At night, the provincial city area is prosperous like a song.

Ten kilometers away, there was a tragic image waiting for them to save.

"Beep! Beep! ”

"Damn, this pickup truck doesn't even have a bell to say!"

Hao Chengbin heard that there was a fire alarm, and it burned quite big, looking at the slow traffic in front of him, and the traffic light that must wait for the next trip to pass, he became a little irritable.

Finally, when there were still three cars in front, the green light turned red, and in 99 seconds, Hao Chengbin stepped on the brakes heavily, hung up a neutral gear, and looked ahead.

"Did they bring my combat uniform?"

Fang Huai touched his head and said with a smile: "I don't know, they will deal with it when they arrive, squad leader, you will be a platoon commander of dozens of people in the future, you have to lean on the command position, and your sister-in-law is also pregnant, so don't take risks." ”

", I'm a soldier." Hao Chengbin waved his hand, turned his head to look at Yu Ming behind him, and said:

"What are you bringing a kid for?"

Yu Ming opened his mouth, wanting to argue about the word "child", but when he saw Hao Chengbin's shoulder, he knew that he was a veteran, so he didn't dare to speak.

Xu Sanduo's finale was not mixed with such two crutches, and the old squad leader Shi Jin was only two crutches.

Fang Huai smiled and asked rhetorically, "By the way, are you still going to lead troops this year?" ”

"The squadron is busy, forget it."

Fang Huai said: "Go ahead, be a regimental secretary, break into the internal strategy of the new regiment, and get a few good seedlings back." ”

Hao Chengbin shook his head: "The regimental clerk is a fart inside, follow the inspection every day, I can't see anything at all, if you want to recruit soldiers, you have to lead the class, if you want to recruit soldiers, you should let Lao Huang go, he can be an instructor." ”

Fang Huai laughed.

"Lao Huang is going to mention, the deputy battalion, he is also a staff officer, do you remember the staff officer who hid from calling last year, right? As for Lao Huang's temper, working with those staff officers, either everyone else is uncomfortable, or Lao Huang is uncomfortable. You lead the troops... Then forget it, I'll arrange two more people to go, I think you go to the regiment headquarters, you can take frequent vacations, take your sister-in-law for prenatal checkups or something, Lao Hei knows your situation, and you must take care of you. ”

"Forget it." Hao Chengbin re-pulled the gear lever and said, "I have spent many years in the New Year Corps, and this year I want to accompany your sister-in-law to have a good Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the squadron." ”

Fang Huaile was happy: "You're thinking about fart." ”

Hao Chengbin glared, just about to scold, but when he thought of something, he laughed, shook his head, and released the brakes.

Indeed, in the squadron, you still want to have a good Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, what do you think?

Regarding the nature of the reinforcements of the second squadron and the good equipment distributed, the command center must not send orders frantically during the New Year?

The car drove forward, and the two of them chatted one after another.

Yu Ming in the back listened quietly to their chat, but he didn't know that the "old black" and "staff officer" in the topic would be the big people who would make him a god in the next three months.

……

"The third! Bring your bucket and bucket over! ”

"Come on, come on."

"Trunk plus two plates! The water separator position is forward, quickly! ”

It's a fire.

When Hao Fang and the others arrived, a series of rows of tiled houses on the high ground had already burned four of them.

Moreover, the road at the entrance of the house is narrow, and the terrain is higher than the main road, which is called "Tiankan" in Guizhou.

The fire truck should have arrived not long ago, but it couldn't get in, and it was paving more than 200 meters of trunk line from the intersection of the main road.

Fortunately, the current No. 2 Squadron is strong and strong, and only three vehicles came, but there were about 30 people on the scene, laying a 200-meter trunk line, and producing two guns.

It seems that there are too many people, and the following sequence of the second squadron has to be adjusted.

He knew that Cao Yi wanted to familiarize the newcomer with the vehicle configuration as soon as possible, but there were more than a dozen people in a car, just thinking about it, he knew what it was like to be crowded on the way to come, and he was photographed by others, and people thought that we were moving closer to Brother San'er.

