The explosion spilled more and more crude oil, and the fire became more and more intense, rushing fiercely towards the largest chemical storage tank.
Everyone is ready to fight to the death.
The safety of the largest chemical storage tank is related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and radioactive contamination for decades to come.
Perhaps apart from war, this will cause the greatest harm to the country.
So everyone is biting the bullet and protecting the chemical storage tanks.
"Brothers, don't let them rush through our defense lines!"
"Hold your position and never give up!"
"yes!"
"clear!"
The soldiers were as excited as if they were on stimulants.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Everywhere is fire, and everywhere is water.
The problem is that relying solely on water, even with artificial rainfall and high-pressure water cannons, cannot completely extinguish the fire.
"Fire extinguisher!"
"Fire extinguisher!"
Several fire chiefs directed their team members to sprinkle fire extinguishing agents on the flames.
"Brothers, we can't continue like this. We must use encirclement to defeat them one by one and eliminate them completely."
"Can!"
"Dongcheng District fire fighters are in charge of the east area!"
"Copy that!" The firefighter immediately turned east.
"I, Xicheng District, are responsible for the west area!"
"Then I, Houhai District, will be responsible for the central area!"
"The escort team is responsible for the south and north areas!"
"Then my guard team will be responsible for transporting fire-extinguishing supplies!"
Several captains quickly discussed a plan and began to implement it.
"Brothers, fight it!"
"Yes, it must be taken down for the sake of the people and the family."
…
Nine o'clock in the morning.
At this time, five hours had passed since the first explosion.
The fire in the oil tank area is basically under control, but it is not yet under control in the chemical storage area, and there are even signs of getting worse.
Fang Yuan left the oil tank area at some point. She found a drone from her car and started taking pictures of the chemical storage area.
Out of journalistic instinct, she first wanted to know what was going on.
Secondly, she also wanted the world to see how firefighters go deep into the tiger's den and save citizens regardless of their lives.
Even as a future documentary, it is of great significance.
"Buzz!"
The drone flew into the sky and hovered high.
In order to shoot safely, the drone flew at a very high altitude, so the clarity was somewhat affected, but the appearance of everyone could still be seen.
Five hours later, Houhai District became a ghost town, and all residents were moved to safe areas.
They were all hoping and praying that there wouldn't be an explosion.
Although they didn't know exactly what was going to happen, judging from the distance and number of people retreating, many people realized the seriousness of the matter.
"What do you think happened to make us retreat so far?"
"Oh, I don't know either. I heard that all the residents in Houhai District have been evacuated."
"Yes, the roads are blocked. It looks like the situation is serious. I wonder what will happen?"
"How about we leave? Yancheng is too dangerous. We should go to other provinces and cities to avoid the limelight for the time being."
"That's right. Yancheng is too dangerous. I heard that they only retreated one or two kilometers at the beginning, but now they have retreated dozens of kilometers..."
"I mean, let's go, let's go, come back when everything is fine."
The citizens talked about it one after another, some saying good things and some saying bad things. Most people were still very worried, and some even wanted to escape from Yancheng and go out to avoid the limelight.
…
On the high platform.
Gu Jingze counted the circles in his mouth, his eyes full of determination.
"Five thousand eight!"
"Brothers, hold on a little longer, there are only two hundred laps left."
"Don't worry, sir, we can persist!"
Duan Feng and Qian Cheng answered.
"Five thousand eight hundred and thirty."
"Five thousand eight hundred and forty."
"..."
When the three of them reached 5,900, something unexpected happened.
The high platform fell down without any warning.
"not good!"
"Sir, Duan Feng, be careful!" Qian Cheng shouted hurriedly.
"Squeak...squeak..."
The high platform is tilting more and more, and it will fall soon if it is not handled in time.
Once the high platform fell, the three of them had no point of strength and could not turn the valve at all.
Just as I was about to successfully tighten the valve, something went wrong again.
"Squeak!"
"Squeak!"
Gu Jingze immediately looked at his feet, without any focus at all.
what to do?
Do you want to let yourself give up in vain?
Absolutely impossible.
There are less than two hundred turns left to completely shut down the oil pipeline. If...
There is no if.
Gu Jingze told himself that he immediately threw out the rope, tied one end around his waist, and wrapped the other end around the iron frame that fixed the valve.
"Duan Feng, Qian Cheng, it's up to me."
The two of them heard Gu Jingze's reminder, looked sideways, and then imitated his method to fasten the rope.
"Don't give up, there are only 160 laps left!" Gu Jingze encouraged the two of them.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Just as the three people were fixed, the high platform suddenly collapsed, and the three people were suspended more than fifty meters in the air.
