Chapter 13: The Plague Epidemic
Since Pan Meiren served as the chief of staff of the Niangzi Yunwei Regiment, she has become much more active in bed. When she grabbed it, Ouyang Yun screamed in pain, he broke out in a cold sweat, and then opened his eyes, but it was Chen Jiayao who came into his eyes.
Chen Jiayao's eyelids were red and swollen, and she looked very haggard.
The dazzling light dazzled Ouyang Yun's eyes, and it took him a while to get used to it, and then he asked Chen Jiayao, who was awakened, "Jiayao?" Why are you here? As soon as he finished saying this, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then the door was opened, and many people walked in. The roar just now alarmed everyone nearby. Ouyang Yun fell ill in the Army General Hospital, and he could be infected with the plague virus. Cai Yingjun did not dare to take it lightly, and not only set up a special expert group to ensure timely and effective treatment of the commander-in-chief, but also set up a special escort team.
"Big brother!" Chen Jiayao grabbed his hand, and tears flowed down her face.
Ouyang Yun didn't know the situation herself, in the eyes of others, her illness was menacing, but it almost caused panic. What she didn't know was that in the General Headquarters, Ji Xingwen and the others were sitting there, ready to deal with all misfortunes. In the border area of Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi, the front-line troops of the Cadet Army were loaded with guns and ammunition and were ready for battle.
The emergence of this plague was so coincidental that anyone who had just heard the news instinctively thought that it was a Japanese conspiracy. It was not a day or two that the Japanese wanted to defeat the Xuebing Army, and the assassination of Ouyang Yun was organized N times, in view of this, they instinctively moved this incident closer to this aspect, and it was not groundless.
"Big brother, you slowly recuperate, I will accompany you," Chen Jiayao said, telling the others to go away, then picked up a cotton swab and dipped it in water and applied it to his lips.
"I ask you why you're here? Isn't it already locked down here? Ouyang Yun, who understood, asked sternly, not at all moved by her "tenderness".
The Army General Hospital was turned into a quarantine area, where entry and exit were strictly forbidden. Guangzhou is already only allowed to enter but not out, how can Chen Jiayao still appear here? If anyone takes his quarantine order as a deaf ear, then it is very likely that the Cadet Army will be destroyed by this plague.
Ouyang Yun was unsympathetic, but Chen Jiayao was even more moved. She knew that he was doing this for her own good, but she had thought about it, if something happened to him, would she live alone? "Big brother, I asked to come in after I learned the Tao myself, and it's none of anyone's business. Big brother, if something happens, do you think I'll live alone? You don't have to worry about it, the rat extermination operation is going smoothly now, the results just counted, there are more than 20,000 rats that have been eliminated in Guangzhou, and the charming people are worried about these things outside, and your task now is to take care of your body. ”
Ouyang Yun wanted to sit up, but as soon as he moved, he felt a sense of weakness and dizziness. He continued to lie down and said, "Call Liu Kui, I need to know the situation at any time." ”
"Wait a minute, I'll call him."
Liu Kui came, this kid's body was down, although he had been following Ouyang Yun, he was not infected. Since Liu Bingguo was diagnosed with the plague, the faces of all those in the know have been particularly solemn. Plague In this era, one of the representatives of the plague in the world, anyone who knows what the plague is all about, their first reaction will be intimidated. Liu Kui brought many new situations, and it was only at this time that Ouyang Yun realized that he had been in a coma for a day or two nights. The quarantine did not cause panic, because the news was controlled in time, and the performance of the air force unit was excellent, so the people thought that there was really going to be a fierce battle, and regarded it as martial law, so they were very cooperative. The campaign was going well, but the bad news was that just two blocks from the Army General Hospital, Silk Street, had seen rat litters die. In addition, people who have been in contact with Liu Bingguo have been found by the local fox pupil organization and sent someone to send them back, including Xiao Yi, so far, no one has shown symptoms of cold and fever.
Ouyang Yun's biggest concern is that Liu Bingguo and they have come into contact with some people during the withdrawal process to spread the virus unlimitedly, and if the plague spreads throughout the country, it is very likely to change the outcome of the Sino-Japanese war.
