Chapter 408: The Unaffordable Weight Of 500,000 Northern Expedition Troops And 200,000 Northern Yuan
"Fortunately, it is February now, and the spring cold has not gone away. Smallpox likes heat but not cold. Relatively speaking, the infection intensity of smallpox is slightly weaker than in the hot summer.
"But even so, we must immediately send someone who knows medical skills and knows how to isolate and prevent epidemics, and we must have enough people to go over and stabilize the 50 Northern Expedition troops and the 200,000 Northern Yuan soldiers infected with the smallpox plague. The morale of the military and the people to surrender the prisoners!!!"
"At the same time, before the third large-scale smallpox outbreak and infection cycle, we should immediately promote the implementation of cowpox vaccination to prevent smallpox, and provide isolation and supportive treatment for those who have been infected with smallpox!!!"
"Only by controlling the smallpox outbreak on their side, can we hope to truly suppress this smallpox plague, which involves hundreds of thousands of Ming Dynasty's Northern Expedition soldiers and even millions of Ming Dynasty people!!!"
As Yan Changqing spoke, he couldn't help but frown.
Now he really feels what it means to be overwhelmed!!!
He must stay here to keep an eye on the matters related to the cowpox vaccination of the 100,000 Northern Expedition troops in Yingtian Mansion, as well as all the people of Yingtian Mansion, as well as Zhu Yuanzhang and all the civil and military officials!
Even if he wanted to go to the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and 200,000 Northern Yuan prisoners to solve matters related to the smallpox plague, Zhu Yuanzhang and all the civil and military officials would not let him go.
And if he didn't go to the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and 200,000 Northern Yuan prisoners, he would personally be responsible for solving matters related to the smallpox plague.
Others, such as the Northern Expedition generals such as Xu Da, Duke of Wei, Feng Sheng, Duke of Song, Fu Youde, Duke of Ying, and Hou Lanyu of Yongchang, whose status was important enough and could stabilize the morale of the military and the people, did not understand medical skills, let alone how to isolate and prevent epidemics. Treat smallpox.
For example, imperial doctors such as Ling Dai Sigong, who knew medical skills and knew how to isolate, prevent and treat smallpox, did not have enough status.
Even after that, with their status, it is basically impossible to completely mobilize Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals and make all the Northern Expedition generals 100% convinced and obey them.
After all, the highest official position is only the fifth-grade imperial physician order, and the status lies there.
Even if the imperial physician's order was supported by Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial edict, he would never dare to instruct Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals wantonly!!!
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial blessings were only temporary, but the titles of Cao Guogong and others were passed down from generation to generation.
If in the process of preventing and controlling the smallpox plague, Japan accidentally offended Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals.
Then after this matter is over, if Cao Guogong and other noble nobles start trouble, even his mere imperial doctor's order will not be able to stop them.
Even if Cao Guogong and other nobles don't look like petty and vengeful people, they are not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid of the worst.
Therefore, even if Zhu Yuanzhang gave Imperial Physician Ling special privileges, he could allow Imperial Physician Ling to act expediently and mobilize and command Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals at will.
But when it comes to mobilizing and commanding Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals, the Imperial Medical Order will most likely communicate with Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals in the form of requests and suggestions, rather than directing Cao Guogong and other Northern Expedition generals in the form of direct orders. General.
Similarly, no one knows that Cao Guogong and others know that the imperial edict requires them to fully cooperate with the imperial physician's order.
But when it comes to the specific implementation process, Cao Guogong and others will most likely habitually place the imperial physician's order in a subordinate position.
First consider and weigh the impact of the requests and suggestions made by the imperial doctor's order, and then implement the requests and suggestions made by the imperial doctor's order.
Rather than immediately and without hesitation, simply and swiftly implement all the requests and suggestions put forward by the imperial physician's order!!!
In this process, one request or suggestion is considered and weighed before execution, which will inevitably cause unnecessary waste of time.
But now if we want to suppress the smallpox plague, the most critical, most lacking, and most urgent thing to race against is time!!!
Not to mention stabilizing the morale of the army and the people of the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and the 200,000 Northern Yuan prisoners!!!
