Chapter 7 Simple or Not Simple

Liu Xiang took out the documents and tokens left by Cao Yu and handed them to Cui Yi, "Please check them."

Cui Yi took it and looked through it carefully. His face became even more happy, "The token is real. You don't need to read the document. I can't read."

He felt that these doctors could not be fake.

Liu Xiang took back the documents and tokens, carefully put them away, then stretched out his hand to introduce doctors to Cui Yi. After both sides bowed and met, he said: "Captain Cui, please send someone to bring these fifty carts of grain and grass supplies."

Operate it into the camp and keep it properly. After we understand the condition, we can apply medicine to treat it."

Cui Yi immediately asked the onlooking sergeants to drive into the camp and arrange for it to be stored in the warehouse, guarding it carefully without mentioning it.

It is only said that Liu Xiang and his party came to the main tent of the Chinese army and obtained the roster. The roster recorded that there was one captain of Yuyang camp, his subordinates, and fifty personal soldiers; one military commander, his subordinates, and twenty-two law enforcement sergeants; and the military marquis.

Two people, each with ten soldiers, ten camp commanders, twenty team leaders, one hundred captains, two hundred corps commanders, and eight hundred soldiers, for a total of one thousand, two hundred and twenty-six people.

Fifty-seven people were out;

There are twenty-five absconders, including two military lords and their own soldiers, and three camp commanders;

There are 1,144 people in the camp.

After understanding the basic situation, Liu Xiang arranged for doctors to screen the patients.

After preliminary observation, 512 people were diagnosed with severe illness;

386 people had mild symptoms;

There were 246 asymptomatic people.

Liu Xiang found Cui Yi and said to him: "There are only a dozen doctors, and it is not enough to just rely on them. I think that only by using asymptomatic soldiers to assist the doctors can we quickly suppress the epidemic and cure the patients as soon as possible. Team Cui

What do you think?"

Cui Yixin said, how do I understand this? If you ask me to chop someone, I can think of a hundred ways to cure the disease? Does it count to chop off the head if the head hurts, or chop off the feet if the foot hurts?

"Liu Jun's arrangement is that someone like this who is fighting to kill a man, how can he know so much?"

Liu Xiang saw that Cui Yi had no objection, so he said: "The prefect has appointed me to be the person in charge of controlling the plague this time. I would like to report to the prefect and order Captain Cui to be the assistant envoy to help manage everything in the camp. I don't know if Mr. Cui is willing."

Help?"

Cui Yi took off his helmet and wiped the sweat from his head. He was also busy just now and felt even more tired. "I know that Liu Jun is capable of great things. This is to praise Cui. But Liu Jun has something."

Cui will obey all orders!"

"Cui Jun is willing to help, and the matter can be settled." Liu Xiang ordered Cui Yi to select personnel, and ordered each doctor to lead five soldiers to separate camps for severe and mild cases.

Order a hundred soldiers to fill a large vat with lime water and a large cauldron to boil concentrated salt water for disinfection.

He also ordered the remaining people to work in teams of ten to eradicate weeds in the camp, fill in the puddles, and spread lime everywhere to eliminate the hidden dangers of mosquitoes and flies.

So busy until late at night, the disinfection of the branch camp was initially completed, and everyone went to rest after eating. This means that in the army, the organization and mobilization ability is strong, and Cui Yi has prestige, otherwise it will be delayed for an unknown amount of time.

Today, the morale of the army is strong, there are doctors in the camp to treat diseases, and there is plenty of food and grass supplies. Although there are many things, they don't know what the regulations are, but they just know that they are treating diseases.

If you want to drink medicine, drink medicine,

Change clothes when asked to do so,

Just wipe yourself with salt water,

It's just that there are some places where the symptoms are severe, but that's fine. As for the treatment, just be patient.

Maybe it was because the medicine was symptomatic, or maybe it was a psychological effect, but everyone felt that the pain was relieved a lot, and the plague seemed to be over, and they felt very happy.

Liu Xiang was not so optimistic. He knew that the treatment of the plague had just begun. Fortunately, it was typhoid fever, which was only contagious through contact. If it was a respiratory disease, it would be fatal.

