Doctor Hafken, who is in charge of the Raksha State Railway Hospital, can be said to have a strong family background. His uncle once presided over the plague prevention and control work in Zhaini Mumbai and developed a vaccine that can prevent the plague. This young doctor from the Raksha State has won Uncle Nai's true biography.Better than the Japanese, Hafken admitted that the plague was prevalent in Harbin, but he did not agree with the theory of Wu Liande's pneumonic plague. In his opinion, the only way to control the epidemic was to exterminate the rats.Doctors from other countries also expressed their views one after another, but none of them recognized pneumonic plague. Obviously, these people looked at people with colored glasses and did not believe that the people of the Later Jin Kingdom could discover new types of plague.

"You'd better believe him, because his theories can save the lives of many of you." A clear voice suddenly sounded from the door of the conference room, a young man in a second-rank official uniform led several people in suits A middle-aged man walked in.

"Who are you?" Doctor Wa raised his head and said, he totally looked down on Hualan people, even if they were high-ranking officials.

"Zhao Shouhong." These three words were like three powerful hammers, hitting everyone's hearts hard.In today's medical field, if someone doesn't know Zhao Shouhong's name, he must be a dead house who hasn't been out for a long time. Of course, there was no such term in that era.

After curing Helen Keller and Kaiser Wilhelm II who were considered impossible to cure, Zhao Shouhong's reputation has spread all over the world.Huisheng Pill and Panacea Pill swept the world's medical circles, and were almost regarded as panacea, which also made him famous, and now he is a myth in the medical world.

In fact, when they came into contact with the epidemic, these foreign doctors secretly tried Huishengdan and Panacea, but the sulfonamide named Huishengdan and the penicillin named Wanlingdan were ineffective against pneumonic plague, so These doctors are helpless.

Looking at the already quiet conference room, Zhao Shouhong went directly to Wu Lien-teh and said, "Dr. Wu Lien-teh, I totally agree with your theory, please continue."

"This... I just discovered this virus, and even the transmission method is my guess, and I haven't conducted in-depth research yet." Wu Liande said with a blushing face.His words caused a burst of laughter in the venue, but some foreign doctors were still watching Hualan's jokes.

"In that case, let me introduce you." Zhao Shouhong stood up abruptly and said, "This pneumonic plague is a natural foci disease that can be transmitted through the air. The incubation period is generally three to five days, and the primary The duration of pneumonic plague ranges from several hours to three days. The onset of this disease is rapid, with high fever accompanied by chills, chills, and systemic toxin symptoms. Swollen lymph nodes are prone to vomiting, diarrhea, hepatosplenomegaly, and bleeding. Pneumonic plague is mostly caused by Caused by hematogenous dissemination of bubonic plague, a few of which are primary inhalational pneumonic plague. Sputum is pus and blood, chest pain, hemoptysis, dyspnea, cyanosis. There are few lung signs, and there may be a small amount of moist rales and pleural friction rub. Signs and condition Inconsistent severity is the characteristic of this disease, if the rescue is not timely, there may be disturbance of consciousness, and most of them die from shock and respiratory failure." Zhao Shouhong spoke according to the answer given by the previous biochemical doctor, and everyone was stunned.Unexpectedly, Zhao Shouhong already had such a deep understanding of this disease that they did not know.

Zhao Shouhong glanced around for a week, and then said: "As the full command of the eradication of the epidemic, I ordered the epidemic area to start a 24-hour martial law. All patients must be strictly isolated, and the isolation area is separated by a lime belt. The wards are fully eradicated. Rats and fleas Every day, it must be disinfected three times in the morning, afternoon and evening, and the patient's excrement must be thoroughly disinfected. All medical staff must wear masks. The corpses of the dead are cremated on the spot and are not allowed to move out of the epidemic area. All suspected cases must be isolated for a week for observation. My medical team will take care of the next thing."

"I object. In the area where our Raksha people are stationed, there is no need for doctors from the Houjin Kingdom to dictate. If you are willing to visit the hospital, I will be very welcome, but I refuse to accept your request." Hafken first stood up and shouted road.

"I won't accept it either. I firmly believe that the teacher's theory is correct. I don't believe in your so-called pneumonic plague. The Japanese hospital will solve the epidemic in its own way without your help." The Japanese doctor also stood up.

"Since this is the case, I won't take too much care, but I will send troops to isolate the area where you are, so that you will not spread the plague again. As for the area controlled by our post-Jin Kingdom, you don't need the help of foreign doctors. If you don't agree with me Please leave on your own for prevention and control methods. But I will send troops to monitor, and if someone keeps trying to dissuade you from taking the plague virus out of your hospital, I authorize the soldiers to kill it directly." guest posture.

