Chapter 228: Sun Ce is independent
The plague originated in Shuofang County, and when the Xianbei tribe attacked Shuofang, they threw a large number of human corpses with plague. In ancient times when there was no vaccine, the plague spread faster than the flowing water of the Yellow River, and quickly infected half of the prefecture along the banks of the Yellow River, reaching Hedong County.
Large-scale schistosomiasis broke out along the Fenshui coasts of Hedong County and Taiyuan County. Due to the construction of Taiyuan City, Fenshui is a transportation line along the way, and countless workers go back and forth along both sides of Fenshui to draw river water for consumption.
Guo Yi forgot that until the Republic of China, the Chinese had the idea of drinking boiled water, and it was not until modern times that drinking water standards were popularized for the whole people, and it took decades to treat schistosomiasis throughout the country. Until the 90s, when he was in elementary school, he still occasionally heard about schistosomiasis.
Guo Yi patrolled along the Fenshui and Yellow Rivers, repeatedly sending letters asking the rear to make vaccines.
But it's basically useless. At the end of the Han Dynasty, where Chinese medicine had not yet been developed, it was impossible to make a vaccine. Doctors lack the most basic knowledge of pathology and do not have modern scientific concepts. In recent years, due to the needs of the war, the focus was on the development of surgery led by Hua Tuo. and Chinese herbology led by Liu Banxia.
When it comes to curing diseases, the level is still at the level where wind chill can also cause death.
Medicine, like any other modern science, takes at least twenty years or more to basically meet the needs of the whole people. It takes more than thirty years to train relevant specialists.
If Guo Yi was not a warlord, relying on force to enforce it, the students in the academy would be two-thirds less. These students who have received a new education are incompatible with the family that stayed in ancient times, and they are incompatible with the way of Confucius and Mencius, they are like a group of outliers.
They couldn't even convince their parents who read the Tao of Confucius and Mencius to believe that the earth was round, that the earth revolved around the sun, and that the moon revolved around the earth. Nature is even more inexplicable than the objective existence of this universe and nature.
"Let Long Si increase the intensity of science popularization. Emphasis on healthy drinking water and knowledge of disease prevention. Let Liu Banxia hurry up to develop a vaccine, find those who have antibodies, and reward them. ”
Jia Xu said: "My lord, for the sake of today, only by quickly cutting off the source can we stop the spread of the plague. ”
Guo Yi knew what he meant, which was to kill all the infected, bury them, and burn them. But Guo Yi was unable to give this order, and the modern ideas he embraced told him that as a monarch, he was responsible for the safety of all his subjects, and that when they suffered a disaster, the government should do everything in its power to rescue them, rather than push the victims to death.
"Big brother, Wen He is right." Wang Ming is also well aware of the results of this, but it must be done. The plague must not be allowed to spread.
Guo Yi shook his head again and again, "No." First find a way to help. ”
The herald came to report, "My lord! There is a civil uprising in Gohara County! ”
Guo Yi hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"And the people, in order to protect themselves, attacked and slew the sick people in the city."
"Pass my orders!" Guo Yi was furious, this is worth it! Immediately, he said: "I have ordered that all infected people be quarantined and all contact with outsiders is prohibited!" Whoever dares to attack and kill the infected without permission will be put to death! ”
"Big brother, this is not an option. The common people are afraid! ”
"This is the time to test our entire army! Our servicemen must bring the situation under control and charge at the forefront! Isolate the infected and never allow anyone to come into contact with them! ”
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Jia Xu's eyes, and he said: "Lord, the so-called use the way of others to govern others!" It's better to send these patients to attack the Xianbei tribes for revenge! ”
"No!" Guo Yi categorically refused! looked at them very seriously, and said word by word: "You must treat the people as human beings!" ”
The people are silent, they are bureaucrats, and it doesn't matter whether the people live or die, as long as they don't endanger the rule. In this world, the bureaucrats who consider the suffering of the people are counted on one hand.
Hello people! There are a lot of them, and they will be reborn after they die!
"Pass my order to move the infected into the Loess Plateau. Schistosomiasis infected with plague are separated. At the same time, the Ministry of Health was established to deal with various diseases and manage medical and health affairs. ”
Wang Ming asked: "Big brother, now that the people are panicking, what should I do?" ”
"Establish the credibility of the government! This is a crisis PR that must be done well. Guo Yi tapped on the table and said coldly: "We have been propagating the concept of nationality for a long time, and we have also talked about the tasks of the new government countless times. Do you want me to do everything yourself? So what else do I want you to do? ”
"No." Feeling a strong murderous aura pressing over, Wang Ming was so frightened that he took a step back and honestly lowered his head. Although the two are righteous brothers, he is a little skeptical at this moment whether this relationship can save his life.
