Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Fade Chen quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yuan said: "Didn't you just say that this girl was captured by our soldiers? I just asked the commander to seal the gate of the city and post a notice that the troops must do all these things. I am worried that the epidemic will spread in this way." Get better!"

Fade Chen said: "I have already let them stay in a separate room. I know that officer quite well. Although he is lecherous, he still takes orders seriously."

Lin Yuan said, "That's good."

At this time, Huang Mingtao had already given the girl an injection of antipyretics and intravenous injection of gentamicin, and someone had injected Chen Fei with the vaccine, and took her to a separate room for isolation and observation.

According to the names provided by Fade Chen, Lin Yuan isolated the officers and those who arrested the girls, vaccinated them, and isolated their close contacts.

Another day later, on March 3th, the Beijing ship brought in more disinfection equipment and medical equipment by sea. Huang Mingtao extracted Xia Zi's blood and carried out bacterial culture. From it, Yersinia pestis was isolated, thus confirming the The disease she was suffering from was the plague. After treatment with antibiotics, the girl's condition has basically stabilized and there is no tendency to deteriorate.

Lin Yuan learned from Huang Mingtao that the isolation period would be at least fifteen days, which made Lin Yuan very anxious. After all, the battle on the front line was quite tense, and he was waiting for Chen Fei to recruit recruits in Panjin.

There is another point that makes Lin Yuan very worried, that is, he is worried that the Japanese army in Shenyang will take the opportunity to attack the Dingwu army, but what he did not expect is that the Japanese army did not attack.The reason was precisely because of Lin Yuan's strategic deception. After the Qing government announced the news of Lin Yuan's death, they sent representatives to express their intention to restart the peace talks. People scolded the Qing court for treachery.

However, the Qing court said: restarting the peace talks is not an official statement. On the contrary, when Lin Yuan was the chief negotiator, it was the official statement that the war had begun. Although Lin Yuan died, the two countries were still at war. .

Such a small word game caused the Japanese army to lose the opportunity on the battlefield. They wanted Dashanyan to command the army to recapture the Liaohe River. Crossing the river from the upper reaches of the Liao River, Xinmin was stationed. In this way, if the Japanese army attacked the Dingwu Army, it was very likely that they would be caught in a double attack. Therefore, the Japanese army did not take the initiative to attack the Dingwu Army.

At this time in Shenyang, Da Shanyan was thinking about Shenyang's defensive operations. At this time, the staff officer put a telegram in front of him, which read: "Plague broke out in Panjin behind the Qing army, and all departments are expected to prevent it."

Da Shanyan asked in surprise, "Is there a plague in winter?"

The staff officer smiled and said, "General, we created this plague."

Da Shanyan dropped the pen in his hand to the ground in surprise, and said, "How is this possible?"

The staff officer said: "Dr. Shi Yuan is waiting for your call outside, and he will answer all your doubts." Da Shanyan hurriedly said: "Let him in quickly."

The staff officer agreed to go out, and after a while, the door opened and a young officer walked in.

The officer saluted with a "snap" and said, "Hello, General, my name is Ishihara Hideyoshi, and I am the Major of the First Division's Supplies."

Da Shanyan nodded and said, "What does the plague behind the Qing army have to do with you?"

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "General, before I answer your doubts, please allow me to introduce myself. I graduated from Tokyo Imperial University, specializing in infectious diseases. Later, I joined the army and became a samurai of His Majesty the Emperor. General, do you think that apart from us Other than the army of the Great Japanese Empire, who is the most powerful army in the world in history?"

Da Shanyan was very happy when he heard that the Japanese army was the most powerful in the world, so he smiled and said: "There are different opinions on this question. Since you asked it, it means that you have your own unique views on this question, or Tell me."

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "Thank you, General. In fact, the most powerful army in history is not the army of humans, but the army of the Kingdom of Disease. In Europe in the Middle Ages, the Black Death once killed 400 million people. At the beginning of this century, Napoleon, who swept across Europe, attacked Russia, but was completely defeated. It was not the Russian army that defeated him, but typhus in the kingdom of disease!"

Da Shanyan nodded and smiled, "I understand, you can continue."

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "General, referring to history, I think that if we also create a great plague behind the Qing army, then we will be able to disintegrate the resistance of the Qing army, so when I was in Panjin, I have been secretly To do this, the most severe plague is the Black Death. We still don’t know what bacteria caused this disease, but we can know where it is found. Some sick marmots got it. It was the plague, so we caught these marmots and let them infect humans."

Da Shanyan said: "You have a good idea, but who are you using?"

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "At that time, I considered using Chinese people, but I was afraid that they would not bring the disease to Panjin, so I chose our people."

Da Shanyan's face darkened, he frowned, and said, "What did you say?"

Ishihara Hideyoshi quickly explained: "We don't dare to use brave warriors. We are looking for military prostitutes. These women die when they die!"

Da Shanyan thought for a while and said, "Then can we use this trick in Beijing and Nanjing, the rear areas of the Qing court?"

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "Yes, but we need further research. Once people get the plague, they will die within three to five days, so they can't go that far. If we want to use it on Beijing , we need to find the bacteria that cause the plague, find out the most suitable cultivation method, and then transport them to Beijing.”

Da Shanyan said: "I understand, research needs money, right?"

Ishihara Hideyoshi said: "For the research of the empire, money should not be required, but this research requires a lot of equipment and technical personnel, and we have to need a lot of money."

Dashanyan took out a notebook, picked up the pen from the ground, wrote down something on it, and said: "I have written down your matter, and I will report it to the higher authorities as soon as possible. With my recommendation, you will definitely be able to get back soon." The one who gets the funding, you are another secret weapon of our Great Japanese Empire!"

Ishihara Hideyoshi heard "another one" and really wanted to ask, but he didn't dare, so he stood at attention and said, "Thank you General, my subordinates will definitely live up to the General's expectations!"

Five days later, on March 3th, Lin Yuan and Huang Mingtao met in the conference room. Huang Mingtao would report the epidemic situation to Lin Yuan every day. Huang Mingtao said: "Captain, there were no new cases or new suspected cases yesterday. The condition of the Japanese girl It's gotten better."

Seeing Lin Yuan's pensive expression, Huang Mingtao asked, "Captain, I don't understand. According to the usual practice, when a plague occurs in the army during a war, the news is blocked from the outside world. For example, in our era, it swept the world and killed more than 2000 The Spanish flu, which killed [-] people, was first discovered in the U.S. military. At that time, the U.S. military adopted strict news control, so the outside world did not know about this situation, but we put up notices as soon as we entered the city, saying that a plague had occurred , is this appropriate?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "You will see my back move soon."
