"Believe in the way of heaven and avoid the plague!? What kind of nonsense is this? Hmph, pretending to be a ghost, the official doesn't believe it! ”

Here in Mingzhou, the only person who dares to question Chen Dahuo's immortal like this is Wen Tianxiang, the coastal envoy of the Great Song Dynasty and the governor of Zama Prefecture.

In the Yamen of the Mayan Coastal Division, a few cups of chocolate drinks are wafting with a rich burnt aroma. Wen Tianxiang was wearing a Confucian shirt and did not wear a hat. was sitting on the guard angrily, looking at Wu Yixuan, who had just arrived from Shenzhou City.

Chen Dexing or something, our champion of Wenda is not afraid! What if you subdue Song Guo? What about putting your wife in the position of the queen of the Song Kingdom? Lao Tzu is not afraid of you and does not accept you...... Zama Prefecture is now the world of Wen Tianxiang. Thousands of Aztec green battalion soldiers have already been indoctrinated, and they now believe in the Tao of Confucius and Mencius, not the Heavenly Taoism!

"Princely ......"

The one who was sent to Zama by Zhou Xiaoqi was Wu Yixuan, the chief medical officer. Although Zhou Xiaoqi was the Marquis of Zama and the governor of the Mayan coast, there were still many things for him to take care of on both sides of Yinshan Port and Jinshan City, and he was not able to take over the affairs of Zama Prefecture for a while. So he sent Wu Yixuan to Zama Prefecture with a few cows and sheep infected with pox to inoculate the Mayans who believed in Tiandaoism.

During this time, the Heavenly Taoist people who preached in the Mexica Valley and the Maya region were vigorously propagating the heresy of "believing in the way of heaven and avoiding the plague". What do you say that the Mexica and Mayans killed people because of bloodstains, and they angered the Taiyi God, so there will be a great epidemic spreading, and the Mexicans and Mayans will die nine times out of ten, only by believing in Heavenly Taoism and truly repenting. to be able to live.

Isn't this nonsense? What is this not a cult?

Wen Tianxiang was very annoyed, and heard Wu Yixuan call himself "Junhou" again. Even more annoyed. This "prince" was sealed by Chen Dexing...... How can he Wen Tianxiang accept it? He Wen Tianxiang is an overseas lonely loyal member of the Great Song Dynasty who takes the great loyal minister Jia Yidao as an example! Now he is mixed with the governors and princes of the Ming Dynasty, just to accumulate strength. It does not mean that Chen Ming has surrendered, let alone accept Chen Ming's canonization as a prince in Mingzhou.

"Who is the prince? This official is a minister of the Great Song Dynasty in life, and he is a ghost of the Great Song Dynasty in death! Wen Tian shook the sleeves of his robe and said sharply, "Doctor Wu, you go and tell Meng Qi that this official won't believe his nonsense!" ”

Wu Yixuan frowned, he knew that Chen Dexing was not joking when he said that there would be a great plague in Mingzhou.

Although he graduated from the Heavenly Dao Academy, he was not a god. It was a healer - he was originally an apprentice in a pharmacy in Dinghai Port, Qingyuan Prefecture, and knew some pharmacology, but unfortunately he was coerced by Chen Dexing to go to Goryeo, and in order to make a living, he could only join the army as a medical officer. Not long after arriving in Liaodong, he was named a scholar, and after being a scholar, he was not interested in continuing to serve in the army, and happened to encounter the opening of the Tiandao Academy, so he was admitted to the Medical Academy and became the first batch of students of the academy. Since then, he has been engaged in teaching and research in the Medical Institute of Tiandao Academy, and his main research direction is epidemic prevention. If you want him to take his pulse, you can't do it. But when it comes to plague control, he thinks he's more proficient.

Regarding Chen Dexing's theory that "there is no smallpox in Mingzhou, so Mingzhou people are more likely to contract smallpox", Mingdu Medical Institute has long discovered it - it is not difficult at all! As long as there are specialized people who really do the research. It soon became clear that many plagues were not very lethal to the natives in their high-incidence areas, and were almost killers to outsiders. In the so-called "plague country", most of the people live in the locals. And mostly alive and well. It was as if this "plague" was only harmful to outsiders.

And there is no smallpox in Mingzhou, and the people of Mingzhou naturally can't resist smallpox. Once smallpox is introduced, I am afraid it will not be three out of ten deaths (in the Central Plains. The mortality rate from smallpox is about 30 percent, but the mortality rate from young children is higher), but 5 or 6 out of 10, or even 9 out of 10 deaths!

Those Indians who arrived in Zhoushan collectively had a cold, and a few died, as if it was a harbinger of the Mingzhou epidemic!

Of all the epidemics, the most terrible, deadliest, and most contagious was undoubtedly smallpox.

As for whether smallpox will be introduced to Mingzhou, in Wu Yixuan's opinion, it is just a matter of time. Because the discovery of gold and silver mines in Mingzhou will definitely attract a large number of gold diggers and merchants. As long as some of them contracted smallpox, the disease occurred in Mingzhou, and it was transmitted to the natives, it could cause a major epidemic......

This is not some cult that is demagoguery, this is science!

If you want to prevent the disaster from happening, there are only two ways, one is to give the indigenous people of Mingzhou a common pox; The second is to strictly control the inflow of population into Mingzhou, and all outsiders entering Mingzhou must be vaccinated.