"Stand down!"
The treatment of plague did not happen overnight. Before the advent of modern civilization, there were two large-scale plague outbreaks in the long Middle Ages, lasting more than a few centuries and killing tens of millions of people.
Guo Yi felt a heavy responsibility, not only for the survival of his own forces, but also for the preservation of the Han people. It is impossible to imagine what the plague would have been like if it had spread in the Central Plains, where the climate was suitable.
When Guo Yi was dragged by plague and schistosomiasis. The heroes of the Central Plains all had a schadenfreude mentality, and finally they didn't have to worry about this lion suddenly killing into the flock.
On the same day, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian intercepted and killed Cao Cao's father Cao Song. Cao Cao was furious and led an army of 100,000 to avenge his father and crusade against Xuzhou. Just as he was leaving, the celebrity Bian Rang wrote an article satirizing Cao Cao for selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and plotting for Xuzhou's territory under the guise of avenging his father.
Cao Cao immediately made a decision, sacrificed the flag with Bian Rang's head, and continued to conquer Xuzhou.
Tao Qian is an incompetent person, and he can't stop Cao Cao at all. Everywhere Cao Cao went, he slaughtered the city all the way, nearly a million people died, and the corpses were piled up, and Surabaya did not flow. The plague also began to spread rapidly along with the war!
Tao Qian asked for help everywhere in order to protect himself, and Liu Bei was one of them.
But it was said that Cao Cao had been attacking Xuzhou for more than a few months. At this time, a letter was delivered to Lu Bu, who was stationed in Yin, Henan. Dongjun guarded Chen Palace, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and others were willing to welcome Lu Bu as Yanzhou pastor.
Lu Bu took the letter and hesitated. Cao Cao is also not bad to him, stationed in Yin in Henan, Guo Yi in the north, and Yang Bo in the west, the task is arduous, and it cannot be said that it is not important. However, he Lu Bu also thinks that he is a hero, and he can't conquer the city and become famous in the world, which is really a little unhappy.
He could also see to some extent that Cao Cao was wary of him and did not dare to give him heavy troops. I didn't dare to let him fight and establish his personal prestige. When he was hesitating, Wei Xu came.
Lu Bu has a concubine, who is Wei Xu's sister, and the relationship between the two is naturally extraordinary. Lu Bu showed him the letter.
Wei Xu immediately said: "General, this is a godsend!" Why hesitate? ”
"Sure enough!" With the support of one person, Lu Bu immediately made up his mind. Immediately reorganize the troops and horses and attack Yanzhou.
Zhang Miao, Chen Gong and others welcomed the city. However, in five days, Lu Bu took Yanzhou almost bloodlessly, and directly proclaimed himself Yanzhou Mu!
Cao Cao, who got the news, was so frightened that his family was all in Chenliu! It happened that Liu Bei wrote a letter of persuasion. Cao Cao pushed the boat down the river, sold Liu Bei's favor, and hurriedly retreated to come back to crusade against Lu Bu!
The first thing to do when he took Lu Bu in Yanzhou was to come to Cao Cao's general's mansion and take over Cao Cao's wife and concubine. Bian Linglong's good name, he has heard of it for a long time, and the woman who can make Guo Yi fall in love and make Cao Cao reluctant to give up is definitely not far behind.
When I met, I was really shocked. When even in the general's palace overnight. In order to protect her three sons and for her own safety, Bian Linglong had to bend her mind to serve Lu Bu.
On the other side, Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he got the news that Cao Cao had lost Yanzhou. Immediately waved his army north and attacked Yuzhou. Recaptured Runan County in one go, and the soldiers pointed directly at Xu County, where the emperor was located.
Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Xiahoudun and others swore to defend the city to the death and fought against Yuan Shu. defeated Yuan Shu three times in a row, and finally repelled Yuan Shu's crooked thoughts.
In order to ensure the emperor's safety, Cao Cao had to turn back from the battlefield of Yanzhou to defeat Yuan Shu. The two sides fought several times, and Yuan Shu was defeated and retreated. Cao Cao was worried about Lu Bu, and he didn't dare to chase and fight, so he negotiated a truce with Yuan Shu, and each accounted for half of Yuzhou.
Since then, Yuan Shu has dispelled the idea of snatching the Han Emperor, and has been thinking about the matter of becoming the emperor in Huainan.
At this time, Sun Ce asked him for his father's old ministry and took out the jade seal of the country in exchange. Yuan Shu was overjoyed, took the jade seal, and gave him more than 3,000 Sun Jian's old subordinates, and asked him to go to Yangzhou.