This issue was not only thought of by Yan Changqing, but also by Zhu Yuanzhang and other civil and military officials, as well as the Northern Expedition generals such as Wei Duke Xu Da, Song Duke Feng Sheng, Ying Duke Fu Youde, and Yongchang Hou Lanyu.
Xu Da, who had been kneeling, immediately said without hesitation:
"Your Majesty, Mr. Qi Bo, please go back with the Imperial Physician to control the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and 200,000 Northern Yuan prisoners of war against the smallpox plague!!~"!"
"I guarantee with my head that I will not question anything regarding vaccination against cowpox or isolation and treatment of smallpox plague as ordered by the imperial doctor, and will implement it on the spot!!!"
Xu Da knew very well that he and others put Zhu Yuanzhang at risk of contracting the smallpox plague this time, and the consequences would most likely be death!!!
But if the problem of the smallpox plague infected by the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and the 200,000 prisoners surrendered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty could be dealt with.
Then after making amends, Zhu Yuanzhang might be able to spare their lives, or at least his family's lives.
So Xu Da did not hesitate to ask to be allowed back to control and suppress the smallpox plague of 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and 200,000 Northern Yuan prisoners!!!
Since he doesn't know medical skills, doesn't know how to isolate and prevent epidemics and treat smallpox, and his status as an imperial physician is not high enough, then he can just go back with Da Bed.
All suggestions and requests made by the imperial doctor's orders were implemented as if they were 100% mindless, so that should be fine.
"Your Majesty, please go back with the Duke of Wei and the imperial physician to control the smallpox plague of the 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and the 200,000 prisoners surrendered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty!!!"
"I guarantee with my head that I will not question a single thing about any matters concerning vaccination against cowpox and isolation and treatment of smallpox plague that are raised by the imperial doctor's order, and they will be implemented on the spot!!!"
The generals of the Northern Expedition, including Duke Feng Sheng of the Song Dynasty, Fu Youde, the Duke of Ying, and Lan Yu, the Marquis of Yongchang, who were also kneeling on the side, also spoke in unison at this moment.
At this point, this is the only way they can think of to make up for their mistakes and save their lives or the lives of their family members.
Facing this request from the Northern Expedition generals such as Duke Xu Da of Wei, Feng Sheng of Song, Fu Youde of Ying, Hou Lanyu of Yongchang, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flickered, and he was obviously considering their suggestions.
However, before Zhu Yuanzhang could decide whether to agree or not, Yan Changqing shook his head and said:
"."It's useless."
Zhu Yuanzhang, Duke Xu Da of Wei, Duke Feng Sheng of Song, Duke Ying Fu Youde, Hou Lanyu of Yongchang and other Northern Expedition generals, as well as other civil and military officials present, all focused their attention on Yan Changqing.
Yan Changqing's eyes fell on the imperial physician Ling Dai Sigong and the other imperial physicians, and he said calmly:
"Even if Wei Guogong, you will never question it, and implement any arrangements made by the imperial doctor on the spot regarding vaccination of cowpox and isolation and treatment of smallpox plague.
"However, the imperial doctors themselves cannot bear the weight of the lives of 500,000 Northern Expedition troops and 200,000 Northern Yuan surrendered prisoners!!!"
Seeing the look on the imperial doctor's face, Dai Sigong, who was about to open his mouth to defend himself, Yan Changqing said with cold eyes: (It's good to have the money)
"In order to curb the large-scale spread of smallpox plague, we need to order the killing of all Ming soldiers and Beiyuan prisoners who have been infected with smallpox plague!!!"
"Even if Wei Guogong and others dare to execute this order, as the imperial physician responsible for isolating and suppressing the smallpox plague, "Do you really dare to issue this order?!!"
"If it only involves tens of thousands of Northern Expedition soldiers and Beiyuan prisoners of war, you might dare to issue this order."
"But if it involves hundreds of thousands of Northern Expedition soldiers and Beiyuan prisoners of war, do you dare to issue this order?!!"
"If more Northern Expedition soldiers and Beiyuan surrendered prisoners are involved, do you really dare to issue this order?!!"
As the imperial physician, Dai Sigong's face turned blue and white. Finally, he lowered his head and said with a face of shame:
"I can't do it!!!"