Fang Huai got out of the car, went to the fire truck to take a look at the terrain, and found that the sparks were obviously scattered.

The rural areas of Guizhou are inseparable from a mountain character, out of the city, you can't see the plains, and the farmers have a variety of terraced fields.

There are many mountains, and there are many trees.

It's December, and it's time for dry weather and frequent wildfires.

Thinking of this, Fang Huai said loudly to a few privates in front of the car:

"You guys, don't stick here! Song Lin! Bring the forest fire water storage bag to the side of the position, and put it on the shelf! Let the above pump out the water into the bag, Xiao Haishan take the pump, Han Yong take two plates of 40 water hoses and water guns, take out a small gun, go to the hill above the house to swim around, press the flames, don't let the sparks flutter everywhere! ”

"Good!"

Several of the privates moved with smiles on their faces.

This month, there are more and more people in the squadron, but there is still a long way to go before the plan is full, so the joint police policy has not yet come down, so this class of privates has finally gone from being vigilantes at the beginning to combatants, and now they are back before liberation.

Wang Peng was a little stunned when he saw that all the people around him were gone:

"Squadron! What about me? ”

Fang Huai turned his head, pointed to Yu Ming on the side of the pickup truck, and said:

"I'll give you a mission! Later, you take him around the fire, help move things, show him, and keep him safe! ”

Wang Peng glanced at Yu Ming in the distance, a little confused:

"He is..."

"This year's firefighting recruits! Not enlisted yet! Don't you want to be a class leader? Let you feel the taste of bringing new recruits in advance! With the man in place, the fire is over, and I have to ask him what he has learned! ”

Wang Peng was stunned for a moment, and then, for the first time, such an excited smile appeared on his face.

"Okay!"

With that, he jumped up and down towards the pickup truck.

Fang Huai then walked up the field and arrived next to Cao Yi.

An ordinary type of fire alarm, except for the burning point, there is nothing special, that is, the road is not very good, far away from the main intersection, and there are so many 80 trunk hoses in the car, only one trunk line and two guns can be produced, and the pressure is maintained to fight a war of attrition.

It's just that Fang Huai saw an old couple sitting not far away sighing, and a group of people were also around them blaming why they were so careless, and they felt that they had to figure out the cause of the fire, so as not to blame the problem afterwards.

I walked up to the peasants and asked, and quickly figured it out.

The cause of the fire was the stove that one of the families had just burned, and the cloth sofa that had been bought from the city.

The sofa was pulled in the summer, and it has been placed on the side of the stove, and there is a corner that is quite close to the sofa, but because the stove has not been used in the summer, the old couple has forgotten about the stove, so they went to the door, and when they were called back, it was already in flames.

When I think about it again, I can only beat my chest and feet, cry and wipe my tears.

Fang Huai saw that the two of them were very simple, and they also said 1510 about the cause of the fire, without denial, and the appearance of wiping tears in a hurry made him sigh and walked to the fire truck down the slope.

As I walked, I picked up the walkie-talkie and said:

"Did someone bring me my combat suit?"

"Squadron! I'm going to put the number one car for you! ”

"Okay, I'll take three 65s and get another gun, and the pressure on the car will be more in a while."

"Fang team, now the remote water supply, the pressure is already big enough, no matter how big it is, the main water belt is easy to blurt out."

"Let's blurt it out again, the old couple is very pitiful, extinguish it early, pay less compensation, you should pay attention to your hands and feet, the property in each house can be guaranteed."

"Okay."

"Roger!"

On the mountain, the voices of comrades-in-arms were also heard.

"The pressure of the No. 1 gun is low, and it is close to hit!"

This kind of fire, the firefighters deal with it differently, and the situation after the end is completely different.

At the same fire point, it is a circumference, and the water is accurately discharged in the face of the fire source, or it is directly demolished, and a large amount of water is discharged from outside the wall to cover the fire source, and the loss situation is completely different.

Fang Huai's sentence of "pay attention to your hands and feet" may add a little disposal time to this fire, but it may save the old couple some compensation fees.

When Fang Huai changed into a combat uniform and went uphill, some of the extra manpower had already come into play, and he was moving electrical appliances from a side room that had been doused with water and green smoke.

