Crisis Management Game

Chapter 111 The real crisis

"Don't create panic. Sergeant Herman has set aside 4 minutes of backup time. Everyone, please follow the team."

Luka came out and scolded him at this time.

Indeed, although the service life of the gas mask was only about half an hour, considering factors such as accidents and chlorine gas deposition and diffusion, Gu Ji still set aside enough escape time in advance.

After everyone rushed out of the factory.

The surrounding western-style buildings were deserted, and messy clothes, shoes, and colliding vehicles could be seen everywhere on the streets. Occasionally, dripping blood could be seen on the ground, as if the end was coming.

After running for four to five hundred meters, the surrounding chlorine gradually became thinner.

Gu Ji also heard the noisy discussions in the distance and the sound of water cannon spraying.

He used a flashlight to give a light signal in advance.

The moment they broke out of the thick chlorine fog, they saw a group of soldiers wearing white coats, black rubber boots and gas masks surrounding a street at a crossroads not far away.

At this moment, they are leading the firefighters, holding water spray guns in their hands to decontaminate the thick chlorine mist.

It was the Hans Army chemical defense force summoned by Deputy Mayor Otto.

When the chemical defense soldiers saw Gu Ji and others rushing out of the poisonous gas, they were slightly stunned at first. It was not until the captain gave the order that they drank the water.

"Rinse and disinfect them immediately!"

Seeing this, Gu Jixian gently placed Leer on the ground.

Then, under the spraying water cannon, the two people took off their gas masks. Without the masks, their vision and breathing were obviously much more comfortable.

It was only then that Eugen and others discovered that due to long-term exposure to high-concentration chlorine, the white sheets that were originally tightly wrapped around them had turned into a light yellow-green, as if they had rolled in a circle on the grass.

"All patients whose skin comes into contact with chlorine gas should immediately take off their coat and rinse the affected area for 15 minutes!"

As he spoke, he helped Leer rinse his face and the corners of his eyes.

Among the many patients, Leer was the most seriously injured because the underground gas storage room he went to was the location where the chlorine gas leaked the most. His eyes were red and congested, his skin began to crack, and a layer of pimples similar to hemorrhagic fever appeared on the surface. , coughing uncontrollably in the chest, with blood streaks in the sputum.

"Ler, open your mouth and be patient. Your symptoms of poisoning are very serious and your stomach must be lavaged immediately."

Gu Ji pinched Leer's mouth open with his hands and asked him to pour in the water.

The feeling of continuously being forced to drink large amounts of water is no less than that of ancient water torture.

Within three or four seconds, Leer choked and instinctively vomited.

A large amount of yellow-green turbidity flowed to the ground, and he pulled out a large amount of activated carbon powder from the filter tank of the brand new gas mask. "Ler, swallow it, it will help you completely absorb the remaining chlorine in your stomach."

Leer had already been tortured by pain and suffocation.

But he still relied on his strong will and swallowed the black powder according to Gu Ji's order.

Eugen stood aside, feeling heartbroken and confused when he saw his old commander become like this:

"Why is Chief Leer so desperate? Doesn't he know how to run out quickly?"

"How could an officer who came out of the Army Academy not know the power of chlorine gas? Leer just wants to use his own ability to protect his compatriots in the empire..."

When Luka explained, he couldn't help but think of the two sentences Gu Ji said at the military base this morning.

The duty of a soldier is to protect the country.

Leer had already gradually lost his fighting spirit on the battlefield on the outer islands of Nannan. Perhaps it was because of these words that his desire to fight was rekindled.

"Ogen, help me soak the pills in water."

Gu Ji ignored the exchange between the two and found a small brown bakelite box from the gas mask jar on his waist.

The box contains the auxiliary protective accessories of the gas mask. The army issued anti-gas reagents for skin and weapons to each Hans soldier to use for emergency treatment of skin damage caused by mustard gas, chlorine gas and other poisonous gases.