Chapter 3 and Six We Do It Ourselves

Those foreign doctors have never seen such a defiant post-Jin countryman, even if he is a world medical miracle.Soon all the foreign doctors will leave, and they will join the hospitals on both sides of Japan to continue the treatment of the epidemic.

"You can't do this. We lack enough manpower. We don't have enough people who understand Western medicine. Even if we send people to control the epidemic area, we will die." Wu Lien-teh was really anxious. Originally, he wanted to gather all the forces to work together. To prevent and control the plague, but now all the foreign doctors have left, and the few remaining Hualan doctors are simply a drop in the bucket.

"Dr. Wu Lien-teh, I appreciate your talent very much, but the dignity of the Hualan nation cannot be desecrated. I will not bow my head to those foreigners easily." Zhao Shouhong's tone was firm, without allowing anyone to question him at all.

"But we are short of manpower," Wu Lien-teh said.

"I brought 1000 doctors and an army of more than [-] people. They are all well-trained in medical treatment and have been vaccinated. They can handle this kind of situation." Zhao Shouhong showed a strange look on his face. smile.

"There are not enough people like that." Wu Liande just said something, and his face suddenly showed a look of shock: "What did you say? You mean, there is a vaccine for this pneumonic plague?"

"Yes, I have a vaccine against pneumonic plague in my hand. In addition, I have a good news to tell Dr. Wu. Not only do I have the vaccine, but I also have a specific drug for the treatment of pneumonic plague. As long as I take this drug, I can recover quickly .” Zhao Shouhong’s words were unquestionable, but it was hard for the doctors present at the Houjin Kingdom to believe.

"It's impossible." Lien-teh Wu was completely shocked.

"For the Hualan people, nothing is impossible." Zhao Shouhong patted Wu Lien-teh on the shoulder and said, "I will let you see that the miracles created by the Hualan nation will shock the whole world, and This plague is just a small test of the knife."

The isolation method Zhao Shouhong mentioned was given by biochemical doctors.Under today's hygienic conditions, this is the most simple and reliable medical solution, which Wu Lien-teh also very much agrees with.Soon, such isolated areas were established within Fujiadian, where the people of the Houjin Kingdom lived, and the baggage regiment carried a large amount of hypochlorous acid for disinfection, which was enough to support the disinfection work in the isolated areas.

Local officials at all levels also cooperated closely and mobilized a large amount of lime for isolation. In addition, biochemical doctors formed many medical teams and began to use streptomycin tablets and injections under the pseudonym Huanyangdan to treat plague patients. Treatment.

Zhao Shouhong was not idle either. He led some biochemical doctors and guard battalions outside the quarantine area to inoculate the local people who had not yet been infected with the plague vaccine.Because Zhao Shouhong was fully prepared this time, they not only carried a large number of vaccines, medicines and disinfectants, but also secretly replenished at night by the shuttle.With the support of a large number of medicines, the epidemic in Fujiadian, the area inhabited by Houjin people, was quickly brought under effective control.

The epidemic situation in Fujiadian, an area inhabited by Hou Jin people, began to ease, and some patients with relatively mild conditions even began to be discharged from the hospital one after another.Seeing how effective Zhao Shouhong's method was, the Raksha people and the Wa people couldn't sit still.Because of the relationship between the doctor and teacher, the Japanese people always refused to admit pneumonic plague, so they were naturally embarrassed to ask the people of Houjin.

This is not the case for the people of the Raksha country. The overseas Chinese of the Wa country are a minority in Mingbei, and they can ignore them, but the Raksha country has a large number of overseas Chinese.In particular, Harbin, where the disaster was the worst, is dominated by the Raksha people. There are even more Raksha people in the city than the Hou Jin people.

Hufken soon went to Wu Lien-teh's office in person, hoping to invite Dr. Hou Jin Guo to take a look.Zhao Shouhong has no good looks towards these Raksha people, and he will not go there.No one was willing to go even with his biochemical doctor, so Wu Lien-teh had to go there in the end.

In fact, Hufken never believed in the existence of pneumonic plague. He still firmly believed that exterminating rats was the best way to cut off the infection.The reason why he invited people from the Houjin Kingdom was that he found that the people from the Houjin Kingdom seemed to have a special medicine against the plague, and he planned to get some tests to find out the formula.When Wu Lien-teh came to Houjin Guoren Hospital, he found that the situation here was still very bad.Under the guidance of Hafken's theory, the Raksha State Railway Hospital had no isolation measures.

