Liu Wei is not a person who likes to ask for help, but at this moment, thinking of the development of wildfires and the lives struggling in the fire, he dialed Stockton's phone number.

Stockton had used his own network to get involved in a smuggling case. The chief of the Tasmanian State Police personally inspected his case, which shows that Stockton has a lot of influence in Tasmania. Strong strength.

Liu Wei needs him to come forward to state the current wildfire situation to the state fire bureau.

The mayor listened to the conversation between Liu Wei and Stockton and shook his head. He did not think that this seemingly ordinary young man could directly mobilize the power of the state fire department.

After listening to Liu Wei's story, Stockton promised to try his best.

He trusts Liu Wei more. On the one hand, Liu Wei saved his daughter, and on the other hand, the last smuggling case alarmed the embassy, ​​which shows Liu Wei's character.

Liu Wei asked on the phone, "Can we also call in some civilian helicopters? I'm afraid that by the time support from the state fire department arrives, the fire will have developed to a more serious stage."

Chairman Stockton, I am willing to pay for the helicopter. I know it is a large expense, but using helicopter rescue can greatly reduce casualties!"

Stockton thought for a moment, "My company has two S-64e helicopters, and I can borrow them from some partners to get five helicopters for you!"

The S-64 helicopter is a helicopter originally designed by the American Sikorsky Helicopter Company for military transport missions. In 1969, the S-64e obtained the civilian aircraft type certificate in the form of an external transport helicopter.

If put into fire rescue work, each helicopter can carry 32 tons of water, which can play a very important role in performing fire-fighting missions.

Stockton agreed to help Liu Wei not only to thank Liu Wei for saving his daughter's life, but also to establish a good entrepreneurial image in Tasmania. After all, he was mining here. of minerals.

"Thank you!" Liu Wei hung up the phone.

The mayor looked at Liu Wei expressionlessly.

Liu Wei said, "If nothing happens, the state fire department will soon receive the news and rush to rescue here, and there will also be five civilian helicopters involved in the rescue work.

Before support arrives, we must do two things well within our capabilities.

First, the fire spread too fast. As the mayor, you have to mobilize the town's transportation to evacuate the residents.

Secondly, mobilize the firefighting forces in the town, whether it is militia organizations or volunteers, to go to the edge of the mountain forest as soon as possible to open a fire isolation zone! To stop wildfires from spreading to the town, it’s best to bring mechanical tools that can cut down!”

The mayor now has no energy or time to wonder whether Liu Wei's call just now can mobilize more firefighting forces?

In this case, he could only believe Liu Wei, because the black gauze hat on his head had begun to shake.

Even the entire Australian federal government has the same attitude towards wildfires.

After all, some officials must be held accountable and come out to explain to the people.

Low-level officials like him are the first choice, and they are also the most hated target by residents after the wildfires.

He must show a positive attitude toward disaster relief.

Firefighters standing nearby raised the issue of volunteer pay again.

Liu Wei asked, “Under normal circumstances, how much subsidy will the government provide?”

"Two hundred Australian dollars per person per day!" said the mayor.

"The current situation is very bad. I guess a subsidy of 200 Australian dollars will not impress them!" Liu Wei did not believe that the people of capitalist countries could burst out with the spirit of selfless dedication in the face of catastrophic disasters. He said, " Three hundred for each person!"

"Three hundred exceeds the government's financial expenditure!" the mayor reminded.

"I'll give you the extra one hundred!" Liu Wei turned around and told the two professional firefighters, "Your task is to open a fire isolation zone. If the fire is too fierce, give up. Don't force it!"

The two firefighters nodded and left.

Liu Wei and the mayor are left in the office.

The mayor is now puzzled. Why did this strange young man he had never met invest his own money to help them put out the fire?

He asked Liu Wei.

Liu Wei replied, “In the face of catastrophic disasters, human beings need to help each other.

In addition to the surrounding residents, I also want to help the creatures that still live in the mountains and forests!"

The mayor could not understand Liu Wei's feelings.

But he had to thank Liu Wei for what he did.

"Now is not the time to say thank you. I think as a local official, you should stand with the residents at this time!" Liu Weidao.

The mayor understood what Liu Wei meant.

Take your secretary to the streets to organize the transfer of residents.

Liu Wei walked to the roof of the government building to observe the fire.

It can be described as covering the sky and the sun.

Smoke filled the air.

Residents on the street began to panic, realizing that something was different from previous wildfires.

The entire mountain turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Howls screamed in the air.

At 4 p.m., five fire trucks and firefighters from the city fire department arrived at the scene.

What they saw was many times worse than they expected when they came out.

"Contact the state fire bureau and call on the firefighting forces from surrounding cities for support!"