These purifying tablets need to be soaked in water, mixed into a paste and applied to the affected area. They can only be used on the surface of the skin and cannot be used on the eyes, mouth or genitals.

"You have rich anti-virus experience."

A short, middle-aged chemical defense soldier suddenly came up behind him, "I am Franz, the chemical defense captain of the chemical outpost in Ludwigshafen. Are you the Sergeant Hermann that the deputy mayor said?"

"Hello, sir, Leer needs emergency treatment now. He already has localized alveolar pulmonary edema, which may cause reflex respiratory center depression at any time."

Although Gu Ji relied on "Bacterial Biochemistry and Radiation Crisis Response" to carry out emergency treatment for Leer, the damage to his lungs caused by the chlorine gas had been very serious. If he hadn't been a soldier and knew some experience in covering his mouth and nose with wet clothes , I'm afraid he died in the basement a long time ago.

Franz hurriedly called for two chemical defense soldiers to carry Leer onto a stretcher.

Then he looked at Gu Ji again.

"What's going on inside now?"

"The leak point is a chlorine gas storage tank stored in the basement of the chlorine production plant. The specific cause of the leak is not yet clear. The workers said that the pipeline leakage was caused by the high temperature of the explosion, and the factory safety facilities did not work."

"Leer risked his life and urgently closed the directional wheel valve of the storage tank, but there is still a risk of secondary leakage. There are currently eight or nine workers trapped in the chlorine production plant."

Gu Ji was reporting the situation in the factory to Franz when he saw Deputy Mayor Otto and several leaders approaching and asked hurriedly:

"Deputy Mayor Otto, have you found Göring?"

"Not yet. He is not at home. The servant said he was out on business. I have sent someone to look for him."

Otto also put on a gas mask.

A group of people talked as if the reverb was turned on.

Franz tilted his chin.

"Sergeant Herman, based on the data you provided and the on-site situation, I estimate that at least more than 30 tons of chlorine gas was leaked. Such a terrifying magnitude would consume a large amount just to move workers and nearby civilians. It is too difficult to effectively control manpower..."

What he meant in the second half of his sentence was that these chemical defense forces alone could not stop the spread of poisonous gas, and they could only be forced to move civilians out of the city as quickly as possible.

Otto shook his head.

"It is unrealistic to transfer people on a large scale. The train tracks and ports all pass through the northeastern part of the BASF factory, which is within the range of explosions and poison gas. If the people are transferred by road, the existing urban transportation cannot meet the needs."

"Deputy Mayor Otto, what happened to the National Defense Air Force support I asked you to call before?"

Compared to everyone's disappointed looks, Gu Ji did not give up.

The defense garrison commander beside Otto said:

"We have contacted the air force base, and they promised to send an additional transport plane to support. It will take about 20 minutes. But as far as I know, the load capacity of a medium-sized transport plane is only three tons. Even if it is all used to load water, it will not be enough. But the amount of water in a land tanker.”

"Sir, you are right, but the advantage of aircraft carrying water is that it can reach places that land vehicles cannot reach, such as the leak point: the chimney of the chlorine production plant. We can fly the transport plane over the leaking factory to sprinkle water, and three tons of water will drop on it. If it goes down, it is enough to absorb a large amount of chlorine, hydrogen chloride, and sulfuric acid mixture, delaying gas leakage from the source.”

When Gu Ji said this, the commander was suddenly stunned.

Not only him, but the surrounding Otto, the two inspector generals, Franz, and even Luca all changed their colors and were nailed to the spot, as if the ground was about to crack in front of their feet.

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

I also knew the reason why these people were shocked. During World War II, the concept of air rescue and fire extinguishing had not yet been proposed.

In fact, he originally envisioned that the most perfect method would be "artificial rainfall."

Using rainwater to continuously flush chlorine from the air can solve this crisis in the shortest possible time.

Unfortunately, artificial rainfall was invented in 1946, and was soon used by Eagle Country to implement the "Protruding Eye Project", which used artificial rainfall on a large scale in Southeast Asia.

