Chapter 95 Something Worse Than Cholera

() What is more terrible than cholera?It is a hidden danger from the inside. The chairman said that the fortress is the easiest to break through from the inside!

"Food, quilts, gunpowder, shells, bacon, salted fish, vegetable oil, oil, medicine, medicine, medicine, medicine! Medicine again!" Zheng Anhua looked at the labels on each of the baggage carts. , The vehicles carrying medicines accounted for more than [-]%!

"Brother Zheng, what are you looking at?" It was Bao Zhongchen, the head of the Law Enforcement Department, who rode his horse, and came with him, the investigation room who never knew what his eyes were looking at. Niu Qiandao, the principal.Behind them are hundreds of subordinates.

Seeing these two, Zheng Anhua felt a little uncomfortable all over his body, his back felt chilly, and quickly put his helmet on, "My lords, it's nothing, I'm just checking if the brothers in the baggage team are okay Help."

From the moment they boarded the ship, these two guys with a reputation in the South China Army brought a large number of people on board and went south with the army. What did they come for?

Could it be that?

Zheng Anhua suddenly felt a little dizzy. He recalled the rumors circulating in the army a few days ago: Wang Bao arrived at the border of Siam and Chenla, wantonly accepted the rebels, expanded his strength, and prepared to stand on his own in the northern Siam and Chenla border areas. .

With so many personnel from the Statistics Office and Law Enforcement Office going north with the army, are they really going to attack Wang Bao?

That's not right, is it? !If you want to arrest and quell the chaos, you only need the troops to accompany them. Why do you have to have a lot of doctors from Huimin Pharmacy?Are there so many medicines in the accompanying luggage?Moreover, before departure, a large number of proprietary medicines were forcibly stuffed into everyone's backpacks, "These medicines must not be lost. Even if you lose the knife and gun, the lord will not blame you, but these medicines are not It can be lost! This is your life guarantee!"

Two days later, the army crossed Ayutthaya and reached the outskirts of Nakhon Ratchasima.

"Is this the camp of our South China Army?" Zheng Anhua, Niu Qiandao, Bao Zhongchen and the ordinary soldiers of the South China Army all exclaimed.

With Nakhon Ratchasima as the core, within a radius of more than ten miles, the flags of the South China Army are flying everywhere.The sound of people shouting and neighing resounded through the sky.

However, a human cry is a helpless cry of pain in the face of a relative's illness, and a horse neighs is a war horse's retention of the dying life of its master.In the past, the phoenix flag fluttered against the wind on the battlefield, causing the enemy troops to retreat and panic, fluttering feebly in the hot wind.

The Guard Front Battalion and the Guard Middle Battalion guarded a large number of supplies, as well as the large and small artillery of the artillery division, which entered Nakhon Ratchasima.

Along the way, it seemed like a ghost in the world.

The outer camps of the Phoenix Camp along the way, that is, the camps of those tribal soldiers, were scattered in the open space outside the city, and they were tied up in clusters according to different tribes. In the camp, no garbage pits, drains, or toilets have been dug. Sewage and filth are all over the ground. Human excrement and horse urine are piled up beside the shacks built with vegetation and branches. Above the densely packed shacks, swarms of flies Flying hummingly.From time to time, some people staggered out of the shack, supported their weak bodies with crude knives and guns, and defecated in a slightly wide place.Several people carried a body and walked through the hut. The body was still moving slightly, and the syllables were still not clear, but it was still carried to a remote place, and it was thrown away casually, as if it was not lost. A life, but an extremely horrible, filthy thing.

The camps of those Siamese surrendered soldiers were slightly better. After all, they were once the country's administrative army and had more formal camp settings and hygiene requirements.However, even so, more or less sick numbers can be seen in the Siamese drop barracks.

On the side of the two-story camp, there are new tombs rolling up and down, silently telling people what happened here.

People forcibly held back the nausea in their hearts and drove into the city of Korat at a fast pace.

After bursts of gunfire, the "Wang" flag that had been flying in the city for a long time fell quietly, and was replaced by a larger "Li" flag.The big flag of one foot two feet, the yellow flame border, the white moonlight on the red background, and a big Li character, dazzled the eyes of the people in the camps everywhere.

"Wang Bao!" Sitting behind the handsome table, Shou Han looked at Peng Kun and A Jin, the two camp officers of the Phoenix Battalion, his face sank like water. "Why don't you come to see me?"

Peng Kun and Ajin glanced at each other, "My lord, Commander Wang has also contracted the disease and is running a fever in the back hall. I was afraid that his bad luck might contaminate the lord's body, so I didn't let him come out to meet the lord."

