Chapter 58: Turning into the first move

If you have clicked more than 20,000 this week, you will add another one next Monday!

Shunroku Hata was so angry that he forcibly ordered a bacteriological warfare campaign against Nishiyama despite the dissuasion of the devil's germ warfare experts.

The bacteriological warfare expert Koizumi Takasuke resolutely opposed the 'Rong 1644' bacteriological unit stationed in Nanjing: 1. As a secret weapon, it should be used against the government army in China at a critical moment, and the use of bacteriological weapons against militia groups such as the Wumu Army is overkill; Second, Xishan is too close to Nanjing, which is easy to cause trouble to itself; Third, the low temperature in winter is not conducive to the effect of bacteriological warfare. Helplessly, Shunroku Hata insisted on going his own way, and Koizumi Takasuke had to use the plague, which was barely effective in winter.

The devil plane dropped a large number of rats from high altitudes, and the rats carried fleas infected with plague bacteria. For a time, the Grim Reaper shrouded the land of the West Mountain.

With the spread of the plague, a large number of sick people poured into Ziwei Hospital and Wumujun General Hospital. Ma Qinghan is worthy of being a medical expert who has stayed abroad, although he did not study infectious diseases, but it was quickly confirmed that it was a plague epidemic. Wang Ziwei met the German anti-chemical warfare soldiers in Germany, and immediately organized a health team to strengthen self-protection: first, wash hands, face, laundry, and disinfect frequently, and second, wear rubber gloves when touching patients, and replace them with seized condoms if they do not have rubber gloves.

On Tuesday, when Gou and others heard about the plague epidemic, they immediately held a meeting to listen to the reports and suggestions of Ma Qinghan, Wang Ziwei and others.

The two first stated the situation, and then made a suggestion: the current plague is the plague, which should be caused by the rats airdropped by the devil's plane in the previous stage; Countermeasures: 1. Prohibit unnecessary movement of people, 2. Widely publicize the characteristics of plague and warn people to isolate and not to come into contact with plague patients, 3. Actively look for specific drugs for the treatment of plague, 4. Find information about plague in all aspects, and find a plan to control plague, 5. Urgently report to the government and strengthen vigilance.

Dai Lian quickly sent someone to bring information to Tuesday Dog:

Plague, also known as the Black Death, is a disease endemic to wild rodents and is a naturally occurring disease caused by Yersinia pestis. As an important source of infection, rats are mainly introduced through the skin of rats and fleas to cause bubonic plague, and pneumonic plague occurs through the respiratory tract. The clinical manifestations are fever, severe symptoms of toxic blood, lymphadenopathy, pneumonia, and bleeding tendency. can develop sepsis, highly contagious, high mortality,

In the history of the world, there have been three pandemics of plague, with tens of millions of deaths. They occurred in the 6th, 14th, 18th, and 14th centuries A.D. when the pandemic affected China.

Solution:

1. Control and prevention

1. Management of sources of infection: rodent and flea control; surveillance and control of outbreaks; Strict isolation of patients; Thoroughly disinfect or incinerate the patient's secretions and excreta; The bodies of those who died of the plague had to be cremated, and the bodies of the sick and dead animals had to be cremated.

2. Cut off the route of transmission: reduce contact between people and animals, isolate epidemic areas, and disinfect areas that are prone to infection

3. Protection of susceptible persons: the elderly, children, menstruating women, children, menstruating women, and medical personnel should take preventive antibacterial drugs, especially medical personnel should do a good job of personal protection

2. Treatment

1. A large number of injections or oral anti-inflammatory drugs

2. Supplement a large amount of food, salt and water that are easy to absorb.

Ma Qinghan and Wang Ziwei immediately adjusted their deployment according to the information provided by Dai Li:

1. Immediately compile and print the common sense, measures, systems and other materials for the prevention and control of plague, organize personnel to publicize and explain to all villages and households, and require the people to cooperate, otherwise the whole family will be shot.

2. The pharmaceutical factory makes every effort to produce rodenticide and flea repellent drugs, and distributes them to the people free of charge.

3. The manufacturing and repair factories and equipment factories are fully engaged in the production of rat traps, which are organized by the troops to be placed and collected from dead rats and other wild animals for cremation.

