plague!
This moment made Xiao Qian and Niu Chaofeng of Sakhalin panic.
What is plague?
Xiao Qian didn't know.
But he knew that in Longyan, the plague was nothing at all... Even Longyan and Liangzhou already had the best way to deal with the plague!
But the plague...
They have really never encountered it before!
"General, three more died..."
"General! Even the five here are dying!"
"General..."
Listening to the reports from subordinates, almost the entire military camp was in a hurry.
A few will die in a while...
A few more will be infected in a while!
this……
These military doctors accompanying the army are completely insufficient!
Tens of thousands of troops...
This is an army of tens of thousands!
Xiao Qian suddenly panicked.
"Kill!"
"Start killing those rats!"
He finally realized that this plague was spread through rats! However, this mouse is such a slippery animal, and it is running around in the woods on this island. Can you kill it if you want to?
Unless you dig out three feet of Sakhalin Island!
Otherwise, as long as these mice exist, the virus will still exist!
What they don't know is...
plague.
It is a severe infectious disease mainly transmitted by rat fleas.
Plague is highly contagious and has a high fatality rate. If left untreated, the fatality rate can be as high as 30%-60%.
The plague also has another name, and that is the Black Death. This thing took away the lives of 20 million people in Europe in the Middle Ages!
This number was almost one-third of the total population of Europe at that time!
At present, no specific medicine against plague has been developed. Once the plague virus spreads, the newly developed Liaodong may even become a dead place!
It can be seen how vicious Ushakov is in his heart when he uses this move!
"These bastards actually use such despicable methods!"
Xiao Qian cursed angrily, but other than scolding people to vent his anger, he couldn't do anything useful.
We can only continue to maintain the order of the scene. On the one hand, people start to isolate, and on the other hand, people start to kill the rats!
but……
I killed a lot of rats...
But what about lice?
What about other animals?
Suddenly, the atmosphere in Sakhalin fell into despair.
People are getting infected every day.
People die every day.
Three more days have passed since the plague was discovered. During these three days, nearly 3,000 soldiers fell ill.
What's even more serious is that because there was no timely treatment, more than 300 of the soldiers who first fell ill have died in this plague...
All of this happened so unexpectedly and it was so overwhelming.
People were howling everywhere.
People are desperate everywhere, and people are dying everywhere.
The death toll continues to rise.
In just six days, nearly 10,000 people have been infected by the plague, and the number of infected people is still increasing.
However, for Xiao Qian, it is not all bad news these days. At least, there is no movement from Tsarist Russia now.
After a large number of Longyan soldiers were infected on Sakhalin Island, Tsarist Russia's exploratory attack also stopped.
The coast is rare without shelling.
The rare leisure time did not allow Xiao Qian to relax, because he knew that Tsarist Russia had not given up the attack on Sakhalin Island. It is estimated that these idiots were waiting for them all to be defeated by the plague before landing on the island to pick up ready-made items. .
…
Ushakov had indeed stayed on his battleship, using a telescope to look at everything on Sakhalin Island.
That's right.
It was he who sent people to spread the plague to Sakhalin Island...
This is the deadly weapon that Tsarist Russia has prepared long ago!
As long as the virus that once caused tens of millions of deaths in Europe was taken out, there would be no possibility of turning the tide on Sakhalin!
vicious.
Indeed vicious.
But for Ushakov, as long as it is war, there is no justice.
As long as there is no justice, what is humanity?
Aren’t enough people dying on the battlefield?
It's just one big political game, nothing more.
Total annihilation.
What is the difference between death from a virus?
"Are the protective suits ready?"
Looking at Long Yan jumping up and down, he had already predicted that these Long Yan people would never survive a month.
One month!
He can completely capture Sakhalin!
It is even possible that this plague will enter Dragon Flame!
By that time...
What is a small Sakhalin Island? It is even possible that the entire Longyan will be severely trampled under their feet by Tsarist Russia!
Virus war.
Ushakov's first virus war, he felt, would be successful.
How could Long Yan, who was technologically backward, cope with such a virus war?
"Marshal, you're ready!"
The person behind replied.
Ushakov smiled and nodded.
…
"There's still no news about the people we sent!"
Xiao Qian asked anxiously.
As early as three days ago, Xiao Qian had sent people to Liangzhou to ask for help, but it had been three days and there was still no news!
"Report to the general! Wang Shenjun is back!"
Just when Xiao Qian was anxious, his soldiers shouted.
Hearing this voice, Xiao Qian immediately became energetic and rushed out regardless.
He is still very nervous now:
Liu Zheng handed over Liaodong to him, but he ended up like this. How should he explain to Liu Zheng?
And just when he had already thought of an excuse to apologize, he suddenly realized that the crowd coming to support was a bit strange.
There were more than twenty people in the group, all dressed in white, and even their faces were covered with white cloth.
What's going on...
Could it be that there was some kind of funeral in Liangzhou?
