Chapter 454: The bridge breaks in the snow and the bus falls into the river
There have been many civil aviation disasters caused by micro-downs and thunderstorms in the past few decades. Those who fly the plane have learned about these typical air crashes and are well aware of the dangers of various weather.
In general, almost 90% of the air crashes are related to weather, and most of the dangers Li Zhan himself encountered are related to weather.
This is why the meteorological department is important.
Li Zhan had never encountered a slight downstorm. He thought he might have encountered this time, but he landed safely on the South 1993 flight he was on safely on Runway 27 of Short Sand Honghua Airport.
After quickly leaving the arrival port, Li Zhan found that it was very convenient to take civil aviation without weapons and did not require cumbersome relevant procedures.
The security area sent a captain to bring a Lao Badao with the words "Security Picked" at the arrival entrance for more than an hour. When Li Zhan came out, he saw Lao Badao with a license plate on the security area and parked directly on the side of the road. The traffic police patrol car with the lights flashed was not far away. The traffic police on duty didn't even look at Lao Badao. It was too domineering and couldn't afford to offend him.
After confirming that the license plate number was correct, Li Zhan went straight forward to show his ID, exchanged a few greetings with the captain who was carrying the car, and then got on the car. The old domineering and roared out, and the driver actually turned on the red and blue police lights on the center net and occasionally pressed a few high-frequency speakers that only military and police vehicles could use.
Always domineering.
Shortsha is also considered a military important place. The famous National University of Science and Technology is here. In history, this place was a place where military strategists must compete for. The army and air force have many institutions stationed here. The military vehicles passing by the airport are not young and old. Therefore, if you don’t get the right seat, you will really get the wrong person and get on the wrong car.
Captain Bai, the staff officer of the Shortsha Security District Command, received the order to send the person to Zhongnan Station before 5 pm this afternoon. When he received the person, he was 12:05 pm. If it was usually five hours, it would be enough. Turn directly from the airport expressway to the Beijing-Zhu Expressway and run 300 kilometers before turning onto the provincial highway. The mountain road was 70 to 80 and 80 to reach Zhongnan Station.
However, the weather is very bad today, so Captain Bai asked the driver to be as fast as possible when the road conditions are good. Once he gets off the highway, the time spent on the road will increase sharply.
Of course, you can ask your superiors for instructions to postpone the registration time, but neither Li Zhan nor Captain Bai considered it unless force majeure factors arise.
Lao Badao was driving at lightning speed on the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway. On the straight section of the road, the driver decisively pulled the highway at 150 kilometers per hour. The police lights of the center network flashed occasionally and sounded at high frequency. Local vehicles along the way avoided them, just like seeing ghosts. In some places, the drivers of vehicles cursed, "It's great to be a soldier, it's a stinking sound." In some places, the drivers of vehicles and the co-pilot said, "Eighty-mostly there is any emergency military service."
Just ran wildly in understanding and not understanding, and plunged into the ice and snow at a distance of twelve kilometers from the established expressway entrance.
“There is a traffic jam.”
The driver reported to Captain Bai, the co-pilot, that as an old driver, the vehicle was forced to stop again after several short congestions of varying degrees. The driver was very clear that he had encountered a large congestion.
"Going to the emergency lane." Captain Bai did not hesitate and pointed his hand at the "third lane".
As soon as the driver called the steering wheel, he drove into the emergency lane, and ran forward, but before he drove two kilometers, the emergency lane was blocked. There was a car in front of him, so he drove into the emergency lane when he was impatient, so the emergency lane was also blocked.
Captain Bai looked at the time and decisively activated the sending machine and turned on the loudspeaker: "Say axxxx, get out of here! The car in front is away! The vehicle in the emergency lane leaves immediately!"
He called out without any politeness, and finally he scolded him angrily, and he slowly pushed forward with scolding. Some of the more expensive cars were not sure whether the sound insulation was too good or the driver was a little cool. After shouting for a long time, they didn't move. The driver next to him reluctantly moved aside after reminding him. Some of the cheaper cars pretended to be inaudible. Captain Bai was so angry that he got out of the car and went straight to scold and drive him away. He moved forward with such difficulty.
Li Zhan’s attention was on the weather.
Ice and snow rain, the ground is frozen, snow is drifting in the sky, and it is raining. This strange weather makes Li Zhan worry. It is really snow and rain, which means that the temperature in the sky changes very quickly, and there is a lot of water accumulated in the cumulonimbus clouds, and it can't wait to turn into ice during the landing process.
Looking out, the mountains you can see clearly are gone, and instead are white and gray, with white and gray nearby, and the colors of the world are much more monotonous.
Li Zhan couldn't help but remember the ice and snow disaster in 2008. He got from the training base in the north to the Second Division of Xi County. The civil aviation department announced that the southern flight was delayed on a large scale. At first, many people didn't take it seriously. Isn't it just that the snow is heavier, the rain is no big deal. It has been like this in recent years. However, when trains in many places in the south began to stop, and a large number of passengers returning home to celebrate the Spring Festival were stranded in many train stations led by Guangzhou Station, people realized that there was a disaster. Tens of millions of people were forced to cancel their plans to go home for the New Year during the Spring Festival that year.
