Some among officials fear a crisis even more terrible than this one in the future.

They advocate prevention before it happens.

There are also people who are quite helpless and feel that this is something that cannot be helped.

The emperor's force is too strong, and with himself as the core, he has built a national mobilization system, and his wings are already very hard.

He didn't need the nobles to provide soldiers with food and materials to start a war, and he had too many means of production and too many people at his disposal, and it was no longer something they could threaten.

Such emperors, they are helpless to a considerable extent.

If you can't restrain the emperor's force, you can't restrain the emperor's actions.

Unless the emperor really messes around and starts with what they rely on for a living, such as engaging in a second academic downward movement or something.

Otherwise, they would not have the determination and courage to break the net with the emperor.

In a sense, both sides draw a line for each other, and they can't cross the line with each other.

On the edge of the line, it's okay if you jump sideways repeatedly, but if you cross the line, I'm sorry, we can do it for real.

After all, the emperor can't rely on one person and that group of mud legs to rule the world, right?

So this struggle ended there, and it was not mentioned again, and some kind of turmoil caused by this struggle was also confined to Luoyang and did not spread outward.

Quick initiation, fast finish.

The localities were not so implicated, and the scope of the struggle was limited to the center.

For the local officials involved, most of them were reprimanded, and the punishment did not involve the core interests of these officials.

For example, Chen Gong, the assassin of Yongzhou, was ordered to dismiss the subordinate officials who joined forces with Wang Cang, and was also fined for one year.

Qingzhou Thorn Shi Mi Zhu was exposed to the problem of lax supervision over the construction of naval ships and water conservancy projects, and was fined one year.

Basically, the deterrence of the localities has not been expanded, and most localities are still going on with their daily lives in a step-by-step manner.

The war on the frontier was still going on, with the southward campaign of Yangzhou, the southward campaign of Jingzhou, and the skirmishes of the entire territory of Yizhou.

Generals such as Zhang Liao, Zhu Ling, and Le Jin still fought various pioneering wars and conquest wars in the humid and sultry lands of the south.

They used brutal means to devastate the local indigenous people and destroy the original ecological environment of the local area.

They killed a large number of local natives, captured a large number of local aborigines, and emitted various carbon dioxide in large quantities, stepping on the pace of death step by step south.

They paved the way for the Wei Empire to open up to the south with blood and fire, and promoted the official transfer of Chinese civilization from the Yellow River valley to the Yangtze River basin with blood and fire.

Along the way, the southward expansion of the country's territory and control is really not as simple as a matter of transmission.

National territory, is it really sent by phone bills?

Zhang Liao, Zhu Ling and Le Jin would never think so.

With the elite Wei army, they opened up little by little in the primeval jungle, little by little opened up a road that could be walked, and little by little opened up the road of civilization spread.

On this road, they will also encounter the remnants of Shanyue and the local natives who are struggling to resist, these people will not honestly hand over their living space, they will fight to the death with the Wei army to protect their own living space.

Guo Peng attaches great importance to this.

In order to ensure their safety and health, Guo Peng also dispatched a large number of military doctors and medicinal materials, and formulated various mandatory health regulations to avoid the emergence of large-scale infectious diseases in the army.

For example, drinking water must be boiled before drinking, food must be cooked before eating, it is absolutely forbidden to drink raw water, eat raw food, once found, slap the mouth strictly.

Concentrate on going to the toilet, bury it in a centralized manner or transport it to the surrounding counties for manure use, it is not allowed to defecate anywhere, and once it is found, you will directly pick up your pants and spank - publicly spanked in front of everyone!

Wash your hands before eating, and after going to the toilet, and don't eat for a day if you don't observe it.

The military medical team in the army is on duty around the clock, and once abnormal fever, diarrhea, vomiting, and cough are found, they will be isolated immediately.

Isolated from all sides, no contact with other soldiers.

Guo Peng thought of the great lethality of the plague to the people of this era very early, so he always maintained a strong guard against the plague.

In this era, people did not know what a virus was and what a bacterium was, and once a large-scale infection occurred, it was called a plague.

They often don't know the cause or the source of the disease, and it's a lucky thing to be cured, and there's no way to cure it.

In fact, the origin of these plagues is also very well understood, nothing more than unhygienic, drinking dirty and smelly water, eating unraised wild animals, not cooking food, and so on.

There have been hundreds of large-scale plagues recorded in the history books, and there are no records of the inferior.

Because of the inconvenient transportation in ancient times, it was generally difficult to communicate with other places after the plague occurred, so the plague was difficult to transfer from beginning to end, and could only fend for itself, which was also a blessing in misfortune.

But the kind of plagues that killed hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions, such as several great plagues in the late Han Dynasty, are basically related to the sharp increase in population mobility brought about by the war and chaos.

Originally, under the small-scale peasant economy, everyone and the land were bound to the local area, and they did not move locally, so the contagiousness of the plague was limited and the losses were limited.

However, the movement of people from one place to another can easily carry the virus away, causing widespread infection and death.

The more troubled the times, the more likely it is that a large-scale plague will occur, and a plague is an infectious disease.

Therefore, after Hua Tuo's big medical hall and big doctor set up a firm foothold, Guo Peng constantly asked Hua Tuo's team to investigate and summarize the great plague in various places at the end of the Han Dynasty.

Then, using the prestige of Huatuo's team, he continued to publicize various health and epidemic prevention knowledge, and first achieved the most thorough popularization of epidemic prevention knowledge in the highly organized organization of the army.

Therefore, military doctors and medical nurses serving in the army are required to conduct epidemic prevention drills.

In the event of an illness similar to the plague in which more than five people are infected, quarantine immediately and all close contacts are quarantined.

In the era when there was no concept of bacteria and viruses, it was difficult to imagine how difficult it was to effectively treat the plague, and the only most efficient way was to isolate.

Guo Peng doesn't expect to be able to come up with any vaccines or anything like that in the face of the plague in the future, he just needs to implement one concept from top to bottom - isolation.

Carry this concept from the princes in the palace to the hearts of young children playing in the countryside, so that all of them remember two words - isolation, and pass it on from generation to generation.

Isolation.

This is the most primitive, the most helpless, and the most effective way.

If Guo Peng is not mistaken, the reason why Cao Cao's southern expedition to Jingzhou was defeated was inseparable from the outbreak of a large-scale infectious disease in the army, which caused the main elite to lose its combat effectiveness.

He didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past.

If it hits, it's definitely not capsizing in the gutter, it's not the gutter, it's the sea of death, it's going to capsize.

His army is all well-trained professional soldiers, and their combat effectiveness and organization are first-class.

He did not hesitate to invest a huge amount of money in training this army, each of them is a valuable asset, and if a large number of people are brought down by an unexplained infectious disease, it will definitely make him die of heartache.

What's more, he built roads all over the country, greatly enhanced the transportation capacity, and large-scale migration of the people of the Central Plains to settle in areas with few people and many people, resumed production, and increased the population mobility of the Wei Empire.

In this case, if there was a plague, it would be a terrible situation that could not be imagined.

So his vigilance was well rewarded.
