Chapter 980: Vaccines
After two years of cross-examination, the situation of the armpit people and the white people was basically clarified, and the armpit people had about fifteen forces, which could be distinguished by flags and uniforms, which coincided with the fifteen blocks divided on the planetar.
There were seven countries within the white people before the invasion, and they were also in the civil war, and after the invasion, they basically achieved the unity of the front and the outside world.
But the tactics of the armpit people are very powerful, and they can be summed up in one sentence: "Planned and organized extermination of human beings." ”
The Armpit Man will pre-compile a huge cage as if it were a trap, and use magnetic tactics to lure the main human army and the living force into a decisive battle, and annihilate them all.
After its landing, it will not be in a hurry to expand, but first occupy important coastal ports and tidal flats, establish strongholds, and then transport troops from the mainland to increase its strength, during which the coastal search for the coastline and nearby large islands took about two years.
In order to find out the direction of the coastline and the location of the territory, it will take the fleet as the guide, use the large peripheral islands as the transit base, and attack the large coastal towns and large inland river towns of mankind through the military bases in the early stage.
When the waterways and sea routes were cut off, the human transportation lines were hit hard, and at the same time, the large inland river waters also cut the land plates, turning the land between the rivers into relatively isolated areas, and then concentrating forces to sweep and exterminate the human beings in the closed space.
During this period, out of human feelings and ethnic interests, and in order to break the blockade of the river, human beings are bound to organize large armies to rush to the front line for reinforcements.
The armpit people took advantage of this human mentality to surround the point to send reinforcements, and finally evolved into a magnetic tactic, by attacking the organized legions of the human beings, in order to attract other human legions and living forces to rush to their aid, and finally they were all annihilated by the armpit people.
According to the white man's account, in the largest battle, the seven states organized a maximum of 1.2 million people to fight, and they fell into the trap set by the armpit people one after another, and were finally surrounded and annihilated by 200,000 armpit people.
The armpit people continue to cut the land, raid towns to attract reinforcements from human beings, and release wild beastmen, both mutated humans to attack other human towns, create panic, and disrupt the agricultural cycle and social production.
This provoked the plague and food scarcity within the human race, and further forced the human race to seek a decisive battle, and when the living force of the human race was wiped out, the armpit people took advantage of the major strongholds established along the coast and began to advance inland, driving out the human race.
According to the confession of the white people, they found out the composition and principle of black powder through the seizure, and later successively equipped some inferior firearms and even artillery, but with little effect, the slaughter of the armpit people was almost one-sided, and it was a massacre without reason, it seems that the purpose of the armpit people is only to eat human flesh and drink human blood, and to kill people for the sake of eating people.
When he was young, Wei Qi took the box and brought a letter from Su Fangyi with him.
"Master Hou, Mr. Su sent a quick letter."
"Well, you step aside."
"No!"
After Wei Qi retreated, Bai Liyan opened the box and handed the thick stack of volumes to Gongliangxiu:
"These are all top-secret news sent by the royal guest, Brother Gongliang and look at it for yourself."
Gongliangxiu looked down at the thick manuscript in the box, and said half-believingly:
"Did you catch it alive?"
"It's a fan of the outside world, the Central Plains who jumped into the sea after being caught by the armpit people. One of them was captured by Changsun Guo twenty years ago and fled into the mountains, and was caught by mountain bandits, and after twenty years of confusion, he was able to speak the Central Plains, so all this news came from that person. ”
After talking to Gongliang Xiu in detail, Baili Yanjing dismantled and looked at the letter sent by Su Fangyi, and the content suddenly made him worried.
Smallpox spread in Xu, Wei, Yan, and Yang, and was particularly serious in Xu and Liang, and the capital of Liang was even more than 150 people who died of smallpox in Jinye a month ago, becoming the hardest hit area of the epidemic.
The Son of Heaven was helpless, and then he remembered that last year's Yuke warned him, so he sent Ji Kang and Li Yi to ask for medicine for the envoy Xianguo a month ago, which is coming in the near future.
Liang is separated from Xu by the old land of Sun occupied by Wei Guo, and Wei Guo's smallpox is not serious, and it is not surprising that Liang is more serious than Wei Guo.
Liang trade is developed, the flow of people is huge, and Liang is an important export market for cotton, livestock, grain, leather, oil and other bulk commodities in Xu, the trade volume is huge, it is inevitable to enter Liang through people and trade activities, import Jinye, it is not surprising to suffer this catastrophe.
Seeing Bai Liyan's grim expression, the half-hearted Gongliang cultivator asked:
"Why are you so worried?"
Bai Liyan handed Su Fangyi's letter to him, but Gongliangxiu didn't think so:
"It's just a plague, has it happened in your Xianguo, what are you worried about?"
Bai Liyan shook her head again and again and said in a deep voice:
"The disease spreads very quickly, and once there is no cure for the disease, one of the four people will die, and the other three will be disabled for life, and the skin will be ulcerated like a numb, and the heavy one will be blind and crippled, so the disease is very sinister.
It was introduced to the Central Plains from the people of the world, and it had broken out in the Yuke Hall two years ago, and thousands of people died within a few months, which was very serious. If this disease breaks out in the Central Plains, it is feared that tens of millions of people will die. ”
Gongliang Xiu Wen Xin changed color:
"That's amazing!"
