Invincible urban management

120, the biochemical crisis in the 16th century

At dusk in Otunba Village, the twilight is dim, the setting sun is like blood, and the wilderness, rivers and cottages are all dyed a bright red.

A brutal and bloody battle has just come to an end in the wilderness outside the village.

The two camps vying for the hegemony of Central America, after a day of fierce fighting, finally decided the final victory.

——The [-] Western Army collapsed across the board, and the [-] Eastern Army won a complete victory.

After Cortez, the commander of the Spanish expedition, was hit by a truck of [-] people and fell into a coma, and was carried out of the battlefield by his cronies, the final counterattack of the Western Army was also shattered. ** The truck was crushed into meatloaf and fled. As for the [-] Spanish infantry on the main battlefield, seeing that the defeat was doomed, they also surrendered to Commander Navaez, who was also a Spaniard.

The two main allies of Cortez, the Tlaxcala chief Masisicato, were hacked and killed on the spot in the scuffle, and the [-] Tlaxcala warriors he brought to join the battle immediately followed. The leader of the Aztec rebels, the pseudo-emperor Ace Trisiozito, relied on his strong force to persist until the end, but with the collapse of his allies, he was also unable to recover from the defeat and could only retreat. Enter Otunba village to continue resistance.

After a short respite, the two sides fought around Otunba Village for most of the day. After repeated attacks, the Eastern Army resorted to arson tactics again, throwing thousands of Molotov cocktails into the village, and quickly wiped out the A village mainly composed of wooden houses and thatched huts burned into a sea of ​​flames.

Under the desperate resistance of the guards, the pseudo-emperor Essie Trisiozito managed to break out of the encirclement, and then boarded a canoe and fled to Tenochtitlan, the capital of the empire.But of the 2000 Aztec rebels he brought to the battlefield, only less than [-] survived.

So far, the battle of Otunba has come to an end completely, and the Western Army, which seems to have many soldiers, has been dealt a devastating blow.Of the 1 Western troops before the war, only about [-] fled in all directions, and thousands of them became prisoners of war.Although both Cortes and the pseudo-emperor Essie Trisiozito escaped from the battlefield, after losing most of their vitality, they could only linger on their last breaths and had no power to turn the tables.

The price paid by the Eastern Army was only more than [-] people died in the battle, and the loss was very slight-on the battlefield of the cold weapon era, when the two sides were evenly matched, generally not many people died at all, and most of them were injured. Just flesh and blood.Generally, the large-scale killing will not really start until the winner has been divided and the loser turns around and flees, leaving the enemy's defenseless back.

Such an epic record, no matter from which angle it is evaluated, can be called brilliant.

However, the traversers who actually controlled the Eastern Army had no intention of celebrating their glorious victory at all.

Because, an unprecedented catastrophe that they have brought upon themselves has quietly befallen this troubled land.

————————————————————————

In the military camp outside Otunba Village, in a spacious tent, except for the "external unit seconded personnel" Maimaiti who had passed through the wormhole and left, the remaining five traversers were sitting cross-legged Together, everyone's complexion is extremely gray.

On the ground among them, there were scattered trinkets, all looted from the enemy, but they looked familiar—small bottles of perfume, bags of candied fruit, small bags wrapped in cotton wool and oiled paper. Porcelain, beautiful jewelry inlaid with plastic gemstones, and piles of exquisite silk printed and dyed with luxurious patterns such as peonies, roses, peacocks, golden dragons, phoenixes, etc., glowing in the setting sun.

Although it was unavoidable to be stained with some blood stains and dirt, it could not conceal the magnificence and splendor of these colorful silks and satins.

However, none of the five people present dared to touch these seized items, as if they were carrying some deadly evil curse.

Of course, in a sense, these silks and spices and so on are all cursed, and the wizard who cast the curse is sitting among them.

With their backs facing the setting sun, the five people poked here like wood carvings, maintaining a completely still posture, like a freeze frame on a movie film.Only each other's heavy breathing and gurgling cold sweat can prove that they are living people and not zombies.

This scene lasted for several minutes, as if time stopped passing, and the surrounding air was almost frozen.

"...The house is safe, the auspicious royal... Read it again, the house is safe, the auspicious royal..."

While chanting the above-mentioned "spell" in his heart, Wang Qiu quietly opened his eyes, and was extremely disappointed to find that those cursed "black magic items" were still in front of him, and it seemed that he could still see them. To the miasma representing the plague, slowly gushing out from it...

"...Can you really confirm that it is the batch of extra gifts for the King of Spain? Could it be similar products we sold before?"

Holding the last sliver of fantasy, Wang Qiu bit the bullet and took the lead to break the dull air, and asked Director Ma a question.

"... Well, it's true, the style, color and trademark are all right. Moreover, even Navaez himself confessed to us just now with a face-because there are too many witnesses, The details of this matter can't be hidden at all after being exposed..."

Director Ma's hoarse voice finally shattered the last trace of fantasy in the hearts of others, "... I can't imagine that this seemingly simple and honest guy can act so boldly. On behalf of the 'Emperor of China', we have quietly intercepted more than half of the gifts presented to the King of Spain and the Governor of Cuba—these are time bombs full of various modern germs!"

