Chapter 714: The Spread of Disease
Neither the commander-in-chief nor the commander-in-chief agreed to sell weapons to them, and this was a matter of principle, and no matter how far the negotiations went, it would not be possible to sell weapons to Japan.
Then the commander quickly sent a telegram to the deputy commander in Chongqing, telling him that it was impossible to refuse, and then sent a telegram to the commander of Chiang in Chongqing, 300,000 guns would be delivered within 4 months, impossible, and now Yan'an does not have such a large output.
On the Chongqing side, there are still negotiations, but the talks are almost over, and Hu Bin in Southeast Asia, there is still no, that is, every day he takes the soldiers up the mountain to hunt, and after returning from hunting, his whole body will be soaked, this day, Hu Bin has just come back, and the staff officer of the command headquarters ran in, very anxious.
"Brother Bin, something happened to the 101st Division, and the troops of a battalion have been fighting!" The staff officer spoke.
"What?" When Hu Bin heard it, he turned his head to look at him sharply, while Li Nian and Li Dalong also stopped what they were doing and walked over.
"Telegram, the commander of the 101st Division, Li Qinwei, sent it, and now according to the previous meeting and discussion, they have been isolated, and Artemisia annua is also boiling, and soldiers in such a situation must drink Artemisia annua water!" The staff officer handed Hu Bin the telegram, and Hu Bin took the telegram and read it carefully.
"Tell the monks, let the soldiers not contact with other troops first, the soldiers in several nearby positions should also start drinking Artemisia annua water, and the doctors from the field hospital should enter the 1092 battalion immediately, bring anti-inflammatory medicines, and be sure to cure those soldiers! In addition, send a telegram to the whole army, pay attention to similar situations, and report it immediately if you find out! Hu Bin said anxiously to the staff officer.
"Yes!" The staff officer went out as he spoke, but Hu Bin was still anxious, and he didn't know if the soldiers would be able to withstand it after taking Artemisia annua water.
"That's right. Send a telegram to Wei Lihuang and tell them that this situation has occurred, Made, the soldiers are all in the trenches, it is very easy to get such a disease, and there are so many people in a bomb shelter. The infection is very fast, by the way, what the fighters eat must be disinfected with boiling water! Hu Bin stood there and shouted.
"Xiaobin, Xiaobin, calm down, calm down, I've told commanders at all levels about this before, don't worry. Don't get so excited! Li Nian saw that Hu Bin was so anxious, and immediately persuaded Hu Bin to say.
Hu Bin heard it, and understood that he had just lost his temper, and after taking a few deep breaths, he calmed himself down.
On Li Qinwei's side, Li Qinwei completely isolated the position of this battalion according to what had been agreed before, and only doctors could enter. And it can only be in and not out.
Now they can't look at the situation inside. I can only wait anxiously in the headquarters, a battalion of more than 1,000 people, a such disease will put down a battalion, and I am afraid of spreading, once it spreads, it will be fatal. The whole division is in trouble!
"Division commander, there's a telegram from Brother Bin!" A staff officer at the division headquarters came over with a telegram and said.
"Well~ The method has been said before, and it is estimated that he has no better way, and now the Artemisia annua is already cooking, I hope it will be useful!" Li Qinwei took the telegram. looked at it and said.
"Hope Camp 1092 is okay! If something happens, the trouble will be big, and the whole army will fall into panic, the soldiers are not afraid of fighting, but they are afraid of the unknown, such fear is much more terrifying than going to the battlefield! The political commissar next to him also said with a sad face.
And at this time, there was also a battalion on the side of the 99th Division that had this situation, and then several other divisions also had such a situation, mainly because it rained for most of the month, and all the mosquitoes came out, carrying such a virus and spreading it everywhere!
"Report, Commander Wei sent a telegram, there is also such a situation on their side, and now they are treating diseases with Artemisia annua, I don't know what the effect is, they also had such a situation yesterday!" A staff officer came to Hu Bin's side and spoke.
"Whew, I'll have to wait, Made!" After Hu Bin learned of this situation, he sat in the headquarters irritably, and the entire headquarters fell into a gloom, everyone knew that playing pendulums was not a joke, and it could kill people!
That night, Hu Bin didn't dare to sleep at the headquarters, Hu Bin gave orders to each unit, and reported the situation of malaria once an hour, as well as the treatment of Artemisia annua, but as more troops appeared in this situation, Hu Bin couldn't sit still.
So far, more than 30,000 people have had this situation, and the speed of spread is very fast, Wei Lihuang's side is too, according to the latest statistics, more than 50,000 people have been infected on their side!
"Xiaobin, Xiaobin, don't worry, don't worry!" Li Nian saw Hu Bin walking back and forth in the command center, and persuaded Hu Bin to say.
