Chapter 209 Unexpected Gains
Chapter 209 Unexpected Harvest
Zhao Jianhui also knew the pressure on him. If he couldn't get up from the underground, this would be a big deal. A disaster occurred in the coal mine, and a deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee died in the rescue. Damn it, why can't I think of something good? . He grabbed the safety helmet and miner's lamp handed over by a miner next to him, and walked towards the wellhead without looking back.
Fortunately, this was only a collapse in a small area underground, and the underground ventilation, electricity, communication and drainage systems were still normal, which provided favorable conditions for investigating the accident site.
Xinglong Coal Mine is a small and medium-sized mine owned by a private enterprise. Workers go down the mine and the coal collected goes through the same wellhead. The shaft with a depth of more than 300 meters looks like a deep black hole from above, with steaming smoke constantly rising upwards.
Sitting in a simple hanging basket made of welded steel plates, Zhao Jianhui knew as the winch started. His life has now been completely handed over to the wire rope tied to the hanging basket. As the depth of descent continues to increase, from the small hole above the spider plant, the wellhead becomes only the size of a washbasin. The sun shines through the thick darkness, forming circles of colorful rainbows on the spider plant. The scene is really of great beauty.
However, no one inside the Chlorophytum would be excited and happy about this fantastic beauty. Each of them felt very heavy, not only worried about the lives of the trapped people, but also worried about their dangerous journey after going down the well.
Hearing the sound of water, the gondola stopped at the bottom of the well. With the light shining in his hand, facing the exit of the gondola, there was a deep and moist horizontal alleyway. The lights in the alleyway emitted a dim yellow light. Light.
Zhao Jianhui and Li Nian led eight team members out of the hanging basket.
After listening carefully, I found that far away in the tunnel, the coal wall and roof were still creaking and squeaking. This showed that deep in the tunnel, the impact of roof collapse had not yet passed, and the risk of rescue was still very high.
Li Nian held the blueprint in his hand, illuminated it with a miner's lamp, and stepped ahead of Zhao Jianhui into the darkness of an unknown future. Zhao Jianhui's heart warmed slightly, and he turned around and said: "Keep a distance of ten meters between everyone, and follow closely so as not to fall behind." As he said this, he strode forward without any hesitation.
In the face of danger, human instinct is to retreat. However, when faced with real danger, oil can inspire people's fighting spirit and courage. Li Nian is probably like this now.
I walked forward for more than a hundred meters, one step at a time, one step at a time, and the water on the ground had already soaked through the shoes on my feet. Although there was a strong smell of smoke in my nose, my breathing was smooth and I didn't feel suffocated. This made Zhao Jianhui feel a little relieved. If there was a lack of oxygen inside, the situation would be bad.
Zhao Jianhui, who was walking under the mine, did not know that at this time, Tao Zhenguo, Secretary of the Universiade City Party Committee, and Ou Changchun, Mayor of Dayun City, had already rushed to the mine with all members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee who were at home. Wenyuan County Party Committee Secretary Liu Yuan, County Magistrate Cao Guangli and others also rushed to the scene. Also arriving at the same time were the Dayun City Safety Supervision Bureau, Coal Management Bureau, Mine Rescue Brigade, Dayun City People's Hospital, and Dayun City Workers Nearly a hundred ambulance personnel from the hospital have also assembled at the mine and are on standby.
The leader of the mine rescue command team is personally served as the leader of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Tao Zhenguo, and the deputy team leader Ou Changchun and other municipal committee members. The commander-in-chief of the headquarters is Ma Dong, director of the Work Safety Bureau, and the deputy commander-in-chief is actually Zhao Jianhui, who has gone deep into the mine.
When Secretary Tao heard the news that Zhao Jianhui went down the well, his face looked like black coal, and the muscles on his face trembled for more than ten minutes before he personally nominated Zhao Jianhui as the deputy commander-in-chief of the rescue.
Of course, no member of the Standing Committee had any different opinions on the official he appointed at this time. In fact, when those people heard that the newly arrived deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee had personally gone down the well, some were impressed, while others snorted secretly: "It's just adding to the chaos. What can he do down there?"
However, after an hour and a half, when they saw Zhao Jianhui coming up from the well with a gray face, many people still secretly praised him. Dare to go down at this time, which represents a kind of courage.
Then, what was even more surprising was that the person who reported the underground situation was not the technician who followed him down the mine, but Zhao Jianhui. Listening to his explanation while pointing at the map, Ma Dong, the commander-in-chief, began to change his expression, and then several captains of the mine rescue team began to nod their heads.
"According to my on-site inspection, some of the miners working underground today are trapped in this location, which is the No. 3 operating area marked on the map. This means that our rescuers must rush here now. Location"
His finger pointed at the direction of Area 3: "You must enter here to find the trapped miners. There are two routes to enter here, so I formulated two rescue plans based on this situation."
He stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips. He hadn't had a sip of water for two hours.
