Chapter 107: The Great Song Version of the Arquebus
Malaria is an insect-borne disease caused by infection with the malaria parasite through the bite of Anopheles mosquitoes or the transfusion of blood from a person with Plasmodium. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
There are four types of Plasmodium parasites that live in humans, namely Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malariae, Plasmodium falciparum, and Plasmodium ovale.
In the time and space of the Great Song Dynasty, the types of malaria parasites were mainly Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum.
In the process of exploiting wasteland, malaria can cause great harm to humans.
Of course, it is not a terminal disease, the key is that it can cause a reduction in the labor force, which is unbearable.
Of course, the six space-time smugglers brought with them a lot of cures for malaria.
The most of them are compound ** pills, which are cheap, easy to carry after packaging, and have curative effects.
Due to the quantity, the six space-time smugglers only gave themselves and the twenty and a half sizes medicine, because the compound ** pills still have a preventive effect.
As for other people, unless they are seriously ill, they generally drink Artemisia annua soup, which can always be of some use.
Needless to say, Artemisia annua has been used in medicine during the Great Song Dynasty.
For its cultivation is the easiest, needless to say.
Cinchona trees, they bought seeds, and now they are in the breeding period.
If they had both, at least they wouldn't be helpless against malaria.
Wu Dapeng deliberately went to the quiet seedling field to take a look.
The labor force of the quiet nursery field is relatively sufficient, so the speed of development and construction is the fastest.
The water from the river from the two watermills is mainly used here.
Quietly gathered those palace maids and water servants, and let them learn from them little by little.
Jing Jing told everyone that she wanted to build a seed base with these women, because the labor of the seed base was the most suitable for women to do all farm work.
Yes, everyone agrees that although this work is light and physical, the process is tedious and requires care.
When Wu Dapeng arrived here, he was quietly leading many women to select rice seeds.
Most of their rice fields still have to use seeds from this plane, so they try to select as many seeds as possible from the seeds, and at the same time, in the pre-treatment of seeds, they use treatment technology that has not yet been used in this plane.
Quiet has used the technique of blanching and soaking the seeds selected earlier, and mixed them with wood tar at the same time, which not only has the effect of disinfection, but also has the effect of increasing the permeability of the seed coat and accelerating the swelling of the seeds.
In terms of temperature control, she has also carefully taught many women.
Life in deforestation is hard, but thanks to good preparation, life can go on.
It is often easy for women to be happy when they work together, especially for younger women.
When Wu Dapeng arrived here, a large group of women were laughing and laughing, and they were also quickly picking up good seeds in their hands.
It's a delightful sight.
Jing Jing saw Wu Dapeng coming, and said with a smile: "Dapeng, what good things do you want to report?" ”
Wu Dapeng said: "It's nothing, they got the cauliflower, and you can get the agar you want." ”
Quiet and happy, with this agar, she can do a little fermentation of microorganisms.
Wu Dapeng said: "How is the cinchona tree, I'll take a look at ------"
"Okay, I'll take you there."
After the cinchona trees emerge, they are particularly afraid of strong light, so Tranquility has built a sparse bamboo shed for them, which can block half of the sunlight.
Cinchona is an evergreen shrub and a leaf-borne plant, but in Wu Dapeng's eyes, this is no different from other sprouts.
Looking at the green seedlings, Wu Dapeng couldn't stop smiling.
Jing Jing said: "Quinine has a miraculous effect on malaria, but it also has great side effects. ”
Wu Dapeng said: "Whatever, let's talk about it if he can cure malaria." ”
After Wu Dapeng saw the sprouts of the cinchona tree, the last bit of worry in his heart was also eliminated.
Wu Dapeng said goodbye to Jing Jing and promised to pay attention to ambergris------ but this thing is a thing that can be met but not sought, and it is not easy to get in the Great Song Dynasty, which likes all kinds of spices.
The only people in the Badao estuary base who still live on the river are the patients here.
Wu Dapeng had already ordered others to transform a medium-sized sea ship into a medical support ship, and now it is also full of patients.
Wu Dapeng asked the doctors he found to take care of these patients on the ship, and arranged more than a dozen assistants to help.
The six space-time smugglers themselves have not had any illnesses themselves, not even a cold.
Everyone thinks that maybe they have taken too many injections and taken too many medicines when they were in that world, and it is likely that the residual medicinal properties in the body are still working?
It is possible that for the bacteria and viruses of this plane, they all belong to the mobile medicine library.
They themselves know that there are no famous doctors among those miscellaneous soldiers, plus the doctors recruited.
But again, the level of disease in this time and space is not high.
Generally, if you can't resist it when you are a child, you can't live now.
The doctors, who had heard Mr. Wu speak, were unimpressed by his belief that mosquito bites were causing malaria.
They laughed at Wu Dapeng in private, saying that they had been bitten by mosquitoes every year, so why didn't they get cold and heat? It is clear that it is only after inhaling the miasma in the forest that it will be like this------
Of course, they will not argue with Wu Dapeng, but just obey his request and strictly prevent mosquitoes.
The whole boat was lit with the Da Song version of wormwood mosquito coils all day long, and just like the people in the estuary base, everyone had mosquito nets.
On this boat, there were red wounds, fevers, diarrhea, and of course, the most common ones were malaria.
Wu Dapeng got on the boat and took a look, it's okay, those who have malaria are taken care of.
In some of these patients, there is no high fever, coma, or gibberish.