Regarding the outbreak of the epidemic in the Phoenix Camp, Shou Han had already learned about it in the military newspaper, but he did not expect that the situation was so serious.Even Wang Bao, the commander-in-chief of the First Route Army, fell ill!

"Two battalion officers, I don't know what kind of disease is prevalent in the camp? What is the cause? What are the symptoms?" Wang Tingqi from Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau, as the person in charge of medicine and health, also came with him this time. The journey of travel and dust really made the old man a little tired, but, ignoring his rest, he immediately began to ask about the situation within his business scope.

Seeing Wang Tingqi, Ah Jin immediately fell to his knees and kowtowed, "Mr. Wang! Mr. Wang! Things will be easy now that you are here! I hope you will save Ah Jin's brothers this time!"

This epidemic was discovered when Wang Bao ended the battle of Surin Mansion and sent his troops to the south.At first, it was found among the tribal soldiers that there were people with vomiting and diarrhea, and the military commanders at all levels didn't pay attention to it. They just thought it was because they didn't pay attention to their diet. The soldiers ate a little too much and felt uncomfortable.However, soon after, more and more people had such symptoms, and many people had diarrhea as many as ten or twenty times a day; the excretion was like water, and the better ones were like rice porridge.

The scope of the disease also spread from the tribal barracks to the Siamese soldiers and the Phoenix camp.Within a few days, the entire army had been found sick, and no one was spared. In the tribal barracks where they were first discovered, dozens of people had died.

Wang Bao knew something was wrong.At this time, if the Siamese find out, the Northern Route Army may be exhausted, and no horse will be able to return home.Therefore, while inspecting the battalions to comfort the wounded, he ordered the troops to go south quickly to compress the Siamese army as much as possible.At the same time, build up momentum to prevent the Siamese from counterattacking after discovering the actual situation of the Northern Army.Wang Bao was relieved when he saw the envoy sent by Siam claiming to have sent someone to Hejing to seek peace and begged the army not to go south for the time being, but at this time, he himself fell ill.

"What's the situation in each battalion right now?" After listening to the situation reports from A Jin and Peng Kun, Shou Han looked a little better. He saw Niu Qiandao, Bao Zhongchen, Zheng Anhua and others standing there outside the door, using He nodded to him with extremely subtle movements, and then asked the two of them.

"My lord, less than [-]% of the patients in my Phoenix camp are less sick. It's all because our camp strictly enforces the lord's regulations. Camping, diet, and camping are all in place, so there are fewer patients. Siam Soldiers account for more than [-]% and less than half, and tribal soldiers account for between [-]% and [-]%.”

so much?Shou Han was startled by the number of patients. With such a proportion of patients, if the worst plan is followed, the Northern Route Army can cancel its organizational system, and the Phoenix Camp can cancel its designation.

In the past few years, Shou Han can be regarded as killing the Quartet. He has seen many scenes of blood flowing into rivers, and he has ordered the death of countless people. However, like this, tens of thousands of people will be infected at once, and the infection will be life-threatening. The outbreak of the disease is even more terrifying than being on the battlefield.

"My lord, I want to visit each camp. Although I have a general direction right now, I have to look at the symptoms of the patients before I can make a final conclusion."

"It's a matter of human life, so it's right for Mr. to do this. A Jin!" Shou Han called over to A Jin, "Accompany Mr. Wang to look around, so that he can determine what kind of disease those sick patients are suffering from! Can you Protect Mr. Wang thoroughly! He saved your life and that of your family!"

"The wealth and life under the bid are bestowed by the lord and Mr. Wang, so naturally I dare not be unsatisfied!"

Accompanied by Ah Jin, Wang Tingqi took a group of doctors to various places to check the epidemic situation.

"Peng Kun! Pass the order for me! Those who are above the officer of the Phoenix Battalion, above the Chief of the Artillery Team, and above 500 Siamese soldiers, I will summon them in the lobby in an hour's time!"

Peng Kun bowed his head and took the order to leave.

"My lord, the front and middle battalions of the guards under the bid have taken over the city defense of Nakhon Ratchasima, and have deployed additional defenses for the treasury, arsenal, granary, baggage, gunpowder, etc." Zheng Anhua clasped his fists and saluted, and reported to the guard prove one's own actions.

"My lord, the manpower has been marked, and they have entered each battalion of the Phoenix Battalion, looking for officers at all levels to question and find out the situation." Bao Zhongchen's law enforcement department is also progressing well.

"My lord, it seems that the Siamese soldiers and the tribal soldiers are a little unstable! In several camps, some people joined forces in private, intending to use Wang Bao as a call to stand on their own hills in this area. There are about [-] people involved, seven a camp."