"Yes, but not incurably. Previously, Yuke sent a special message to various countries that the human body could be protected against this disease by stabbing the pulp with cow rash, but all countries turned a deaf ear, which made it a big problem. ”
"Then, according to this, wouldn't Liang Guo be in danger this time!"
"Yes, this cow is less than a human, and the cow rash on the cow is not enough to make everyone resist this disease, if there is a large-scale outbreak of smallpox, there will be no need for the axillary people to invade the south, and the Central Plains will also be in chaos. Brother Gongliang must be careful of this disease when he goes back this time, you might as well plant cow rash here with me before going back. "New Bayi Chinese Network first published www.. com m.. com
"Since cow rash can protect against this disease, I will go back and grow it myself."
"Whatever you want, but there is one thing I have to remind my brother, directly taking the cow rash syrup is in danger of contracting other incurable diseases, so my brother is cautious."
"According to what you say, the cow rash in your Xianguo country will not be infected with an incurable disease?"
Gongliangxiu questioned, and Bai Liyan nodded in affirmation:
"The risk is much less. Our Xianguo medicine is very skillful, and after several years of cultivation and extraction, there is a clean cow rash, so the risk of incurable disease is much smaller, about one in 150,000 people, as long as the rescue is timely, can save a life. ”
After the extraction of vaccinia virus in 647 of Shengyuan, the cultivation work has been carried out uninterrupted for two years, and most of the miscellaneous bacteria and harmful bacteria have been killed by low-temperature freezing and other physical and technical means, and relatively pure live vaccines have been extracted.
However, there is still a gap between the pure vaccine, and a long cycle of extraction and cultivation is still needed to completely solve the miscellaneous bacteria in the seed strains.
Of course, if there is modern scientific research equipment and process technology, it will take a few days or even weeks to extract pure viruses to make inactivated vaccines, and it is still necessary to increase the number of strains through intergenerational renewal of microorganisms and artificial processes, so as to completely eliminate harmful bacteria.
However, Baili Yan also used some special methods, such as antibiotics.
After 15 years of uninterrupted research, the first high-purity antibiotic was successfully obtained from white mold in July last year, named "Guardian No. 1" antibiotic. Because the microscopic flora is mostly hexagonal and octagonal, resembling snowflakes, the medical term is officially defined as "snow flake white mold".
Months of testing have shown that Defender 1 is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, and no human allergies have been found, and two or three years of clinical case studies are still needed to obtain more medical record data.
However, it does not prevent Baili Yan from using it for the killing of other bacteria in the vaccinia virus, although there is a risk of drug-resistant bacteria, the initial use of a small amount of reasonable use is undoubtedly of great help to the research of vaccines.
In view of the huge benefits of antibiotics, Bailiyan ordered the Yicaotang Microbiology Research Institute to carry out a process production demonstration, and basically established the production process of using honey and Qiao bean powder to ferment and cultivate Weishi No. 1, which will be put into production in Yicaotang in May this year.
The next day, at the cabinet meeting, Bai Liyan reported the news of the spread of smallpox in Liang State, and King Xian was cautious:
"The epidemic must not be sloppy, Xianguo has always been a place where epidemics are frequent, and smallpox is so vicious, how does Aiqing think this matter should be handled?"
"Back to the king, smallpox occurred in Jinye this time, and the Son of Heaven ordered Ji Kang and Li Yi to send envoys, which was inappropriate. Smallpox must enter our country with its chariots, horses, and people, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be introduced into our country, so the minister suggested that the places where his missions pass should be immediately investigated, and the villages, counties, and towns along the way should be vaccinated, so as to control the epidemic along the route and prevent it from spreading as much as possible. As for the disease in other counties in the future, it can only gradually promote vaccination, and it is not yet possible to promote it nationwide. "The fastest network update on the computer:
After speaking, the prince answered:
"Everyone in the place where they pass through is vaccinated with medicine, ranging from tens of thousands of people to hundreds of thousands of people, and the cost is not a few, how does Yongxing Hou plan to deal with it?"
"Smallpox is a vicious epidemic that is widely transmitted, but it can be prevented for life after being planted, so the benefits are far-reaching. Although the price was a bit expensive, the minister suggested that the imperial court should bear the majority, and the common people should bear a few. In addition, priority is given to children, teenagers, and young people to be vaccinated, children can be free of charge, then adults under the age of 35, and finally 35 to 14 years old, and those over 45 years old can not be vaccinated, if the vaccination should be borne by the individual.
If it is calculated according to 100,000 people, the imperial court needs to spend 50,000 to 60,000 guan, and so on, 20 million people are 10 million guan. However, the current supply of drugs is insufficient, so in the short term, it can only meet the needs of 500,000 to 700,000 people per year. ”
The price of a one-time vaccinia vaccine is S$8, which is about 800 cents. At this price, you can buy rice for less than one stone. On the basis of facts, it is equivalent to four or five hundred yuan.
Even if it is only vaccinated once, for ordinary families, the cost of vaccination for several members of the family is more than four yuan, although the economy of Xianguo has greatly improved, and the enthusiasm of a family to take out four yuan to vaccinate invisible drugs will not be too high.
Taking the county area as an example, except for Yongxing, Ruitian, Xuanyun, and Ruitian, which implemented universal vaccination through fee assessment, only more than 36,000 people in the county chose to be vaccinated at their own expense last year. But if the cost was reduced by sixty percent, the situation would be much better.
