The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 77 The Plague II

"My lord, Ning'er has a solution!"

Huo Yu, who was immersed in searching for the prescription, suddenly froze for a moment, and looked up at Zhang Ning.

"At the beginning when my father used talisman water to treat the plague patients, Ning'er followed around, so Ning'er knew the prescription of Taiping's medicine." Seeing that Huo Yu was silent, Zhang Ning said again.

Hearing that Huo Yu patted his forehead vigorously, he asked Dian Wei to prepare the carriage immediately and go to the gathering place of the Yellow Turban prisoners.

"My lord, Ning'er is ready to prepare, please wait a moment, lord."

“Go ahead, time is life!”

Huo Yu called Shang Yu'er to the study, and drew two patterns on the silk with a pen, and then asked Yu'er to immediately make samples and hand them over to Xun You for mass production.Seeing Huo Yu's solemn order, Yu'er didn't dare to ask any more questions. She took the brocade silk and returned to her residence to start making. She knew in her heart that these two things must be what the young master needs to deal with the plague, and she must not disappoint the young master. .

On the way to the gathering point, Huo Yu asked Zhang Ning carefully whether he was sure of controlling the epidemic, Zhang Ning nodded with a smile and said, "Young master, let me go, if father succeeds, Ning'er will succeed!"

With these words, Huo Yu finally had a reassurance in his heart.If Zhang Jiao hadn't promised to take care of Zhang Ning at the beginning, I really don't know how to deal with the plague today.As for Hua Tuo, this man was wandering around and had no fixed abode at all, so it was really hard to find him.

Inside the gathering point, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Liu Pi, and Gong Du were all anxious.Although they had a high prestige in the Yellow Turbans, the people's grievances were aroused, and they didn't listen to persuasion at all. At this time, they could only hope that the lord would arrive soon, and made up their minds.

"Folks, the plague is discovered early and can generally be controlled. In the hometown, as long as there are people suffering from the plague, if they cannot be treated in time, the people in the village will be expelled from the village. Die." In the chaotic situation, someone suddenly shouted loudly.

Everyone was excited when they heard this, and when they thought of their good life, they were completely disrupted by the damned plague-stricken people.They won't survive anyway, as long as we burn them to death early, we'll be safe.

There are precedents for this matter, and we are just following the rules.Wait for everyone to find their own reasons.So they all agree that most people can survive, except for those few people who are infected with the plague, that is a matter of course.

"Burn them to death, burn them to death!" someone shouted again, and then more voices came.

Faced with such a situation, the four of them looked at each other. If the situation got out of control, they would not be responsible, so they ordered the soldiers around them to be on alert, and any instigators would be shot!

"Shut up all of them!" Huo Yu's voice came, and the four of them were immediately relieved, and they finally came.

"Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, Liu Pi, Gong Du, do you still remember the military order?"

"I will keep it in my heart and never forget it."

"In that case, why not capture the instigator?"

The four "nuo" promised and then ordered people to find the instigator.

It didn't take long to pick out a few people from the crowd. Huo Yu saw that although these people were dressed in rags, their skin was fair and they were not yellow scarf prisoners at all.Then he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you waiting for? Mixing among the people and instigating trouble? What should be the crime?"

"Hmph, everyone will die when the plague appears, so why do you say I'm instigating trouble?"

"Since I don't say anything, I have a way to deal with people like you! Zhou Cang, detain these people separately and deal with them later!"

"promise"

After the incident, everyone calmed down a lot under Huo Yu's comfort, and then let Zhang Ning walk around in front of everyone. Among other things, those who recognized Zhang Ning returned to their tents. The others followed suit.

Huo Yu's move was really helpless. He didn't want to send troops to suppress the riot after it broke out, which would not be conducive to controlling the epidemic at all.So under Huo Yu's deliberate arrangement, the entire gathering point went viral, the daughter of the great virtuous teacher is still alive, and the talisman of the great virtuous teacher has not been lost.

After dealing with the public grievances, Huo Yu led Zhang Ning to inspect the plague-stricken tents.But before that, Huo Yu ordered everyone to cover most of their faces with a piece of sackcloth, leaving only their eyes outside.

"Ning'er, is it serious?" Huo Yu asked immediately after leading everyone out.

"Eight of these people are seriously ill, and the rest are newly infected. Ning'er is trying her best."

Hearing what Zhang Ning said, Huo Yu felt at ease. Now he can only take some measures in combination with some methods of later generations. As long as he can control it within a certain range, he will win.

So under Zhang Ning's surprised eyes, Huo Yu issued a series of orders: First, everyone in the gathering place is not allowed to go out without permission, including himself, and everyone is not allowed to leave until the epidemic is over;

Second, Zhang Fei and Liao Hua dispatched troops to guard the outside of the gathering point. Anyone and livestock were only allowed to enter and not to exit, and a section of isolation zone was set up;

Third, immediately isolate the seriously ill person alone, and burn everything that has been used before.All other things used by the newly infected people were also burned, and isolation belts were set up;

Fourth, all people will defecate and defecate in a unified place, and drink boiled hot water every day.

Fifth, those who violate the above orders will be executed without mercy.

Although these five orders seem harsh, they are still necessary for the moment.As soon as the order came out, everyone started to get busy, Zhang Ning was busy prescribing medicine, Huo Yu was busy patrolling around.After nearly a day of busy work, the entire gathering point gradually quieted down.

In the prefect's mansion, Yu'er was busy all day, and finally drove out what Huo Yu asked for, so Liu Ji asked Xun You to convey Huo Yu's meaning.Xun You didn't dare to be careless and asked someone to make it all night, and finally sent what he made to the gathering point at dawn.

Huo Yu looked at the more than ten pairs of simple gloves and masks in front of him, and was speechless.When it comes to appearance, it is as ugly as it is, and when it comes to materials, it is really difficult to understand.But it's better than nothing, and it's good to be able to hide a layer of protection.So he ordered people to distribute these more than ten pairs of masks and gloves to Zhang Ning and the soldiers who often brought water and food and often contacted patients. Of course, he also kept a set for himself.

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and the epidemic in the gathering point was well controlled. Five of the eight seriously ill people had died. Zhang Ning did his best, and the condition of the remaining three people gradually improved.The epidemic did not expand further, except for a few sergeants who were infected.

The corpse of the deceased had already been burned by Huo Yu's order. Although it violated the precepts of the ancestors, the most important thing is to survive when life and death are at stake.A plague turmoil passed just like this. During this period, the prefect Huo Yu lived and ate in the gathering place, and personally delivered medicine and food to the patients. Although the orders issued were harsh, the people knew and were still full of gratitude.

Especially Huo Yu's preventive method, even Zhang Ning found it inconceivable.Although he was a little tired every day, Huo Yu always patrolled with a smile on his face, which made everyone feel more at ease.Just ask which official in the world is willing to eat and live with his soldiers and people.

After this incident, Zhang Ning somewhat understood his father's choice, that the one who wins the hearts of the people in troubled times wins the world.