Without the slightest mental preparation and without any protection, Wu Lien-teh followed Hufken into the plague ward unknowingly.At this time, eight plague patients were lying in the ward, and the door was wide open for medical staff to come in and out at will, and no one was even wearing a mask.Seeing Wu Liande's frightened look, Hufken felt very ridiculous. In his eyes, this post-Jin countryman was as cowardly as a mouse.

In order not to be underestimated by the Raksha people, Wu Lien-teh did not ask to wear a mask in the end.When he examined the patients, he kept his head as high as possible to avoid touching their breath.For the first time since entering the epidemic area, Wu Lien-teh felt that death was so close to him.

In "Autobiography", Wu Lien-teh described the scene at that time: "I was really flustered in this ward for more than ten minutes; I took a breath after I finished my work. Dr. Ha thought it was funny when he saw this situation; he He thinks that they have injected the vaccination made by his uncle and it is safe enough that no other preventive tools are needed.” In fact, Lien-teh Wu needn’t be so nervous. Before he knew it, the biochemical doctor had injected him with Nakagawa’s production pneumonic plague vaccine.These vaccines are truly symptomatic and more effective than the vaccines of the Raksha people.

Faced with Hufken's optimism, Wu Lien-teh was helpless.A few days of experience made him understand that the doctors of the Houjin people can only be responsible for the epidemic prevention in Fujiadian, and it is impossible for the Raksha people to get involved in the residential area. If the epidemic here cannot be controlled, the source of infection will be difficult to cut off .

One day later, Wu Lien-teh unexpectedly welcomed a volunteer Gallic doctor Mesni.Maisney had been in China for many years and was a military surgeon. He was a professor at Tianfeng Beiyu Medical College at the time, and he and Wu Lien-teh were old acquaintances.Wu Lien-teh was very happy with Maisney's arrival. He couldn't wait to tell Maisney about the epidemic in Harbin and ask for his opinion.But when he finished introducing the epidemic and his own conclusions about pneumonic plague, he found that his old friend's mood was not quite right.

"Dear Dr. Wu, I don't agree with your theory. I have participated in the prevention and control of plague in Zhaini and Hong Kong, and I know this disease very well. I think that the plague is spread by rats, and rat control is the key The crux of the problem is that patient isolation is not necessary at all." Meinis said very bluntly, almost accusing Wu Lien-teh of negligence.

Chapter 3 Proud Maisney

"However, according to our quarantine implementation, at least the plague in Fujiadian has been brought under control, and many people have started to be discharged from the hospital, which shows that our judgment is correct." Wu Liande explained.

"Oh, you were just lucky. With the abilities of the Jin people, it is impossible to treat the plague, let alone cure it. They are just stronger and rely on their own immunity to survive." Unexpectedly, Wu Liande just said After two sentences, Mesney flew into a rage.In Mesney's view, it was an insult to him that a native of the Jin Dynasty who was ten years younger than him talked about "pneumonic plague" in front of him.

In fact, Maisney has long been a nest of fire.Before going to Harbin, he first went to Fengtian to visit Zhao Erxun, the governor of the three provinces in Mingbei.Maisney thought that Zhao Shouhong was just a layman, and his ability was not enough to hold such a position.He strongly urged Zhao Erxun to appoint him as the chief medical officer of epidemic prevention in the three provinces of Mingbei to replace Zhao Shouhong. In fact, in his opinion, the people of the post-Jin country are unable to take on important responsibilities, and it is even more impossible for him to be inferior to the people of the post-Jin country. Down.

It's a pity that Zhao Erxun trusted his nephew and grandson very much, and politely rejected Meisney's request. He just asked Meisni to go to Harbin to see the situation.Under such circumstances, Mesney could not maintain the objective attitude that a doctor should have, and it was normal for him to refuse to cooperate with Zhao Shouhong's epidemic prevention measures. In fact, he vented his anger on Wu Lien-teh more on Zhao Shouhong.

"There is no fluke in medicine. This is a matter of life and death. You can't rely on your own imagination to make a decision." Zhao Shouhong walked in. He knew that there was a doctor from Gaul, so he naturally wanted to come and have a look. He didn't want to just arrive at the door I heard the two arguing.

"Who are you?" Maisney looked up and down at Zhao Shouhong, who was dressed in an official uniform.

"My servant, Zhao Shouhong, is now the imperial envoy in charge of epidemic prevention in the three provinces of Mingbei." Zhao Shouhong didn't say this, but it just hit Maisney's pain.He snorted coldly and said, "I don't argue with a layman, I only act according to medical theory."

