Chapter 1914 The crisis of Renzi Juan is back, willing to take on the big responsibility

He Shixian has been in Yulin for decades, and it’s not that he has never seen strong winds and waves. He is not afraid of the invasion of the Tumet people, and he ignores the rebellion of the Ordos people. He can even deal with Yuru’s mutiny, but this plague is lingering. nightmare.

The biggest problems plaguing the Northwest Frontier Army are nothing more than a few, one is food, and the other is disease, and the disease mainly refers to the plague, especially the pimple plague.

He Shixian doesn't know what's going on in this world, as far as he knows, it seems that before the Yuanxi period, there was a plague here, but it was very rare, and it happened only once in ten or eight years, and it was extinguished immediately. ,Has little effect.

But since the reign of Yuanxi, this plague has been lingering in the northwest like a haze. The towns of Yulin, Ningxia, Guyuan, Shanxi, and Datong have all suffered from this kind of disaster, and once it breaks out, it will be widespread. Hundreds of thousands of people, as many as tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of people died.

The most serious incident broke out in Datong Town and Yulin Town at the same time. It happened in the 29th year of Yuanxi, and it has been more than 2 years now. Anding and Suide in Yulin were plagued by the spread of the plague. It is said that more than [-] people died in Datong, and even thousands of soldiers died. Yulin was similar, with more than [-] deaths. The situation in the middle is slightly better, only more than [-] people died of the disease.

If it's an ordinary season, that's fine. When encountering this kind of disaster, you can only bite the bullet and deal with it, but this year is really unlucky.

After a severe drought, there must be a catastrophe. Before he left, the governor had already told him to take precautions. He Shixian had also been extra cautious, and prepared all kinds of countermeasures, just for fear of accidents.

Who would have thought that the more afraid of accidents, the more accidents will happen. If the disaster victims are still expected, then this lump plague is really unlucky.

The main force of the refugee rebel army is on the offensive. It has already captured Yichuan and is advancing towards Luochuan. Another rebel army is operating in the wild boar gorge northeast of Ganquan, intending to join forces with the main force of the rebel army.

He Shixian had just mobilized a part of the Yulin Army and was about to go south to Ansai. He never thought that he had just left the Jingbian camp and had not yet reached Luguanling, and this kind of bad news came from here again. How could this not make him anxious.

After the main force of the Northwest Army left the Central Plains eastward, the three towns of Ganninggu and Gan Ninggu basically became housekeepers. It is considered good if they can keep the gates in order. The only town that can mobilize mobile emergency troops is Yulin Town.

Before Feng Tang left, he also said that riots from the rioters after the severe drought were inevitable, but he had to choose the right time to intervene as much as possible. In the final analysis, without food to eat, these rioters can only rebel against big households to survive and eat.

There is no way to solve the deadlock of not forcing out the grain of the wealthy gentry and big households in the Gansu-Shaanxi area.

The imperial court now does not have so much spare power to take care of the relief in Shanshan and Shanxi, and it can only be freed up after the war in Shandong comes to an end.

The current situation is that only Yulin Town can stabilize the situation, limit the spread of these rioters and thieves to the greatest extent, trade space for time, and try to delay it until the second half of the year as much as possible. First, there will be some harvests in some areas during the summer harvest, and second, the situation after the autumn harvest. It may be alleviated, and thirdly, it is estimated that the situation in Shandong will become clear after autumn. At that time, the imperial court will have the spare power to solve the chaos in Shanshan and Shaanxi.

He Shixian also came up with this idea, but he never thought that the plan would be disrupted by the sudden plague just after it was launched.

Pimple plague is the most dangerous kind of plague, not much inferior to smallpox. Along the side wall, from Ganning to Shanshan, it has never really been cut off. It will break out every few years, or Serious or moderate, judging from the current situation, both Shenmu and Fugu have discovered the epidemic, which looks quite dangerous, and some infected people have escaped the Yellow River to Shanxi. He Shixian can only silently say that Shanxi Blessed be myself.

What I can do is to control the plague to the smallest extent. It is best to limit it to the east of Jiahe River, and at worst to the east of Wuding River. It must not be allowed to cross the line of Yulin, Mizhi, and Suide. Because once this line is crossed, it means that the plague will spread throughout the hinterland of northern Shaanxi, making it difficult to control.

This matter cannot be done by Yulin Town alone, and it has to rely on the cooperation of Yan'an Prefecture. The problem is that there are thieves in Yan'an Prefecture now, and there is no energy to deal with it, especially in Ganquan, Linzhou, Luochuan, and Yichuan. Several states and counties were almost paralyzed. He Shixian could imagine how unrealistic it would be to ask people from Yan'an Prefecture to help his family control the epidemic.

But no matter how unrealistic it is, he must go to the people in Yan'an Mansion, otherwise the situation will only get worse.

