How do mainland men and women search and rescue firefighters trapped in typhoon climbing in Hong Kong?

Typhoon Kappa hit Hong Kong last month, and a pair of mainland climbers were trapped in Fei 'e Mountain. More than 100 firefighters were dispatched for search and rescue. On September 13, the firefighters who participated in the operation stood up and shared their thrilling rescue experiences. Four firefighters and mountaineering men and women were trapped in the mountains for one night in the storm and were rescued on thin ice.

Firefighter Li Yuqiang recalled that at 7 o'clock that night, he received a distress message, and at 9 o'clock, four firefighters went up the mountain to rescue. Two hours later, the climbers were finally found, but the mountain road was slippery and some members were injured. Others went down the mountain first, and he continued to save people, waiting for support alone. He said that the female mountaineer was injured in her left forehead and leg and could not walk. Although the man was not in serious trouble, he was deeply sorry to see a fireman injured while saving them.

In the face of the storm, Li Baiqiang could not carry the injured woman down the mountain alone, so he had to wait for support to keep warm the raincoat for the man. Three members of the mountaineering rescue team supported by Saigon Fire Department went up the mountain in the afternoon 1 1 and joined Li Baiqiang in the morning 1.

Due to the increasing wind and rain, the mountain road was blocked and the stream rose, so firefighters had to move the injured to a safe place three times. Su, a member of the mountaineering rescue team, said that the six of them finally leaned against the stone wall and faced the cliff, waiting for support in a place only 6 feet wide and 2 feet long. Firefighters can only tie tents with raincoats to keep out the rain. He said with a smile, when the foot is stretched out, it is a cliff, and only safety ropes are used as handrails. Firefighters and mountaineers sit side by side to take care of them.

The environment was bad that night, and it rained like a waterfall. From time to time, big stones fall. Moreover, the men, women and players on the mountain had hypothermia at that time, and their physical strength plummeted and kept shaking. Su Jiaxiang, a member of the mountaineering rescue team of the Hong Kong Fire Services Department, said that the team aimed at finding rescuers at the first time and only brought a little food. That night, the weather was cold, the food was exhausted, it was too cold to rely on each other, and the head was too tired to rely on the players. As the wind continued to increase, the support team failed to climb the mountain smoothly.

After evaluation, they asked the support team to stay where they were and not to go up the mountain until the weather improved. At the same time, send out an emergency distress signal and wait for rescue. The team members pointed out that the weather did not improve after dawn, and it was not until the arrival of the technical rescue team at 9 am that the dawn finally came.

Li Wei, the supporting senior fire chief, said that due to the bad weather, he had to go to Baihua Forest first, and then go down to the trapped place. He said he was very excited when he found them. "I know they are fine!" The technical rescue team brings materials and hope to the tired players and restores their physical strength and body temperature. The technical rescue team is responsible for the next rescue, but it still faces great challenges. Li Wei said that Fei 'e Mountain was badly weathered. On the way, a big stone flew down and hit him and his team. They will carry the injured up the mountain with ropes and beds, and then help the female injured down the mountain with handling. It was not until around 7 pm that the two climbers came down safely.
