"The consequences will be that Yanjing may turn into a second-tier city. If it cannot be extinguished in time, the toxic gas and haze generated will bring disaster to the entire Yanjing."
"This is not the most important thing. Have you seen this?" Liu Chi swiped the phone screen downwards and said, "There is a chemical factory to the east of the refinery."
"That's the most critical thing. Although I don't know what's in the chemical plant, but normally, the chemical plants supporting the refinery will have a large amount of benzene, xylene, and hydrides."
Liu Chi saw Ye Yuxin's puzzled eyes and explained: "Benzene is a Class A fire-hazardous chemical that can paralyze the human central nervous system. Once a large amount of hydride is inhaled, it will cause death within a few minutes."
"You will faint without warning and stop breathing within 15 minutes!"
"..." Ye Yuxin was shocked.
"If there is an explosion in the chemical tank farm, it will be a big deal." Liu Chi felt a chill running down his spine.
"If a 100,000 cubic meter oil storage tank explodes, other oil storage tanks close to it will also explode one after another. Then in the chemical factory to the east, as long as one tank explodes, all the guys who are putting out the fire on site will be poisoned and die.
"Once the poisonous gas reaches downtown TJ, the entire city may become a dead city."
"Yanjing probably also..."
"In other words, the best way is to prevent the crude oil tank from exploding. This is the best way and the only way, because an explosion will cause a chain reaction." Liu Chi put down his phone feebly.
"......"silence.
"!!!"
"I believe they will understand the seriousness of the matter, and I believe they can turn the crisis around." Ye Yuxin held Liu Chi's hand tightly and comforted.
"Yeah!" Liu Chi took a deep breath.
Two hours later, the two returned to Yanjing.
"I'm going to take a shower first." Ye Yuxin put down her bag and opened the clothes hanger while saying.
"Okay, you go ahead." Liu Chi nodded and sat down on the bed.
Watching Ye Yuxin leave, Liu Chi picked up his phone and flipped through the news about the Haibin Oil Refinery.
...
Seaside Refinery.
"Commander-in-Chief, the fire-fighting foam is in urgent need." A gray-faced uncle whose face could not be seen rushed into the green tent with a bang.
"A batch will be delivered in ten minutes." A tall, thin man in his late 60s, with white hair already growing on his head, did not look back, looking at the real-time fire area on the big screen with a sad face.
"Old Li, I'm here. All the supplies have been delivered to the intersection. You can ask someone to take command." Qin Caihui, who was tired of traveling, pushed open the tent and walked in. He looked at Li An who was thinking of a solution and said.
"Caihui, thank you for your hard work. Please bring it in person. You wait a moment, and I will make arrangements first."
"Okay, brothers who are driving, you can also ask them to help." Now is not the time to reminisce about old times, Qin Caihui said urgently.
"Thank you!" Li An hurriedly walked out of the tent.
Qin Caihui also followed and walked out.
"Team 5, go to the intersection outside immediately to unload the supplies and deliver them to each team as quickly as possible. Hurry! If there is not enough manpower, ask the brothers who are driving to help." After Li An rushed out of the tent, he was worried about Zai Gan.
The fifth detachment on standby yelled.
"yes."
"Brothers, follow me, hurry up." Zhang Hong, captain of the fifth squadron, waved his hand, released his legs and rushed out.
"Wow..." 14 people followed Zhang Hong and ran out quickly.
I watched my brothers put out the fire one by one desperately, while I was busy on the sidelines, as a mobile team to deal with emergencies.
One by one, they wrote bloody letters asking for a fight.
Now that I finally had something to do, I rushed out as if I had been given a shot of blood.
"Old Li, is there anything I can do to help?" Qin Caihui said, looking at the flames soaring into the sky three hundred meters away, and took a breath.
"Or are there any difficulties?"
"Commander-in-Chief, if you can't turn off the two valves of the A01 tank, it will be difficult to put out the fire. Now the fire has a tendency to increase." After a burst of rustling, the intercom in Lao Li's hand came out with a voice.
A string of anxious voices.
"Our first team has been flushing water from the A01 tank for three hours. There is nothing we can do if this continues."
"The supplies will be delivered immediately. Stay with me and don't let the fire get bigger." Li An shouted with a walkie-talkie: "Otherwise, you know what the consequences will be."
"yes!"
The scene of the first detachment.
"Captain, what should I do? Is there any good solution at the command post?"
"Hold on tight."
"If this big thing explodes and causes a chain reaction, none of us can get out alive, especially the chemical tank area guarded by the third team, if..."
"No ifs..."
"The only thing we can do is to stay here and buy time for the command center to come up with a solution. Go check over the water supply area to see if there is any problem. Make sure to keep the water supply flowing."
"Backup water supply equipment is always ready."
"Yes!" A little brother ran out with a "whoosh".
"..."
"Commander Li, Comrade Liu Aimin is here."
"Hello, Mr. Li." Hearing this, Li An turned his head to greet Li Aimin, who was wearing a suit and walked in from outside the tent.
"Commander Li, how are you? Are there any difficulties?" Li Aimin asked, looking at the fire map on the big screen.
"Almost three hours have passed now. The best we can do is suppress the fire temporarily. If there is no good way, but as time goes by, the danger will become greater and greater."
"The only way to put out the fire is to close the two valves of the A01 tank."
"Why can't you turn it off?" Li Aimin frowned.
"The two valves are in the middle of the fire area. The temperature is as high as 3/400 degrees. No one can get close to it. Moreover, the electric doors of the two valves have been burned out, so we can only rely on manual labor."
"But artificial..." Li An finally shook his head helplessly.
"What, are you having trouble?" Li Aimin asked.
"It takes 80,000 manual turns to close the valve. How can it be done at a high temperature of 3/400 degrees?"
"..." Li Aimin didn't understand and knew how difficult this matter was, so he fell silent.
"Even if it turns twice in one second, it will take at least 11 hours!"
"!!!"
"Can't we extinguish the one at the valve?"
"If we can, we can put out all the fires." Li An shook his head with a wry smile: "Humans are not machines, how can we complete it? Now we are stuck here."
"Have you seen this tongue of flame?" Li An came to the big screen, switched the screen a few times, pointed to the middle and said: "This tongue of flame is the crude oil sprayed from the tank channel. The length of the entire tongue of flame is more than 30 meters. The tongue of flame is more than 30 meters long."
Above is the valve."
"What if we use robots?" Li Aimin asked whimsically.