He Shixian's heart was full of worry and pessimism. Once the plague spread, especially if it could not be controlled in the army, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Immediately write a letter to the governor to report the situation, and also send a letter to Xiaofeng Xiuzhuan in Beijing. I remember the governor said that when Xiaofeng Xiuzhuan was studying in Beijing, he once wrote a book. A book about the prevention and control of the plague, the plague broke out after the flood in central Beijing, and it was well controlled,..."

He Shixian, who was about to go out immediately to Zhenqiang Office, suddenly remembered something, stopped in his tracks, and said thoughtfully.

"My lord, Xiao Feng Xiuzhuan can cure the plague?" The soldier asked in disbelief, "Is it also this plague?"

"No matter what kind of plague it is, treatment is not the most important thing, the key is prevention." He Shixian sighed, "Xiao Fengxiu dared to write a book to prevent and control the plague, there must be some way to do it, and asking him to give advice can only be beneficial."

Feng Ziying was also taken aback when she received the urgent letter from He Shixian.

Of course he knew what pimple plague was, wasn't it the plague?Pneumonic plague and bubonic plague are the most contagious among the plagues. The bubonic plague mentioned by He Shixian is undoubtedly bubonic plague. Those who suffer from bubonic plague have swollen lymph nodes and fleshy bumps at the end, which is the origin of the name bubonic plague.

In the history of previous lives, the plague outbreak in the late Ming Dynasty almost destroyed the entire north, and the plague spread in Gyeonggi, which caused the Ming army's combat effectiveness to be greatly reduced. Many people also believed that it was a major reason why Li Zicheng easily captured Beijing.

Now it seems that the timeline is 30 years earlier than that of Chongzhen, but in fact, from the Jiajing period of the late Ming Dynasty in the previous life, the plague has been prevalent in the north, but the scale is not as large as that in the late Ming Dynasty.

However, many natural conditions in this world have not changed much, which means that the possibility of the plague epidemic still exists, and some other unexpected factors may even cause the plague epidemic in the late Ming Dynasty to advance, which is undoubtedly a bad news.

Feng Ziying had thought about the severe drought, predicted the uprising of the refugees, and even worried that the White Lotus Sect would mix in and take the opportunity to make trouble, but he didn't expect that the plague would also break out at this time, which really caught him off guard.

For a moment, he also felt a little helpless.

After the flood in central Beijing that year, he could roughly guess that it was nothing more than dysentery and cholera. It was nothing more than clean water, clean food, and then relatively isolated, and then disinfected with things like lime. Most of the problems are solved, and with the support of some traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions, it is almost the same.

But he was really a little apprehensive about the plague.

At that time, he just accidentally looked through "History of the Ming Dynasty" and related historical materials. He saw that the plague in the late Ming Dynasty was the most scourge of the plague, but after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the plague gradually became less severe. It is almost the same, the spread of infection is not so severe, and it is slowly suppressed.

But now the plague epidemic has just broken out in Shanshan and Shaanxi, and it is also mixed with the refugees. The Yulin Army even has to shoulder the responsibility of suppressing the chaos. How can they be isolated and prevented from spreading?

This stage is just when the explosive spread has just begun. If the response is appropriate, the epidemic can be suppressed within a certain range, but the problem is that there is a prerequisite for this, that is, there must be a strong government organization, and even the army. To help implement, and to have sufficient financial and material resources to deal with it, food, medicinal materials, cloth, doctors and other materials and talents, only in this way can it be controlled.

But now the local governments in Shanxi and Shaanxi can't even solve the problem of feeding the refugees, so how can they talk about solving the problem of the plague epidemic?

The vagrant army is bound to run around in order to eat, and the patients who have the plague will mix among them. Not only will all the refugees be infected and become mobile sources of disease, but it will also spread the plague to various places. Can the land be controlled?

Thinking of this, Feng Ziying really couldn't sit still, but He Shixian sent a letter asking for help, what can he do?

Feng Ziying believed that the imperial court should also know about this news, but it did not spread, most likely because they were afraid of affecting the hearts of the people in Gyeonggi, especially when the Shandong War was about to start, but once the plague spread in Shanshan and Shaanxi, as long as there were a few people If you come to Gyeonggi, it will be a great disaster.

I have to report to the imperial court immediately, such things must not be delayed, at least let Shanxi immediately block off the crowds who may flow northward, and take immediate action, set up a card to check the possible existence of Potential source of risk, to avoid the spread of the plague eastward.

It's hard to say what the imperial court can do now, but Feng Ziying made some calculations on Shuntian Mansion's side, and what he can do is probably to prepare a batch of medicinal materials in advance, just in case, so that they can support Shanshan in time.

In addition, it is also possible to recruit a batch of medicinal materials through various channels, which can be regarded as satisfactory.
