Chapter 231: A great nation creates a great country (1)
The rain has stopped!
The heavy rainstorms that ravaged Jiangxi Province and some areas of Zhili, southern Hunan Province, finally stopped for more than a month!
The flood brought destruction that could not be described in words, causing huge damage to the disaster area. Hundreds of villages were destroyed, and countless people and officers and soldiers died in the disaster.
This is a disaster, a complete disaster.
However, as long as the natural disaster passes, the harm is one-time. The courts of all dynasties have never been afraid of natural disasters, but they are afraid of things after natural disasters.
After a disaster, there will inevitably be another new disaster.
There will be human disasters after natural disasters!
The most terrible destruction brought by natural disasters is not to kill many people, but to destroy the basics of the people's survival: food!
People will starve to death without food, and before they starve to death, people will often try their best to survive.
This is the fundamental reason why the people rise up.
Fortunately, during this huge natural disaster, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty won the hearts of the people with their actions. The people highly respected the Ming Dynasty court and the emperor Zhu Yunwen. Therefore, even in the face of the dilemma of food shortage after the flood, the people chose to bear it silently instead of picking up farm tools and gathering together to attack the official warehouse.
The simple people even took the initiative to help the government build roads and drain water, so that the grain in the official warehouse can be successfully escorted to major military camps.
First, we offer the army to eat!
"If you tighten your belt, you can't starve a commoner to death!"
After defeating the flood and natural disasters, the Ming soldiers burst into a high sense of honor and mission. After cheering, they chose to carry the food on their shoulders to deliver it to every place where the people gather. They were not afraid of death, were they still afraid of hunger?
Since Zhu Di, the deputy commander-in-chief, all the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have been resolutely engaged in disaster relief after fighting the disaster.
This is a kind of military and civilian relationship that is enough to move the world.
"Since ancient times, there has never been a case where the imperial court controlled the soldiers to resist natural disasters for the people, and there has never been a case of providing disaster relief with military rations. Wuerlang, a servant of the Ming Dynasty, died to fight against the flood, and was hungry for the lives of the people. What an honor is it in the world that we are born as a person of the Ming Dynasty.
Long live the Ming Dynasty, long live the Ming soldiers, long live the emperor!"
The disaster situation in Jiangxi was filled with retribution. The heroic deeds in this disaster were told to the world. At this time, an article signed by the queen "Ma Enhui" made the world even more touched.
"From this palace and the lower palace, the palace will have a meal a day and a bowl of vegetarian porridge. All food will be given priority for Jiangxi. If you tighten your belt, you will not starve a person to death!"
If righteousness moves the world, there is nothing outside of it.
The Zhu family's country has been no longer touched for hundreds of years.
"Give food!"
Zhu Yunwen held a bowl of porridge and drank it with a delicious taste.
"All provinces organize civil servants and men's access to Jiangxi as quickly as possible. Before the people are full of food, if I, the emperor, eats all over the mouth, will be shameless."
The power of role models is endless!
Regardless of whether Zhu Yunwen's behavior was a show, whether it was sincere or false, when Zhu Yunwen picked up the porridge bowl and drank the clear soup and water, Jiangxi, whether it was a provincial governor or a grassroots clerk, spontaneously saved money and sent food to every porridge shed in various prefectures and counties!
The emperor is saving Jiangxi, Quan Daming is saving Jiangxi, and the people of Jiangxi are saving themselves!
With the relief led by the Ganzhou Federation of Commerce, nearly four million stones of grain were raised in just ten days and put into the public. Such a huge amount of grain is enough for the whole Jiangxi to eat for two months!
This is a life-saving food, a life-saving food that is enough to support the court to clear important roads in Jiangxi, so that the court's support can rush into Jiangxi!
And at this critical moment, what really worried Zhu Yunwen about happened:
plague!
Tens of thousands of corpses are either filled with rivers, or exposed to sunlight after heavy rain, and plagues are inevitable.
The so-called plague is a contagious virus.
