Chapter 110 Operation Commander(1/2)
Otto did not expect Gu Ji to be so careful in investigating the incident.
Few officers would read through a company's factory technical manual just because of a bombing raid.
The fire chief is a tall man in his forties.
After listening to Gu Ji's analysis, he turned to the deputy mayor and several leaders, "Sir, if everything is as the sergeant said, this accident disaster may not be so easy to control. We need to understand the control system in detail.
The gas inventory of the chlorine plant, in case..."
"What if?"
Otto asked immediately.
Gu Ji spoke up on behalf of the fire chief.
"If the amount of gas is too large and the accident cannot be controlled, the poisonous gas will spread to the entire city and even radiate to the surrounding areas, which will trigger a horrific regional disaster!"
Regional level...
Hearing these three words, Otto was shocked, and the two inspector generals beside him broke into cold sweat and even breathed heavily.
If it really turns out to be like that, they will not only face punishment from the SS, but the entire family will become sinners in Hans's history and be despised.
Otto said seriously and nervously:
"Where is the person in charge of the production base? Where is he now?"
"I arranged for people to look for it before, but there is still no news..."
While Gu Ji was answering questions, several workers and security guards were running towards the door in a panic in the factory park not far away.
He vaguely remembered that several people seemed to be following Leer, and were responsible for cutting off the power and gas in the factory, so he stopped one of them.
"Where are the Leer people? Have you found Göring? Why did the gas suddenly erupt?"
"Ahem...Ge, manager Goring is not in the base!"
The worker was shaking all over, coughing with his mouth half open, and his voice was extremely hoarse. It sounded like a knife splitting his chest. "We don't know the specific cause of the leak. It may be that the high temperature caused the pressure in the gas pipeline to increase and expand. Chief Leer wanted to prevent the gas from going further."
If there is a leak, let us escape first and turn on the sprinkler equipment ourselves..."
"What!?"
Gu Ji's eyes sharpened.
When such a serious production accident occurred, Goering, the person in charge of the production base, was not at the scene.
"Deputy Mayor, please immediately arrange for the surrounding people to evacuate to one kilometer away. The poisonous gas will soon settle to the ground, and organize the police and medical systems to maintain order and safety in the city. A large-scale poisonous gas leak will soon cause trouble throughout the city.
panic;"
"Second, find Göring as soon as possible, get the gas inventory data of the chlorine production plant, as well as the factory building layout structure diagram, the number of workers on duty that day, find out the accident risk level, the number of trapped people, gather all hospitals in the town, and free up hospital beds
, prepare to treat the injured in the accident;”
"Third, contact the chemical defense force and fire brigade to carry out large-scale water washing and disinfection on the ground to control the spread of poisonous gas, contact the National Defense Air Force transport aircraft to prepare aerial water sprinkling support, and dispatch a chemical reconnaissance team to detect chlorine and hydrogen chloride in the air in the safe area every five minutes
content.”
Put down these three sentences.
Otto and the defense garrison commander both had shocked expressions in their eyes.
One of them is one of the top heads of government in a town with hundreds of thousands of people, and the other is the top commander of an army of thousands of people. Naturally, they know the steps and methods to deal with large-scale crises.
But there are too few people like Gu Ji who can think calmly and quickly make defensive solutions despite the intense pace of rescuing people, solving stampedes, and responding to government inquiries one after another.
However, this plan is clearly organized and has clear actions: "prevention, control, confirmation, and resolution" in three steps. It even takes into account the secondary crime crisis that may arise when an incident occurs.
From front-line detailed command to macro-overall dispatch and control.
This is simply not something a sergeant can do.
On the contrary, it is the experience and decision-making that only a commander who has experienced hundreds of battles and experienced several thousands-man-level battles or more can possess.
Gu Ji turned to the fire brigade and borrowed a gas mask, "Here are some experienced people from the fire brigade. Follow me into the factory to save people!"
Unexpectedly, Luca dragged Eugen over at this time.
"Herman, let's go with you to save Leer!"
"Chlorine gas is already settling. It's too dangerous in the factory. You..."
"We are a small team, and as the captain, I cannot give up on every member. We retreated from the battlefield together, and we can cooperate better than these firefighters."
Luca insisted on getting their act together.
Looking at the other party's determined eyes, Gu Ji did not hesitate any longer and asked the medical staff to take out a lot of medical bed sheets from the logistics supplies.
