Rescue operations that do not require dealing with relatives’ questions and cries are the best; the team can perform to the utmost of their professionalism.
At present, there are a total of five casualties, and perhaps in a few hours, there may be more.
Except for one who died on the scene after failed ergency treatnt, the rest of the bodies are rather unsightly, due to the severe collision and compression of the car. So limbs were crushed or sliced off by steel and flung out.
Those four bodies, along with so severed limbs, although placed together, are not so intact.
Body reassembly has always been part of the firefighting work, and Fang Huai would not let anyone who should suffer escape the ordeal.
Four sa-year soldiers were called over by him. Although their eyes were originally firm, and they considered themselves tough n and firefighters accustod to the sight of blood, their conviction faltered when Fang Huai instructed them to neaten the torn flesh at the amputation sites of the bodies so that the deceased could retain their dignity. Eventually, Brother Yang couldn’t hold back any longer and "hurled" beside the fence, while the other three looked at him, faces twisted in discomfort.
"Is this also part of our job?... Aren’t there morticians for this?"
Fang Huai smiled and nodded, "To serve the people."
Rescuing and handling bodies are two different matters, and so are dealing with intact and dismbered remains. When moving bodies, sotis fluids would leak out, and pushing so parts back in could cause others to be pushed out. Fang Huai watched them, making sure they picked up every piece.
After about ten minutes, the four soldiers, with their soggy gloves, understood a harsh truth that ordinary people don’t realize: the human body is essentially just a vessel.
When the last woman, with her head detached, had her body reassembled, Fang Huai reached out to wipe her face and close her eyes, silently bidding her a peaceful journey before handing her body over to the Highway Police nearby.
Fang Huai removed his gloves and tossed them into the equipnt roll-up door. He didn’t bother with the youngsters looking for a place to vomit and walked over to Li Zhi, who was not far away, with a smile.
"Regintal commander! Your car doesn’t look safe anymore; should we give you a ride?"
"No need, I will return with the full-ti Command Car."
After saying this, Li Zhi smiled and said, "Little Fang, you did a good job plugging leaks today. I just asked Cao Yi, and he ntioned you’ve also learned carpentry’s mortise and tenon techniques. How about it, are you planning to promote it?"
Fang Huai shook his head slightly with a hint of regret, "I initially wanted to promote it, but later found it quite challenging. You have to teach it hands-on because it is hard to learn just from watching videos. My idea was to provide everyone with sothing to do and, in critical monts, expand our rescue thinking and teach thods... I’ll figure it out slowly."
"Mm, you’ve got the right idea," Li Zhi agreed, adding as he clasped his hands behind his back, "I’ve been observing you just now. Not bad, you’re beginning to act like a cadre. Teaching newcors on the battlefield in a tily manner ensures that our combat experience truly takes effect. The Second Squadron is fortunate to have a cadre like you, and we in the Detachnt governnt agency are very confident about the next steps in our construction! Go ahead with full force!"
Fang Huai humbly replied, "All the cadres and soldiers of our Squadron are very diligent!... Uh, Regintal commander, actually, I have so matters regarding the ergency system setup that I would like to report to you when you have ti! I think so tasks could be initiated by the Detachnt-level governnt agency even before the plans are set!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhi smiled.
The fact that Little Fang was willing to apply his advanced ideas to the Detachnt first ant that they would maintain the initiative as pioneers, which was a good thing.
Li Zhi hadn’t paid much attention to how exactly Fang Huai convinced the higher-ups or what sort of mindset he harbored, as Zhang Zhongting was primarily responsible for the Second Squadron’s transformation. But now that Fang Huai had taken the initiative to reach out, he wanted to listen carefully, so he promptly agreed:
"Oh? That’s great! The timing is perfect! An hour ago, the team that competed in the Martial Arts Competition has already returned. This afternoon, I’ll arrange the funds with your Instructor, and Political Commissar Cheng and I will co to the Second Squadron for the celebration feast! If there’s anything, Political Commissar Cheng and I will give you ti this afternoon, and there might even be a task for you!"
"Yes! I’ll go and prepare!"
Fang Huai felt energized by Li Zhi’s proactive attitude; with support from the Detachnt, everything could move much faster.
Through self-reform and seizing opportunities, Fang would not naively believe they could continue to strive until the day of receiving the banner on November 9th, 2018.
Major decisions within the national system are usually set several years in advance.
Since the military reform across the entire army in 2015, there had been whispers of a firefighting reform, and the decision regarding this military reform was likely even earlier. The earlier one strives before the decision is made, the greater the chance of success.
Calculating it, the ti left for the Fire Brigade was running short.
Li Zhi watched with a smile playing on his lips the up-and-coming cadre who was about the sa age as his son, who used to pester him daily in college for dating funds. The sa age yet with brows furrowed only with work, he couldn’t help but offer a reminder as an elder:
"As a cadre, you should also give so thought to your personal matters, to put your family at ease."
The troops’ simplicity lies in preserving so of the glorious traditions from the early days of the nation’s founding, one of which is leadership’s concern for the younger generation’s marital and dostic affairs.
Only then did Fang Huai chuckle, "Thank you for your concern, Commander! Rest assured, as soon as my girlfriend graduates, I’ll invite you to the wedding, and you’d better prepare the red packet in advance. If you don’t co, my uncle will surely co to invite you personally!"
"Hahaha... Young man, don’t worry, I will definitely be there!"
...
The journey back was lively.
The new Car 1 was very spacious, and it packed ten people from the Second Squadron, all of whom were eagerly listening to Fang Huai tell stories from the national competition.