4. At the expense of damaging the equipment, the equipment for the production of alcohol was converted to the production of high-concentration acetic acid, and the army organized a large-scale spraying and disinfection.

5. The army shall control and count the epidemic situation in each village and report it in a timely manner every day, control the flow of personnel, cremate the remains of the sick and deceased and animal carcasses, and implement the shooting policy for those who do not cooperate.

6. Organize an ambulance team to rescue plague patients.

Just when Wu Mujun was in a hurry by the devil's bacteriological warfare, the savior arrived, and Li Jinglong escorted the materials purchased from Germany and brought a large number of sulfonamide anti-inflammatory drugs. The reason why Li Jinglong went so smoothly after going ashore was all due to the support of Dai Li, who was in charge of transportation throughout the country.

After more than a month of hard work, Wu Mujun finally brought the epidemic under control, but suffered heavy losses: 117 ambulance personnel and soldiers died, 34 households and 171 people were shot and killed who did not cooperate with the people, 1,597 sick animals were slaughtered, and 24,797 people died of illness.

As the epidemic eased, Tuesday Dog and others were relieved.

On Tuesday, the dog saw that the control effect of the plague situation was relatively satisfactory, so he ordered Ma Qinghan to summarize the materials and report it to Dai Li, so that ** could prepare for the bacteriological warfare of the devil.

On Tuesday, the dog generals Shi Jilun, Zhao Dahu, Xiang Qingyun, Ouyang Cheng, Liu Maoer, Li Jinshan, Lu Ao, Wan Zixiong and others held a small meeting to discuss how to retaliate against the devil.

Wan Zixiong spoke first: "Fuck, the devil is playing bacteriological warfare with us, and we will die on their kang, and I will take the sick brothers and the devil to fight, and pull the devil on his back!" ”

"! We can't let sick brothers die! Besides, what if the sick brother dies halfway through before he sees the devil? Shi Jilun scolded Wan Zixiong, they rolled over from the rivers and lakes to the war together, and they didn't have to save face.

"Makes sense!" Ouyang Cheng uncharacteristically supported Wan Zixiong, Ouyang from the regular army

Cheng and these leaders from ** backgrounds usually don't think of each other, although he admires these spirits, but he can't keep up with their ideas.

"How?" Several people spoke in unison.

"Rabbits are also rodents and can also transmit plague!" Ouyang Cheng explained.

"What's going on?" The crowd didn't understand what a "rodent" was.

"Rabbits and rats are close relatives and can both transmit plague. Let's find some dead rats, infect the rabbits, and then let the rabbits infect the devils! "Ouyang Cheng had no choice but to make analogies so that the leaders could understand.

"But how do you get the rabbit to the devil? I don't want to infect another group of brothers because of this! On Tuesday, the dog expressed his position, and Zhao Dahu, Xiang Qingyun and others agreed.

"I can't help it, but Ma Qinghan and Wang Ziwei should have a way, and Wu Dalang and their circus may also have a way."

"Call it now!" Tuesday Dog, Shi Jilun, Zhao Dahu, and Xiang Qingyun spoke in unison.

When the masters from all walks of life arrived, Ouyang Cheng said the idea of getting the rabbits infected with the plague to the devil barracks, and everyone pondered.

After a while, Qiao Xingzhu coughed, and then spoke unhurriedly: "I have a way to ......"

On Tuesday, the dog sent people to take 2,000 old breeding rabbits from Zhou's farm, raised them in a ravine, and smoked them with opium seven times a day to make the rabbits addicted.

The dead rats picked up by the ambulance team were not cremated, and some live rats were also cultured together with the dead rats and killed, and then stored together in condoms, and the condoms with good mouths were sterilized every day, and there were hidden places.

Shujin Tang produced extended grenadiers and special grenades. Lengthening the grenadier can increase the range by up to 800 meters, and throwing grenades is done by throwing grenades with clay pot lime, but replacing the lime with a mixture of opium and black powder.