He stretched out his hand and grabbed a silk scarf with a few strands of mildew on the edge, and sighed helplessly, "... Then, with Cortez's counterattack, the change of hands in Port of Veracruz, these stuffed things , fell into the hands of Cortez's subordinates, and was unpacked and divided up. Then, these spoils were carried by Cortez's team and traveled all over half of the Mexican Valley—by the way It also spreads the germs!"

After saying this, Comrade Director went limp as if out of strength, and by the way, he threw away the silk scarf as if it were something dirty, "...the Pandora's box that was intended to harm the European colonists has now been smashed. It fell under our own feet - what kind of thing is this?!"

There was silence, and there was no sound.The whole tent was once again plunged into a deathly atmosphere.

The eyebrows and the corners of the mouth of every traveler twitched slightly, they all understood what this so-called "Pandora's Box" really meant!A few of them thought their hearts had stopped beating, and their limbs were completely out of control, so they could only sit upright in a daze.

——At the Port of Veracruz, in order to weaken the Spanish colonists’ vitality to the greatest extent and physically destroy their ability to invade the Americas, Director Ma planned a despicable, shameless, anti-human and anti-civilization to the extreme "War against European germs" - entrusted a forged "Chinese Emperor's imperial decree" and a batch of "Gifts from the Chinese Emperor", mainly silk, spices and other oriental specialties, to Navay who was kept in the dark Commander, let him be transported back to the rear in a galleon, and dedicated to Governor Velazquez of Cuba and King Carlos of Spain.

In fact, these so-called "gifts from the Chinese emperor" are actually "bacteriological warfare weapons dedicated to Europe" obtained by Director Ma from the modern infectious disease hospital-silk and porcelain are coated with various types of influenza The source of the disease is the highly contagious Mycobacterium tuberculosis mixed in the tea and candied fruit, and the cotton used to wrap each piece of porcelain is repeatedly soaked in the culture fluid of various severe infectious diseases such as typhoid, cholera, and plague. Pass.

In particular, the fake "Imperial Decree of Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty" that was heavily sealed in a brass box contained a real virus weapon—according to Director Ma's vague description afterwards, it seemed to be the anthrax powder that once caused panic in the United States. And some other equally powerful "biological additives"...

According to Director Ma's prediction, these seemingly gorgeous gifts, after arriving in Europe across the ocean, will spread countless highly drug-resistant infectious diseases that do not exist in this era, bringing endless benefits to the humans who get them Disaster - just like the legendary Pandora's box!

But the problem is that Narvaez, as a postman, became greedy and embezzled some of the added gifts, so that these dangerous "time bombs" could not be completely sent away.Then, Cortez snatched these treasure-like disasters from Narvaez and distributed them to his allies and subordinates...thus spreading the source of these deadly plagues all over the country at once. Mexico!

In real history, smallpox and hemorrhagic fever alone reduced the number of Central American Indians from 1500 million to 300 million.And in this time and space, their weak and weak immune systems will face typhoid fever, cholera, tuberculosis... and the notorious black death at the same time!

"...In other words, the land under our feet is about to erupt into a biochemical crisis in the 16th century?!"

After a while, Comrade Wen Desi, the first traverser who is a half-landlord, finally regained some anger from his stupor, then glared at Director Ma with blazing eyes, almost gnashing his teeth, and said word for word, "... At least millions of Indians will die of disease, cities will be turned into ruins, fields will be turned into wilderness, and roads will be filled with corpses, and we are the umbrella company that caused this biochemical crisis?!"

"...almost! But it's not about to erupt soon, but a biochemical crisis has already begun—the plague has already spread without our knowing, and it's too late for early isolation! And in the current war Under the current state, it is difficult to come up with any effective epidemic prevention measures."

As if he didn't notice the anger in Wenders' chest, Director Ma just waved his hand very tiredly, and said in a low voice, "...from Puerto Veracruz, Tlaxcala, Cholula, and then to A The city of Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Ztec Empire, Cortez's expedition team and his allies, have brought our bacterial weapons to most of the Mexican civilized world, and brought plagues and patients to this place. many places.

Moreover, some infected people have already passed the incubation period and started to get sick—according to the interrogation of the Spanish prisoners, some of them have fallen ill in recent days, and some patients had a high fever, and their eyes were red and swollen as if they had a fever. Red charcoal.There are also some patients who are reluctantly marching with crutches while pulling feces into their pants, which is equivalent to spreading various germs along the way..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but patted his chest with lingering fear, "...Hey, fortunately, the brass box containing the fake imperial decree was finally sent to Spain, otherwise...even in our time and space, anthrax virus There is also no specific vaccine available..."

There was another depressing and hopeless silence - after understanding the current desperate situation, Wen Desi didn't even have the strength to get angry.

This situation lasted for a full three minutes, and it was Wang Qiu who spoke first again.

"...Since the epidemic has spread, and the disease resistance of Native Americans is probably far inferior to that of Europeans...then what should we do?"

"... What should we do? Now we have to race against time as fast as possible to rush antibiotics and vaccines from the modern world. Otherwise, we may end up with a deserted America. As for the rest ..."

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Director Ma's mouth, "...it seems that the only thing left is to pray for God's blessing!"

Hearing such irresponsible words, the veins on everyone's foreheads jumped wildly, and it seemed as if tens of thousands of alpacas ran past majesticly in their hearts... However, given the past reputation of the Prince Ma, the feelings in their hearts Thousands of words finally converged into one sentence: Xiangrui Yumian ah ah ah ah! ! !