With the medical system of the Ming Dynasty, there is no large-scale treatment ability for any epidemic. Moreover, this epidemic is not the infamous smallpox flu that Zhu Yunwen remembers, but a new and unknown infection. The disease state is like malaria, but it is even more serious than malaria.
"Now there are about dozens of local infected people in Nanchang."
Zhu Yunwen's sage arrived in Nanchang after the rain stopped, which was also at the forefront of this disaster, and inspired the fighting spirit of the people of Jiangxi to survive more closely.
“Appoint quarantine treatment right away.”
Zhu Yunwen spoke subconsciously, but found that everyone's expressions were a little entangled.
"What are you doing while standing there? Go and do it."
Zhu Di sighed and stood up and bowed: "This epidemic is not the same as before. Good doctors have no cure, and they are even infected. Now they want to find a treatment plan, but they must be dated. I am afraid that the infection will spread by then and it will be out of control, so I ask Your Majesty to allow me to shoot and kill the epidemic people."
Zhu Yunwen's face twitched, and he slapped the imperial desk and stood up, pointing at Zhu Di, his body trembling slightly.
"What did you say?"
The people are suffering from the epidemic. As one of the leaders of this country, Zhu Di actually proposed shooting and killing the epidemic people?
"Is it a sin to kill one person to live a hundred people?"
Yan Zhen sighed and stood up: "Your Majesty, the difficulty of treatment is too great. Isolation from him will let these people die by themselves, and wail in the torture of illness and hunger. If you stop dealing with it, you can burn it with fire and be sure to keep it safe."
"All sins are brought to the last general."
Tang Bi, the commander of Henan, walked out of the train and said calmly: "I will do it until I finish it. After the work is over, I will commit suicide and apologize."
The emperor cannot take the blame. Now that the military and civilians are united, it is the time when the imperial court has the highest prestige. Anyone who wants to appease the people will have to fill it with his life.
"Discover one case and one case can fundamentally intercept the possibility of infection."
Yan Zhenzhi continued to persuade: "Now all prefectures in Jiangxi are restoring people's livelihood and investigating the streets. In order to prevent the spread of corpse plague, the corpse has been burned. At this moment, the benevolence of women is not allowed. As long as these people who have been found have been controlled, there will be no phenomenon of one or ten or ten, and more people can live. Otherwise, once the spread of one city plague and ten city plague, the deaths will be even worse than the flood."
Can kill one person live a hundred people? Are kind or sinful?
Zhu Yunwen understands this truth, but he can't speak out because in his memory, every time the epidemic occurs, the country is doing all its protection and treatment of the people, and now the only thing he can do is to clean up these epidemic people?
"In those years when I was fighting in the north, if the grassland people were infected with the plague, they would lie naked on the grassland, cut their torso with their blades to attract vultures to eat. Sky Burial is the highest affirmation for a warrior."
Zhu Di said silently: "Similarly, when the athletes under my command are infected, they will bravely commit suicide. They would rather die than infect the pit and harm their brothers and sisters."
"Your Majesty, you should not hesitate. Let the Mo Zong do it."
Tang Bi continued to persuade that the general who had been on the front line of flood fighting and had to fight the flood for several days was also anxious at this time. His reputation would be remembered forever with this flood fighting battle, but now he has to stand up and fight the infamy.
There is always someone who should do something for this country.
Zhu Yunwen closed his eyes and he had already made a decision.
As Zhu Di said, this is not the time when he was merciful. Tang Bi would recite all his infatuations and "hide" him as the emperor. Afterwards, Zhu Yunwen would "sense" and then give Tang Bi his death in anger.
This matter will be buried forever.
Not only will the people of Jiangxi be safe, but the reputation of Zhu Yunwen and the benevolent king will not be damaged.
"go..."
Just as Zhu Yunwen was about to agree, outside the lobby, Deng Su, the right governor of Jiangxi, walked in.
"Your Majesty, those epidemic people have committed suicide!"
When these people find that they are infected with plague but cannot be cured, or even infect others, these people make the most wrong choice.