The former can't be done at all, just to promote cowpox vaccination in Daming, I'm afraid it will take more than ten or even twenty years! This has to be the court's willingness to throw money into it!

As for the latter...... It seemed easy to do, but Chen Dasheng didn't do anything.

It seems that it is only a matter of time before the smallpox plague spreads in Mingzhou.

Now what is the Heavenly Daoist Sect Mingzhou Great Sect propagating "believing in the Heavenly Dao and avoiding the plague", what does this mean, and how can Wu Yixuan not imagine it?

It's just that you can't say it, because it won't benefit anyone......

After a long time, Wu Yixuan's eyes were just looking at Wen Tianxiang, the room was extremely quiet, and at the end, he heard him cough, nodded to Wen Tianxiang, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wenshan, I heard that you want to travel to Europa, and then go to Tianzhu?" ”

Hearing that he diverted the topic, Wen Tianxiang didn't pretend to be any overseas loyalist, but just nodded and said: "This official has this intention, the shipbuilding business of the Zama Prefecture Production Division is now building ships, preparing to build 50 spinnakers. When all the sailing ships are built, the officer will cross the ocean. ”

After staying in Mingzhou for a few years, Wen Tianxiang has already understood the truth of the truth on the knife handle, but he doesn't dare to go to Europa empty-handed to spread the way of Confucius and Mencius.

50 spinnales!? Wu Yixuan said in his heart, what is the way of this Wen Tianxiang? Is it a trip to Europa or a war in Europa? 50 spinnales, tens of thousands of people can fit ......

"Mr. Wenshan, as far as the lower officials know, this Europa and Tianzhu are both plagued places."

A trace of worry flashed on Wu Yixuan's face, and he picked up the teacup and took a sip of Qiaoketuo, frowning slightly. This seemingly muddy drink is really hard to drink!

"Plagued?" Wen Tianxiang also frowned.

"It's the disease! Especially smallpox......" Wu Yixuan said, "This kind of evil disease is very likely to originate from Tianzhu." ”

"Is that so?" Wen Tianxiang frowned, as if he was worried, "Medical Officer Wu, can we solve the prevention and control?" ”

Wu Yixuan said: "Plant pox, plant pox for the Aztec Green Battalion soldiers in Zama City." ”

This is actually an order from Meng, the Aztec green battalion is the guard force of Zama City, and naturally they must be vaccinated against pox, otherwise a plague will strike, and Zama City will have to change its owner.

……

"50 spinnales!? How many ships can be built in Zama City? ”

The team of medical officers led by Wu Yixuan quickly completed the work of planting pox - this is very simple, as long as there are acne scabs of cattle, sheep, pigs and horses, use a knife to puncture the pox scabs, and then use the tip of the knife to dip a little slurry, and then gently prick the human skin.

After completing the pox, Wu Yixuan did not stay in Zama for a long time, but immediately returned to Shenzhou City, and also brought back Wen Tianxiang's Confucian education in Zama, the implementation of the Song system, and the construction of sailboats.

Among them, the way of Confucius and Mencius and the implementation of the Song system were known for a long time, but he just turned a blind eye. He is now busy suppressing the Chichimec city-state in the Mexika Valley, and he doesn't even have the time to manage his fiefdom Chii City (that is, Chichen Itza), where can he manage Wen Tianxiang in Zama City?

However, the news that Wen Tianxiang was going to build 50 spinnakers still surprised him.

"Back to the prince, I have seen the shipbuilding business in Zama City, the scale is not small, there are a lot of timber piled up, and there are thousands of craftsmen and people."

Zama was originally a large Mayan city by the sea, and it was also an important maritime trade town, and the shipyard has always existed. However, there is no ability to build large ships, and now Wen Tianxiang has invited craftsmen from Yinshan Port, which has improved the technical level there.

"But the tools there are very poor, there are very few iron tools, and the Mayan craftsmen use stone and wood tools. These 50 ships...... I'm afraid it's enough for them to be busy for 10 years. ”

"10 years?" With a smile, he looked back at Zhou Xiaoqi, who had just returned from Yinshan Port, "How is it?" ”

"It's been too long." Zhou Xiaoqi shook his head and said with a smile, "It's better to give Wen Wenshan some iron tools, and send a few masters who really know how to build ships...... Give Wen Tianxiang a year...... Let the navy send a few hundred more officers and sailors, preferably some more artillery, so that I can have a Western fleet, and it will be much easier to establish a stronghold on the coast of the Mayan Sea. ”

"I'm afraid that Wen Wenshan will not hand over Zama City and the fleet at that time!" Yang Aguo, who had already put on white clothes and had become the envoy of the Heavenly Dao and the host of the Great Sect, interjected.

Zhou Xiaoqi looked at Meng Qi and smiled, "Wen Wenshan will hand it over, and the families of his Aztec soldiers are all in Shenzhou City." ”

Meng Qi will hand over thousands of Aztecs to Wen Tianxiang, of course, he will keep his hands behind...... Otherwise, those Aztecs would obediently let Wen Tianxiang educate? Their family members are now all hostages in Shenzhou City! Therefore, the force of these thousands of people is not a matter at all for Mengqi.

Meng Qi paused for a moment, and then said, "And...... He really wanted to go to Europa, to Tianzhu. Isn't his Song Kingdom going to be divided into Western Tianzhu? It doesn't seem to be far from Europa. (To be continued......)
