Mrs. Ding's family left, and Sun Yi and others also went to play their own ways. The hall was much quieter. Sun Ce finished drinking the leftover porridge in the bowl, and while picking his teeth, he sighed, asking Yuan Quan to take care of him. Ding Ruyi and his son were both hard-working and forced to come to ask others for help. It was not easy for them. Mrs. Ding is another person who wants face. She said that the supply is enough and she is afraid of being stubborn. She suddenly added five people, including two and a half-old boys. Her quota for supply is definitely not enough. She probably paid for it to buy it from Pingyu.

"Food is easy to deal with, medicine is a problem." Yuan Quan asked someone to bring a bowl of ginger soup and said, "Drink it quickly. Winter is coming soon and it is easy to catch a cold. If you don't move back to the workshop, I will arrange for someone to install all the wall panels and block the windows. I have prepared a few sachets, and you will bring one later, so be prepared for any trouble."

Sun Ce felt that Yuan Quan was a little worried. Ding Ruyi and Xiahou said that he had been coughing all the time, but he was in good health. Not only did he practice boxing every day, but he also went into the water to swim when he had the chance, how could he catch a cold? Besides, he always hated bringing sachets and other things, isn’t this a forceful way?

"What's wrong with the drug? Many people are sick in the workshop?"

"There are a lot more recently, most of which are infected by newly recruited craftsmen." Yuan Quan walked over with a sachet and tied them to Sun Ce's belt without saying a word. "These refugees were hungry and full. They often slept in the open some time ago. After being cold, they used up all the medicines prepared in the workshop..."

"I'll go!" Sun Ce's face suddenly changed drastically. He reached out and grabbed Yuan Quan's wrist and said anxiously: "Many of those craftsmen are sick?"

Yuan Quan was surprised. "It's not too much, it's about 30%." She suddenly thought of something, and her face changed drastically. "Husband, you can't say..." She subconsciously covered her mouth and did not dare to say anything further.

Sun Ce didn't care what Yuan Quan would think, so he jumped up and rushed to the military plan. Yuan Quan also stood up and greeted Yin Xi and Mi Lan, asking them to arrange for people to clean the water pavilion immediately, and prepared sacrifices to worship the God of Epidemic. Yin Xi and Mi Lan were frightened and hurriedly followed.

The water pavilion suddenly became busy.

Sun Ce rushed to the Military Planning Office and saw Guo Jiaxu clenching his fists, covering his mouth, coughing lightly while explaining to Pang Tong, Zhang Si and others. Seeing Sun Ce rushing to come, Guo Jia was a little surprised. "General, what happened?"

Sun Ce stared at Guo Jia. "Are you sick? Wasn't you doing well last night?"

"Probably I got a little cold last night." Guo Jia smiled and said, "It's okay. I've used medicine and drank ginger soup. After making arrangements, I'll go back to sleep later and sweat, and it's fine."

"Do you still have a headache?" Sun Ce covered Guo Jia's forehead, feeling a little hot, and was worried that his hands were cold. He was about to try it with his lips, but Guo Jia pushed him away and smiled and said, "Okay, it's a little hot, but it doesn't matter, I know it myself."

"You have several farts." Sun Ce said sternly: "Many of the refugees who came with Yu Ji are sick. It is likely that it is the epidemic. Immediately start the plan and conduct a thorough investigation. Zhongsi, please go back to Pingyu and notify Ling Zun to prepare. Nearly 30,000 refugees are farming around Pingyu, which is the biggest hidden danger. Shi Yuan, 600 miles in expedition, please send doctors to reinforce Nanyang Bencaotang."

When Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others heard this, their faces changed drastically. After looking at each other for a moment, they responded with a loud voice. The military plan immediately turned to the highest alert and the military plan took action separately according to the plans they had prepared before. The map was hung up, and the routes passed by the refugees were marked out by [      Update Fast]. Wherever they are now located are marked one by one. The locations that need key warnings are circled out with red lines. The places where doctors and medicines may be provided are also circled out, how to mobilize materials and how to block the epidemic, and presented them one by one on the map.

Sun Ce paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, his heart pounding. Is this Yu Ji a plague god? By chance, he landed in Donglai and happened to pass through Langya and Pengcheng. These places were the places where the battle was fought a few months ago. If it was really an epidemic, then the trouble would be great.

"General, don't be too nervous, the possibility of the epidemic is not high." Guo Jia walked over and stood a few steps away from Sun Ce. "The war has been over for four or five months. If it were an epidemic, there should have been news from Qingxu. I guess it was the refugees who suffered a cold..."

"Wind and cold are also contagious, and people can die." Sun Ce interrupted Guo Jia and secretly blamed himself. Guo Jia and his friends had only a slight understanding of infectious diseases. They should be prepared. In the past life, it was SARS and then the avian influenza. After several major epidemics, he was very clear about the lethality of the epidemic. Moreover, reading historical books in the previous life often regretted the outbreak of the epidemic in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms. Why is it so neglected now?

The spread of the epidemic is usually related to the flow of people. The more frequent the flow, the faster the epidemic spreads. The reason why global epidemics broke out in the 21st century was because of convenient transportation. With the help of advanced transportation facilities such as aviation, the epidemic can spread to major cities around the world during the incubation period. In ancient times, inconvenient transportation, the epidemic was usually related to trade routes. The prosperous trade routes could not only circulate goods, but also spread the epidemic. The army and refugees were often an important medium for the spread of the epidemic, and war was also one of the main reasons for the outbreak. Tens of thousands of people gathered together, and the domestic sewage, excrement and corpses produced were important sources of the epidemic. War often occurred in major transportation routes and was extremely convenient to spread.

Therefore, the ancients summarized an experience: after a large army, there will be a great epidemic.

There are not many places where the war broke out this year. There is one at the junction of Qing, Xu and Yanzhou, and one at Youzhou. Both places are related to themselves. There is also a possibility of an outbreak in Guanzhong where drought occurs, but the number of deaths is limited, and it has been settled in the autumn harvest. Even if the epidemic is affected, it will not be too great.

Sun Ce felt his mind a little confused. He walked around for a few times and saw Guo Jia standing opposite him, looking at him helplessly and frowned.

"Fengxiao, what's wrong?"

"General, even if there is an epidemic, it is useless for you to be anxious. The epidemic has been going on for decades, and nothing is strange. If the soldiers come to stop them, the water comes to cover them, and the soil comes to find a doctor. If the epidemic occurs, it is useless for urgent matters. At this moment, it is key to be prepared and strictly prevent someone from taking advantage of the situation to rob him."

Sun Ce thought for a while. "Who are you worried about? Yuan Shao?"

Guo Jia nodded. "Yuan Shao has received support from small and medium-sized families in northern Jizhou, and his strength has increased sharply. He must use this opportunity to expand his territory and reward those who follow him to attract more support. Shen Pei and others are threatened and will take the initiative to fight for the opportunity to make meritorious service. Zhang was entrusted by the court and wanted to defend Youzhou. If he could negotiate with Yuan Shao, he would not refuse. If the negotiations failed, he would also focus on defending and would not take the initiative to attack. If Yuan Shao could win quickly, he would stop. If he could not win quickly, and there was a major epidemic in Yuzhou and Jizhou was not bad, he would likely make peace with Zhang Ze, let Zhang suppress Gongsun Zan, and turn to the south to take advantage of the situation to rob him."

"Can Jizhou be safe?"
