Thinking of these, he no longer felt blame but instead took a deep breath and said,
"You old comrades need to teach them. An accident this big must become a learning experience; it’s all invaluable."
As he spoke, he noticed Song Lin and Han Yong coming over with a hose divider and commanded,
"One gun each! One come behind me, and the other on the opposite side! Notify Squad Leader Fang, no need for full water pressure, conserve the water as much as possible! Full spray to cover the vehicle! Have Jiang Jun get Car 3 and Car 1’s water supply hoses ready for use any time!"
"Yes!"
Excited to the point of ecstasy at being able to handle a hose, Song Lin and Han Yong hurried off.
Wang Peng came over with some items, and Fang Huai took the plastic bag, quickly pulled out his clothes, and the oil in the tank began to spurt out wildly. But in less than five seconds, Fang Huai had understood the shape of the oil leak, quickly wrapped the clothing in the plastic bag, and stuffed it back in.
Now, the leaking oil was almost not visible anymore.
It was indeed effective, but as the oil had no outlet and the plastic bag was slippery, it truly needed someone to press down on it firmly.
Wang Peng was about to go back to plug the hole,
but Zhao Jinchen stepped forward, placing his hand on the cloth, and said to Wang Peng, "You go help them with the hose and stand back."
Wang Peng instantly felt a bit helpless and even somewhat wronged.
To him, being at the forefront was what made a first-class soldier.
Fang Huai smiled, picked up a set of mortise and tenon tools he had left on the vehicle, selected a piece of wood slightly thicker than the hole, split off about 25 centimeters, and began to carve with a knife as he explained,
"Mortise and tenon, the basics, we’ve specially taught you all before! This set of wooden tools, in the same way, can be used to plug leaks!
But you need to practice more, learn more!
On-site! When there are no! Conditions, these tools can come in handy!"
His words ebbed and flowed rhythmically with the sharp knife’s carving actions. fгeewebnovёl.com
Soon, the mist from the new recruits’ water guns began to spray over them.
But Fang Huai’s actions remained unaffected and swift.
Although the hole was irregular, it only had a few sides, and the simple mortise and tenon technique that Fang Huai had learned for 10 military points was not wasted. The fitting was so precise that even wood to wood could align perfectly, and with his extraordinary memory, dealing with this hole was a piece of cake.
An irregular cylinder was carved out in about three minutes, the front sharp, the middle round, and only the back half matched the hole.
This skill might seem simple, but to those watching, it appeared almost magical.
Even the Pingba Squadron members bringing the inflation valves stopped and silently watched him carve the wood.
No one dared to speak, all worried that the wood wouldn’t fit.
But Fang Huai confidently moved to the edge of the hole, pulled Zhao Jinchen’s hand away, and pointing to a box of sealing agent nearby, ordered,
"Squad Leader Zhao, get that ready!"
"Alright, alright, move quickly, and if it doesn’t work, use the clothing to plug it again! If this oil sprays out, it’ll be terrible!"
Zhao Jinchen moved aside, and Fang Huai immediately let go of the cloth.
Then he aimed the piece of wood at the hole and inserted it.
Everyone stared in disbelief.
F*ck, witnessing a miracle here!
Holy shit, it’s not leaking!
"Wooden mallet to me!"
With a shout from Fang Huai, Cao Yi immediately handed over a wooden mallet.
With a few light taps, the wood was firmly in place.
"Hurry up with the leak-sealing agent!"
"I’m looking! I’m looking!"
Zhao Jinchen had not expected the leak to be plugged so simply and hurriedly filled the metal sealant into the injection gun.
"What size should the injection valve use?"
Fang Huai glanced and barked, "The smallest one! Just a tiny crack left! Use a cloth to wipe the diesel clean around it, and use super glue to glue the wood’s edge for me!"
"Here it comes, here it comes!"
Zhao Jinchen, handling the injection gun, quickly got the super glue, sprayed a tight circle around the edge of the wood, and once it set, Fang Huai finally let go.
The oil, now not a drop was leaking.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Yi immediately picked up the two-way radio to report, "Regimental commander, regimental commander, the oil leak has been plugged!"
Ye Jiahong stepped forward and patted Fang Huai heavily on the shoulder, "Damn, still our Captain Fang, eh! Great skills!"
Fang Huai’s face showed no ripple, and he looked around, continuing to give orders around the tanker truck:
"Hu Hongzhi, take the foam gun and flush away the oil on the surrounding ground!"
Saying so, he adjusted Song Lin’s water gun from spray to stream and instructed,
"Cool down the fuel tank! If the sun comes out later, cool it down every 10 minutes. Save some water. When the crane arrives, we’ll need the water gun for cover to guard against friction sparks!
Instructor Cao, have someone check where the driver is, contact their company. It would be best if they could send another truck, to transfer the oil! And have them pump out the oil from the life raft too. Diesel contains a lot of pollutants; we can’t deal with so much diesel!
Squad Leader Zhao, keep an eye on the tanker truck for me, I’m going to check out the other side!"
With a series of arrangements from Fang Huai and a glance up at the sky, he took a long breath and headed towards the second scene.
Inside, he also felt a wave of relief.
The pile-up had been stopped, the tanker truck was temporarily stable, and the rest of the accident rescue was just a matter of time.
The cold weather that Fang Huai had been worried about unexpectedly became a natural cooling agent for the tanker and the diesel. Otherwise, with such a long delay before they arrived on scene today, a fire might have already started.
A faint smile appeared on Fang Huai’s face, which was captured by the promotional assistant from the Full Attendance Command, who was near him. Included in the shot was the perilous tanker truck.
Making it look effortless!
This was the best photo to showcase our Detachment’s firefighting soldiers!