As a meteorological weapon, continuous artificial heavy rain can trigger a large number of flash floods, debris flows and other geological disasters, causing devastating blows to railways, bridges, highways and dams within the range.

That's right.

The invention of any technology is always accompanied by war.

The reason why Franz was so shocked was simply that this method mentioned by Gu Ji could be applied on the battlefield to quickly destroy the enemy's poison gas attack.

"God, you are such a genius, I will immediately ask the command to contact the pilot to drop water bombs!!"

The garrison commander was so excited that he rubbed the soles of his shoes.

After he left, Gu Ji continued:

"As long as the chlorine leakage point can be solved, the next step is to prevent the spread. Vice Mayor Otto, you also said that the northeast of BASF's production base is the train track and the port, or in other words, the entire east side of Ludwigshafen and The north side is surrounded by the Rhine, and the water is a natural gas barrier."

"So we just need to figure out the current wind direction and strengthen defenses downwind. Even if there are fewer people, we can still curb the spread of poisonous gas. The only things we need to pay attention to are the centralized recovery and treatment of these flushing water and the interception and diversion of the Rhine River. .”

"I, I will arrange for someone to do it now!"

Otto could no longer use words to describe Gu Ji's talents, so he simply stuttered.

Gu Ji turned around and looked at the poisonous gas ball that "swallowed the sky and devoured the earth".

The most difficult thing to do now is how to rescue the trapped workers in the factory. As the chlorine concentration is getting higher and higher, even if the gas masks can be replaced, the clothing to protect the skin is not so easy to solve.

Professional-grade protective clothing has not been developed yet...

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a roar of engines. It was the motorized troops coming to transport logistics supplies.

Panic broke out throughout the city because of the poison gas leak.

All civilians are busy fleeing, and the roads are full of people and vehicles. The size of military vehicles is difficult to move, and it is not as easy to use as motorcycles.

Gu Ji's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the protective coat worn by the motorized infantry.

He remembers the early days of World War II, as motorcycle crews were kept in harsh conditions to withstand wind, rain and cold spells.

In order to facilitate the driver to better perform tasks, Hans Logistics has developed a special jacket for motorcycle infantry. The outer layer has a rubber protective coating that is windproof and rainproof.

Likewise, it also protects against chlorine!

"Motorcycle infantry coat! This thing is coated with rubber to prevent chlorine from penetrating the skin!"

Gu Ji pointed at the motorcycle in the distance and shouted.

Franz looked back and instantly understood what he meant, so he requisitioned rubber coats from these motorcycle infantry.

Gu Ji tied up the hem of his clothes with a rope and stuffed them into his tall leather boots.

Everyone imitated him and reorganized. This time, chemical defense soldiers joined, and the Chief Building Inspector also found the factory building layout drawings, which greatly improved the team's rescue efficiency.

"Everyone get out of here and leave the machine alone!"

In the east area of ​​the production base, after Gu Ji rescued the last group of people from the chlorine production plant, he turned around and began to rescue the trapped workers around him.

"Eugen, come here and carry this injured person out!"

"yes!"

Eugen just rushed over and took a closer look, but found that there was something wrong with the worker's face, "Sir, this worker is not from Hans!"

When Gu Ji heard the sound, he looked back and saw a white-skinned worker coughing and asking for help, speaking in a language he didn't understand.

He had also rescued someone at the explosion site before, who seemed to be from Uzbekistan.

"Don't worry about who he is, carry him out first!"

"Sir, since you said that the duty of a soldier is to protect the country, we should save our brothers and sisters first. Why should we care about such outsiders?"

Eugen looked reluctant and stared at the foreign workers on the ground with disgust, as if he were looking at a piece of garbage.

Gu Ji's eyes instantly darkened.

"Everyone is the same when facing a disaster. I ask you to carry him out!"

"Lift it, Eugen."