"That's just an outdated medical theory. Medicine is constantly advancing. Don't always use the old experience to deal with new things, or you will be unlucky." Zhao Shouhong still spoke calmly.

"You mean I don't understand? Do you know who you are talking to? I am a doctor who graduated from the Paris Medical College in Gaul. I have treated the plague in many places." Mesney has entered a state of rage.

"We have already told you that this is pneumonic plague, not the bubonic plague you usually treat. If you still follow the old experience, I doubt the teaching quality of the Paris Medical School." Zhao Shouhong refused to budge, and spoke with The Gauls confronted each other.Now that he has a space hospital and a large number of biochemical doctors, plus the support of Zhongchuan Pharmaceutical Factory, at least in terms of medicine, Zhao Shouhong will not lie to anyone.

"You are an insult to an excellent doctor. In this case, I will protest to your court. I demand that you be replaced as an imperial envoy." Mesney roared.

"Then just try it out. If you succeed, you will be the imperial envoy and the chief medical officer of the three provinces of Mingbei." Zhao Shouhong didn't back down at all, and as a result, Maisney left in anger. .

"My lord, why do you have to be serious with him? These foreign doctors are volunteers, and he is also kind." Wu Liande said.

"It's even more unforgivable if we do bad things with good intentions. I can't let anyone mess up our epidemic prevention work. You must always remember that once we make mistakes in our work, the people who are killed or injured are the people of our Houjin Empire, and they have nothing to do with them. "Zhao Shouhong turned around and left after saying these words, only Wu Liande was left there shaking his head and sighing.

Wu Lien-teh did not agree with Mesney's words. On the contrary, he admired what Zhao Shouhong had done in Fujiadian these days. Now he has completely trusted the strength of Zhao Shouhong and his medical team.In Wu Lien-teh's view, as long as Zhao Shouhong continues to insist on such measures, the epidemic will soon be eradicated, but Wu Lien-teh knows the court's attitude towards foreigners.

If Maisney contacted the Gaul embassy to put pressure on the court, the court would most likely replace Zhao Shouhong.Once Zhao Shouhong leaves, the epidemic prevention work will be taken over by foreign doctors who don't know how to pretend to understand, and many people in Mingbei will die.

Wu Lien-teh's worry was not impossible. After returning to his residence, Maisney immediately sent a telegram to the Gallic embassy and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Shi Zhaoji, who was in charge of the matter, requesting that Zhao Shouhong be replaced.

After the Gaul embassy received Mesny's guarantee, they immediately found Shi Zhaoji.The Gaul envoy didn't ask what was going on at all. He only knew that doctors in his country were protesting, and he wanted to support his own people to scare the officials of the Later Jin court.

Shi Zhaoji once studied in the White Eagle Country. He was the first post-Jin country student at Cornell University. He has also served as ministers of several countries. He naturally has a deep understanding of foreigners.Although he did not agree with the protest of the Minister of Gaul, he was not good at arguing until he knew the situation clearly. In the end, he could only talk in circles and persuade the Minister of Gaul to leave first.

Later, in order to understand the situation, Shi Zhaoji immediately sent a report to Wu Lien-teh, asking about the situation in Harbin and the conflict between Zhao Shouhong and Maisney.After knowing that Zhao Shouhong's treatment was very effective, he was willing to vouch for it, but he couldn't decide this kind of matter with his position, so he had no choice but to take a telegram to find the regent Zaifeng.

"Lord Regent, this is the ins and outs of this matter. Now Mr. Zhao's epidemic prevention work in Mingbei has achieved initial results, and the epidemic in Fujiadian, the most severely affected area in the country, has been brought under control. But the doctors of Gaul think it is just Fortunately, I strongly demand that he be replaced." Although Shi Zhaoji expressed his meaning truthfully, his words were partial to Zhao Shouhong.

"As for this matter, I don't know how the Lord Regent will make a decision?" Shi Zhaoji could only leave the decision to Zaifeng.He thought that the regent would definitely hand over the position of chief medical officer of epidemic prevention to the other party because of pressure from the Gauls.For this reason, he thought of many reasons and planned to let Zhao Shouhong stay, at least to be responsible for the actual local epidemic prevention work.

To Shi Zhaoji's surprise, Zaifeng did not act according to his ideas.This made the regent, who is often weak to foreigners, surprisingly tough: "Absolutely not, we have to handle the affairs of the later Jin court by ourselves. Zhao Shouhong's position must not be moved, even if the doctor of Gaul is withdrawn." No hesitation."
