Chapter 164 Panic
Chapter 164 Panic
After the incident in the stable, there was no change for several days, except that the soldier had a fever. The soldier had caught a cold before, and Chang Yue had been treating him as she would treat a cold, but he kept having a fever again and again, which puzzled her.
"Doctor Chang, it's bad. Xiao Guo has a boil on his wound and he's starting to have recurring abdominal pain."
Military doctors are generally good at treating external injuries, and they have never seen this before. Chang Yue intuitively feels that this is not simple.
"Doctor Du, Xiao Guo should be placed in a separate room, and anyone who comes into contact with him must wear gloves and masks. I will take care of him myself."
Chang Yue went to see what she had cultivated, but there was no change. She couldn't help but wonder, is this really the bacteria that the adults talked about? But she couldn't see it, so she couldn't determine the treatment method.
She looked up the list of medicines again, corresponding to the symptoms and instructions for use.
Du Jiao quickly took a few of his men and carried the soldier named Guo Er to a separate tent. He was a little worried about sharing the same tent with all the soldiers.
"Don't go out for the next few days. Stop the training for now. We'll have people deliver the food. If it's convenient, use the toilet first."
"Doctor Du, what happened to us? Why?"
The soldiers began to panic. According to what the elders had said in the past, isolating people alone would only happen when there was a plague.
"Stop talking nonsense and follow orders! I still have to report to the general."
No matter big or small, everything has to be reported. If he fails to report it, he doesn't want to be punished by military law.
"General!"
Jiang Lu was drawing a map, bit by bit, which was more detailed than the one Qin Xingfu gave.
"What's the matter?"
Du Jiao saluted and replied.
"Guo Er, who was previously in charge of cleaning the stable, was accidentally scratched by broken pieces of pottery in the horse manure. He was fine the day before yesterday, but today he developed boils, abdominal pain, and a persistent high fever."
Jiang Lu looked serious.
"Is the soldier now in solitary confinement? Also, who are the people he has had contact with recently?"
While he was still asking questions, another military doctor came forward to report.
"General, many soldiers today have high fever and swollen throats. Two of them also have severe abdominal pain and blood in their stools."
"What? How could this happen?"
Jiang Lu was also panicked at this time. With so many people, if something went wrong, his heads would not be enough to make amends.
Xuhe comforted him.
"Take him, don't panic yet, let's see if there is anything in common among these. We will follow the adults' instructions and see..."
Before Xuhe could finish speaking, the manager in charge of the stable came hurriedly to report.
"General! It's bad! Several horses in the stable have died. Their deaths were very strange! They were very hot and had edema!"
Jiang Lu was shocked and immediately led his men to the stable to check the situation. The dead horse was hot, severely swollen, and emitted a foul odor.
"What is going on?" Jiang Lu frowned, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
Xuhe said thoughtfully: "Could this be the enemy's strategy, to throw some kind of germs in horse manure and then infect people?"
Chang Yue also received the news and rushed over.
"I also suspect that it is caused by some kind of bacteria, but I am still unable to determine what type of bacteria it is and what medicine to use."
Jiang Lu made a prompt decision, "Immediately seal off the stables and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving! Check all horses and immediately isolate any abnormalities! At the same time, treat the sick soldiers with all our strength. In addition, strengthen vigilance to prevent sneak attacks by the enemy!"
"Here!"
Everyone took the order and left, and a battle with the invisible began.
Chang Yue knew that time was running out, so she decided to speed up her research in the hope of finding a cure for the disease as soon as possible.
Seeing that the things she had cultivated were still not moving, she had to force herself to calm down and look for the answer in the thick prevention and control manual.
"My lord, the security over there seems to be even tighter."
Liu Bang was doing nothing, but when he heard the spy say this, he immediately became excited.
"Haha...it looks like it's starting to work. It's only been eight days. Wait two more days, and then we'll launch an attack if they can't control themselves anymore!"
Damn it, he'd had enough of hiding in the mountains. He could get so many good things without any effort, enough for him to build a country.
Zhang Liang has had enough of this kind of life these days. Now he also hopes to win. If he loses this game, he will never have another chance!
Jianglu made arrangements in an orderly manner, while Xuhe thought of a good idea and discussed it secretly with Jianglu.
"Ah? Is this... possible?"
"All's fair in war. They were the ones who used the virus to harm us first. We can also use their tricks against them and catch them in a trap! We can take them down with minimal losses."
“What if they don’t fall for it?”
"That depends on the soldiers' performance. Teach me!"
Xuhe could vaguely guess their intention. Instead of being led around everywhere by others, it would be better to take the initiative.
Jiang Lu pondered for a long time, felt that it made sense, and agreed.
"it is good!"
So, Liu Bang and others would report every day.
"My lord, I saw with my own eyes that the soldiers' steps were unsteady, and some even fainted while walking."
"Also, they dug a big pit, carried a lot of things and threw them in, and then set it on fire."
Liu Bang was still quite suspicious, so he went to investigate the situation himself and found that many people indeed looked pale, and more than a dozen people had tried to escape but were caught.
"Don't go back! I don't want to die!"
Those who were caught were shouting loudly.
"Shut up! Take them all back and punish them by military law!"
Liu Bang was overjoyed and felt that these people were simply hopeless. If he could recruit them all under his command, he would be able to defeat a hundred enemies alone.
At this time, Jianglu came out on horseback.
"Listen to me, everyone. We are in great danger now. If anyone dares to do this again, I will report it to His Majesty and punish all of his clans! Take him back and let others open the door and watch the end of such a person!"
Liu Bang knew that the Qin army had strict military discipline, and if they allowed people to risk their lives to escape, then something big must have happened in the city.
So he decided to launch an attack overnight, but Zhang Liang suspected there was something fishy going on.
"My lord, we still need to wait and see. This is going too smoothly after all!"
"Humph! I am a man who is protected by the destiny of heaven, which means that the heavens are helping me. The Qin Dynasty will definitely be destroyed by me! Cook all the food, eat it up and then launch a surprise attack tonight! After tonight, we will have weapons and food, and we won't have to wait here to piss!"
"Ow ooh..."
Many people were still quite happy. Many seemed to have seen the joy and hurriedly sharpened their knives faster.
"Xuhe, do you think these people will really be fooled?"
Jiang Lu, who had been performing for several days, was a little worried. He was afraid that they would not come, and he was also afraid that they would make trouble.
"Yes! They probably don't have enough food. This is their chance to fight."
More than a dozen horses did die in the barracks, and several soldiers were infected with the virus, but he himself was allergic to penicillin, so the only way to dispose of the bodies was to burn them.