At this time, Luka shouted out and patted Gu Ji on the shoulder, "Eugen is only an eighteen-year-old child. We must pay attention to the way we speak."

Gu Ji's eyelids twitched.

Listening to the specially emphasized second half of the sentence, he realized that Luka was reminding him not to say the wrong thing.

About an hour passed.

Suddenly there was a low roar of engines in the sky, indicating that the transport aircraft of the National Defense Air Force had arrived for support.

Gu Ji quickly directed everyone to stay away from the chlorine factory.

In the blink of an eye, the sound of crackling water resounded throughout the production base, as if a heavy rain suddenly fell. The water flowed along the cracks in the road and soon spread to the feet of several people, and the color of the poisonous gas also changed. A lot lighter.

[Goal: Prevent the spread of accidents and disasters and successfully leave the port! 】

【Please choose your reward! 】

[Risk Judgment Improvement (Medium)] or [Endurance Improvement (Small)]

Finished so quickly?

Thinking about it, the chlorine leakage points have been solved by Leer and him, so the remaining chlorine in the air is like water without roots and cannot make any waves.

Gu Ji chose reward one.

Blue [Risk Judgment Improvement (Medium)]: Improve environmental risk identification capabilities by 31%, increase risk monitoring awareness by 23%, and shorten response plan formulation time by 42%.

This is simply a magical skill in crisis management and prediction.

As the blue mark fell, Gu Ji glanced at the chlorine production plant not far away through the yellow lenses of the gas mask, and couldn't help but notice the cracks on the top of the chimney.

"Everyone should stay away from each other. The chimneys will be flooded and there is a risk of collapse!"

Just finished speaking.

System text comes one after another.

[Secondary goal: Investigate follow-up risks of the accident! 】

[Ultimate goal: solve the BASF factory accident disaster and control the death toll to 70 people! 】

Check the subsequent risks of the accident?

Gu Ji raised his eyebrows.

Haven't the valves of all the storage tanks been closed by Leer? What should have leaked has basically been exhausted. Are there other chemical hazards in the factory?

He glanced at the task progress bar in the lower left corner.

[Subsequent risk of accident: not investigated]

[Current death toll: 53/70]

The death toll is so low?

This was not because Gu Ji hoped that more people would die, or that he was complacent about how timely he was saved.

But based on the scene conditions and accident assessment standards, the death toll from such a huge explosion and poisonous gas leakage accident should be at least several hundred people.

Return from the production base to the outside of the cordon.

Seeing that the poisonous gas gradually dissipated, indicating that the method of spraying water in the air was very effective, Otto could finally breathe a sigh of relief and looked at the oncoming Gu Ji and others, his eyes full of appreciation and gratitude.

If it hadn't been for this young man's sudden idea, the accident might not have been resolved so smoothly.

Just as he was thinking about how to thank Gu Ji, a black police car parked near the temporary accident handling team.

The car door opened, and the police came out with a middle-aged man in a suit and tie.

It's Göring.

Finally caught this guy!

Before Otto could ask questions, Gu Ji dodged and rushed forward, grabbed Golin by the collar, and stared at him:

"Why were you not at the scene when such a big accident happened? Do you know how many human sacrifices were caused just because of the lack of safe escape maps and the lack of people in charge to cut off the power and pipes in time?"

"Hey! Hey! I have important things to deal with today, okay? Rude man, please let go!"

Although Goering pretended to be calm on the surface, his eyes were very panicked.

Gu Ji let go of his hand.

"Now we just need the gas inventory data of the East District factory and the number of employees."

"There is no need to worry about the number of employees. It is now the off-season for sales and production. In addition to ensuring the basic operation of the factory, there are no extra irrelevant personnel. Moreover, most of these workers are migrant workers and do not need to be ignored."

Göring spoke calmly while adjusting his tie at the collar, as if the employees who were trapped and died in the accident had nothing to do with him.

"I want a specific number of people!"

