Open an aircraft carrier to fight against Japan

Huang Mingtao asked, "What's the last move?"

Lin Yuan said: "Many advancements and changes in human history have occurred after catastrophes, so this rudimentary biological attack may be an opportunity."

At this moment, a soldier came to call Huang Mingtao and said, "Doctor Huang, a patient in isolation has developed a fever, please go and have a look."

Huang Mingtao hurriedly got up and left. Lin Yuan was the only one left in the meeting room. The biological weapon attack by the Japanese army reminded Lin Yuan of one thing. It is spring now, when various diseases are prevalent, and the Qing army The sanitation situation is really worrying.

Not only the Qing army, but the whole country’s sanitation is extremely poor. Take Beijing, the heart of the Qing Empire, for example. Because there is no modern road built with asphalt concrete, it is often windy and rainy. In addition, there is no modern underground drainage system in Beijing, and the garbage disposal system is not perfect, so many places in the capital are full of dirty water and feces.Lin Yuan thought: "This biological attack can be used to initially improve these conditions."

After thinking about it, Lin Yuan couldn't help but walked outside, and suddenly saw five Qing soldiers sitting around, not knowing what they were doing.

Elite soldiers and strong generals have already been sent to the front line, so the rest of Panjin City are all young recruits. These five soldiers are not very old. According to Lin Yuan, they are all under 20 years old. They gathered together , laughing from time to time.

Lin Yuan was also curious, so he sneaked over, wanting to know what they were doing, he hid behind the tent, poked his head out to see them, the leader said first: "I come first, I come first, the loser has to buy wine!" drink!"

As he spoke, he picked up the corner of his coat, looked at it, put it down after a while, and smiled at the next one: "It's your turn!"

Seeing them picking up the corners of their clothes one after another, and then putting them down, laughing loudly from time to time, Lin Yuan couldn't see what they were doing, so he couldn't help being curious, walked up to them, and asked, "What are you doing?"

When the five soldiers saw Lin Yuan, they immediately stood up, and the leader said, "Commander Qi, we are not lazy, we just came back from the changing of the guard."

Lin Yuan looked at the terrified faces of the recruits, couldn't help smiling, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to blame you, I just want to know, what are you doing?"

Seeing Lin Yuan's smiling face, the leader felt relieved, and said, "Report to Commander Lin, we are competing."

Lin Yuan asked: "Competition? What is the competition?"

The leader smiled and said, "Let me show it to Lin Shuai." He picked up the corner of his clothes and searched in the seams. Lin Yuan saw that the seams of the clothes were full of small white pieces, and he knew they were from lice. After a while, the leader found a fat black louse and put it on the nail of his thumb. When the two nails squeezed together, the louse was squashed flat, and the louse was squeezed from the body. A lot of blood came out and stuck to the nails.

The leader smiled and said, "Shuai Lin, we are catching lice and squashing them to see who can squeeze them louder."

Another soldier smiled and said: "Shuai Lin, we are not only competing with this, but also with other things, such as catching fleas within a certain period of time. Those things run fast and are difficult to catch. Whoever catches more will win."

After hearing this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but burst out laughing with a "puchi", and said, "Okay, okay, I see, you guys go on playing, I'll go to another place."

After Lin Yuan walked away, he couldn't laugh anymore. The uniforms of many soldiers of the Qing army were not washed once a year, their clothes were not washed, and even less bathing. Especially the Qing army had long hair, and lice were always there. Hiding in the hair, in the crevices of clothes, and of course fleas, this parasite is also found in many animals, especially mice.

The ancestors of these soldiers came here with lice and fleas, and they have long been accustomed to this, but in Lin Yuan's view, those parasites are the embodiment of death!Because they are the carriers of a large number of infectious diseases, such as plague, hemorrhagic fever, and typhus, behind each name are millions or even tens of millions of human lives!

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It's not difficult to solve the problem of lice. For those on the clothes, you only need to scald the clothes several times with boiling water to kill the eggs and lice; Just take a few baths.” But that’s where the problem lies. Most soldiers in the Qing army only had one winter coat. In this era, cotton coats were also scarce because the production of cotton was not high.

If you don't change clothes for soldiers, it's useless to take more baths, but where can you get thousands of cotton clothes?

This problem has not been resolved, and another more difficult problem has emerged. The difficulties of the army are difficult to solve, so what about this country, isn't it even more difficult?

Lin Yuan meditated silently for a while, took out the communicator, and found Shen Wanqing at the newspaper office. As soon as the call started, Shen Wanqing asked worriedly: "I heard that there is a plague epidemic over there, are you okay?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I'm fine, I need some reports from your newspaper."

Shen Wanqing felt relieved when she heard that Lin Yuan was fine, and said, "Okay, tell me, what kind of report will you publish?"

Lin Yuan said: "I want you to send a report like this, saying that the epidemic here is very serious and many people have died, and then accompanied by two photos of many dead people, and saying that the epidemic has spread to the capital. trend, this is the first day of reporting."

Shen Wanqing asked blankly: "Won't reporting like this cause panic? Besides, isn't the epidemic under control?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "I will explain my purpose to you later, and then the next day, you will publish another report, saying that I have found a cure for the plague. I hope everyone will not panic. In this newspaper , you write an interview with me, and you must mention in the interview: this plague is spread by parasites such as rats, fleas, and lice, and then you introduce some methods to get rid of them.”

Shen Wanqing said: "Do you want everyone to pay attention to hygiene? I'm afraid it won't work. You also know that there are many poor people. Their whole family often only has one cotton coat, so their clothes can't be changed and washed."

Lin Yuan said: "In this era of China, the wealthiest class certainly doesn't have these problems. The next level, they can eliminate parasites, but their ideas can't be changed. Isn't there an old saying in China that lice Don’t bite if you have too many, don’t you worry about having too much debt? They don’t know that these parasites can spread diseases, so although they can do it, they don’t do it. So, once your article is published, these people will be forced to change their ideas."

Shen Wanqing asked, "What about the poorest people?"

Lin Yuan laughed twice, and said, "This is exactly the vicious part of my plan, do you still remember the Manshan?"

Shen Wanqing said: "That's him, we found out, he is actually a Japanese spy!"

Lin Yuan said: "Isn't he pretending to be a good man? It just so happens that you use public opinion to put pressure on him to donate cotton clothes to the poor. It just so happens that our army also needs cotton clothes here, and then you will give us thousands of them. Bring it."

Shen Wanqing said coquettishly: "So you are so bad, I will never talk to you again!"

Lin Yuan felt itchy in his heart, and said, "These are not my ultimate goal, do you know what my ultimate goal is?"