There have been previous cases of this.
Wu Dapeng told these Great Song doctors in advance that if such a person appeared, go to him, and he would pray to the heavens for a miracle medicine, which would basically be cured.
When such a patient appeared, Dr. Da Song had no other way than to use Artemisia annua soup plus luminous sand, that is, bat feces, to treat it, at most with a cold compress.
This had to go to Wu Dapeng Shibo, and they themselves felt strange that they were going to ask Shibo for medicine.
For such a patient, Wu Dapeng had to administer medicine, and if it was not administered in time, it could cause death.
Otherwise, the doctors of Da Song don't dare to argue with Wu Dapeng, if you eat it, you can be spiritual, that is, you can wake up and reduce fever, although you will do it again in the future, but it is obviously stronger.
The six space-time smugglers have all started counting the pills in private!
Large-scale deforestation and land reclamation have a huge lethal effect on mosquitoes in this area, but it is impossible not to take precautions on a daily basis.
All the potholes around that might breed mosquitoes have been filled in, and the entire estuary base is filled with the smell of burning aged wormwood at every turn!
Several doctors don't understand that mosquitoes can bring cold and heat diseases, but after all, they don't like to be bitten by mosquitoes, so they often do what Wu Dapeng asks.
There is wormwood by the river, which is picked every day and dried for later use.
Now, if one day doesn't kill or hurt people, it's a festival for the six space-time smugglers.
Fortunately, they had prepared well in advance, and now the mood of the miscellaneous soldiers was quite stable.
There is no way not to speed up development, they don't have much time, and now the Tatars are actively preparing in the north.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The six space-time smugglers didn't expect that the crystal ball they took out almost caused the war to break out in advance!
When Ahmada Pingzhang, the chief steward of the Tatar group, heard that the Great Song Dynasty had obtained the crystal ball that collected the essence of heaven and earth, he immediately sent an envoy to ask for the crystal ball.
The envoy triumphantly claimed at the court that it was just Kublai Khan who wanted to take a look at it, and he could return it after reading it------
This practice of deceiving children provoked outrage.
Zhao Yu, the official of the Great Song Dynasty, was also very angry, but he cast his eyes on his master Jia Pingzhang Jia Nidao.
Jia Pingzhang Jia Rudao laughed at the time and said: "My Great Song official family is also interested in your Nine White Silk, why don't you send it to my Great Song official family first, and you can also return ------it after reading it."
The messenger was furious and shouted, "The Nine White Threads are the treasure of my Great Khan!" How can you treat it casually?! ”
Jia Pingzhang Jia Rudao smiled coldly at that time: "The crystal ball is also the treasure of my Great Song official family!" How can you play with people!? ”
The messenger was speechless for a moment.
All the ministers applauded in their hearts, but did not show their appreciation on their faces.
This Jia Yidao is still implementing the public land law, and he is arbitrarily appointing young officials, bewitching officials to increase the daily allowance of students, buying people's hearts, and blocking the way of speech!
Many ministers in the court thought of their own fields, and thought that they were afraid that one day they would be replaced by young officials, and they all gritted their teeth with hatred for this guy!
However, there were some elderly officials who couldn't hold their breath and said loudly.
Those high-ranking officials thought to themselves, how long can you bewitch the official family------
In the end, the messenger's words were threatening, one moment with iron horses, and the other with steel knives, but he didn't dare to say anything provocative, so he could only leave with a blushing face.
Later, someone hacked him again, saying that he offended the northern envoy lightly, which brought war to my Great Song Dynasty.
Of course, there are also unbelievers, but they are in the minority.
However, no matter what, this incident made the Great Song Dynasty pay more attention to this so-called crystal ball formation!
If it didn't have the effect of changing the fortunes of the country, then Kublai Khan couldn't have looked at it------
On this day, when the court was in the morning, Jia Pingzhangjia, who rarely came to the court, seemed to come early again unexpectedly.
I saw him happily say to the officials of the Great Song Dynasty: "My Great Song is blessed, and now it is made into an arquebus!" The ministers asked the officials to drive to the school barracks to take a look, it was really a sharp weapon to defend the city, and it was by no means like the previous assault rifle------"
In fact, as early as the Kaiqing period of Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty Military Institute invented a kind of tubular firearm.
They used a giant bamboo barrel as the body of the gun, and the inside was filled with gunpowder and bullets.
After igniting the fuse, the gunpowder erupted, shooting the "Ziyao" at a range of 150 paces and about 230 meters.
This is the world's first rifle that fires bullets, but it is basically a disposable product, and the so-called sub-kiln is nothing more than some stone tiles and other things, and at a distance, the lethality is not enough.
And after using it once, if you use it again, it is easier to blow up your own people, so the army at the front doesn't like it very much.
As mentioned earlier, in 1260 the army of the Tatar state of Ilhan was routed in the Syrian region, and the Arabs captured gunpowder weapons such as rockets, poison canisters, artillery, and earth-shaking thunder, thus mastering the manufacture and use of gunpowder weapons.
Later, the Arabs fought a long war with some European countries, and the Arabs used gunpowder weapons in the war, such as the Arabs used gunpowder weapons when they attacked the Spanish city of Basha.
During the wars with the Arab countries, the Europeans gradually mastered the technology of making gunpowder and gunpowder weapons.
This is how the gunpowder technology of the Great Song Dynasty was sold into the world by the Tatar bandit group.
However, this time may be different.
