The plan did not change quickly, and the sudden mining accident made Chang Ning stay in the capital for only five days.

Hold meetings during the day, stay free to wander, visit Yang Maniac to talk about wine, brag with his cousin Chang Weiguo, dig out some stories of war, go to Ning's house every day to have a meal, tell a story about the past of a teenager to make the old couple happy, live in Liu Yuehong's place as usual at night, the days of leisure pass quickly, five days are just a short moment, if it weren't for this unexpected change, he is really a little happy, and promised the "prospective grandmother" to stay in Beijing for a few days after the meeting.

Before dinner, Chang Ning accompanied Ning Ruifeng to read the newspaper, in fact, he pretended to read, only looked at the front page to see the headline, and watched the flowers in a flash, Ning Ruifeng wore reading glasses to read carefully, and rarely read Zhijiang Daily before, because of Chang Ning, now Zhijiang Daily has become a must-see for him every day.

Ning Ruifeng handed a piece of Zhijiang Daily to Chang Ning, "Yesterday's newspaper has news from your Qingyang. ”

A mine collapse accident occurred in the Longshan aluminum mine in Qingyang County...... Thirty-seven miners were buried underground...... As of the early hours of this morning, the rescue work of the departments concerned is still in full swing, and the 37 buried miners have lost contact with the outside world for 24 hours, and their fate is currently unknown...... This newspaper will continue to follow up and report......

Chang Ningluo stood up, it should have been an accident in the early morning of the day before yesterday, it has been more than sixty hours now, damn stinky girl, why don't you make a phone call, he is the actual person in charge of safety production in the county, although he is on a business trip, he should also be responsible for returning to Qingyang immediately, not to mention that he is familiar with the Longshan aluminum mine, understands the special geological structure there, and also helped the mine leaders to formulate an emergency rescue plan for mining disasters.

Chang Ning picked up the phone and dialed out......

"Hey, the county government duty room? I'm Chang Ning, who are you? Chang Ning's voice was anxious and angry, and Ning Ruifeng walked over and patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

Hearing Chang Ning's loud voice, Qiao Hanxiang and Liu Yuehong, as well as Ning Xiaohan, who came back to Beijing on a business trip today, all walked out of the kitchen.

Chang Ning lowered his voice slightly, and said into the phone: "Oh, Lao Zhang, let me ask you, how is the rescue work going now in the mining accident of Longshan aluminum mine?" ”

After a while, Chang Ning put down the phone, sat down and thought about it, then raised his head and said to Ning Ruifeng: "Old man, the collapse of the Longshan aluminum mine has happened for sixty-three hours, and it is currently raining there, and the rescue work is progressing slowly, but with my understanding of the Longshan aluminum mine, as long as there is no accident such as underground water penetration and toxic gas eruption, the buried miners should be able to survive for at least three days, and if they know a little self-help knowledge, they will definitely survive for five or six days or even longer, therefore, I conclude that they are still alive, Among the provincial, prefectural and county commanders who rescued the mine, no one knows more about the Longshan Aluminum Mine than me, and no one knows how to rescue the buried miners better than me. ”

Ning Ruifeng thought solemnly for a while, and finally nodded and smiled slowly, "Stinky boy, eat first, I'll call the Air Force, so that you can also enjoy the waiting of a special plane." ”

Chang Ning smiled bitterly and said: "Old man, thank you for your wise decision, is this also serving the people, I am like an arrow here, you should act quickly, don't swallow it slowly." ”

Nearly eight hours later, at about one o'clock in the morning of the next day, Chang Ning jumped out of the plane at the military airfield of the Qingzhou Military Division, and Ma jumped into the jeep of Ma Taixing, the commander of the military division, who had been waiting for a long time, and shouted: "Commander Ma, thank you." Matthew waved his hand, the driver stepped on the accelerator, and the jeep ran with a bang.

The rain has stopped for two days, and the Longshan Aluminum Mine, located in the depths of the Qingyang Mountains in Qingyang County, is still brightly lit from the valley pass to the mine where the accident occurred.

The rescue headquarters was set up in a military tent less than 200 meters away from the mine, and there were four telephones and two maps of the mine's terrain on a temporary desk, and around the desk stood Standing Governor Fu Lu Tailiang, Provincial Military Region Commander Fu Shan Yunfei, Director of the Provincial Safety Production Office Zhang Dong, Jitian Fengshan, Commissioner Li Dongfang, Executive Commissioner Liu Weiming, Director of the Office of the Prefectural Party Committee Chen Jianming, Secretary Gao Fei of the County Party Committee, Liu Shouqian, County Magistrate, Deng Zhijun, Executive Fu County Magistrate, Hong Tao, Director of the County Public Security Bureau, and Chen Longhai, Director of the County Government Office.

After a simple handshake and greeting, Chang Ning glanced at Gao Fei, who was full of fatigue, pulled Deng Zhijun, and stared at the table to stare at the topographical map of the mine.

