September 5
A magnitude 6.8 earthquake struck Luding County, Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan
The road from Moxi Town, Luding County to Hailuogou Scenic Area
Blocked by landslides
To open up rescue channels as soon as possible
Several excavators race against the clock
Open up the "life channel" above the cliff
"On one side are mountains and on the other side are river valleys
We're in the middle of it to fix this road."
Feng Lin, a rescue personnel at the scene, introduced
Their construction site is located
Moxi Town, Luding County, leads to the Hailuogou Scenic Area
The only main road
Only this road was snapped through
In order to transfer a large number of trapped people in an orderly manner
△ The road section has not been repaired
After receiving the rescue mission on the 5th
Feng Lin's rescue team rushed to the scene at the first time
Due to the unclear road conditions that night
In order to ensure the safety of the lives of emergency personnel
The rescue team began construction early the next morning
Each excavator has two excavator masters
Take turns working until 8 p.m. that night
There was no pause in between
△ Shudao Group Yaye Expressway Kangding transit section rescue team
"We were half way up the hill
There is a vertical drop of 50 meters from the river valley below
Equivalent to being on a cliff
On one side are mountains and on the other side are river valleys
We're in the middle of it to fix this road."
As of the evening of the 7th
The rescue team grabbed the passage road more than 2000 meters
Although there are still a large number of landslides on the main road
But there is no case of falling rocks
Rescuers can take the main road that has been rushed through
A small road leading to the river was rescued
"As long as the task can be completed."
Do it anyway."
Feng Lin said that the amount of landslides at the site was large
The working surface is limited
It became a difficult point in this excavator operation
At the site, there are a total of 4 excavators
And 2 loaders in tandem
"These excavators are transported to the site by professional trailers
First by an excavator from the upper slope of the road
Risk removal of dangerous rocks
Excavators and loaders are then used for the buried road below
Linkage operation construction, clear the passage road"
Due to the tight timeline
To clear the passage road as soon as possible
The site adopts a step-by-step linkage operation
"The place where the collapse is a slope
We split it into multiple layers by excavators
Multiple excavators working on different steps at the same time"
In the process of rescue
There were several aftershocks at the scene
From time to time, rocks roll down the steep cliffs
The excavator master needs to be extra careful
Feng Lin said
All the people wanted was to get through this road
"The most common thing the players have said to me is
'No matter how dangerous the road ahead
are confident of completing the rescue mission'"
Every mountain opens the way, every second counts
The excavator master has worked hard, pay attention to safety
To the staff who are fighting in the front line of rescue
Salute!
