Chapter 2170 Rescue Scene

When Qin Feng went downstairs, Li Jianjun hurriedly caught up with him from behind.

"Call Deng Yong, the mayor of Yian County, and ask him to arrange someone to report the situation on the scene to you in real time. Call now. I must be the first to know the developments and casualties on the scene." Qin Feng said to Li Jianjun behind him as he walked down the stairs.

When Qin Feng went downstairs, Wang Jun just drove the car downstairs. This time, Qin Feng did not wait for Li Jianjun who was holding a mobile phone and making a call in the back. He opened the car door and got in. Li Jianjun ran to the front seat while talking on the phone.

"Go to Yian as quickly as possible." Qin Feng said to Wang Jun after getting in the car, and Wang Jun stepped on the accelerator and drove out.

"Comrade Guanlin, please notify the city's emergency management department and medical and health department, and let the city's fire rescue forces and hospitals be ready to set out to Yian for rescue and emergency treatment at any time, and wait for orders at any time." After getting in the car, Qin Feng called Cao Guanlin, the secretary general of the municipal government.

Just as Qin Feng finished his call, Li Jianjun in the front seat also finished his call.

"What did Deng Yong say? What was the situation at the scene? What were the casualties?" Qin Feng asked three questions in one breath.

"County Magistrate Deng has arrived at the scene of the accident and is organizing rescue operations. Ambulances and firefighters have already arrived. County Magistrate Deng said that a tower crane at a construction site suddenly collapsed during normal lifting operations and hit two six-story residential buildings next to the construction site."

"One of the residential buildings was severely damaged, with a corner collapsed, while the other one only suffered relatively minor damage..." Li Jianjun reported Deng Yong's report in detail to Qin Feng.

"What is the current casualty situation?" Qin Feng asked again. This is the most core issue now.

"Because the rescue has just begun and the scene is still quite chaotic, the specific casualties cannot be counted. What we know now is that the tower crane driver has died." Li Jianjun continued to report.

Qin Feng lit another cigarette and smoked it quietly. After taking a few puffs, he sighed and said to Wang Jun, "Speed ​​up a bit."

Wang Jun drove the car at full speed and went straight to the Xiquan Airport Expressway. From the Airport Expressway, he connected to the Airport Extension Line and went directly to Yian.

Previously, it took about an hour to get from Xiquan to Yi'an by taking the expressway, because the expressway made a big circle around Xiquan before reaching Yi'an, so it took a long time. After the airport express extension line went directly to Yi'an, this time was shortened to 40 minutes, mainly because the distance was shortened.

Today, it only took Wang Jun about half an hour to drive the car from the city government to the Yian accident site.

When Qin Feng's car drove to the scene of the accident, it was crowded with onlookers and blocked by cars.

The sirens of ambulances, fire trucks and police cars could be heard from time to time, and police officers were setting up cordons and trying to evacuate the crowds watching from the outside.

Sitting in the car, Qin Feng saw two damaged residential buildings from a distance. The two buildings were in the same residential area and were six-story staircase buildings. One of them was seriously damaged as the tower crane had fallen directly on the upper floor, causing a large dent in the building. It was estimated that at least three or four houses were directly affected. Fortunately, the whole building did not collapse and the roof of the building at the back was only damaged.

Seeing the situation at the scene, Qin Feng felt a little relieved. This was better than he had imagined, because the entire building did not collapse, and the casualties should not be too great, at least not as great as he had imagined.

Qin Feng's car drove straight in, but was stopped at the cordon. Li Jianjun was about to explain his identity to the police on duty, but Qin Feng simply opened the car door and got out.

Seeing Qin Feng getting out of the car, Li Jianjun also quickly opened the door and got out.

When Qin Feng reached the cordon, he was stopped by the police: "Go away, go away. It's dangerous ahead. You can't go in..."

"Get out of the way quickly, this is Mayor Qin." Li Jianjun shouted hurriedly, then pushed away the police officer who was blocking Qin Feng.

The police were shocked when they heard this and quickly stepped aside.

Qin Feng was in no mood to pay attention to these things and strode inside.

Inside the cordon, a large group of people were gathered in front of the rescue site discussing something. Qin Feng saw from afar that almost all the decision-makers in Yian County were here, all of them covered in dust.

When these people saw Qin Feng coming, they hurriedly came towards him, and more than ten people surrounded Qin Feng.

"Mayor Qin"

"Mayor Qin"

"..."

They greeted Qin Feng respectfully one by one.

Qin Feng's face turned pale, and he didn't even respond. He looked directly at Peng Shenghui: "What are the casualties now?"

"The only confirmed death at present is the crane driver. The specific casualties in the building are still unclear and rescue work has not yet officially started," Peng Shenghui replied.

"Why hasn't the rescue work been carried out yet? How long has it been?" Qin Feng was angry.

"There are several difficulties in the rescue. First, in order to carry out the rescue, the tower crane body that has fallen down must be removed before the rescue can be carried out. This tower body needs another crane to be arranged to be lifted, and it must be dismantled before lifting."

"The crane has arrived over there and is preparing to set up the equipment for operations." Peng Shenghui continued to report.

"You go on."

"The second difficulty is whether this building will collapse. We dare not let our firefighters go in directly to rescue. If this building collapses, our firefighters will..." Peng Shenghui looked at Qin Feng in embarrassment.

Obviously, the entire county party committee has just been discussing this issue. Who would dare to make a decision easily at this time?

There is such a big hole in the building, and no one knows whether or when it will collapse. If the building collapses when the firefighters go in to rescue, not only will they not be able to rescue the trapped people inside, but the firefighters will also lose their lives. This is a responsibility bigger than the sky.

"Any other questions?" Qin Feng continued to ask.

"The third is to evacuate the people in the building. After the incident, most of the people in the building have fled spontaneously, but we don't know if there are still people in the building now. We dare not let anyone go in to check. We can only shout through the loudspeaker and use drones to check each window one by one."

"But we cannot guarantee that all these have been checked out completely. We are organizing a one-by-one investigation of the residents in the building to determine if there are still people in the building. But this may take a long time."

After Peng Shenghui finished speaking, all the leaders of Yian County looked at Qin Feng in unison, waiting for Qin Feng to make a decision.

For the leading cadres of Yian County, they have become accustomed to waiting for Qin Feng to make decisions on major issues, and then they just have to execute them. Perhaps they have forgotten that Qin Feng is no longer the secretary of the Yian County Party Committee.