Wang Peng didn't let Yu Ming in, but just asked him to straighten out the things he moved out and be optimistic.

But this guy looked very excited, obviously it was the first time to participate in such a work of serving the people, and his eyes were blazing at the back of the firefighter who kept pouring out the fire, which was completely different from when he came.

Firefighting work also has magic, as long as you are not numb, you have seen the scene of the disaster, and think about the meaning of your existence, it is easy to have a sense of belief in devoting yourself to greatness.

As soon as Fang Huai's third gun was connected, he began to step on the side door from the side suite where the fire was smaller, and the water splash carefully avoided some of the dry bud valleys hanging on the beams, and sprinkled them in the direction of the smoke, until some green smoke was stirred up and the source of the fire was found, and then it was covered for a while.

This kind of rural tiled house that is ventilated on all sides, the smoke theory he made out at the military academy is not very applicable, and he can't use too much technology.

But there are also advantages, there are courtyards in the countryside, the surroundings are open, the houses are low, the fire source is also very clear, as long as you take a look at the scene situation, whether it is interception, breakthrough or division, tactics are easy to choose, with a veteran like Cao Yi, there is almost no mistake, which is also the reason why he is not in a hurry on the road.

If you think about it carefully, the second squadron is very comprehensive, and every cadre who pulls it out is a good hand who can single-handedly pick up a fire.

It's just that... Vehicle configuration...

Fang Huai turned his head and said to Zhang Yang, who was holding the water belt behind:

"Say hello to the water truck! With such a large overburned area, one cart of water is definitely not enough! There is a fire hydrant at the south gate one kilometer out of the main road, so let him pay attention to the water level and hurry up to add water after the supply! ”

Zhang Yang nodded: "Don't worry!" I followed the 13 tons, and when I came, I and the squad leader Sun were optimistic! ”

When Fang Huai heard this, he smiled: "Okay, you go, let the full-time team come over with a water belt!" ”

"Good!"

……

The fire was extinguished, and the house cooled down, drying from eight o'clock to eleven o'clock.

The light faded away, and the surrounding light source was replaced by a flashlight and a light cluster from car No. 2 in the distance.

The noisy sound of water has also been replaced by human voices.

"No. 1 and No. 3 guns can be collected first! The No. 2 gun went to sweep outside the house in the middle, and the full-time team followed in with two flashlights! ”

"Squadron! What about the flashlight you just used? ”

"Give it to Liu Jianfeng!"

"Who's got a cigarette on them? I'm all wet with cigarettes in my trouser pockets! ”

Fang Huai, who was in front of the fire room, took out a pack of soft China that was a little soaked in sweat from the camouflage uniform pocket inside, and shook it.

"Here."

Kong Xiangzhong trotted over, took it, and pulled out one.

"Yo! Squadron, you still have cigarettes? Don't you smoke? ”

Fang Huai's hand didn't go back, and shook it again.

"Take it and send it, it's for conscription and running relationships, and you don't need it."

"Tsk." Kong Xiangzhong touched the cigarette and said, "It has to be you Niu B!" You held the gun for two hours, and this soft shell didn't get into the water? ”

Fang Huai grinned: "This is called technology!" Let's learn! ”

Kong Xiangzhong smiled and shouted around: "Captain Fang is smoking!" Soft China, come and get it! ”

"It's coming, it's coming!"

The comrades-in-arms immediately rushed up.

There is no shortage of sensible villagers around, and the firefighters worked hard to extinguish the fire and help rescue the property.

"Liu Erzhong, aren't you going to buy two packs of cigarettes for others?"

The old man came back to his senses and immediately said, "Eh, eh! Comrade, you wait! I'm going to buy you two packs of cigarettes! ”

Fang Huai stepped forward and grabbed him: "Don't buy it, hurry up and contact to see which one can live tonight, your house has burned down, and you can take out what you can take, go find a place to rest first, and come back tomorrow to clean up, remember, you can't go in tonight!" ”

After that, he shouted to the surroundings with some anxiety: "Village cadres! Supervise it! The house can't be occupied at night! ”

A voice came from afar: "Know, don't worry, comrade!" ”

The old man looked at himself and other houses, and choked up a little.