"May I ask, who is Liu Shoufu?"
Xiao Qian asked.
After Xiao Qian finished speaking, the leader stood up.
"General, Liu Shoufu is no longer in Liangzhou, but please rest assured, general, we are from the Liangzhou Medical Research Institute. We can control this plague."
Although Liu Zheng himself was not seen, Xiao Qian was somewhat relieved to hear that they were from Liangzhou.
Although he was given a reassurance, Xiao Qian still had doubts.
"I dare to ask, how are you guys dressed? Could it be that something unfortunate happened in Liangzhou?"
Xiao Qian's voice became softer. He knew it was impolite to ask, but he was really worried.
Nowadays, Liangzhou is the most important area of Long Yan; Liu Zheng is the most important person in Long Yan. Once something happens to these two, the whole of Long Yan will be affected.
Xiao Qian's look almost made these people laugh, but they also understood that after all, what they were wearing were the latest products from Long Yan. It was normal for Xiao Qian not to know.
"General, don't worry, everything is fine in Liangzhou..."
"Then this one dressed in white..."
"This is protective clothing, specifically designed to deal with infectious diseases such as plague."
"Then the white cloth on the face..."
"This, called a mask, can also greatly reduce the infection rate of plague. This time, we have brought a lot of supplies. As long as the soldiers cooperate properly, the crisis will be lifted soon."
This strange team indeed attracted a lot of attention in the army.
That's right.
This is the medical research institute that Liu Zheng had prepared behind Liangzhou.
In fact, what many people don't know is that Liu Zheng has been taking precautions against the virus.
He knows that with the current global medical level, it is very difficult to deal with a plague, let alone the Black Death, Ebola and the like... Facts have proved that this kind of situation has not happened in history. Pass. The Black Death killed countless people in Europe and directly affected the war situation in Europe.
Medical Research Institute.
Not only to guard against various emergencies of viruses, but also to study all directions of human medicine.
This is something Liu Zheng invested heavily in.
But it has always been kept secret and has not been announced to the world.
Now, this is the first time they have appeared. They took the train and appeared here in a few days!
All of a sudden, it attracted the attention of many people.
"Um."
Xiao Qian nodded, he believed deeply in the words of these medical staff.
After all, these are all from Liangzhou, Liangzhou, which is Liu Zheng's territory. Back then, Liu Zheng personally suppressed the highly contagious malaria!
"General, take people to get the supplies." Liu An from the medical center said.
"Um."
Although Xiao Qian is a general, at this moment, he is just a soldier. He will fully cooperate with the work of medical staff!
The healthy soldiers moved all the boxes on the dock to the center of the island, and then opened the boxes. People found that they were filled with gauze and cotton!
"this……"
Looking at these "materials", Xiao Qian looked puzzled.
"General, the plague is coming quickly, and we in Liangzhou don't have much emergency reserves at all, so we brought all the raw materials here." Liu An explained.
"But, we don't have many tailors in the army. I'm afraid..."
"General, don't worry. The method of making a mask is very simple. Fold a piece of gauze, line it with a piece of cotton wool in the middle, and then cut the two ends to make straps. This is a mask. Plague is spread through droplets, and masks , cutting off the transmission route, the plague can naturally be controlled."
"Then this protective suit..."
"Protective clothing does not need that much. Only people who have been in contact with seriously ill patients for a long time will need it." Liu An explained.
Although Liu An has already explained it to Xiao Qian, Xiao Qian, who only knows how to lead troops to fight, has no ability to understand these detailed things. Now, he is one head and two big.
Soon, epidemic prevention work began.
After everyone has been issued masks, the quarantine will begin.
Under Liu An's command, Sakhalin Island was divided into five districts. Each district was presided over by a medical specialist from Liangzhou; it was equipped with an assistant, three medical students, and a large number of soldiers. assist!
In addition to these, there are also emergency teams, which are divided into many positions such as diagnosis, disinfection, burial, and guard duty.
Inspectors check the virus infection status one by one every day. Once they find that a sergeant is infected with plague, they will immediately be sent to a temporary epidemic prevention military camp for isolation.
Temporary military camps will be disinfected with raw sulfur and carbolic acid, greatly improving safety.
This is just primary prevention and control. After primary prevention and control, graded admission and treatment will begin.
According to the condition of the patients, Liu An divided the hospitals into epidemic hospitals, mild hospitals, suspected hospitals and epidemic prevention and treatment offices. Each hospital has medical officers, general affairs, pharmacists, nurses, inspectors and other positions. . It not only provides treatment for patients with different conditions, but also avoids mutual infection between them.
Because this is an army, the soldiers have strong execution capabilities. Under this scientific prevention and control, the plague was quickly controlled.
The death toll continues to decline. When the epidemic prevention mechanism was established, the daily death toll was about 300, but just one week later, the death toll was zero.
Xiao Qian was dumbfounded.
He had thought that Liangzhou was very strong.
but……
So powerful?
