feel any pain at the time.

In 2008, Shenyang Auto Parts City caught fire and was saved for several days. Zhang Lixin and his comrades-in-arms entered the fire from the main entrance of Nanjing Street, and the fire rolled out of the window. On the 150-kilogram body of the ladder truck, four of them stood with a safety rope around their waists to draw water from the window, and then entered the storeroom of the building through the window. Zhang Lixin and his comrades-in-arms fought with a water gun for 13 hours without stopping, and after coming out, Zhang Lixin fell asleep with the water gun. They were fortunate to have withdrawn from the warehouse in time, and as soon as they went downstairs, the fire burned down the shelves and blocked the staircase, and when they came down a little later, they burned to death inside. Zhang Lixin didn't know about these situations at that time, and he slept very sweetly with the water gun.
