Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1597 Blocking Ten Mile Slopes

Qiu Xinggong's plot to kill him was uncovered, but Fang Jun didn't feel very lucky.

At first, the surviving villagers in the village were too frightened to go out at home because of the momentum of the army. When it calmed down a bit, some daring ones tremblingly opened the door and came out to check the situation.After it was confirmed that the village had been sealed off due to malaria, there was not much hysteria on the faces of the villagers except for the indifferent despair.

Guanzhong has been the center of the world since ancient times. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos. There were countless battles in Guanzhong. Half of the population died.Now the orphans back then are gradually growing up. After going through that turbulent time, seeing blood flow into rivers and corpses piling up like mountains, what else can't bear?
The villagers were silent at first, and then said nothing. They returned home with gray and hopeless expressions, and closed the door...

The river was flowing slowly, surrounded by lush forests, looking at this quiet and peaceful small village under the night, Fang Jun only felt a big stone pressing on his heart, and he couldn't breathe.

Plague, this is the devil that people talk about in every era, and people live in this era, and feel the despair and helplessness when the epidemic comes.

In later generations, even if the epidemic is raging for a while, it can be managed and controlled through advanced transportation, communication and other means. First, the epidemic area will be controlled within a certain range, and then the country and even the world's most advanced research institutes will conduct vaccine research. .

However, in Datang, everything depends on God's will...

Just as He Zongxian was arranging to arrange manpower to put the village under martial law, a group of cavalry rushed over aggressively.

The leader is Li Junxian, the commander of the "Hundred Knights"...

"Erro, what happened?"

Baiqisi's garrison is outside the Xuanwu Gate, separated by a wall from the garrisons of the left and right camps. Li Junxian naturally knew about the dispatch of soldiers and horses from the right camp, but at first he thought it was Fang Jun who was doing the training, so he didn't care. His subordinates followed from a distance, just grasping his whereabouts.

Although he knew that Fang Jun would not be able to engage in such things as setting up troops to cause chaos, but Baiqisi's duty was to monitor the officials and grasp all the information inside and outside Chang'an, and it would be dereliction of duty if he left it alone.

But then the information sent back by his subordinates made Li Junxian sweat profusely...

There are actually spies lurking in Shilipo, which is more than ten miles away in Chang'an, and I am still ignorant of it!

Such a group of people are hiding in the vicinity of Chang'an, if their goal is to assassinate the emperor, their crime will be unforgivable!

For this alone, if it were a cruel and ungrateful emperor, beheading him would be more than enough...

Immediately, Li Junxian led his staff to rush over.

Fang Jun waved his hand and said: "Be safe and don't be impatient, these people are not trying to commit regicide, but just someone intending to murder someone's life."

This kind of statement can clearly explain the motive of my own actions without informing the "Baiqisi".

Anyway, I was determined not to admit my desire to attack at first...

Li Junxian got off his horse and came to Fang Jun, and said with a wry smile, "What's the difference?"

Indeed, no matter what the purpose of these people is, it is his dereliction of duty to be able to lurk near Chang'an and escape his eyes.Fortunately, it was discovered early. If these people wait until these people mobilize, no matter what the target is, Li Junxian may not be able to escape the crime.

Fang Jun's face was heavy, he looked at the closed doors all around, and sighed: "There are more serious things than this..."

Then he told the news about the malaria infection in this village.

Li Junxian's face suddenly changed, and he lost his voice: "Malaria?!"

He was very aware of the dangers of malaria, but he had heard that several people in Guanzhong were infected with malaria, but they were all in the mountainous area north of Yunyang, but he never thought that it was so close!

Once malaria ravages Chang'an, it will cause far more harm than a team of assassins!

Fang Jun dusted off the dust on his body, and said: "Okay, since the general has arrived, then everything here will be handed over to the general, so I will take my brothers back to the barracks."

Regardless of whether he could get a confession against Qiu Xinggong from these "captives", Fang Jun could not handle this matter on his own, otherwise he might be beaten and fell into a passive position.As for the blockade of this village, it should be the responsibility of the Jingzhao Mansion, and it will not be under the jurisdiction of Fang Jun. Li Junxian will take over first, and then hand it over to the Jingzhao Mansion.