The harm caused by rain, snow and freezing disasters is far more than these. Freight vehicles running on the highway day and night, and returning vehicles are trapped on the highway for several days, which is the biggest crisis in the history of the highway.
Li Zhan was very worried that the ice and snow disaster in 2008 would reappear.
After finally moving to the expressway entrance, Captain Bai breathed a sigh of relief and soon after passing the toll station, it was blocked again. It happened to be a national highway with farmland and forests on both sides. There were no other intersections except for several mechanized ploughing road intersections, but you didn’t know where to lead to the mechanized ploughing road intersections, so the more vehicles were blocked.
Captain Bai said, "Major Li wait for a moment, I'll go see what's going on. Xiao Zhang, try to drive forward."
As he said that, he got out of the car and took the coat and flashlight from the back trunk and walked forward. Li Zhan put down the window glass, and a biting cold wind poured in, and the drizzle and slight snow hit the bone-black pain on his face. It was obvious that Captain Bai's approach to bringing a military coat was extremely correct. Looking at the visibility, the drizzle and slight snow and some fog were basically unaware of it fifty meters away. Not only was it impossible to see clearly without a flashlight, but it was also very dangerous.
He is a very experienced captain and staff officer.
This section of the national highway is four-lane in both directions, but it has been blocked at this time. Many large trucks occupy two lanes. It is difficult for some small cars to squeeze through the curb, but many people are still trying. Slowly, everyone received a warning message for bad weather and knew that they had encountered disaster weather. The best way is of course to get to the destination as soon as possible. No matter how bad it is, they should find a place to stay and park and avoid the limelight. It is difficult to withstand such cold weather without food or drink. It is definitely not a joke to freeze people to death.
Li Zhan asked the driver for a flashlight and got out of the car and followed Captain Bai. When he went to Hanzhong, he did not bring cold clothes. At this time, he only wore a jacket and could clearly feel the biting cold. Walking forward, he gradually heard noises, and Captain Bai ran back soon. Mobile::
"Major, the bridge in front collapsed, and a bus overturned into the river." Captain Bai reported panting.
Li Zhan immediately said, "Call the police now! You organize other drivers to help save people! Call Xiao Zhang over and help!"
"Yes!" Captain Bai immediately executed.
When a medium-sized bus carrying 31 passengers passed a river bridge of more than 100 meters, the side of the river bridge suddenly collapsed to the south. The medium-sized bus suddenly rolled to the right and fell into the river. This was the main reason for the congestion, and the 31 passengers were in danger.
While running away from the scene, Li Zhan racked his brains to recall whether there were military units recently. He was not familiar with the distribution of units outside the Air Force, but because of the special nature of the service troops, he remembered the specific locations of most Air Force units.
It is only more than 80 kilometers away from Zhongnan Station, and there must be air force units around it. When his eyes swept over a heavy dump truck, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a engineering battalion more than ten kilometers away. He immediately called Zhongnan Station and asked them to contact us as soon as possible.
He quickly entered the scene to check the situation after doing this.
The visibility became lower and lower. I vaguely saw a medium-sized bus leaping across the river on the left side facing upwards. Fortunately, it was a shallow river with rocks cushioned. Most of the medium-sized buses were on the water. The place where the bus overturned was about ten meters away from the road, which formed a great obstacle to the rescue work.
Before Li Zhan arrived, more than a dozen drivers were trying to save people. Some passengers who climbed out of the car were pulled up by them with thick cables. Everyone asked in a mess about the situation and discussed how to rescue them.
Time is life. After Li Zhan greeted the driver of a cheetah Black King Kong, he jumped onto the engine cover and lit up a flashlight and shouted loudly: "Please be quiet! Please be quiet! I am a major of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force! Please come and help! Listen to my command together! Those who are party members, please come to me first! Other comrades are in a team!"
After he repeated the shouts several times, a temporary rescue team of dozens of people was formed.
Li Zhan rushed to the team and said loudly, "Party members, please take a step forward!"
More than a dozen men of different ages stepped forward. At this time, Captain Bai happened to come over and stood there to salute Li Zhan to report the situation, which greatly increased Li Zhan's prestige.
Li Zhan quickly assigned the task, "Party members formed a vanguard team and followed me to go down the river to save people! Captain Bai is in charge of helping us! Xiao Zhang! Clean up the cars around you and try to free up the space. No vehicles can stay on the bridge deck!"
With a few instructions, the originally messy scene disappeared, replaced by a tense and orderly rescue operation. The temporary party member vanguard, led by Li Zhan, resolutely went to the river to save people. Li Zhan took the lead and walked into the river with a thick hemp rope provided by the truck driver at his waist. When he stepped into the river, his legs seemed to be lost.
His scalp was numb and he turned around and shouted: "Don't come down first! The river is very cold!"
Chapter completed!
