After Zhang Xuegong arrived at the fire scene, the position was set up in front of the OTD, and he held a foam gun and fought for four and a half hours. The portrait was stupid, others called him and pushed him, but Zhang Xuegong didn't react. Later, his comrades sprayed water on him, and he woke up.

There was a red light on the fire field, Zhang Xuegong was less than 3 meters away from the fire, and behind the fire was a 500 mm thick 0TD pipe. Zhang Xuegong saw at a glance that this pipeline was a chemical product, and fighting here was equivalent to extinguishing a fire on a ** pile, and he felt that he was dead this time.

Zhang Xuegong's strongest desire was to take out his mobile phone and call his parents in Pingyi County, Shandong Province, to say goodbye, but he never had his hands free. After being awakened by his comrades-in-arms with a water gun, he took a short break and took out his mobile phone, but felt that the call was really impossible to call his parents. He called his girlfriend back home and asked her to bring something nice to see his parents. Girlfriend asked why? Zhang Xuegong said no. But he thought to himself, this time he couldn't go back.

Zhang Xuegong is the squad leader of the special service squadron of the Liaoyang City Public Security Fire Detachment, born in 1986, enlisted in the army in 2003, and is a native of Pingyi County, Shandong Province. Before he came out to join the army, he had never seen rice and white flour. became a soldier and ate rice and white noodles, but also experienced many dangers. In 2008, Zhang Xuegong went to Qingchuan County, Sichuan Province to rescue earthquake victims, and stayed in the wooden attic of his hometown at night. In Qingchuan, he had seen countless dead people, the place where the stairs turned the most dead, his hands were bloody, the handles of the cement prefabricated slabs were worn out, bleeding, and more blood on his hands came from the bodies of the deceased. At that time, I was scared, but I didn't expect that on the fire ground on July 16, death had really come to my side.

On May 13, 2009, Zhang Xuegong participated in the rescue of highway fuel tankers. The tanker truck caused an accident and the valve under the tank was knocked out. The leaking oil pressure is too great to plug in. Zhang Xuegong used the mound as a shelter and used a foam gun to cool the leakage point to avoid a large explosion. He fought from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. for 10 hours in a row. Tiredness is still a trivial matter, the key is the fear of a big explosion. During the battle, the fuel tanker "soared" out of the fire, the original tire was burned, when Zhang Xuegong stepped forward to rescue, the flowing oil drilled into the glove, he drilled his heart to pain, pulled out his hand to see, fell off a layer of skin, the oil has produced a high temperature.

It's a crime to be a firefighter. Build an iron army, climb 10 floors with a weight of 50 kilograms, and run down from the 10 floors with a 60 kilogram dummy. This crime is unbearable for ordinary people, and it is just commonplace in the Liaoning Provincial Public Security and Fire Brigade.

Whether it's on Qingchuan or on the highway rescue, at most it's a brush with death, this time I returned to the 7.16 fire, but I was in face-to-face contact with death, and there was nowhere to run. Zhang Xuegong recalled that the deepest impression was sweating, I don't know how much sweat I had on my body, the temperature of the fire reached thousands of degrees, and I was afraid that I sweated a lot. He asked his comrades to draw water on him, and his heart was a little cooler. He grabbed a water gun and fed water on the recruits. At that time, water calms down.

I was also impressed by hunger. The rice distributed in the first two days of the fire was steamed bread and pickles, and I couldn't eat enough. I was tired and exhausted, so I suppressed the feeling of hunger. At night, they slept on rocks in the open air, and as soon as their bodies touched the ground, they fell asleep, sweeter than sleeping on eiderdown mattresses.

On the third day, they began to cool the protective slope retaining wall on the north side of tank 103, which was more than 6 meters high and 1,500 meters long, and the fire was burning under the wall. If the wall burns down, a major landslide will occur, the pipes and tanks will collapse, and with oil and fire, the consequences will be unimaginable. They used Class A foam to extinguish the flowing fire more than 3 meters high under the wall, and it took five hours to extinguish the fire. At that time, the water cannon hit the wall, the cement fell off the slag, and the wall burned crispy. Needless to say, it is very dangerous to start a fire under such a wall, and if the wall collapses, people will be buried in it in an instant. On the fire ground, the danger does not just come from burning or exploding, there are many kinds of danger that cannot be explained.

Zhang Xuegong and the soldier Feng Lei put a foam gun, and they fought from morning to night, from the first day to the fifth day. Zhang Xuegong's thought in his heart was: if you insist on one point, you will win one point, and if you have one more hope of survival, you can see your parents alive.