After listening to Niu Qiandao's report, Zheng Anhua couldn't help being shocked, but it turned out that the private rumors were also based!I don't know if Wang Bao can escape this disaster this time?

"Are there any officers from our army involved?" Shouhan's voice was very cold, so cold that it made people feel frightened.

"According to the information I have learned so far, no! It's just that some new attached troops and surrendered troops are connected in series below. It involves only some old Siamese officers and tribal leaders." Niu Qiandao replied in a low voice.

"Anhua, you order the gunner to take over the artillery team of the Phoenix Battalion immediately, and the gunners who are not sick will be under the command of the gunner."

"When Shaoqing court attends, order the convoy team to go to the Phoenix Camp to distribute medicine and rewards. By the way, disarm them. Anhua, you lead people to arrange near the commander's mansion. If there is any bad situation, shoot and kill! Heizi, Lao Niu, you two, stay by my side, if there is any abnormal movement during court attendance, take it down immediately!"

After Wen Yan comforted the sick general Wang Bao and asked him about his thoughts, Shou Han could clearly confirm that Wang Bao himself had no dissenting intentions!

Three trumpets sounded, and the door of the commander-in-chief's mansion opened wide.

From the temporary gate to the gate of the commander's mansion, there are hundreds of spearmen lined up on both sides, holding six long spears in their hands, wearing plate armor, wearing a new steel eight-petal hat and helmet, and the feathers on their heads are proud. standing upright.

Behind the spearman, not far away is a flag, the battalion flags, the officer's recognition flag, and the flying dragon flag, flying tiger flag, flying tiger flag, flying leopard flag, etc., which serve as guards of honor, etc. The officers who came to the court to attend the ceremony were suddenly shocked.

In front of the gate of the commander-in-chief's mansion, two artillery forts were built with sandbags. Two large French machines were placed there. Wearing the same eight-petal hat and helmet, with his right hand on his hip, he is full of air.

Along the gate of the commander's mansion, hundreds of firecrackers stood in two tiers on the left and right sides, holding firecrackers in their right hands, and medicine boxes made of ocher red buffalo leather were hung on a palm-wide belt around their waists.People with discerning eyes peeked out, the muzzle cap was pulled out, and the tap on the trigger was lifted, it could be seen that the gun was ready to fire at any time.

Inside the gate of the commander-in-chief's mansion, there were two hundred soldiers with swords and shields standing in the courtyard, holding shields in their left hands and holding knives in their right hands, staring at the officers who filed in.

The officials and assistants of the Phoenix Battalion didn't care at all, originally!During the period when I came to see the lord, I fought well, and the lord must give me some rewards.However, the leaders of those Siamese soldiers who surrendered were sympathetic.There was also the one who had some small problems in his heart, his legs trembled and his whole body trembled.

Wang Bao, who was sick, insisted on performing the ceremony of attending the court, struggled to get up from the hospital bed, and with the help of Peng Kun, A Jin and others, performed the ritual of kneeling and prostrating three times, and the guards did not allow him to salute again. He ordered someone to build a bamboo bed, let Wang Bao lean on it, and saluted in the hall.

The officers of the Phoenix Battalion stepped forward one by one according to their respective organizational systems, and saluted their commander in chief.Instead of Wang Bao, Peng Kun and A Jin introduced to Shou Han the deeds and military exploits of these people during the expedition.

After seeing them, they stood on both sides in different groups, and only waited for the Siamese soldiers behind to salute before offering rewards.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the gate.

It was Wang Tingqi who hurried back from outside the city!

Regardless of the strict access control in front of the handsome mansion, he whipped the Yunnan horse under his crotch and ran straight to the steps of the gate before he could barely stop. With the support of several musketeers on duty, he walked from Immediately staggered and jumped off, ran all the way, and came straight to the lobby, which made the Siamese officers who were standing in the courtyard, waiting to participate, bewildered. What happened to this old man?

"My lord! Yes!...Yes, it's cholera!"

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the courtyard!

Almost all of them were full of fear.

"Pass the lord's military order! Attention all battalions! [-]. All patients and suspected patients should be isolated and treated immediately, and the items used by them should be disinfected! [-]. Strengthen drinking water disinfection and food management! Eating raw water and cold food is prohibited Food! [-]. Each battalion takes the team as a unit, and re-campaigns. All camping shacks must be separated by at least one foot, and drainage ditches and toilets must be dug. Anyone who defecates anywhere will be punished immediately! Officers who fail to supervise and organize themselves will be punished with forty sticks! The officers will be dismissed!"

Ask for points, ask for receipts, ask for praise, ask for recommendations, ask for comments, and ask for rewards.