"The fire is completely out of control!"

"Helicopter rescue needed!"

"Team 1 and Team 3 follow me first!"

"Hurry up and open fire isolation zones!"

The leader of the city fire department deployed.

The mayor walked up to him and said, "Relevant work has been arranged!"

“The State Fire Service was already coordinating, and the helicopter arrived half an hour after we set off.

There are also five S-64e civilian helicopters from Victoria and South Australia on the way to support!" Firefighters who contacted the state fire bureau came forward to preach.

The team leader looked at the mayor in surprise and felt it was incredible. He could not possibly have such great ability to mobilize such a large-scale rescue force.

The town's volunteer fire department rushed back.

"The fire isolation zone has been opened, but the fire is too fierce and our equipment cannot handle it. We need your help!" said the returning firefighter.

The team leader patted the firefighter's arm and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Leave the rest to us!"

The leader turned around and ordered, "Let's go!"

Liu Wei stood aside and could see that Australian firefighters actually have a noble professional spirit, but the attitude and efficiency of the various systems are so fucked up.

Liu Wei sat on the ground with the volunteers.

The mayor distributed a bottle of mineral water to each of them. After doing so, he walked to Liu Wei and said in a serious tone, "Thank you very much this time! I don't know your name yet? Are you a local Chinese?"

"Liu Wei, I have been in Tasmania for more than half a month, engaged in wildlife research!" Liu Wei said concisely and to the point.

The mayor nodded and understood why Liu Wei kept emphasizing the animals swallowed by the fire!

At five and a half years in the afternoon, the sky looks the same as it did at noon.

Since the wildfire broke out, the sun has not visited this land and has been blocked by thick smoke.

The sound of wings flapping came from above Liu Wei's head. The rescue helicopter from the state fire department arrived at the scene, flew over the mountain forest and sprinkled the first bucket of water.

Immediately afterwards, five civilian helicopters called by Stockton also arrived as scheduled.

Firefighting forces from surrounding cities gathered on the streets of the town.

Leaders of each fire brigade gathered for a meeting to deploy rescue missions.

The fight they were showing at the moment overshadowed the stress of the wildfire.

Liu Wei overheard a sentence from a firefighter standing in front of a fire truck waiting for his mission.

He said, “It’s been a long time since I’ve been involved in such an exciting battle!”

He used the word "hyper".

Still with a smile on his face.

With a normal mentality, no one wants the fire in front of them to happen frequently.

But in his heart at this moment, he wanted to quickly participate in the game with the fire.

Perhaps the entire Australian people will change their attitude towards wildfires because of this rescue.

Soon, a large number of fire trucks drove to the scene.

A temporary headquarters was set up in a spacious land outside the town.

In the evening, Liu Wei and the mayor went to the headquarters to visit the fire fighters.

The commander stood in front of the computer screen, holding a walkie-talkie and ordering, "The helicopter department has suspended its mission.

The fire on the left side is basically under control. Teams 3 and 7 storm the left side to prevent re-ignition!"

He turned his head to look at the firefighter operating the equipment on his left and asked, "Report on the weather and direction tonight!"

"The wind is southerly and the wind speed is 6!"

The commander then passed the information to the firefighters on the front line.

It lasted for half an hour. He wiped the sweat from his head, turned around and sat on the chair, still staring nervously at the red dot on the display screen. When it started to spread a little, he stood up.

Half past ten in the evening.

The commander then sat down to drink water, eat and rest.

The mayor went up and talked with him for a while.

The commander turned his attention to Liu Wei, stood up and walked over, "Hello, Liu, I am Mark sent by the state fire department for support. Thank you for your timely and accurate response to the wildfire, which bought us a lot of time.

At the same time, thank you for calling in civilian helicopters for support, which improved the efficiency of fire fighting.

By the way, Liu, I heard that you are a wildlife research expert in China?

I participated in a competition with firefighters from your country in Europe last year, and you came first and we came second!”

Liu Wei nodded and said, "I have heard that Australian firefighters have strong professional abilities. I believe you can control the fire!"

"Definitely!" the commander smiled.

After coming out of the temporary headquarters, Liu Wei went to the rest room arranged by the mayor to rest.

It took nearly three days to put out the wildfire. The lush mountain forest now looks like an open-pit coal mine from a distance, which is unsightly.

Liu Wei thought of the wombat that rescued other animals. He wondered if it was still alive?

After the fire was extinguished, the residents of the town rushed back one after another. They looked at the scene in front of them with heavy hearts.

If firefighters and town leaders put out the fire in time, they may not be able to return to their homes.

The mayor took the government staff to bid farewell to the fire brigade. After watching the last fire truck leave, the mayor turned back to look for Liu Wei.