"Everyone should soak all the sheets and wrap them around the body, especially the head. Make sure to cover the head, cheeks, neck and other places. Chlorine, hydrogen chloride and sulfuric acid are all highly corrosive substances and are soluble in water, so be sure to cover your head, cheeks, neck and other parts.
Make sure your skin is not exposed."
As Gu Ji spoke, he tried his best to wrap the headscarf around his entire head like Middle Eastern Arabs.
The firefighters looked at the sheets in their hands, you looked at me, I looked at you, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
Otto looked at Gu several times, his expression changed several times, and finally made up his mind and said:
"Now, I appoint Sergeant Herman as the commander-in-chief of on-site operations. Firefighters and police will obey all orders!"
"The Wehrmacht Gendarmerie Regiment in Ludwigshafen also obeys the command of Second Lieutenant Luca and Sergeant Hermann."
The commander of the National Defense Force on the side also spoke.
Oops!
All the surrounding firefighters, military police and other personnel were in an uproar. After less than ten minutes of meeting, the top government and military officials handed over half of the command to a sergeant. It was simply amazing.
But when they saw the Iron Cross medals on Luca and Gu Ji's collars, they chose to obey without hesitation.
"yes!!"
Hearing the thundering response.
Gu Ji was "fully armed" and borrowed a military lighting lamp and a mechanical watch from the police.
"All firefighters will listen to my instructions when the time comes, look at the position of my lights, and be sure not to wander around. Otherwise, under the high concentration of chlorine gas, their vision will be seriously obscured and they will easily lose their way!"
Finally, waving and shouting:
"action!"
With an order, a rescue team consisting of three soldiers and seven firefighters quickly rushed into the factory.
At this time, the explosion cloud in the sky had been mixed with high concentrations of chlorine gas, gradually changing from the original yellow-black color to a thick yellow-green color. The gas also dropped from the initial height of 100 meters to only 20 meters above the ground.
.
It was as if a giant's feet were hanging above his head and stepping down bit by bit.
Theoretically, follow the methods for handling hazardous chemicals.
People have no good means of self-rescue when faced with chlorine gas attacks. Ordinary people rarely come into direct contact with it. In addition to mixing 84 disinfectant with toilet cleaning spirit, which can cause mild chlorine gas poisoning, you can cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel.
Move away from the scene quickly.
The vast majority of remaining chlorine leaks are due to factory accidents.
In response to this kind of crisis, the only effective protection method is gas masks and protective clothing.
However, in the middle of World War II, there were no self-breathing gas masks and professional air-tight multi-layer high-performance chemical protective suits. He could only adopt this crude method and use the water-soluble properties of these chemical gases to temporarily
Create an isolation layer that barely replaces the effect of protective clothing.
As the team continues to deepen.
As everyone got closer and closer to the leak point, the pressure of the surrounding chlorine gas became obviously lower, gradually submerging everyone.
It feels like being in a thick fog, except that the fog is yellow-green. The color itself is very similar to the wizard's evil potion in fantasy movies, not to mention the terror it once caused on the battlefield.
harm.
When there are toxic gases all around you, and if they penetrate through the gaps in your clothes, they will corrode the skin, and even pass through the nasal mucosa, oral mucosa, etc., causing suffocation or blindness, how can you not be nervous and scared?
Especially the deeper you go, the higher the concentration of poisonous gas.
In addition, the lenses of the gas masks are also yellow, so the team members can only see clearly one or two meters in front of them. Looking further away, it is all dim.
"Huh...huh..."
Gu Ji could clearly hear the urgent breathing coming from beside him. He turned around and saw that it was Eugen.
It's not just him.
Some of the younger firefighters were also trembling all over and breathing rapidly, as if they were going to be pulled over at any time.
For them, this visible but intangible "death gas" is sometimes more frightening than the enemy's artillery fire and bullets on the battlefield.
"Ogen, hold your breath! The activated carbon in the external breathing mask has a lifespan. The faster you breathe, the more gas you inhale. Please don't be nervous and pay attention to the light source in my hand!"
In order to stabilize everyone's mentality, Gu Ji hurriedly turned on the military flashlight.
The Hans military flashlight is in the shape of a square box, which looks a bit like a radio, with a light bulb on the upper part of the front.