Wan Zixiong led the team, and the ambulance team trained a mixed death squad, a total of 6 detachments, 10 people per team, 2 grenadiers, 1 extended grenadier per person, 5 special grenades, 2 light machine gunners, 1 Type 96 light machine gun per person, 5 magazines, 2 snipers, a sniper rifle per person, 120 rounds of ammunition, 4 ambulance team members, each with a cage of 3 rabbits, 1 dead mouse (condom sealing).

After the rabbit smoked opium and became addicted, each detachment received rabbits and dead mice. Then it was divided into six routes and set off to the devil barracks outside the six cities of Nanjing, Ma'anshan, Zhenjiang, Changzhou, Jiangyin and Wuxi.

The detachment led by Wan Zixiong arrived outside the Moling Devil Barracks and carried out the predetermined process:

The grenadiers and machine gunners formed positions on the flanks and behind the ambulances, away from the ambulance crews;

The grenadier fired 5 special grenades and retreated, the machine gunner took cover, and the sniper killed the devil sentry and found the devil of the Wu Mu army; The devils searched for the positions of the Wu Mu army.

4 ambulance team members first wiped their hands with acetic acid and then put the condom on their hands, opened the condom that kept the dead mice, exposed half of the dead mice, and the other half was held with their hands and smeared on the rabbit, and the rabbits in the cage smelled the smell of opium wafting from the devil's position, and the rabbits who had stopped supplying opium for 2 days became agitated, and the 4 ambulance team members opened the cage and released the rabbits, and saw the rabbits running in the direction of the devil's barracks, and then quietly evacuated.

In the pre-selected hiding place, the ambulance team took off their full body clothes, wiped their bodies with acetic acid, changed into the clothes prepared in advance by the receiving personnel, set fire to the old clothes, and then retreated under the cover of snipers and machine gunners in the distance.

The detachments withdrew to the area controlled by the Wumu Army and immediately moved into a pre-arranged isolation and observation room, where they took medicine and bathed every day.

After 10 days of observation, none of the personnel of the detachment were infected. The Devil's barracks began to spread the plague......

Niu Daojia was still unsatisfied, and took his subordinates to wander around the devil far away, and used a hard crossbow to launch an envelope with the words "General Toshiroku Hata personally opened", and sent hundreds of letters.

When Shunroku Hata received the letter, he opened it and saw that there were only a few numbers except for a handful of hair:

Lift a stone to shoot his own feet, uncle, no ears

Shunroku Hata looked at the letter, then looked at the broken hair in the letter, and then thought of the plague, his face began to turn pale, his breathing began to be short, and he shouted hysterically: "Doctor ----"

In view of the plague epidemic, the devils did not dare to attack the Wu Mu army at the beginning, and now the Wu Mu army does not dare to attack the devils, so they can only monitor from a distance and watch the devils toss.

It's spring, it's time to farm, and the epidemic in Xishan has finally been completely extinguished, but it didn't have a good Spring Festival, and on Tuesday the dog ordered all places to lift the quarantine ban and start spring ploughing!

Tong Hailai asked for instructions, many media in Europe and the United States have hired him as a special correspondent, can he publish a draft on this bacteriological warfare, and is there a link that needs to be kept secret? On Tuesday, the dog and others agreed, but how to control the rabbit link should be kept secret, and only the rabbit was mentioned, not the control. Tong Hai successfully made a small fortune, and the manuscript fee of the European media is still very considerable!

Under the reprimand of the General Staff Headquarters, Shunroku Hata was so angry that he wanted to disembowel, and was stopped by his subordinates, and the General Staff Headquarters also sent an order: For the sake of the Emperor and the Great East Asian Holy War, he must not be disemboweled, and continue to serve the Emperor.

After receiving a telegram from the General Staff Headquarters, Shunroku Hata secretly smiled: Disembowelment? Fools are talented, but they are just shows! Disembowelment is a game to amuse middle and lower-ranking officers and soldiers, and senior generals understand the rules of this game.

Although he didn't have to disembowel, Shunroku Hata didn't have a good time: as the weather warmed, the epidemic became more and more difficult to control, and the devil's germ warfare experts were also scrambling to save the situation.

The chairman of the committee received Dai Li's summary of Wu Mujun's bacteriological warfare and immediately distributed it to all war zones, and Dai Li's and Tuesday dogs each received a medal of the Blue Sky and White Sun.

