Jinghua Palace.
The old emperor Xie Tianyao looked at the civil and military officials of the dynasty with a cold expression.
At this time, these people were having a heated discussion.
Because the plague was raging in Dunhuang and Changzhou, the Huns were once again ready to take advantage of this opportunity to plunder the Central Plains. The Qiang people have also repeatedly invaded the Liaodong border. Recently, they even took advantage of your illness to kill you, attacking several towns.
The civil and military officials of the Longyan Dynasty.
We are discussing how to retreat from the enemy.
"Your Majesty, I believe that since the plague is raging and the Qiang people are watching with eager eyes, Long Yan should show the magnanimity of a great nation. If we don't care about it, we can defeat the enemy by making peace with him!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Shangyuan Festival is approaching, and it is not appropriate for Long Yan to go on an expedition!"
"Your Majesty..."
A group of people talking all over the place, all with one goal in mind.
Can't fight!
Want to get married!
Once there's a war, what's the point? The treasury of the Longyan Dynasty is empty, and the feudal kings are doing their own affairs. Isn't fighting a matter for these feudal kings? Who is willing to go to war with their own family wealth if they can just survive? And this class of scholar-bureaucrats also thinks the same way.
If we can't fight, we won't fight. The vast land is vast and rich, but what can we do if we give those barbarians a few villages and towns?
How about we spend the New Year happily first?
not to mention……
Even you can't beat me!
"waste!"
The old emperor couldn't help but angrily shouted: "You're a bunch of trash, what do I need from you guys with wine bags and rice bags? They're just barbarians, they offend me, Long Yan, and you actually want to make peace? Make peace!"
A group of people, as silent as a cicada.
No one dared to speak.
The old emperor lamented in his heart.
Suddenly, he thought of the Yinzhou army that had just conquered the Western Regions. If his dynasty could have more such armies, why worry about barbarian intrusion?
He knows it too.
The plague at this time became the trigger of the war. The most important thing at the moment is to quell the plague. He asked coldly: "Who is willing to go to Dunhuang to help Dunhuang and quell the plague?"
He has come up with a throne!
But still no one wants to go!
All the civil and military princes of the court lowered their heads, for fear that the emperor would notice them.
Xie Tianyao looked at Prince Xie Fang: "How is Prince?"
Xie Fang's face changed drastically, and his legs were so frightened that he weakened: "Father, father... I am willing to lead the troops to fight against the Qiang people! In order to achieve unparalleled achievements!"
Xie Tianyao smiled coldly, and then looked at the third prince.
The third prince Xie Ling also shuddered: "Father, I believe that the plague is like an evil spirit, and the right way to prevent it is to prevent its spread. Only by sealing the city and fending for itself can the dynasty be safe! I don't think so. Understand medical skills, here goes, here goes..."
All the civil and military officials sneered in their hearts.
To fend for itself?
A good one will fend for itself!
There are nearly one million people in Dunhuang and Changzhou! Normally, Xie Ling was courteous and courteous, and seemed to have the world at his heart. But when things really happened, it became clear that this son was as vicious as his brother, the crown prince.
"Hehehehe..."
The old emperor smiled and shook his head: "What about you?"
"what about you?"
"And what about you?"
He stood up angrily: "If I were to make a king, no one would dare to go there!"
at this time.
"Report----"
"Report----"
"Your Majesty, there is news from Dunhuang that 90,000 Yinzhou troops arrived in Dunhuang yesterday and began to set up camp to treat the refugees!"
"What?"
Throughout the palace, everyone had different expressions.
The Yinzhou Army actually went to Dunhuang without taking a detour? And he also helped treat patients! What on earth are the Lius and their sons thinking!
Everyone looked at each other.
Don't they know that this is a trap set by Chen Ping for them?
However, after hearing the news, Xie Tianyao laughed coldly: "There is no one like Liu Zhizhou in the whole world! Good, good! No matter what the outcome is, I will reward you heavily!"
This Liu Zhizhou can really surprise him every time.
"Everyone get out of here!"
…
Let’s look at Dunhuang again.
Chang Shuwen was in the watchtower, watching the Yinzhou Army start to set up camp, and he was a little surprised.
"Liu Zhizhou really wants to rescue Dunhuang?"
"But……"
This malaria is quite terrifying to be infected with! Malaria is transmitted through mosquito bites and blood containing pathogenic parasites.
Therefore, malaria has been mostly found in Africa since ancient times because there are too many bugs there...
In the ancient sanitary environment, all kinds of bugs emerged in endlessly and were difficult to guard against. Especially now that the Yinzhou Army is stationed in the wild, this is equivalent to completely exposing themselves to the source of infection.
Is this Liu Zhizhou really not afraid of death at all?
Chang Shuwen was shocked.
He also wanted to know how the world-famous Liu Zhizhou wanted to deal with malaria! He knew that Liu Zheng started to treat the refugees outside the city because he was doing it for his own benefit. Could it be that he could really succeed and then welcome him to Dunhuang himself?
"Sir, the Yinzhou Army has set up camp!"
"Sir, the Yinzhou Army has begun to collect patients!"
"Sir, the Yinzhou Army over there smells so bad..."
"Smelly?"
Chang Shuwen frowned. Could it be that Liu Zhizhou really mastered the method of dealing with malaria?
"Continue investigating!"
"yes!"
…
Liu Zheng's Yinzhou Army had never rested since they set up camp outside the city.
There are too many patients!
Looking at the more than 20,000 refugees, Liu Zheng felt a pain in his heart. While the Yinzhou Army was setting up camp, serious patients had already died during the period.
Howls arose.
living hell!
In the face of the plague, even the noble families who escaped from Changzhou were completely helpless. In the face of life and death, everyone is equal.
"Everyone, take action! Focus on treating patients with fever first, followed by those with chills! Measure the medicine and take it according to each person's weight!"
Liu Zheng immediately took command of the scene.
"yes!"
Qin Changfeng, Jiang Xuan, Pei Qianyun, and other generals immediately took orders.
The mobility of the 90,000 Yinzhou Army is still very strong.
At first, these refugee patients were resistant to the smelly Artemisia annua juice. But after all, good medicine tastes bitter, and traditional Chinese medicine is not that good... So, when they heard that it could effectively deal with malaria, these people who thought they were going to die did not hesitate to pick it up and drink it. In the end, they were afraid that I didn’t drink enough, so I asked if there was any…
Seeing this group of people still obeying the greetings, Liu Zheng was relieved.
only.
Although the one thousand men of the Yinzhou Army survived through this method, the situation he is facing now is different. Malaria can recur...
Artemisinin is not a panacea.
He must be fully prepared.
as expected.
In the Yinzhou Army, just after dinner, at night, hundreds of homeless patients in the camp died of the disease! After Liu Zheng got the news, he jumped out of bed instantly and came to the refugee camp with a solemn expression.
At this time, the refugees had habitually thrown these corpses into the water.
Liu Zheng's expression changed: "Stop!"
