Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 432: Typhoid fever (1)

(1);

PS: There is still a chapter very late. Today is the tightest day in this semester. I have time to code. The third watch can only wait for tomorrow.

The Qi prisoners were concentrated in two places, one was the camp where the company commanders, Li Yousi and other military officials were imprisoned, in the Waiguo area, and the other was the prisoner's camp for ordinary soldiers, a hundred paces away from the walls of Qinyi.

When Zhao Wushe came to this prison camp for the third time in the past few days, he saw that the soldiers who were yellow and skinny, and the soldiers in dirty brown clothes staggered out of the shack, and the Zhao soldiers who drove them were covered with thick layers. The Ge Ma mask: This was made by Zhao Wuxi and the wife of Qin Yi sewed it overnight.

Zhao Bing was fully armed, but he was still far away from the unarmed soldiers, like avoiding a tiger. Zhao Wuxi and the people around him also stopped, covering their mouths and noses, looking at them with disgust. .

The reason for this is because these people all had the same symptoms.

Just the night before, Bian Que, who treated Zhao Bing and the prisoners equally, found that many people in the prison camp were sick. They were either hot or cold, and most of them were accompanied by body pain and vomiting.

Other disease doctors have not linked these conditions together, only the experienced doctor Bian Que has a serious face, because these four are all kinds of serious diseases!

After a serious diagnosis, the bad news was confirmed.

"It's typhoid!"

When he heard this sentence, Zhao Wuxi felt a chill all over his body, even when he was riding a horse and charging towards the densely packed Qi army in the heavy snow, he did not feel this way.

Zhao Wuxi had heard about infectious diseases in ancient times in his previous life, and in the Spring and Autumn Period, he felt the same way. For a body that had not received any vaccinations, these diseases were the most threatening things to his life. Fortunately, he was born as a son of the Qing family, and he never lacked food or clothing. it is good.

But in the face of typhoid. He, and even Zhao Yang's life, has no guarantee at all!

Le Lingzi said to him a long time ago: "There are scabies in the four seasons. In the spring, there are scabies and scabies. In the summer, there are itching and scabies. In the autumn, there are malaria and cold diseases.

The so-called "cold disease", also known as typhoid fever, was a vicious disease that made people smell disgusting throughout the Middle Ages. It was a contagious febrile venereal disease. It is somewhat similar to the ** of later generations, like burning out a fire in the body, the condition is more serious, and the death is also very fast.

Since typhoid fever is such a great threat to human life, what kind of tragedy will happen once it becomes popular? Although the population in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Shang, Zhou, and Autumn Periods was not dense and did not have the necessary conditions for cross-regional transmission, the outbreak of typhoid fever in a certain country or a certain city still emerged one after another.

"Poetry. Daya. Summoning Min" is a description of the time of King You of Zhou: "The sky is powerful, and the sky is down to mourning; I am starved, and the people are exiled", which records the famine caused by drought and the epidemic of typhoid fever.

Another example is the ninth year of Duke Xiang of Lu (564 BC). spring,. After the fire in the Song Dynasty destroyed the house, there was another epidemic, probably typhoid fever.

The most recent major epidemic was in the nineteenth year of Duke Zhao of Lu (523 BC), when typhoid fever was prevalent in the capital of Zheng State, and even several doctors died one by one, leaving the court empty.

Every major epidemic is very serious, causing a large number of deaths.

More than 6,000 Zhao soldiers, more than 5,000 Qi prisoners, and more than 10,000 people inside and outside Qin Yi, even if only 20% perished. There are also as many as three or four thousand people. At that time, every family may wear filial piety, and every household will cry.

This is something Zhao Yang and Zhao Wuxi absolutely cannot accept.

Therefore, all military operations of Zhao Bing had to be suspended. Fix it first. Zhao Wuxi had no choice but to bite the bullet. For the past two days, he has been discussing countermeasures with Bian Que and inspecting the barracks and prison camps.

The cause of this typhoid fever is not difficult to guess.

The auntie Ziqing pursued it hard, but he still couldn't see the end of the dragon. Zeng Yun said: After the army, there will be a year of disaster.

For one thing, a war would consume a lot of food reserves. Tens of thousands of people crossing the border destroy farmland like locusts. The second rule is as the so-called "defeated army, the dead cover the grass, and the corpses are numbered in thousands; when the age of starvation is old, the hungry are full of people, and the warm air is plagued, and thousands of households are wiped out!"

Fighting will kill people, and when there are many dead people, epidemics will spread. Qi people went south, leaving a lot of corpses along the way. During the battle in the snowfield, nearly 5,000 corpses were thrown from both sides. Zhao Bing was tired and weak, how could he have the strength to bury them all? Zhao Bing's corpse was collected, and some of the enemy's collective was buried, and there were not a few abandoned wilderness to be swallowed by jackals and crows, so it was not surprising that diseases were breeding.

The first outbreak of typhoid fever was among the Qi prisoners. Once they experienced a long-term battle, perhaps the root of the disease began to hide in Yiyi. After a long journey to the south, after being cut off from the food route, he lacked food and clothing, and his body became weak, and diseases naturally took advantage of it. During the battle that day, many people who could not stand even in battle and could not hold their spears directly knelt down and begged for surrender.

Zhao Bing rushed to Qinyi to spend the night, so the five thousand people could not be screened in time, and those patients brought typhoid fever into the barracks.

The best way to eliminate the disease is to prevent it before it happens.

But I didn't realize until the day before yesterday that it was already a little late.

Bian Que's disciple Ziyang came to greet Zhao Wuxi. Zibao was greedy for life and feared death. After learning that it was typhoid fever, he disregarded his status as a doctor and hid near Zhao Yang's camp. He only wanted to take care of the doctors and not take prisoners camp.

Fortunately, the other two disciples of Bian Que, Ziyang and Ziyue, both have the heart of a doctor.

At this time, Ziyang said worriedly: "Nowadays, there are many patients in the prison camp, and even in the military camp and county towns, there are many similar symptoms. If it is not controlled, a large-scale epidemic should appear soon. The flashpoint is the prison camp!"

The people of Qinyi lived relatively scattered, even if they were within one mile, at least they were divided into different households. The barracks that Zhao Wuxi arranged for Zhao Bing was also reasonable~www.readwn.com~ Not only was there enough ventilation, but every ten camps also had a public toilet, and everyone took turns to clean.

The prisoners were not treated like this. They all lived together in a crowded camp. The entire prison camp was made up of countless large and small shacks and fences, crowded with more than 5,000 people. Dirty, messy, crowded, how could the epidemic not break out?

Looking at the sick patients who were expelled from the camp in front of him, Zhao Wuxi was full of worries.

These Qi prisoners have been trudging through the ice and snow for many days. Bian Que's doctor is benevolent and treats captives equally, but it is only pitiful for him to distribute the medicinal soup made by his disciples to them. He may have it today and disappear tomorrow. It's a drop in the bucket. It's just talking about people, it's not very useful at all.

Even the prisoners couldn't even eat enough food—this was Qin Yi's food, and it was enough to supply Zhao soldiers, so why should they raise another 5,000 mouths? After all, Zhao Yang's retainers are still arguing about the disposal of these Qi prisoners.

So Zhao Wuxi said to Ziyang: "For today's plan, we can only do our best with personnel. The measures arranged by An Tianming, Master Bian Que and I, except that the sick must be isolated to prevent the disease from spreading in the crowd. Can they all be implemented one by one?" (To be continued.)