"The place where there are dead rats should be isolated immediately, those dead rats and dead domestic animals or something, they should be burned and ......buried deeply" Ouyang Yun tried his best to recall the method of dealing with the plague virus in his mind, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his sallow face, Chen Jiayao saw it and persuaded: "Big brother, don't worry about this, these things should be left to Dean Cai and other professionals." What you just said, they've done it. There is Minister Ji in Guangzhou City, do you still have deep worries? ”
Hearing her say this, Ouyang Yun knew that he was in love. I was frightened by some historical phenomenon about the plague in my mind, or maybe I was entangled in the butterfly effect and was afraid that I would become a historical sinner. There is no need to think about how Chen Jiayao came in now, but from the fact that she resolutely came to her side in this situation, this affection is enough to explain everything.
Well, the most hopeful good news now is that the plague is under control. Then, hmph, the so-called tooth for tooth and blood for blood, as long as Lao Tzu does not die, I will return to them double what the little devil gave us - from the confirmation of the first case of plague to the first death due to plague, a week has passed. The first case to die of plague was Zhang Dan, an excellent sniper of the Sun Sheng-level brigade commander of the Wolf Tooth Special Operations Brigade, who unfortunately contracted the plague virus because he had carried the latter for a long time on the way back to Guangzhou to escort Liu Bingguo, and was not rescued.
Ouyang Yun was already able to walk on the ground after treatment, he was confirmed to have plague and was the first to be treated, and what made many people feel strange was that the people who came into contact with him during his illness were not infected.
When Zhang Dan died, it was the time when the plague was most raging in the Army General Hospital and the surrounding areas, and during this time, there were more than 20,000 patients with fever alone, of which nearly half were diagnosed with plague.
With the increasing number of fever people in Guangzhou, it is no longer possible to control the news. Short-term martial law may be acceptable to the public, but once it is necessary to enforce military control for a long time, the news must be truthfully announced.
"Only if it is made public, I am sure, the people of Guangzhou will understand. We should now be proud that it turns out that because of our efforts, the plague did not spread beyond Canton. Also, Xiao Yi and they can now confirm that they are not infected, which is really lucky for the country," Ouyang Yun held a conference call at the Army General Hospital on the night of Zhang Dan's death, and at the meeting, he first said this.
"It's time to make it public, and there are already people who suspect the motives of our military management. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a sin committed by a little devil, why should we be charged with this crime by the military junta? Old Bonn came to me today and asked me why some areas of the city were not allowed for them Jews to enter, and I was speechless," Jiang Shuren spoke next, and he fully supported Ouyang Yun's decision, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he put all the blame on the Japanese.
Ji Xingwen is also the most conservative one because of the different roles he plays, he said: "Will it cause panic among the people? According to information sent by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Fox Hitomi, the Japanese have recently been preparing to move in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. I am worried that if the people panic and even flee, it will not expand the area where the plague is endemic, and once the plague flows into the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, it will be unpredictable. ”
Jiang Guangnai and Li Tieshu had similar opinions, both of them were at the forefront at this time, and they were most worried about whether the plague would flow into the barracks, and the former asked: "Commander-in-chief, please forgive me for taking the liberty of treating the plague now?" It takes some time for plague epidemics to be extinguished, and effective treatment can shorten the cycle. ”
Ouyang Yun said: "After some time ago, we have found antibiotics that can effectively treat plague, but because the pharmaceutical factory has just transformed to produce this antibiotic, the reserve of drugs is very problematic." I estimate that in the next period of time, a large number of people may die in the city, and after this time, the situation will be better as the supply of medicine is in place. Minister Ji's concerns are very reasonable, but I think it is necessary to be public. Now is not the time for the Qing Dynasty government, and the road of deceiving the people must not be taken, otherwise there will be counterproductive results. Well, if the situation allows, I'll be on TV tonight and officially announce it. ”
Li Tieshu: "The Japanese have come up with such vicious methods this time, we must fight back." Commander-in-chief, ladies and gentlemen, it is estimated that the next Hankou Battle will not have our share - Wang Zhaoming will definitely not let our army participate in the war. Then, let's give the little devils a little color on our territory, which can be regarded as helping the national army in the direction of Hankou to relieve a little pressure. What do you guys think? ”
Ouyang Yun said: "This time I will definitely ask the Japanese for justice, as for how to do it, let's go back to this, the first problem we are facing now is how to extinguish this plague." So, I'll make it public later? Everyone, are you okay? ”
"Everything is up to the Commander-in-Chief!"