On Tuesday, the dog didn't care about the medal, but he cared about all the materials that arrived, and held a special meeting to discuss the use and distribution of these materials: aspirin, diazepam, sulfonamides and other medicines; 5 X-ray machines, 20 microscopes, 10 sets of shadowless lamps, operating tables and other medical equipment; 1,000 Zeiss telescopes; 100 artillery mirrors; 1000 bicycles; 100 radio stations of various types, 100 telephone exchanges, 5000 telephones, 1000 radios and 10 sets of radio transmitters, 5 sets of thermal generators, 5 sets of hydroelectric generators, 2000 shell guns, 2000 MP28 submachine guns, 500 98K sniper rifles, 20 base numbers of supporting ammunition, 5 sets of magazine making equipment, 100 watches, 1000 pocket watches, 2000 portable alarm watches, 2000 razors, machine tool cutting tools and drill bits of less than 1 ton, 10,000 Browning automatic rifles, 1,000 Browning light machine guns, 10 sets of supporting repair equipment, 100 Browning anti-aircraft machine guns; 500 grenade machine guns, each with 2,000 rounds of ammunition, 16 chain-oriented radar stations; 100 tons of condensed milk, 1 ton of coffee, 1 ton of chocolate......

Arrange the big items first:

5 sets of thermal generators and 5 sets of hydroelectric generators were handed over to Shujintang for installation and commissioning;

The other 10 chain-oriented radar stations were sent to Dai Li, Chongqing, and 500 bicycles, 50 radio stations, 50 telephone exchanges, 1,000 telephones, 500 artillery mirrors, 500 pocket watches, 1,000 portable alarm meters, and 5 sets of radio transmitters.

1 X-ray machine donated to the "Women for Salvation Congress" organized by the First Lady;

2 sets of shadowless lamps, operating beds and some medicines were "sold" to the New Fourth Army;

Establish 3 radio transmitters (including 2 sets of spare) and establish a code language system for rapid issuance of instructions and troop entertainment;

Six chains established telephone contact with the radar station, formed an air defense command center, and put in 36 anti-aircraft machine guns to establish an air defense battalion, which consisted of six air defense companies, three ammunition companies, and a communications company, and the battalion commander was Wang Junshan, who was under Xiang Qingyun, and Ouyang Cheng was in charge of serving as the director of the air defense command center;

20 grenade machine guns were sampled for Zheng Qiguang, half of the other 480 were used as reserves, and 240 were set up as 2 mobile fire battalions, directly under the headquarters of the Wumu Army, and the battalion commanders were Jin Manlou, the commander of the third company of the first battalion of the former Fourth Infantry Brigade, and Wu Yuwen, the commander of the first company of the second battalion of the former Fourth Infantry Brigade;

Privately, he gave Gu Zhutong 100 Browning light machine guns, 20 watches, and 100 portable clocks to the Third War Zone;

Coffee and chocolate are distributed to Zhou Dagou as a lubricant for dealing with foreigners;

condensed milk is used as an emergency supply reserve;

Other supplies will be allocated to the troops as needed and used as reserves......

The chairman of the committee was very satisfied with the list of "donations" made by the dog on Tuesday: Although these equipment were not guns and other lethal weapons, such as radios, telephones, watches, alarm watches, artillery mirrors, and radio stations were all sought-after materials for the command system of the troops, and they were all necessities that he was reluctant to buy, especially the 10 chain-direction radar stations, which effectively relieved the pressure on Chongqing from the Japanese air raid and reduced the losses of the Chongqing industrial base; It also shows that this Tuesday dog has a unique way of thinking and is a rare talent. The chairman was determined to bring the Tuesday dog under his command.

Just as the Wu Mu Army was busy equipping its troops and supporting **, Shunroku Hahata was still busy extinguishing the plague, so that the plan to occupy Nanchang after the "Ren Operation" of the 11th Army of the Devils was scheduled to use bacteriological warfare to weaken ** because of fear of retaliation, and the original attack on Nanchang launched in early March had to be postponed to April, and the plan to carry out bacteriological warfare against Chongqing was even more stillborn.
