Chapter 167: The Plague

"Town...... Lord Guard, the plague has spread to Taonan City, and there have been two deaths in Taonan City today. ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Zhiming, Liuzi ran in in a panic, and gasped for breath as soon as he entered the house.

"What? Pestilence? As soon as he heard this, He Tianci immediately sat up, and finally suffered from this year's harvest, the shortage of food was greatly alleviated, and Dongmeng also settled down, but he didn't expect to encounter such a plague again, not to mention that the plague is a very tricky thing in this era, even in the 21st century, especially Dongmeng and even Fengtian have no Western medicine, and it is not realistic to rely on Chinese medicine to alleviate it.

Moreover, with the development of the economy of Eastern Mongolia, it has attracted businessmen from all over the world, and a large number of people are easy to spread the epidemic, making the consequences unimaginable once the epidemic spreads.

Liuzi wiped the cold sweat from his face, rested for a while, and quieted down: "Yes, it's the plague, the first case found last night, and when I came out in the morning, it came out that another one died in the hungry people's shed." ”

The plague is really a headache, when I was in school before, I learned how to control the epidemic, and I don't know if the knowledge in the books works, but now I can only be a dead horse and a horse doctor: "I ordered to go down, immediately isolate the affected area, disinfect it with lime and other things, and burn all the utensils used by the deceased before his death, along with the corpse and belongings." ”

"Big ...... My lord, even the corpse is cremated? He Tianci's words surprised the six sons again, in the thousands of years of traditionalization of the Chinese nation, the emphasis is on entering the soil for peace, the body is skinned, and the parents are accepted. Cremation of a person is very appalling, and it only occurs in times of war, when the corpses of enemy soldiers are burned.

"Cremation must be done. Corpses are the vectors of the virus, and if you don't deal with them, there will be even more trouble! "He Tianci would never make such a basic mistake.

"My lord, I'm afraid this will affect your reputation in Dongmeng! Something is wrong! The silly roe deer said softly.

Hearing this, He Tianci frowned, this is really a troublesome matter, and it was not easy for him to attack Dongmeng Andan. If it is a matter of making a name for itself, it is really not worth it, but thinking about the severity of the plague, He Tianci immediately made a decision in his heart: "It must be cremated, and it must be done immediately, to prevent long nights and dreams, and I will be responsible for other things." ”

"Yes......" The sixth son could only reluctantly agree, after all, strictly speaking, Gan Zhiming was just working for He Tianci, and He Tianci had the final say at the critical moment. The stupid roe deer on the side was also unwilling, but looking at He Tianci's cold gaze, he didn't dare to say it.

"Oh, isn't this our town guard? Why didn't you go to school today? As soon as Zhang Suya heard the sound of walking, He Tianci came back, and without raising her head, she muttered strangely, and the recent scandal between He Tianci and the female teacher Chen Mengyan has become more and more serious, Zhang Suya has already heard the rumors, and it is inevitable that there will be complaints in her heart.

"You don't care about that. You don't want to go to Taonan recently! "There was such a thing as the plague, and He Tianci didn't have the heart to tell Zhang Suya about these things.

looked at He Tianci's low tone. Zhang Suya also felt a little bad, in the recent year, He Tianci often went to school to run, without so many trivial things when he first came to Dongmeng, and his mood was also a lot happier, and he was full of smiles all day long. Something is wrong today.

Zhang Suya hurriedly put down the work in her hand, bit her lip and looked nervous: "What's wrong with the master?" ”

"There is going to be a big incident in Taonan, there is a plague in Manzhou, and a person has died in Taonan today." The plague is contagious, and there is no doctor who can cure it. If you are dyed, you are almost certain to die, and there has not been a single case that has been rescued for the time being, Qiqihar, hundreds of people have died in Harbin, anyway, you don't want to go to Taonan! He Tianci said.

"Oh......" As soon as Zhang Suya heard this, her long willow eyebrows immediately curled, two days ago she also went to Taonan to visit her godsister and godsister, wouldn't this be infected, her face immediately became ugly, but looking at He Tianci, whose face was full of gloom, she smiled comfortingly: "Master, don't worry!" I'm not going there. ”

He Tianci also agreed, just nodded, and looked at the blue sky outside the window, faintly floating in the big black clouds, is this a big disaster?

"My lord, what is the matter with your humble position?" He Tianci was fascinated by what he saw just now, and as soon as he turned around, he came to Zhang Xiaozhun.

"The plague has spread to Taonan, some things will be a little more troublesome to deal with, and some coercive measures are needed, and in addition, it is necessary to avoid the epidemic from spreading to the army, you must pay attention to it, and once it is discovered, isolate it immediately." The army is He Tianci's lifeblood, and there is no room for any loss, so He Tianci naturally wants to call Zhang Xiaozhun over and give him an order.

Zhang Xiaozhun didn't think much of the plague, in his eyes, the plague was fierce and not as fierce as the rebels in the past, and it would be suppressed after a while.

The rate of spread of the plague was astonishing, with 20 deaths in Taonan on the fourth day alone, and the number of deaths continued to increase every day. In this flash outbreak of the epidemic, even the two doctors in Taonan also died of illness in the process of diagnosis and treatment, which couldn't help but make Taonan fall into a panic like Harbin. Many people are now afraid to even go out of the door, for fear of contracting this strange disease, and some family members will be thrown directly into the street.

A month later, the number of people who died of the plague in Taonan had exceeded 800, and the number of people dying of plague every day reached 50, and the number was still rising every day.

"Send a report to the Governor, the epidemic in Taonan is getting worse and worse, the people are shocked three times a day, and the death toll is so violent that it will not take more than a month to engulf ten thousand people. In the long run, the three eastern provinces will also be unprotected, so please ask the Governor to immediately send competent medical personnel into Eastern Mongolia to save the people from fire and water. ”

Due to the large population of immigrants and the active economy of Eastern Mongolia, as an important town of economic development in Eastern Mongolia, Taonan at this time has become the most severe place where rat madness is raging, and the number of deaths in Harbin is less than 1,000.

When Xiliang received He Tianci's fourth distress telegram, he was also anxious, but the plague he encountered now was not something that could be solved in a hurry, and even those foreign doctors, doctors, and plague experts couldn't do anything, what could Xiliang do? Throughout the Qing Dynasty several times, it was almost impossible to find anyone who could stop the plague. (To be continued)