"There are more than 200 people in the East District factory? I can't remember exactly. There are many workers who have no records. It's my kindness to provide them with jobs."

Seeing that Gu Ji's tone turned cold, Golin did not dare to be stubborn and had to answer truthfully.

The so-called undocumented labor should be illegal labor.

During the war, various illegal and forced labor practices were common. Many of them were foreigners from occupied areas. They were not welcomed at all in the Hans Kingdom, and no one cared about their life or death.

This can be known from Eugen's attitude just now.

"Factory gas stock! Let me remind you, if you dare to conceal this matter, it is likely to plunge the entire city into disaster again!"

"this……"

Göring was hesitant. Seeing that the Labor Inspectorate had no intention of speaking for him, he had to take two steps back. "The chlorine produced by the chlorine plant is stored in liquid form in a storage tank in the basement, with a reserve of 75%..."

"Fuck, doesn't the technical manual say that the safe storage capacity is 50%?"

Gu Ji was so angry that he grabbed Golin's collar again.

Luca hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Herman, listen to what he has to say first!"

"75% of the inventory is about 45 tons."

Goering finally broke free from Gu Ji's restraints and hid directly behind the Labor Inspector General.

Gu Ji suppressed the stern look in his eyes and continued to question.

"Are there any other spare cans?"

"We have three storage tanks in the basement, and the remaining two...are also 75%."

"Two more? In other words, there are still 90 tons of liquid chlorine in the factory?"

Upon hearing the news, Otto's head buzzed and he almost fainted from anger.

France also froze in place.

Right now, if just one storage tank leaks, it is enough to put the entire city in danger. If the other two leak, I am afraid that the entire Rhine State and even Vichy Gaul across the river will be attacked.

"Damn it! Why are you making so much chlorine gas!"

This time it was the Labor Inspector General who scolded him first, "Come here, take Goring to the police station and control him. Don't let him escape!"

Immediately, the two policemen put Goering back into the police car.

Gu Ji no longer wanted to care about Golin's charges at this time.

The most important thing right now is how to solve these two large tanks of liquid chlorine without making any mistakes. The current number of manpower and material preparations can no longer withstand the effort.

Calm down, must be calm.

His brain was working rapidly. Thanks to the shortened planning time brought by the imprint, a solution that was not a solution suddenly appeared in front of Gu Ji's eyes!

"We must get rid of these two tanks of liquid chlorine safely as soon as possible!"

“The key is how can we do it safely?”

As a chemical prevention expert, Franz is well aware of the difficulty. "Not to mention the difficulty of transferring these 90 tons of liquid chlorine, the explosion in the synthetic rubber factory has not been dealt with yet. If there is a leakage during the transfer, Neither you nor I can bear this responsibility!"

"No need to transfer, we will handle it in the factory!"

Gu Ji raised his head and his tone was quite firm.

He had suspected the cause of the chlorine leak from the beginning.

Logically speaking, a leak is different from an explosion and requires a reaction time. As soon as workers discover a leak, they should initiate an emergency shutdown and turn on the exhaust system to guide the poisonous gas into treatment devices such as decontamination towers and combustion towers.

Even if the gas finally leaks from the chimney, there will be sprinkler equipment to stop it.

But during the incident, these three devices seemed to have completely malfunctioned, and none of them were triggered.

Gu Ji thought the equipment had failed.

This can be combined with the number of fatalities in the accident and the number of workers Göring just reported.

Let him draw a conclusion:

The staffing of the production base is insufficient!

With more than 200 people, it is difficult enough to meet the basic operations of the East District factory, let alone have the energy to manage safety and emergency equipment.

After the explosion, the workers lacked experience in disaster emergency response and just ran around without anyone to start the equipment, so chlorine gas erupted from the chimney without any obstruction.

After he explained his analysis conclusion clearly.

Franz thought for a moment.

"The method is feasible, but again, the risk is too great. What if a leak occurs during the decontamination process?"
