Super Chief
Chapter 497: Plague
The arrival of the Chieftain naturally made the morale of the Grimbear Army soldiers soar to a new high, and everyone was full of confidence in the next battle.
In the southwestern part of the autumn season, the climate is far less hot than summer. At this time, the original Gaoshu tribe and Monongahela need to wear heavy animal skin clothes to resist the severe cold, but here, the soldiers are still wearing single clothes and trousers.
Although the temperature is still high here, it is not as unbearable as before. At least the various diseases caused by the heat are now much less. Among the nearly 20,000 Grim Bear soldiers, not many have fallen due to illness.
The bighorn sheep also rushed over early, and the failure of the southwest theater made him, the commander-in-chief of the Western Expeditionary Army, uncomfortable.
However, the bighorn sheep commanded the battle very well, but he was also powerless when faced with this invisible and intangible disease.
However, after Shi Xiong arrived, everything began to change.
The first order Shixiong issued after he came to Daying was to prohibit urinating and defecation anywhere. Anyone who urinates and defecates must go to the designated place, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law!
The second order is that everyone must drink boiled water. Whoever dares to drink raw water will be dealt with in the same way!
The third order is still about making a living, that is, everyone must wash their hands with soap before and after meals! Supervise each other and find out who does not implement this order, military law will deal with it!
Three successive "Military Disposal" orders with a strong flavor of killing were issued, and all the soldiers of the Grim Bear Army immediately trembled.
Those veterans all know how strict their chief chief is, and they also know that as long as their boss issues such an order, there will be no compromises, so one by one will take the recruits to implement them honestly. These three commands.
"Boss, why do you want to issue such a strange order?" Sitting in the big tent serving as the headquarters, the bighorn sheep asked Shi Xiong very puzzled.
"You didn’t know this before and I didn’t blame you, but from now on, as long as our soldiers go on the march, these three orders must be implemented in the team. These three orders will be written into the military regulations in the future. Who dares not implement them? , Immediately detained for three days!" Shi Xiong said solemnly.
Looking at the puzzled faces of Bighorn Sheep, Kuai Ma, and Bone Spear, Shi Xiong's expression eased, and then he explained to them: "Almost all of our soldiers live in the north. They came here for the first time. In the south, high temperature, dryness, and local mosquito bites can make our soldiers sick. This has been proven in the ancient and mysterious Eastern country. This disease can be collectively referred to as inadequacy."
Shi Xiong stood up, pacing in the big tent, and continued: "There is no good way to deal with this kind of dissatisfaction, but if some methods are resolutely implemented, it can be a good way to alleviate the dissatisfaction. For example, the three orders I issued."
"If our soldiers can carry out these three commands well, then their chances of suffering from unacceptable soil and water will be greatly reduced..."
Shi Xiong didn't use profound language to explain these things to them. After all, it involved disease, epidemic prevention, and even all aspects. Even if it was explained to them, they couldn't understand it now. You can only explain these things to them slowly in the future.
In this extraordinary period, high-pressure methods have to be used.
In fact, let alone this era, even in the modern society of later generations, the most feared is the spread of this disease. Especially in densely populated areas, the spread of this disease can be fatal.
During the War of Independence in the original historical time and space, the British originally had the advantage. In the first five years after the outbreak of the War of Independence, the British even defeated the Americans for a time. The Americans could only rely on their familiarity with the terrain to go deep into the mountains and forests to fight guerrillas against the British, and then reluctantly persisted.
At the end of the spring of 1781, the British army attacked and defeated the Continental American Army in the southern region. A decisive battle about whether the United States could truly be independent began in Luozhen, South Carolina.
At the beginning, the British army was invincible and invincible. The soldiers of the Continental American Army were killed and wounded countless. However, after the summer, the situation on the battlefield suddenly reversed, and the British soldiers languished and began to lose again and again.
It turned out that there is a mosquito that is a specialty of America, called "Aedes". This mosquito, which lives widely in southern North America, carries a large number of malaria bacteria. The British who had sent their troops south were bitten by an Aedes mosquito in southern North America. It didn't take long for the malaria to spread in the British army barracks. British soldiers infected with malaria have headaches, fevers, convulsions and other symptoms. Half of the soldiers are so sick that they have difficulty walking, let alone marching and fighting.
Most of the American militia and the Continental Army grew up in the South. They face the infestation of Aedes mosquitoes and malaria every summer, and antibodies are formed in their bodies. Aedes mosquitoes and malaria can't help them. Seeing that the British army was harassed by Aedes mosquitoes and malaria, the American Independence Army immediately seized this favorable opportunity and began a major counterattack, encircling the British army bit by bit and "cannibalizing." The British army held on for more than two months. In the end, the British commander-in-chief, Lord Cornwallis, saw no hope of waiting for rescue, and was forced to surrender with the white flag.
Due to the defeat of the British front-line troops sent to North America and the French who came to intervene against the British forces after Canada, the British government felt that the two fronts were overwhelmed and had to shake hands with the United States and France.
Therefore, on September 3, 1783, the imposing British Empire and the United States signed the "Paris Peace Treaty" in Paris, France. The British government publicly announced that 13 North American colonies were separated from British rule, and officially recognized that the United States was an independent country.
It can be said that ~www.readwn.com~ it is not the weapons in the hands of the Americans and their spirit of resistance that reversed the entire war of independence, but a small mosquito, the Aedes mosquito.
This is where the power of the epidemic lies.
This invisible and intangible thing can really cause many incredible endings...
Now that the Cherokee tribe is extremely powerful, and the Grim Bear Army has shown a huge advantage in crushing other tribes. But in this summer, the Second and Third Divisions are still ruthless in the hot weather of the Great Southwest. Crushed.
Fortunately, there was no large-scale epidemic in the army at that time, otherwise it would be a question of whether the second and third divisions of the Grim Bear Army could be kept.
Therefore, as far as the epidemic is concerned, we cannot pay too much attention.
It's like the cowpox vaccination promoted by Stone Bear in the tribe, the purpose is to fight against the more terrifying plague of smallpox.