"Longshan aluminum mine in this mountain, a total of five mines, the accident is the No. 2 well, has been mined for more than 15 years, the maximum depth of more than 2,000 meters, 500 meters near the mine entrance is a slope of 35 degrees, the time of the mining disaster is 2:10 in the morning, it is exactly 72 hours from now, there were 35 miners in the mine, and a mine chief and a security inspector, the mine collapse point is about 340 meters away from the slope of the wellhead, the length of the collapse is unknown, there is only one thing for sure, The collapse was caused by the natural loosening of the rock layers on both sides of the mine wall, which did not cause a large-scale chain reaction or cause underground water permeability...... It's just that due to the heavy rain in Qingyang County in the past two days, the water from the collapse point to the mine mouth has reached a depth of more than 170 meters, and our pumping equipment is limited, and it can only drain about 5 meters per hour, so the progress of the rescue work is relatively slow......"

Chang Ning nodded silently, and hugged Deng Zhijun with one hand, Deng Zhijun's hair was messy, his face was pale, and his eyes were bloodshot, Chang Ning understood that in the event of such a big accident, the pressure on his body can be imagined, the first responsible person is not a simple name, there is a major liability accident for safe production, it is to drop the black yarn hat, if the number of casualties caused at one time exceeds the bottom line of the regulations, maybe he will go to the detention center for a while.

Qingyang County Longshan aluminum mine is a local state-owned enterprise, located in the depths of the Qingyang Mountains in a canyon, less than ten kilometers away from the county seat, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has been the main pillar of Qingyang County's financial revenue, and agricultural tax, Qingyang salt field and county agricultural machinery factory, and called Qingyang four pillars, in fact, the mining history of Longshan aluminum ore, can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty Xuantong period, now has already entered the dry source period, in addition to low efficiency, more serious is the destruction of the surrounding environment, and the continuous occurrence of small disasters and small difficulties, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state, In recent years, the call for the closure of Longshan aluminum mine is getting higher and higher, but Qingyang County is a poor county, the county's local fiscal revenue is only 20 million a year, and the financial expenditure of a year has reached more than 24 million, and the lack of four or five million is filled by the national and provincial finances, or by the county leaders to go to the relevant institutions to pretend to be grandsons, and to cut off the financial income of six million a year, which leadership can not start, let alone after the closure of the aluminum mine, Who will be responsible for the more than 1,700 active workers and more than 800 retired workers, their whereabouts and incomes, and the lives of the 10,000 family members behind them?

Time is life, Chang Ning raised his head, looked at Lu Tailiang and said, "Governor Lu, I solemnly request that I take over the command of this mine disaster rescue." ”

Lu Tailiang immediately exchanged views with Tian Fengshan, Li Dongfang and others, nodded and said: "Xiao Chang, we completely agree to your request, since you are in a hurry to come back from the capital, of course I will not let you be idle." ”

Tian Fengshan, a sturdy middle-aged man in his forties, came over to hold Chang Ning's hand and said sincerely: "Comrade Xiao Chang, on behalf of the prefectural committee, I thank you, you boldly pick up this burden, treat us as your soldiers, and you have nothing to do with the problem, and we will bear the responsibility." ”

"Thank you for your trust, then I'm welcome, I have been to Longshan aluminum mine seven times, but also to the underground inspection, familiar with the situation here, also helped the mine leaders to formulate a mine emergency rescue plan, in college, in order to go to the coal mine as a temporary worker, but also specially learned about the situation of foreign mine rescue, please believe me, as long as the 37 workers are alive, I have the confidence to rescue them."

All the leaders present nodded silently.

Chang Ningjing lit a cigarette and said to Deng Zhijun beside him: "County Magistrate Deng Fu, now please immediately find the chief of the Liu mine and Chief Engineer Wang." ”

Deng Zhijun paused for a moment, looked at Gao Fei Liu Shouqian next to him, hesitated for a moment and said: "Xiao Chang, Engineer Wang is organizing the drainage work of the rescue team, and the head of the Liu mine is ......."

Chang Ning widened his eyes and asked sharply, "Comrade Deng Zhijun, what's the matter with you?" If you swallow any more, I'll ask you to get out of here. ”

Deng Zhijun hurriedly said: "Xiao Chang, listen to me, after the accident, the county party committee and county government took certain measures against him in order to prevent the willow mine from having an accident. ”

"Fuck, you dare to be fooling around." Chang Ning's fist slammed on the desk, glaring at Gao Fei Liu Shouqian and scolding, "At the moment when human life is at stake, I don't want to do everything possible to save people, but I am talking about how to shirk responsibility, I, do you have such a leader, do you know, that is an old worker who is more familiar with the mine than his own home, a person who regards the mine as his own home, are you sorry?" ”

No one dared to answer, and let Chang Ning stand there and make a fuss.

Chang Ning leaned down again and looked at the topographical map of the mine, and ordered without raising his head: "County Magistrate Deng Fu, Director Hong, I order you to go and invite Mine Chief Liu and Chief Engineer Wang to the rescue headquarters." ”

Deng Zhijun and Hong Tao glanced at each other, turned around and walked out.
