"First team, open the breakthrough..." With the command of the fire scene, four wind fire extinguishers of the conventional fire extinguisher roared and tore a hole on the raging fire line, and the electric water gun and the No. 2 tool followed up and cleaned it up in the north and south directions of the fire line. In an instant, the wind suddenly changed, and the wind assisted the fire. The flame height exceeded 3 meters, forming a medium- and high-intensity surface fire, accompanied by crown fire . The commander immediately ordered the water pump team to extinguish the fire with water and quickly suppress the fire. In just a few minutes, the fire line was completely extinguished.

It is understood that in mid-October, according to the order of the superior, the Yunnan Forest Fire Brigade selected the best and strengthened it, and 80 commanders and fighters were selected from different units from Kunming, Yunnan to Nanning, Guangxi to establish the second new training brigade. The cadres and backbone have high individual quality and strong professional abilities, but they come from different units, and the personnel cooperation is not tacit enough. In addition, they leave their home court in Yunnan, and are not familiar with Guangxi Linqing. To this end, the brigade has fully understood the forest conditions, social conditions, people's conditions, terrain, etc. in Guangxi, and carried out practical exercises in full process and all factors in light of actual conditions, so as to achieve the purpose of running-in the team and improving the overall combat effectiveness, laying a solid foundation for more effective protection of the magnificent Guangxi forest resources and the safety of people's lives and property.