He planned to write a pamphlet on the prevention and treatment of typhoid fever, compiled into simple and easy-to-understand sentences, and let people recite it all the time tomorrow. When everyone knows how to prevent typhoid fever infection, typhoid fever will not be terrible, and many people will survive because of it.

He also provides some relief from the guilt of spreading typhoid fever.

Many people are grateful to him today, but if they knew that he was the one who instigated the spread of typhoid fever, would they tear him to pieces?

There are three other people who know about it, two are taking turns to keep vigil for him, and one is lurking in the wilderness, ready to raise troops at any time.

No, there may be a fourth one. If Deng Mao is not strict with his words, there may be a fifth one, a sixth one, and I don’t know how many more.

This is really annoying. Should we find a way to silence them?

They will soon become the commander-in-chief of a party with tens of thousands of troops. What can be done with them?

Liu Xiang sighed, spreading the plague, what a sin, anyone who knew about it would want to kill him, just like Deng Mao did.

If it hadn't aroused Deng Mao's ambition, he would have been killed by Deng Mao when he proposed that plan. There is something wrong with his mentality. He must pay attention to it in the future. Liu Xiang made a key point in his mind and must be cautious in the future.

, must be cautious.

Liu Xiang retracted his thoughts and looked at the simple measures to prevent the plague. It was indeed very simple, with only a few sentences in total.

Do not drink raw water or eat raw food;

Wash your hands before eating and clean after using the toilet;

Beware of mosquitoes and kill rats and ants;

Isolate sick people and disinfect their toilets.

Liu Xiang also wanted to include things like not sharing tableware, but it was really difficult to do it in the military, so let's just leave it like this. It was too complicated and difficult to promote.

Let’s analyze the specific situation in detail. Complex and professional matters should still be left to professionals. What the general public needs is simple, effective and easy to promote methods.

The simpler it is, the easier it is to promote, and the easier it is to promote, the more people will benefit.

This is not a contradiction. Even in modern times, not everyone can treat diseases and become a doctor, let alone the Han Dynasty where illiteracy was common.

That's it, have a good rest, there are still many things to do tomorrow.

I only did two things the next day.

First, they continued to disinfect with lime and concentrated salt water. Everyone had their bodies scrubbed with salt water. The horses were also pulled out and wiped with salt water. Some of the fierce-tempered horses kicked around, venting their dissatisfaction. People in the military camp shouted "horse neigh,"

Get rid of the lifeless look before.

The robes, armor, weapons, and objects that were often touched in the camp were all soaked in lime water, boiled in salt water, and dried everywhere. There was only one set of clothes left on me, which I planned to go through again tomorrow, which was about the same.

It's been completely disinfected.

The second thing is to dig a manhole, this is very important.

The main way of transmission of typhoid fever is the contamination of excreta. Feces must be disinfected centrally. You should also pay attention when it is convenient. Afterwards, put ash charcoal in the toilet, then put lime in it, and do a good job of preventing insects, mainly flies, cockroaches,

Then dump it into a manure pit and bury it deeply.

I found a corner in the camp, far away from my residence and away from water sources, and dug a lot of cesspits. The pits were not big, four feet deep, one foot long and one foot wide. The bottom was paved with plant ash and lime, and the excrement was dumped in a centralized manner.

Sprinkle lime and bury it with soil.

In fact, public toilets should be built, but there are no craftsmen or building materials. The toilets built haphazardly may not be tight and may easily cause secondary pollution, so we can only spend some effort. In the face of the plague, be careful and put in a little effort, and everyone can accept it.

There is also the matter of reciting epidemic prevention sentences. It is not difficult to recite a few sentences. Everyone will remember it after reciting it for a day, but they just don’t take it to heart. That needs time to test.

Cui Yi approached Liu Xiang and asked him in confusion, "Is it so simple to cure the plague?"

Liu Xiang smiled and said, "If you know the pathology and the prescription, it will be easy if you follow it; if you don't know the pathology and the prescription, it will be difficult if you can't follow it."

Cui Yi didn't know that generations of famous doctors had painstakingly studied the pathology of typhoid fever and the prescriptions for treating typhoid fever, and generations of Han people had risked their lives to verify it.

this…

But it's not simple at all.
