On the other side, the three groups of rescue teams that were originally scheduled to rest were also gathered together.

Zhao Kaiming looked around at the more than 1000 rescuers present, all of whom were disheartened.

The continuous high-intensity work and heavy sweating, coupled with the lack of a shower for several days, made the smell in the field even more terrible.

However, Zhao Kaiming didn't seem to notice it at all, and his tone was very heavy:

"Due to some special reasons, the original plan was cancelled."

"The new plan is to rescue everyone within 24 hours!"

As soon as the words were spoken, there was an uproar immediately below.

Everyone present has been informed that they will be resting for a few days.

Because it is necessary to build a strong enough steel sky between the central tunnel and the excavated tunnel to prevent the central tunnel from collapsing.

This steel sky will take three to four days to complete.

But why did it suddenly shorten the time?

Everyone's discussion didn't last long, and was interrupted by Zhao Kaiming's silence.

"Construction of the steel dome will proceed, but on a reduced schedule."

"Therefore, it will also bring some safety hazards, which will greatly increase the risk of rescue."

"So, the only child in the family came out."

····

There was silence.

Zhao Kaiming's face became more and more serious, and he swept everyone present with deep eyes.

"What? Now that the two-child policy has been fully implemented? More than 1000 people, not even a single child?"

The audience was still silent, Zhao Kaiming laughed angrily:

"Okay, if you don't come out, I'll check your information one by one."

"If we don't finish the investigation in one day, we won't start rescue in one day."

"Anyway, if you want to waste time, I will spend it with you."

Now someone can't stand up immediately, this kind of thing can be found out as soon as it is checked, there is really no need to waste precious rescue time.

Seven or eight firefighters stepped out of the queue and walked out of the queue.

With a few people taking the lead, commotion immediately appeared in the originally quiet team.

Immediately, another 80 to [-] people walked out of the team.

Zhao Kaiming looked around and continued to ask:

"What? Is that all? Are you really asking me to check it out slowly?"

Before the words fell, more than 100 people walked out of the team.

Seeing that the number of people decreased by nearly 1/3 in an instant, Zhao Kaiming let out a long breath and continued:

"This mission is very dangerous. Those who have parents who need to be taken care of at home, those whose children are too young or whose family conditions are relatively poor, should also be listed!"

Earlier, Zhao Kaiming wanted to screen out the only son in the family, but this time he wanted to screen out those who were not willing to take risks.

After all, this is a matter of life and death, although all of you here are firefighters, police officers and soldiers of the army.

Not everyone is willing to give up their lives to save a stranger.

Therefore, Zhao Kaiming put the right of choice back in the hands of everyone present.

Those who are willing to continue the rescue mission can stay in the team.

If you are unwilling, you can reason that your family situation is not good, or you need to take care of yourself at home, so you can leave the team.

This is enough face for both parties.

The number of people leaving this time will be much less, but there are still dozens of people who left the team.

Zhao Kaiming didn't show any dissatisfaction either, he just nodded quietly.

"Rearrange! Front and back!"

The team quickly rearranged neatly, and the vacancies that were originally vacated were also filled.

Lining up horizontally and vertically, Zhao Kaiming immediately figured out how many people were left below.

660 people, far more than he thought.

Zhao Kaiming repeated it again:

"This is the last time. If you have difficulties at home, get out of the queue immediately!"

one second,

two seconds,

three seconds,

"Okay, a total of 660 people, re-divided into two groups, rest on the spot to replenish physical strength, half an hour later, the first group will start first, and also rotate every three hours."

Li Xiao didn't leave the queue, even though he was an only child.

As a leader, he has also dealt with public relations in emergencies.

To deal with this kind of sudden public opinion that may seriously affect the company's image and earnings, what needs to be done is not perfect, but timely.

As long as the response is sufficient, it is the best choice to knock down the momentum of public opinion in time, and then deal with it.

In such an urgent time, there is no way to collect all the information in a comprehensive manner, so what the leader has to do is to kill the messy mahjong quickly.

So Li Xiao was very sure that if the other party wanted to check everyone's information, it would be a lie.

Sure enough, in the end, no one came to check whether he was the only child or not.

This is Zhang Wenxin, who walked up to Li Xiao and pulled his collar, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother, aren't you a single child?"

Li Xiao slapped it away angrily, and walked towards the temporary dining hall with his hand.

"Then don't you have a three-year-old child at home? Why don't you go away?"

He needs to quickly replenish his energy now, the workload for the next 24 hours will be much greater than before.

Looking at the back of Li Xiao leaving, Zhang Wenxin shook his head helplessly, and he quickly pulled over the two new recruits in the team:

"You two, remember to follow me, don't fmd follow Li Xiao, understand!"

······

inside the tunnel.

Many related people also know the situation outside.

The news immediately spread among the crowd.

"Great."

"24 hours, just wait another 24 hours!"

"I told you a long time ago that they want to make foreign workers, but you don't believe me?"

"Is it really good to dig in advance? Wouldn't it be dangerous?"

"Are you stupid? If it's really dangerous, they won't dare to dig!"

"Hiss! Seems to make sense!"

"We can go out early, thanks to the gentleman from the Free Country over there!"

"That's right, it's a good thing we have big shots here, otherwise we don't know how long it will take."

Different from the joy and encouragement of ordinary people, Cao Guoqiang, who knew the inside story, seemed worried.

In his opinion, the original plan was actually the best.

There are so many people present and so many leaders outside, such a simple principle of slow work and meticulous work, but no one can understand it.

But he also understands that the other party has united with diplomatic embassies of several countries to exert pressure.

If it is not handled properly, it may really cause huge social conflicts and repercussions.

The country also had to take risks and make such a decision.

He now only hopes that everything goes well, otherwise, not only the people trapped in the tunnel may have accidents.

Even the hundreds of firefighters and people's soldiers who were sent to rescue were not spared.

Looking at the trapped people who were celebrating with each other, Cao Guoqiang could only shake his head helplessly.

This is probably the so-called insufficiency and conspiracy of Lizi.
