Thanks to "Hazardous Chemicals" handling, Gu Ji instantly recalled the chemical properties of butadiene.
Flammable gas, colorless, insoluble in water, with a slight aromatic smell, slight toxicity, and most importantly:
Extremely unstable at room temperature, very prone to decomposition and explosion, and extremely powerful!
Generally, the combustion heat of hydrogen is 241kJ/mol, methane is 893kJ/mol, whereas butadiene's combustion heat reaches a staggering 2541kJ/mol, more than ten times that of hydrogen. This means a butadiene explosion will release a large amount of heat, far exceeding that of methane and hydrogen explosions.
In 2021, a chemical technology company's building in Ludong Province suddenly exploded, reducing a three-story large factory building to rubble. The "culprit" was butadiene!
"Immediately notify Manager Goring to alert the entire factory, cut off the production power supply, and sever the chemical gas pipelines. Conduct emergency safety management of the chemical storage warehouse."
"Also, inform the security manager to quickly assemble all security personnel, divide them into two groups: one group uses nearby firefighting equipment to rush to the fire scene to participate in firefighting, and the other group maintains personnel order at the fire scene and evacuates unrelated personnel."
With just two sentences, Gu Ji had left the pockmarked-faced security guard stunned.
He stiffly turned around, pointing at the raging flames behind him, "Sir, with such a big fire, how do you expect us to save it? Let's just run!"
"You are a security guard! This is your responsibility!"
Gu Ji's eyes sharpened, shouting coldly.
Seeing the officer losing temper, the pockmarked security guard had no choice but to shout to his companions, but no matter what he said, everyone ignored it and just focused on running away.
Seeing this.
Gu Ji took a black Walther PP pistol from his waist.
This was the special-issue pistol given to him by the general staff with the big beard after he was promoted to the rank of sergeant, and also one of the mainstream firearms issued to officers of Hans Country during World War II.
Deactivate the safety, pull the slide, and forcefully pull the trigger into the sky:
Bam!
The moment the gunshot resounded, the panicked running crowd instinctively squatted down, stopping in place, even the civilians on the perimeter jumped in fright.
"Listen up, everyone! The military district garrison, government police, and fire brigade will be arriving soon. The entire factory is on alert immediately, begin firefighting, and follow me to rescue the trapped citizens of the empire!"
To reduce the fear in the hearts of security personnel and workers and to increase their sense of security.
Gu Ji announced loudly that "government military support is on the way."
By doing this, coupled with his leading actions, he immediately attracted quite a few security personnel with a sense of justice.
People tend to follow the crowd.
Seeing that many people were willing to follow Gu Ji, other security personnel were embarrassed to continue fleeing, especially since he had a gun in hand.
But what Gu Ji did not expect.
His calm, firm, and brave attitude surprisingly gained support from many onlooking civilians, with several Hans men waving their arms, eager to follow him into the factory to save people.
Seeing this scene, Luca beside him couldn't help but comment.
"Herman, you look more like a commander than me..."
"This is my hometown, I just understand a bit more about safety incidents. Compared to commanding tanks on the battlefield, I am far behind you."
Before Gu Ji could finish, Ler wrapped his arm around Gu Ji's shoulder, grinning.
"Hey, Herman, don't be modest. Tell us, what should we do now?"
"Officer Luca, you stay here as the chief commander. I've informed the military district sentries to contact the command center and city hall. I believe help will arrive soon. You'll be responsible for explaining the situation on-site when they arrive."
"Ler, your task is heavier. Immediately contact Manager Gor, to cut the power and pipelines, handle the air supply and electricity, halt the operation of large equipment, and most importantly: ensure absolutely no chemical leakage. From the current scene, BASF Factory's security measures and personnel are utterly insufficient. Any secondary disaster will completely paralyze us."
Gu Ji and the others had all escaped life and death on the battlefield.
Without ceremony, he directly issued commands.
When it came to Eugen, this guy was still in a daze. Gu Ji had to call him twice to get his attention.
"Eugen, Eugen! Listen clearly, you are responsible for evacuation and rescue logistics. Primarily guide the evacuation of personnel, establish a security perimeter 100 meters from the accident area, demarcate the restricted zone, and also evacuate surrounding crowds, vehicles, and various obstacles to ensure the disaster site remains open for emergency vehicles."
"Yes, sir!"
Eugen immediately straightened his back.
Gu Ji re-engaged the safety on his pistol and placed it back in the holster at his waist, his eyes coldly fixed on the billowing smoke ahead.
"I'll lead the rescue team in to save people."
"Herman, the fire is so large, don't take any risks. Just let your subordinates handle it."
Luca grabbed his shoulder, seemingly worried about this command genius.
But who would have guessed, Gu Ji grinned, patting the metal canister beside his belt, "Don't worry, Officer Luca, I'm equipped with a gas mask!"
During World War II, Hans Army soldiers were equipped, besides firearms, helmets, water bottles, meal boxes, backpacks, and messenger bags, most importantly, with the metal can option wearing accrued to deal with chemical gas attacks from enemy forces or fires.
Because of the chemical warfare during World War I.
From the end of World War I, every army in the world made sure to equip their soldiers with a gas mask to counter chemical gas attacks from enemy forces or fires.
And this metal canister precisely contained a gas mask!
A trace of amazement flashed through Luca's eyes.
Simply because he visited BASF Factory yesterday, suspecting a safety hazard, Gu Ji had brought his gas mask along. This level of caution and meticulousness, even someone like Luca with four years of battlefield experience as a top commander, couldn't achieve.
