Chapter 798: A Plague Outbreak Breaks Out in Xiliang

Zhao Xing's decision to give his son a big gift was not a whim. Because of the recent emergency report from Xiliang, he smelled the conspiracy again.

Jia Xu said in the newspaper that the four counties of Xiliang Wuwei, Jincheng, Longxi, and Wudu have successively discovered signs of the spread of the plague, and now the entire Xiliang has entered a state of high alert. Fortunately, before this, Zhao Xing and Jia Xu had increased their vigilance against the epidemic from the accident of the Shadow Team members going to Tang and Qiang to find Qiang dogs, so when the plague was discovered, it had not yet caused a large-scale outbreak of infection.

Rao was like this, and when Zhao Xing received this secret report, he still frowned tightly. Zhao Xing realized the human factor from the location of the plague outbreak, if it was a normal spread of plague, there would definitely not be an arc from Wuwei to Wudu that closely followed the Liang country, but should be an irregular distribution area.

If it is said that someone is manipulating the outbreak of the plague behind the scenes, except for the Yizhou Sima family who is close to Liangguo, Zhao Xing really can't think of anyone else who can have such superb skills and such a vicious heart.

After receiving Jia Xu's secret letter, Zhao Xing immediately ordered the Jinguo Medical Institute to temporarily dispatch 200 skilled Langzhong from the public medical centers in each county to urgently send them to Liangguo for epidemic prevention support. At the same time, Zhao Xing once again asked Qin Yilu to raise a batch of medical supplies and urgently transfer them to Gaoping, the capital of Liangguo.

In any case, Zhao Xing would never allow a large-scale outbreak of the plague in Liangguo and Hanzhong, not only for strategic reasons, but also for humanitarian reasons.

Jia Xu, who was sitting in Gaoping City, was not as nervous as Zhao Xing, and he was methodically directing and dispatching the officials of various counties to organize the people to jointly prevent the spread and infection of the plague.

Jia Xu first divided the four counties of Wuwei, Jincheng, Longxi and Wudu, where the plague had been discovered, into red alert areas, and dispatched troops to station in these four counties to the large and small passages leading to the hinterland of Liangguo, completely cutting off the previous personnel exchanges between the four counties and the mainland.

Next, Jia Xu ordered all counties to organize the people to burn and bury all the animal carcasses found in the territory, and to exterminate the marmots found. Because the work began to be deployed before the plague broke out, it was also methodical when the plague was discovered.

In the past six months, the people of Liangguo have often participated in the epidemic prevention knowledge lectures organized by the local government, and have a certain understanding of how to prevent and control the plague, so they are not so nervous after discovering the plague, they immediately put on thick masks in accordance with the common sense of epidemic prevention, and lit the herbs to get rid of the epidemic in front of and behind the house, and insist on washing and bathing with soap mixed with sulfur and other disinfectant ingredients every day, do not drink raw water, and no longer go to many places to join in the fun, so as to avoid cross-infection and transmission of plague.

The epidemic reconnaissance stations scattered in various places are running at a high speed, constantly screening and confirming the epidemic reports of the people in the reconnaissance area, and then notifying the local reserve inspectors to isolate the very few households and villages that are really infected with the plague, and urgently mobilize Langzhong to come for treatment.

Since the outbreak of the plague, the entire Liangguo has been like a precision machine, and people from all walks of life have carried out epidemic prevention work in an orderly manner under the organization of governments at all levels.

Two months have passed since the first reported plague was reported in the vicinity of Liangguo in May, and the spread of the plague is still firmly controlled in the western areas of Wuwei, Jincheng, Longxi, and Wudu counties, not even in the eastern part of these four counties.

According to statistics, since the outbreak of the plague, the number of deaths reported in various places has not exceeded 3,000, the number of people who have burned the plague has not exceeded 20,000, and as many as 15,000 people have been rescued from danger after being treated in Langzhong!

From this set of data, we can fully see Jia Xu's superb management and scheduling ability, and it can also be seen that the superb organizational ability and work efficiency of the officials in Liangguo can also be seen. This is a great victory won by Liangguo on the battlefield without gunsmoke, and it is also another great victory of Zhao Xing's advanced thinking on national epidemic prevention.

This incident once again proves that as long as they are properly organized, the Han people can deal with all kinds of sudden outbreaks of epidemics, and they do not have to worry about encountering infectious diseases that will destroy the country and extinct in the future.

If you just do it here, you still can't show the demeanor of the "poisoner" who takes one step and sees three steps. Jia Xu was obviously not satisfied with just controlling the outbreak of the plague, and the reason why he wrote to Zhao Xing to report the matter was to ask Zhao Xing what to do with the growing Five Dou Mi Sect.

Since Zhang Lu led the "Five Buckets of Rice" Sect out of Hanzhong and into Guanzhong for more than a year, the number of religious believers has increased day by day, and now even in Liangguo, many people have been bewitched and have begun to believe in the "Five Buckets of Rice" religion wholeheartedly.

Zhao Xing's answer to Jia Xu was: respond carefully, combine with pulling, and control the scope. This reply coincides with Jia Xu's thoughts.

In the name of preaching, Jia Xu had people invite many respected "treacherous orders", "sacrificial wine" and "ghost officials" from the Guanzhong area (the honorific title of the Wudoumi Sect), and threw them into the areas where the plague outbreak was more serious, and asked them to pray for the local people to exorcise ghosts and eliminate their pain.

These unknown "god sticks" thought that the local people were encountering some ordinary diseases, so they set up the altar in a fake way, and began to "dance the gods" and practices, and after a toss, instead of curing the pain of the infected people, many people were infected with the plague.

At this moment, many "traitorous orders", "sacrificial wine" and "ghost officials" were frightened, crying and shouting and begging Lang Zhong to come and treat them.

According to Jia Xu's request, the Lang Zhong stationed in the plague outbreak area watched a group of "traitors", "sacrificial wines" and "ghost officials" infected with the plague fall in front of the local people in a terrifying state, and then they began to treat the remaining gods.

From the very beginning, Jia Xu had his subordinates spread rumors everywhere, preaching how the immortals of the Heavenly Master Dao were powerful and powerful, satisfying the appetite of the unsuspecting people. When these lively immortals came in vertically and went out lying down in Liangguo, Jia Xu let ** accuse and denounce the "Heavenly Master Dao" as a liar who deceives the world and steals his name, which is not credible at all.

In this way, the mass base of the Heavenly Master Dao in the Liang Kingdom completely collapsed. Jia Xu only used the trick of "attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son", and firmly isolated the spread of the Wudou Mi Sect outside the Liang country.

If the matter ends here, it can basically reflect Jia Xu's means, but it is still not enough.

Jia Xu, this old guy, is now getting more and more sophisticated, and he will also use the outbreak of the plague to help Zhao Xing achieve a large-scale "great shift".