Youtunying performed very badly today, many soldiers were injured or injured, and they must pay for compensation after returning, but it is not necessary to stabilize the morale of the army, the roots are rotten, this army must be replaced...

However, Li Junxian didn't want to take over. If he knew about this group of lurking soldiers in advance, he would naturally have the duty to dispatch and exterminate them as soon as possible. But now that they have been captured, it is the matter of Dali Temple or the Criminal Department.

He doesn't care if things are not good for him. He hopes that he can make some harmless mistakes without endangering his life and family. If the emperor is dissatisfied with him and dismisses him, that would be the best things.

The position of the commander of the "Hundred Knights" is a hot kang, if you are not careful, you will rarely end well...

As for sealing off the village, it was not his duty, and he had no experience at all.

But after Fang Jun finished speaking, he patted his buttocks and ran away with the soldiers in the right camp under his hands, without giving him a chance to refuse.

Li Junxian smiled wryly, so he had to first order people to seal off the village under martial law, and then asked the emperor how to deal with these "assassins", and at the same time sent a letter to Jingzhao Mansion, asking them to quickly appoint officials with rich experience in dealing with the plague to take over.

The most important thing is that the news of the malaria outbreak here must not be spread outside, otherwise the hearts of the people will be turbulent and the capital will be unstable...

*****
Turning back and walking halfway, Fang Jun ordered He Zongxian to take the troops back to the barracks first, counted the list of casualties and pensions to calm people's hearts, and waited for him to sign the document tomorrow for formal implementation, while he himself went to the Foundry Bureau.

Malaria is terrible. In his previous life, Fang Jun only heard about a plague that often broke out in Africa on the Internet or on TV. Although China is not as good as developed countries in many places, the government has unified orders and prohibits them. It has super strong prevention and control of such incidents. level.He personally experienced the plague that swept across many countries around the world, and the Chinese government was able to obtain the minimum price under the backward conditions of medical facilities and social security, which did not give Fang Jun a too serious intuitive impression.

But if a plague of that scale strikes in the Tang Dynasty, it may be like the Black Death ravaged the European Middle Ages. Ten rooms and nine empty bones cover the wild, and the extinction of the family is possible...

Therefore, at present, Sun Simiao's research and development of artemisinin has become the top priority.

The Foundry Bureau is located in the south of Kunming Pool, not far from Shilipo. When Fang Jun arrived, although it was close to Xushi, the entire construction site of the Foundry Bureau was quiet, but the only courtyard allocated to Sun Simiao to develop artemisinin was brightly lit. .

This legendary figure is not only superb in medical skills, but also noble in medical ethics. According to Liu Shi, in order to develop artemisinin as soon as possible to save the world, Sun Simiao has been working non-stop for several days...

People who have set an example through the ages do have their own merits.

There were guards sent by the Ministry of War at the door, so naturally they didn't dare to stop Fang Jun when they saw Fang Jun, and let him enter.

Wearing a Taoist robe, Sun Simiao was directing people to put medicinal materials into a large cauldron in the courtyard. All steaming.

Seeing Fang Jun approaching, Sun Simiao glared and said, "What are you doing here? Go, go!"

The old Taoist's eyeballs were a little red, but he was in good spirits.

Fang Jun was puzzled, but it was just to develop drugs, not some kind of biochemical weapon, so let no one enter?
Sun Simiao came up to pull him away, and said as he walked: "The house over there is full of patients who are dying of malaria and who come to treat them in the name of the old Taoist, just to test the dosage and formula of Artemisia annua... Although they are isolated It's very strict, but just in case. You don't understand medicine, and it's too dangerous to stay here. If you contract malaria, how can you be so experienced?"

It turned out to be an experimental patient...

Fang Jun is as good as he is, and this is not a place to stay for a long time. Just after walking a few steps, he heard someone crying and howling behind him: "Erlang! Erlang! You are my own grandfather! Please, let the little one go. , the little one doesn’t want money or anything, I’m really not sick..."

Fang Jun looked back in astonishment, and saw the door of a room. The young man he had sent for treatment earlier was clasping the door frame with both hands, crying loudly and refusing to let go. Behind him, a man dressed as a doctor was pulling him into the room... …