"Comrade! What a man! Thank you! ”

Fang Huai looked at the only pile of pots and pans on the ground, he didn't even have a complete set of clothes, sighed in his heart, took out his hand into his inner pocket, found a stack of money and pinched it in his hand, and took advantage of the night to quietly stuff it into the old man's outer pocket of clothes.

"Call it a day!"

……

The car on the return trip had no police lights and no sound, and it looked a little tired under the reflection of the street lamp project.

The walkie-talkies driven by the three cars sounded Fang Huai's voice at the same time.

"Instructor Cao, you and car No. 1 go back to the gate of the squadron to add water, there is a fire hydrant on the side of the road here, and car No. 3 is here to refill."

"Okay."

At this time, Hao Chengbin's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Fang Huai, this kid doesn't want to leave, he wants to go back to the squadron with us." ”

Fang Huai smiled: "Okay, count him lucky, meet me, stay in our squadron for one night before entering the fire, and then enter the recruit corps, it's enough for him to blow." ”

After receiving Fang Huai's instructions, the pickup truck driven by Hao Chengbin stopped behind the butt of car No. 3.

The people in the car, get down and pull the hose and add water.

Fang Huai also got out of the car and took a breath.

After a while of adding water to the water truck, Zhao Jincheng, Zhang Yang, and Fang Huai just sat on the road, looking around.

It is surrounded by a night market road, the lights in the distance are bright, there are unfamiliar faces everywhere, and the sound of fists is lively.

Hao Chengbin, Zhang Tianwang, and Qin Hongjun in the back car also came down, walked to the side of the road, and leaned down together, enjoying the quiet in the bustle.

Yu Ming followed, didn't dare to sit down, stood next to him, and looked at everyone curiously.

Zhao Jincheng propped his hands on the ground, tilted his head back, turned twice, and let out a groan.

"Uh... My shoulders and neck are so sore that I have to put some medicine on it when I go back. ”

Hao Chengbin patted him with a smile: "When I go back, I will introduce you to an old Chinese medicine doctor." ”

Zhao Jincheng became interested: "Does it work?" ”

Fang Huai listened and smiled: "Don't worry, our squad leader, a senior intermediary of the Provincial Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine." ”

Hao Chengbin's eyes widened, and he was about to raise his hand, when he saw Yu Ming next to him, he wanted to save some face for Fang Huai, and put it down again.

Suddenly, the walkie-talkie on the chest of Fang Huai's combat uniform rang again.

"Fang Huai Fang Huai!"

Fang Huai picked it up: "Received, please speak." ”

"I reported to the command center just now, they said that someone in Jinyang called the police, saying that a lot of snakes raised in a mountain villa ran out, the snakes are poisonous, and people often pass by in the surrounding sections, and I will send you the address!"

Everyone was collectively stunned.

Fang Huai frowned and pressed the walkie-talkie again:

"Has 110 passed?"

"It's on the road, they're not professional, let's rush over first!"

"Roger!"

Fang Huai shouted and immediately got up.

"Let's go, let's get to work."

Zhang Yang stood up suddenly: "You collect the water belt!" I'm going to look for pliers! ”

Everyone didn't care if the water was full or not, and began to unload the hose.

Yu Ming hurriedly followed Fang Huai's side and said, "Fang... Captain, isn't fire extinguishing fire? Does this also matter? ”

Fang Huai glanced back at him, thought for a while, pointed to the traffic not far away, and said:

"See? How peaceful is the night in this city? We have a firefight, and we have a name, the Night Watchman. ”

When the surrounding comrades-in-arms heard this, they all stopped what they were doing, straightened up and laughed.

Night watchman.

They had heard this name a few times when the leader spoke, but it sounded particularly appropriate in the here and now.

Hao Chengbin felt even more in his heart, remembering the words that made him remember deeply, and suddenly smiled and said loudly: "The lights of thousands of homes are shining, soldiers, be the guardians of the sword!" ”

Everyone glanced at each other and said in unison:

"Tonight, every night!"
