China Youth Network Lin Zhi, December 24 (Reporter Song Li) "To reinforce and fight the fire, our squadron is basically a big car... many times we go out on a mission, but we still need to rush at night." Zhao Yingxi, a driver of Bomi Forest Fire Squadron of Linzhi Forest Fire Brigade, will "be nervous" every time he goes out on a mission. He said that he must work hard to ensure safety and deliver rescue equipment and teammates to every task point safely.
For fire rescue workers, disaster is an order, and time is life. Luo Li, the instructor of Bomi Forest Fire Squadron, said that this forest fire squadron is located along the "lifeline" 318 Sichuan Tibet line, and it is the "transfer station" of various forest fire squadrons in Linzhi City. The security work is arduous, and the way to perform the task is difficult and dangerous.
Driving on the 318 Sichuan Tibet Line in Nyingchi, Tibet, climbing mountains, crossing rapids, landslides, rolling stones, etc. are all inevitable unknown dangers. This road is often the only way for the Forest Fire Squadron of Bomi County to carry out its tasks.
"When driving on such a dangerous road, you should trust the car and you should trust yourself more." Zhao Yingxi shared that he was most afraid of passing 72 turns on the 318 Sichuan Tibet Line. In front of him was a very narrow curve, and below it was a 100 meter deep cliff. When turning up the mountain, the slope was 30 to 40 degrees, and there were 72 turns to pass. The cart had to turn several times. When going downhill, continuous braking is more frightening.
In this year's "May 31" forest fire, Bomi County Forest Fire Squadron received the task of strengthening forest fire fighting. Zhao Yingxi and his teammates set out after receiving the task and arrived at dawn.

Zhao Yingxi is not only a member of the driving squad of the forest fire brigade of Bomi County, but also the monitor of the first combat squad. After arriving at the fire site, he and his teammates carried 20 kg of equipment up the mountain. The slope of the mountain was as steep as 70 or 80 degrees, and some places needed ropes to get up.
"I was so tired when I climbed half way up the mountain that day. I rested against a stone and fell asleep somehow." When Zhao Yingxi woke up, he found that the cliff was about 1 meter ahead. He wondered how he could sleep in such a dangerous place. Later, when he went on a mission, he told himself silently that he should never sit down at random because he was afraid of falling asleep.
Another time, while on a mission, a stone hit the steering wheel and fell on Zhao Yingxi's knee. "If it was a little more than ten centimeters, the stone would hit me on my head and body." Recalling this story, Zhao Yingxi sighed that he was really scared at that time, as if he had experienced a life and death.
For the members of the forest fire rescue driving class, in addition to their excellent skills, they should not relax their minds.
For nine years, Zhao Yingxi has always remembered the old monitor's words, "The car is our weapon, and under no circumstances can there be any problems." Zhao Yingxi said that when he was just responsible for driving, he did not check the car after practice, and then the monitor found that a screw on the wheel was loose. The old monitor severely criticized him. Since then, Zhao Yingxi has changed his mind and always kept vehicle, transportation and driving safety in mind.
Like Zhao Yingxi, the versatile "Flame Blue" stationed in the Forest Fire Squadron of Bomi County has more than 50 people, most of whom are young people. Among them, 10 members were selected to establish a driving class. Compared with other fire rescue personnel, their responsibility is to deliver rescue equipment and teammates safely every time.
