Chapter 57: A Terrible Cold
With the help of Sweden and the Qing Dynasty, the operation to establish the Grand Duchy of Kievan Rus' was rapidly launched. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The capital of the country was built in Kiev, where there are ready-made cities and the population is relatively concentrated.
Catherine reused a local Kiev man with a relatively high prestige, this Kiev named Shevchenko, who had a high prestige in the city of Kiev.
Most importantly, Shevchenko is also capable of doing a good job of governing the local area.
Shevchenko believes that now that Kievan Rus' has just been established, it is necessary to grant amnesty to the world and use all available forces to establish the state of Kievan Rus' on the Eastern European Plain as soon as possible, which will help win the hearts of the people and then vigorously develop the national economy.
Ekaterina listened to Shevchenko's advice and immediately appointed him prime minister of the Grand Duchy of Kievan Rus', authorizing him to form a cabinet based on it.
Prime Minister, that is, the meaning of the Chief Prime Minister, of course, this is Yang Meng's suggestion. Today's Europe and other countries in the world, although they have not yet implemented this system, but there are already signs, Yang Meng is a little shameless to invent this system first.
There is no doubt that the importance of the prime minister is self-evident, and he is responsible not only to the princes and nobles, but also to the people.
Shevchenko boldly threw out a theory: the communal ownership of land.
Although this theory is not exactly the same as the public ownership of land in later generations, it also has the same effect. All land was nationalized and then leased to the people for cultivation.
According to the system of the state, the people pay various taxes, and the state relies on the taxes to maintain the revenue and expenditure of the national treasury.
This system shocked Catherina, but Yang Meng was very surprised, he almost thought that this Shevchenko was also a traverser.
A newly established country, with such a system, will certainly inspire people, so that the enthusiasm of the people will be thoroughly mobilized, and the country will stabilize in a short period of time.
At the same time, Shevchenko proposed to open the port to attract investors from all over the world to invest in the Grand Duchy of Kievan Rus, and to establish the industrial chain of the Grand Duchy of Kievan Rus in the shortest possible time.
"With Shevchenko here, Lao Tzu seems to be superfluous, Caterina, your luck in this life is really not bad, with me, a traverser, to support you, and also pick up a baby minister like Shevchenko, Kievan Rus', will definitely be able to rise quickly and fight against the evil country."
In the face of Shevchenko's policy measures, Yang Meng secretly praised that he did not stay long in the Grand Duchy of Kievan Rus, and after leaving some firearms, he and Luluo left Kiev, while Mei Niang stayed to protect Ekaterina and the child in her belly.
Returning to the expeditionary force camp in the lower reaches of the Volga River, Yang Meng got bad news.
Colds, colds began to spread among the expeditionary forces!
In the 21st century, a cold is just a minor ailment, just buy some cold medicine and you can be cured. But in this day and age, colds are a fatal illness because there are no antibiotics now.
Summoning a meeting of Wu Tian, Tan Da, Zheng Xiong, Zhao Jin and Hu Jian, Yang Meng asked, "How many people in each column are infected with the wind cold?" How's it going? ”
Wu Tian said: "General, eighty percent of the brothers are infected with the wind cold, and the situation is very bad. The subordinates searched for all the herbs within a radius of hundreds of miles and collected a lot of ginger, but it was just a temporary delay. It's too cold in this place, General, I think we should withdraw our troops quickly and go back to our Daqing. ”
"Yes, General, the brothers who are infected with the wind and cold, one by one have a high fever, babbling nonsense, unable to eat, unable to drink, the situation is not good. If this continues, our brothers will not die on the battlefield, but in the hospital bed! The subordinates believe that the withdrawal of the military is the best policy! Zheng Xiong also said.
Yang Meng frowned, secretly thinking that the territory of this evil country is really cold, this may also be one of the reasons for the continuous expansion of the evil country.
When Chinese people come here, they are not accustomed to the water and soil, and it is normal for them to not be able to adapt to the climate here in the short term.
It seems that we must find a way to cure these people's colds first.
As for the withdrawal of troops, it will definitely not work, and it is not easy to fight here, how can it be possible to give up?
But how to cure a cold, Yang Meng didn't have a problem for a while, in this place, the herbs are not strong.
Suddenly, Tan Da said, "General, why don't you go and ask Miss Panpan to come?" Panpan girl's saliva, even serious injuries could be cured at the beginning, this bit of wind and cold, shouldn't it be a problem? ”
When Yang Meng heard this, he immediately laughed: "Yes, how did I forget this stubble?" Go back and settle all the brothers who are infected with the wind and cold, and soon, the girl will come soon. ”
"Yes, General!"
Yang Meng then let the green pothos fly to Changbai Mountain and invited Panpan.
Panpan's arrival made Yang Meng breathe a sigh of relief.
Yang Meng instructed each column to boil ginger soup, and Panpan dripped her saliva into the ginger soup, and then let the soldiers who were infected with the wind and cold take it.
The effect, obviously, the 10,000-year-old ginseng demon, sure enough, the shot will have an effect!
After only three days, the cold was stopped.
"Report to the general, all the soldiers in our department who are infected with wind and cold have been cured!"
"Report to the general! After our soldiers took the decoction, the wind and cold disease has been cured! ”
"General, Miss Panpan is really powerful, our soldiers are all right, in this way, we don't have to withdraw our troops!"
"Haha, we can't withdraw our troops, stand firm, and after the spring of next year, we will expand our territory!"
......
Yang Meng was secretly embarrassed in his heart, if he didn't look forward to this demon, the future of the expeditionary force would be worrying, and the place of the evil country was really not easy to conquer.
The cold virus of the expeditionary force was under control, but the countries and tribes on the Eastern European Plain were also affected by the cold virus.
Countries that originally lived in the cold Eastern European Plain have adapted to this climate, but this year's climate is much colder.
This is fatal, and many ordinary people have been killed by this minor disease.
The Turghat Khanate was also affected, and there were widespread deaths of herders and livestock.
Ayuqi Khan is obviously helpless against this phenomenon, God doesn't do anything, and he can't help it.
The situation of the Turghat Khanate also attracted Yang Meng's attention, although the Turghat Khanate was a little dissatisfied with the fact that the Qing expeditionary force did not destroy the evil army on the other side, and still did not express its stance to join the Qing Dynasty.
But Yang Meng didn't want to lose this power, and in the spring of next year, he was still counting on the help of the Turks.
Yang Meng asked Panpan to contribute some more saliva, ordered someone to rub some pills, and then went to see Ayuqi Khan in person.
Ayuqi Khan, who had a sad face, looked much older, and the leader of the Turks was heartbroken by the constant death of his people.
Seeing Yang Meng, Ayuqi Khan said lightly: "General, what's the matter?" ”
Yang Meng smiled and said: "Great Khan, General Ben has sent you a panacea, this panacea, which specializes in treating wind and cold infections!" ”
Hearing this, Ayuqi Khan stood up excitedly.
