Chapter 606: Civil Strife

The word "plague" is simply a change in people's color, since Chongzhen ascended the throne, natural disasters have continued, and the war has not been extinguished. Along with the victims and displaced people, the plague also came and went, and each time it became more and more serious.

In the north and south, Shandong, Henan and other places, the situation is particularly serious, and even reaches the miserable situation of "more than 100 families in one lane, none of them are exempt, dozens of people in one door, and none of them are left".

As a parent official, Hong Chengchou knew the horror of the plague, and when he heard that the rogue had spread the plague to the city, he was so angry that his lungs exploded, and at the same time, he was frightened.

In most people's minds, the plague, like the locust plague, is a punishment from heaven, and it is not something that human beings can fight at all, so every time the plague comes, the Son of Heaven must ask for guilt and self-reflection. As for whether it will be effective, it will be up to you.

Obviously, Hong Chengchou couldn't expect God to suddenly show kindness, so he hurriedly ordered to mobilize the doctors in the city to prepare to deal with the plague.

However, he ordered to go down, but received news that His Royal Highness the King of the East had ordered in advance to gather the doctors.

Hong Chengchou was very curious about how Zhang Ke dealt with the plague, and couldn't help but observe.

This look is incredible, which makes Hong Chengchou simply surprised.

First of all, the Yizhou soldiers gathered all the people who had been in contact with the patient and carried out isolation and investigation. Then in the city, according to the streets, the city was divided into small blocks, and personnel were arranged to patrol each block, and the entire Kaifeng Mansion instantly became a barracks. To enter and exit different blocks, you must apply for registration.

This hand alone is simply anti-human in the eyes of ordinary people.

For example, parents and children belong to different blocks, and it is natural for children to give their parents Wen'an and do their filial piety before their knees. Especially if the patient is infected, the family should be together, even if it is death, it is due to filial piety.

But in Zhang Ke's view, this is ignorance. It's just not responsible, the plague is not a person, a family's business, but will threaten the safety of other people, don't talk about any human feelings at this time.

Every 10 households supervise each other, eat and drink water that is boiled, and if anyone is unwell, they must report it immediately and quarantine for inspection. If anyone dares to hide it. All were to be dealt with in accordance with military law, and the rest of the families were punished.

And each household had to pump out the strong men and assist the soldiers in clearing the streets, digging drains, incinerating animal carcasses, and disposing of all sources of pollution.

The four cities reported the situation three times a day, and if there was a little abnormality, it should be dealt with immediately.

And so it goes. Thoroughly manage the people to avoid plague epidemics caused by panic. Kaifeng City did not even get into chaos, it all relied on decisive means.

These alone are not enough, Wu Youxing has studied medical skills over the years. He also put a lot of effort into the plague, and he configured the Dayuan drink two years ago, and after testing, it was very effective against the plague.

This time, Zhang Ke sent troops to the Central Plains. The spread of the plague was also expected, so plenty of potions were prepared.

For the first three days, the number of plague people increased every day. Even approaching a hundred people, but there is a miraculous effect of Dayuan Drink, except for the first two people who died, and a few who are old and have poor physique, the other patients are under control.

By the seventh day, some people had even recovered, but considering that they still had bacteria on them, they were temporarily isolated in a relatively relaxed place.

When they knew the news that someone had recovered, the whole Kaifeng was boiling, and the people cried with joy, knelt at the door, and kowtowed to the Yizhou soldiers.

They do it all from the heart.

For many years, which plague was not ten rooms and nine empty, and which time the big guy was not resigned to fate! When they learned that there was a plague in Kaifeng, almost everyone collapsed, and they cried and begged the steely soldiers to let them go and let them live.

When they were categorically rejected by the Yizhou soldiers, they even scolded and cursed angrily, and now, they finally know their mistakes, if it weren't for the effective measures of the Yizhou soldiers, I don't know how many people would die in the plague!

At present, although there are occasional people who die of illness, it is completely within the scope of everyone's acceptance, the mood in the city is stable, the morale is restored, and the military and the people are in unprecedented harmony, which is simply one.

Hong Chengchou silently observed these days, and there was only one word left in his heart: Serve!

Who said that martial artists can't govern the country, isn't this quite powerful. Let's ask which Wenchen in the world can have such a thunderbolt method.

In Kaifeng, everyone was united, waiting for the fighters, but outside the city was a different scene. Li Zicheng launched attacks almost every day, and the resistance in the city continued, and every time his head was broken and bleeding, he was not embarrassed.

Gradually, there was a murmur among the rogues, because of your losses, he sent fewer troops, and there was a lot of trouble. Especially Luo Rucai and Li Zicheng, the subordinates on both sides quarreled constantly, and sometimes the two of them went into battle in person, and the quarrel made their faces red and their necks thick.

No, today, Luo Rucai's death squad sacrificed sixty or seventy people, he had to force Li Zicheng to send more people, but Li Zicheng said that he had the most soldiers, if he was not satisfied, everyone might as well separate, everyone was responsible for a city wall, whoever broke it first, would take the spoils first.

Everyone thought it was a good idea, but then they quarreled over which city wall to assign, and they fought until the third watch, and Luo Ru returned to his tent angrily.

Just as he was about to rest, there was a knock on the door outside, and a small soldier entered, holding a bowl of thick honey water.

When the poor get rich, their favorite is desserts, and they have never eaten sweets because they have suffered in poor times. Luo Rucai took the honey water from the little soldier's hand, and after a few sips, he drank it cleanly. Lying on the bed, it didn't take long for a thunderous snoring to be heard.

The soldier quietly came out of the tent with an empty bowl in his hand and went to the military tent at the back.

After he walked in, there were exactly three people waiting inside, all of them were not very old, and the leader was Sun Kewang, the leader of the death squad, and the two people beside him were Ai Nengqi and Liu Wenxiu, and similarly, they were all Zhang Xianzhong's righteous sons.

Li Dingguo trotted in from outside, and Sun Kewang hurriedly stretched out his right arm to grab Li Dingguo's arm, while his left arm had been seriously wounded and almost crippled in the battle two days earlier.

Ping Su Luo Rucai was not bad to them, but when he saw that Sun Kewang was injured and useless, he was extremely indifferent, and even let Sun Kewang fend for himself without arranging a military doctor.

Li Dingguo was the youngest, but he had the most ideas, he and his two elder brothers took out the looted savings and asked the military doctor for help, which was regarded as saving Sun Kewang's arm.

Not only Sun Kewang, but also many wounded soldiers in the death squad, Luo Rucai abandoned them like a shoe, and even brutally killed them, in the name of avoiding pain, how could he not make the big guy feel cold.

Just a few days ago, a spy of the Ming army mixed into the Liukou army, contacted Sun Kewang and others, and promised that as long as they surrendered and submitted, the court would treat them favorably.

"Dingguo, the medicine is down?"

"Hmm!" Li Dingguo nodded vigorously, and Sun Kewang suddenly said with great joy: "Great, with Cao Cao's head, even if we have made a great contribution, maybe His Royal Highness the East King can reward us!" ”

Li Dingguo's little face flushed, and he said: "Big brother, little brother thinks we can make greater contributions!" ”

While he was talking, he suddenly heard someone outside shouting: "Oh no, Leader Luo is dead!" (To be continued......)