"Can I not be in a hurry? If it spreads at this rate, tomorrow, all our troops will be in trouble, and their combat effectiveness will be directly reduced to zero! Hu Bin said a little angrily.
Of course, he was not angry at Li Nian, but for this situation, Hu Bin was angry without a bottom in his heart, although he knew that this could be treated, but at that time, the treatment of malaria was a medicine, not this kind of medicine to be boiled, so Hu Bin didn't know if it would work at all!
Hu Bin stayed in the headquarters until more than 5 o'clock, and he couldn't stay up, so he took a nap, and at this time, more than 50,000 people from various units reported that they had fallen ill.
"Brother Bin, the latest report has just been sent, and this situation has also appeared in Mandalay, which is even more serious than our side, Japan has more than 100,000 troops in Mandalay, and many of them have this situation!" A staff officer came over with a telegram and whispered to Hu Bin's side, Hu Bin heard it, raised his head, and looked carefully.
"When the special regiment went out to operate, did you bring Artemisia annua?" Hu Bin suddenly spoke.
He wasn't interested in what the devils were in Mandalay, and he was worried about whether the soldiers of the Special Forces Corps who were out on a mission had brought this herb with them.
"Bring, each soldier brought 2 catties of such herbs, and in order to make it easier to carry, we chopped up the Artemisia annua!" Mo Shu immediately said that he had already sent a telegram to the special regiment before, and Fang Lei had already replied to the telegram, saying that he had brought it all!
"Okay, it's good to carry it, once there is a situation, start boiling it immediately, and the fighters who have contact with him should also start drinking, how did he break out so quickly!" Hu Bin stood up at this time, walked outside, went to the well outside the headquarters, fetched a bucket of water, and washed his face!
Then Hu Bin continued to return to the command headquarters and asked Li Nian to go to sleep and just keep an eye on it. Li Nian heard it, and lay directly on the recliner of the headquarters and didn't go back!
By noon, the number of sick people had increased to 70,000, almost halfway through, and Wei Lihuang's side was even more, more than 110,000, and the whole army was completely in fear, and everyone was afraid of the soldiers!
And Commander Jiang in Chongqing and Commander Mao in Yan'an are also in a hurry now, the troops of the expeditionary force are all elite soldiers, and every soldier who is pulled into the country can serve as the squad leader and deputy squad leader, and now this situation has appeared in this elite army, who is not worried!
"I really didn't expect that when I went to fight in Southeast Asia, the biggest enemy was not the devil, but malaria, hey!" The commander saw the telegram sent by Hu Bin, and the number of words was still increasing, so he was worried.
"Before Hu Bin went to Southeast Asia, he knew that such a problem might arise, none of us paid attention to this at the beginning, it was all arranged by Hu Bin, no one thought that this thing would break out, it was so terrifying!" The commander-in-chief also said quite anxiously.
These soldiers are the wealth of the troops, it is impossible for the commander-in-chief's soldiers not to worry, last night, he didn't sleep all night, couldn't sleep, hundreds of thousands of troops, faced with such a situation!
And in the afternoon, Hu Bin's eyes were already red, people sat there in a daze, in the face of such a situation, no one has a better way, the medicine is now all used, just to find a way to contain it.
"Brother Bin, Brother Bin, Brother Monk sent a telegram, some of the soldiers in the 1092 battalion have completely subsided their fever, and the rash on their bodies is gone, among them, the soldiers of the large army have not had diarrhea for more than 2 hours!" Mo Ji ran over with a telegram and said happily to Hu Bin.
"What?" When Hu Bin heard it, he stood up in shock, and Li Dalong and Li Nian also ran over.
"You see, this is a telegram from Brother Monk, it's been 2 hours, according to the telegram sent by the doctor over there, the soldiers are all feverish now, the fever is gone!" Mo Shu handed the telegram to Hu Bin and said very excitedly, and Hu Bin held the telegram, and his excited hands were already shaking.
"Come on, send a telegram to the whole army, the 1092 battalion has improved, which shows that we have no problem in defeating malaria, and the soldiers must listen to the doctor's words and take medicine on time and in accordance with the amount!" Hu Bin said excitedly.
"Yes!" At this time, the staff officers of the entire command also became happy.
They were worried about this problem before, and from this time on, telegrams were sent from various places, and the soldiers began to have a fever, and Wei Lihuang also sent a telegram, saying that they already had troops that began to improve, and Artemisia annua was really useful!
At about 11 o'clock in the evening, the good news continued to be received from various places, although the number of sick people was still increasing, but now there was hope for treatment, Hu Bin was not so worried, as long as the troops did not have non-combat attrition, Hu Bin could accept it.
And the devils in Mandalay are not so lucky, the Japanese base camp urgently transferred a large number of medicines to Southeast Asia, and the devils in Southeast Asia, not only in Mandalay, but also in many troops in Southeast Asia. (To be continued.) )
