Chapter 3 Emergency Rescue
The sudden bolt from the blue took Zhao Guohai a long time to recover.
He retracted his hand tremblingly and looked at Jiang Yunhao, who was silent.
"Jiang Yunhao, please speak!"
"Secretary Zhao, what else do you want me to say?"
Jiang Yunhao asked word for word.
Zhao Guohai finally lowered his head: "Start rescue work immediately, please do everything!"
Seeing that Zhao Guohai seemed to have aged ten years in an instant, Jiang Yunhao would not say anything more even if he felt resentful in his heart.
He turned his head and immediately gave instructions to Xu Guohong, deputy secretary of the county party committee and executive deputy county magistrate.
"County Magistrate Xu, you immediately summon the heads of relevant departments to rush to the scene of the incident. I will be there soon."
"Yes, County Magistrate."
Although Xu Guohong was not convinced by Jiang Yunhao, he still had principles.
At this time, he also knew that the situation was urgent, so he immediately stood up and left the conference room without saying a word.
"Secretary Li, please contact the public security and fire department. All efforts will be used to support and rescue people."
Li Deshan, deputy secretary of the county party committee and secretary of the political and legal committee, did not dare to neglect and hurriedly agreed.
"Minister Zhenghe, the county's public security and fire department may not have enough manpower. Your People's Armed Forces Ministry needs to provide support at any time."
Sun Zhenghe, the Minister of Human Resources and Arms, nodded sharply: "I will go back and sit in charge. I will provide immediate support as soon as your notice arrives."
After all the necessary work was arranged, Jiang Yunhao followed Liao Wei out of the conference room without saying hello to Zhao Guohai.
Watching Jiang Yunhao and others leave, Zhao Guohai sat back in his seat with a look of confusion on his face.
…
The jeep screeched to a stop at the entrance of the Zhongjing Town Coal Mining Company.
Jiang Yunhao jumped out of the passenger seat, and a circle of cadres who had been waiting immediately gathered around him.
"What's the situation now!?"
Jiang Yunhao took the helmet from the company's vice president of safety and put it on.
"County Magistrate, the situation is very critical, very critical."
The vice president of security was obviously so nervous that he could not speak completely.
Fortunately, the mine manager named Ma on the side took over the conversation in time and began to explain the accident situation to Jiang Yunhao.
Led to the conference room, Director Ma pointed to the map and explained: "Look, County Magistrate, currently, 900 meters away from the shaft, the 102 horizontal tunnel is flooded. What's more serious is that the return air tunnel connected to the 102 horizontal tunnel is also flooded.
Flooded. Currently, almost 120 absentees are trapped in the location of Gate 305, Ninth Gate, and the situation is very dangerous."
"Mr. Ma, please be more specific."
Xu Guohong, who was next to Jiang Yunhao, couldn't help but interject.
"Yes, Secretary Xu."
Mine Director Ma hurriedly explained, "There is already a lot of water underground and the water level is rising quickly. If the water level in the shaft continues to increase, all the miners will be drowned. Even if there are some lucky ones who survive, the ventilation will be blocked.
The space is small and the gas will soon suffocate..."
"Then do you have any way to save me?"
Xu Guohong asked anxiously.
Jiang Yunhao patted Xu Guohong's hand and signaled him not to worry.
If he, the executive deputy county magistrate, is always so anxious, he will easily bring everyone into chaos.
Turning around, Jiang Yunhao asked the mine manager: "Mine manager Ma, how is the current underground drainage situation?"
"County Magistrate, our Zhongjing Town Coal Mine has always strictly followed the "Coal Mine Safety Production Regulations" in terms of drainage. Normally, it should be twenty hours, and the amount of water that has been discharged in twenty-four hours should be discharged."
"But the current situation is that the water volume in the shaft has suddenly increased, exceeding the drainage capacity of the system. Currently, all backup water pumps are used, but the water level is still rising..."
Jiang Yunhao waved his hand to interrupt Mine Manager Ma's words, and asked directly: "In addition to drainage, are there any other rescue plans?"
"I haven't thought of it yet."
Mine Manager Ma shook his head and thought of something immediately, "By the way, there is an abandoned Lane 100 at 880 meters, which is also very close to Lane 102. It may play some role in the rescue."
When Jiang Yunhao heard this, he immediately became energetic and said, "Keep talking."
Mine Director Ma was a little embarrassed, "County Chief, the rescue plan I proposed may be a bit dangerous."
"No matter how dangerous it is, it's better than waiting to die!"
Jiang Yunhao said categorically, "If you have a plan, just tell me and I will make the decision."
Mine manager Ma nodded vigorously and explained his thoughts in detail.
"Alley 100 and Alley 102 intersect at a distance of 1,200 meters. When Alley 102 is flooded, we can find another way to allow rescuers to go down to Alley 100 and carry out rescue operations from there."
Mine Director Ma explained, "However, Lane 100 has been abandoned for a long time, and many places have collapsed. In some places, you can only pass by crawling. It would be very dangerous for rescuers to carry out rescue from there."
After hearing the cause and effect, Jiang Yunhao suddenly felt confident.
It is very common and not uncommon to have backup tunnels and abandoned tunnels under large mines.
If these abandoned tunnels are dangerous, of course they are, but they are basically within control.
As long as the rescuers are professional enough, they have a good chance of rescuing the trapped people through this abandoned tunnel.
With an idea in mind, Jiang Yunhao immediately gave the order.
"Mine Manager Ma, immediately organize experienced rescuers in the mine and prepare to implement this rescue plan."
"Okay, County Magistrate Jiang, we have all the manpower available."
Jiang Yunhao nodded, his eyes falling on Xu Guohong, "Secretary Xu, I will lead the team down the well to rescue people in a moment, and I will leave the command work to you."
Hearing that Jiang Yunhao was going to go down the mine himself, not only Xu Guohong but also Mine Manager Ma panicked.
"County Magistrate, it is very dangerous to go down the well at this time. You should stay on top of the well and take command."
Xu Guohong responded repeatedly: "Yes, County Magistrate, Director Ma and Mine are very experienced in rescue work. Support from the police and fire department is about to arrive, so don't go down there~"
Jiang Yunhao waved his hand lightly, "Don't worry, Secretary Xu. My rescue experience in the army is no less than that of Chief Ma and others."