"The first plan: Carry out blasting and excavation in the second and third underground tunnels closest to the area where the trapped people are trapped, that is, 425 meters away from the second tunnel, and use the fastest speed to reach the area where the miners are trapped. Through it, you can test it first and open a small hole for ventilation and oxygen supply. If there is a response, send the food immediately according to the No. 2 and 3 lanes. It is estimated that day and night excavation will take 22 hours. After the roof collapse is initially stabilized, maintain the collapsed tunnel and clean up the coal rocks that have fallen and blocked the No. 3 tunnel and are close to the trapped area. The coal stone is about 500 cubic meters, and based on the transportation volume of Xinglong Coal Mine, it takes about 38 hours. "
Zhao Jianhui pointed at the drawings and looked at the city leaders present with some hesitation: "It's just that this is just a calculation I made based on what I saw. If there are any accidents during the cleanup work, then we have to increase or decrease the number of cleanups." When the time comes, I personally prefer to adopt the first option. Of course, it is up to the leader to decide which option to adopt.”
Secretary Tao stared at Zhao Jianhui with sharp eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure that the first option is feasible? Are you sure that it really only takes 22 hours?"
Several municipal party committee leaders standing next to him recognized Secretary Tao's words and almost laughed out loud from the bottom of their hearts. I really don’t know how high the sky is and I cannot say that all the people standing here are experts, but the main economic pillar of Dayun City is coal mines. Which of these people has not been dealing with coal mines for longer than you? I went down and took a look and you made two plans. Who do you think you are?
Alas, I am still too young to be humble. Look, is Old Tao angry?
"What I can confirm is that the first option can save more than ten hours of time compared to the second option. In rescue work, time is life." Zhao Jianhui licked his lips and thought to himself, if this is what my soldiers dig, The trenches, I said it only took eighteen hours, and they had to finish it for me before the seventeenth hour and sixty minutes. But these are local rescue teams. Who knows how well they do their jobs? Secretary Tao, if you don’t agree with my plan, why are you setting me on fire?
"Every effort must be made to seize the time to search and rescue the trapped miners, and at the same time, we must strictly prevent the occurrence of secondary accidents, and we must ensure the safety of search and rescue personnel; on the premise of ensuring safe rescue, maintain the order of the coal mine ground and organize various rescue operations; It is necessary to learn from the lessons of this accident and carry out investigation of hidden production safety hazards throughout the city. , strengthen the supervision of production safety. The commander and deputy commander of your headquarters will decide which plan to adopt, and implement it as soon as possible. I only have one request, which is to ensure the safety of rescuers and ensure the smooth rescue of many underground miners. Come to the rescue. You do the work, and I will take on any responsibility."
After Lao Tao said this, his glasses almost fell to the ground. What's wrong with this old Tao? If you were clearly dissatisfied with Zhao Jianhui just now, why should you take responsibility for him now? Let the chief and deputy commanders of the headquarters make plans? Once this plan is proven to be wrong, the commander-in-chief will bear greater responsibility. Although this guy was named deputy commander-in-chief, Ma Dong will bear the brunt of the investigation.
However, just when everyone looked at Ma Dong, Ma Dong stood up straight and said loudly: "Secretary Tao, there is no need to discuss any more. I think the two plans designated by Comrade Zhao Jianhui are already very comprehensive. I It means focusing on the implementation of the first plan, but in order to ensure the implementation of the rescue work, the second plan is also launched at the same time.”
Zhao Jianhui looked at Ma Dong, and both of them looked at Tao Zhenguo.
Tao Zhenguo pondered for a moment and said firmly: "Then what are you waiting for? What are you, the commander-in-chief and the deputy commander-in-chief, looking at me for?"
Ma Dong looked at Zhao Jianhui, and Zhao Jianhui said to himself: What are you looking at me for? Ah...when did I become the deputy rescue commander? Damn, this is really a rush. Gritting his teeth: "That's it, the two plans will be carried out at the same time, and the first plan will be promoted as the focus."
Before Zhao Jianhui's voice fell, Ma Dong continued: "Captain Li, arrange for your mine rescue team to be divided into four teams and take turns to work. We must open the tunnel and rescue the trapped people within 22 hours."
As his orders were issued one after another, the intense rescue work officially began.
The rescue work was carried out in an intense and orderly manner. Everyone ate lunch and breakfast next to the mine.
In the afternoon, State Council Member Zhang Changjiang visited Xinglong Coal Mine in person to direct the rescue work. After listening to the report from the rescue headquarters, he fully affirmed the timely rescue by the provincial and municipal party committees and governments at the three levels, and highly praised the achievements made in the rescue. He asked all personnel involved in the rescue to overcome fatigue, carry forward the spirit of continuous fighting, and make persistent efforts to open the rescue channel as early as possible and rescue the trapped miners one minute early so that they can reunite with their families as soon as possible.
At the end of his speech, Committee Member Zhang clasped his hands and said: "Comrades, I will not leave Dayun City for a day until the rescue work is over. I entrust the safety and lives of the underground miners to everyone."
What Zhao Jianhui did not expect was that the Xinglong Mine disaster would alarm national leaders. However, at that time, he was still drilling holes underground and firing off cannons.
At 6:32 pm, when the thirty-seven miners trapped underground were successfully brought out of the ground, thunderous applause erupted from the edge of the mine.
As the rescue work was successfully completed, Zhao Jianhui, as the first official to rush to Xinglong Mine and the first leader to personally go down the mine to participate in the rescue, appeared in newspapers and television with the news of the rescue.
The times need heroes, and Hedong Province and Dayun City need cadres to be role models to eliminate the impact of this incident. Therefore, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to. The name Zhao Jianhui entered thousands of households through the radio waves.
