Han Shizu

Chapter 1517 The most difficult period has passed
The military camp is located in front of Yinggong embankment.Yinggong Dike was named in memory of Chai Rong, because Chai Rong served as Jiedu envoy in Chanzhou in his early years. There are quite a few places to leave their names, and Chanzhou is only a passer-by, which is really not representative.

At least, there are some architectural inscriptions related to Chai Gong, Ying Gong, and heroes in Huaidong and Hexi.Of course, these are not important, what is important is the commemorative significance.

Unfortunately, it didn't take long for the name to be changed, and the Yinggong Dike burst in the summer flood, and even later, it became the first front for the imperial court and the military and civilians of Chanzhou to fight against the flood.

Before and after, the imperial court recruited more than [-] soldiers and civilians to Chanzhou to fight the disaster. This has already exceeded the local population. After all, although Chanzhou has a major geographical location, it does not occupy a large area. many.

The layout of the barracks is very strict, and the level of security is very high, which is completely comparable to that in wartime. It is not because of the arrival of the emperor, but because of the spread of the epidemic, the control has to be strengthened. The epidemic epidemic may be terrible, but it is even more terrible. Still chaos and disorder.

Fortunately, with the strong enforcement of the government and the army, the initial chaos was quickly quelled, and the more turbulent it was, the more important the role of authority and rules became.

The army mobilized locally in Chanzhou reached the largest number, more than [-]. In addition to the local forbidden army, it also included official troops from Gyeonggi, Henan, and Hebei.

The station was originally a village, and it was also responsible for protecting embankments and patrolling the river. After the river burst, it was completely destroyed.However, on the original basis, two rows of houses were erected again to accommodate the army and lay the foundation for the reconstruction of the village.

There were not many officers and soldiers in the camp, only a part of the guards who stayed behind were guarded by the Imperial Army, and the others either returned to their camps or were assigned to various Luka passes to control public security.

From the reduction in the number of officers and soldiers, it can be seen that the local situation in Chanzhou has been completely brought under control.The officers and soldiers are all in good condition, and they don't give people a heavy feeling. All the soldiers are neat and clean, just like a clean and tidy camp.

Of course, if it was two months ago, it might have been a different scene. At that time, the camp was full of mud and dirt, and most of the officers and soldiers were covered in dirt.

However, with the outbreak of the epidemic, the hygiene requirements were naturally raised to the highest standard.Up to now, even the most ordinary soldiers and civilians know that the epidemic is closely related to environmental sanitation.

"How many soldiers are there in this camp?" Emperor Liu asked.

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are a total of 630 people who are still in Chanzhou. There are only 4000 soldiers in the camp here. The rest of them are arranged to be on duty in the state city, docks, warehouses and various key roads. There are [-] people in the epidemic prevention camp!" Song Yanwo laid out a series of data like a few treasures.

Emperor Liu nodded and said, "An epidemic prevention camp?"

Song Yanwo immediately said: "Your Majesty, the Chanzhou government and the army cooperated with each other and specially set up several epidemic prevention camps to gather all the officers, soldiers, common people, and servants who were infected and symptoms of the disease in the territory, for centralized management and centralized treatment."

"It seems that the local isolation measures in Chanzhou are well done!" Emperor Liu commented, thought for a while, and asked, "How is the situation now?"

"There are less than 700 infected people who are still in the epidemic prevention camp. After the rest of the cured people have been confirmed, road guides, money and food have been distributed one after another for them to return home!" Song Yanwo said.

"Is it confirmed that the blockade can be lifted?" Emperor Liu frowned slightly.

At this time, Li Shaoyou took a step forward and explained: "Your Majesty, this epidemic is caused by the pollution of drinking water after the flood. The outbreak of the epidemic is also mostly concentrated in areas with serious disasters and complex populations such as Chanzhou and Daming Mansion.

Since the problem of drinking water was solved, combined with medical treatment and personnel control, it has basically been solved up to now.”

Emperor Liu pondered for a while, and suddenly pointed out: "What about the rural areas?"

Li Shaoyou hesitated for a while, and reported: "As far as the investigation is concerned, the villages have not been plagued by the epidemic. Since late July, the minister has ordered the affected prefectures and counties to organize manpower, mobilize craftsmen's tools, and go to all townships and villages. Villages, digging new wells to ensure that the people have enough clean drinking water.”

"The policy is good, but if the water quality is not clear, what's the use of digging more wells?" Emperor Liu pointed out.

Li Shaoyou said: "What Your Majesty said is true, but up to now, the water quality of the newly dug well is already clear and can be used for drinking."

"Don't just focus on these urban areas, and don't be negligent just because the conditions in the rural areas are good!" Emperor Liu instructed: "The government must set an example, and it must also strictly supervise the epidemic prevention! The people are not lacking in dullness, and they need the government Guide and correct in time!"

"Yes! After all, this involves the safety of the people themselves, and no one will be careless!" Li Shaoyou said.

Hearing this, the corners of Emperor Liu's mouth twitched slightly, which was not necessarily the case.Not to mention just the risk of contracting a disease, even if the disease really spreads, I am afraid that self-righteousness will inevitably occur. Maybe it is because it is troublesome, or it is because of a bad mood that they dare to ignore the requirements of the government.

There is always such a person in the world. What others think is good is always bad in his eyes. What others think should be done is always wrong in his eyes. Unless a knife is put on his neck, maybe will be reluctant to do things according to the rules
The resettlement of the epidemic prevention camp is relatively far from the military camp, belonging to the outer suburbs, and is completely isolated.After all, Emperor Liu did not propose to visit those who are still receiving observation and treatment, and even their specific conditions can only be judged through the reports of his officials. Although he made the decision to visit Chanzhou personally, in the specific process , or with reservations.

This also relieved Zhao Pu and the others. It was better to avoid the "high-risk" areas, and they were indeed worried that Emperor Liu would personally take risks because of his face and show considerations.

"Is the rebuilt Yinggong dike over there?" Emperor Liu pointed to the southeast direction of the barracks, where the shadows in the distance were more obvious.

"Exactly!" Song Yanwo replied. He had the most say in this regard. He was in charge of manpower organization, flood fighting and emergency rescue, including subsequent embankment reconstruction.

Under the gaze of Emperor Liu, Song Yanwo said: "The government mobilized one hundred thousand soldiers and civilians to block the breach and build embankments. Now, it has been completely repaired!"

After all this tossing and patrolling, it was already a bit late, and the climate in late autumn always gave people a sense of bleakness.However, Emperor Liu still had some energy, so he waved his hand and ordered: "Prepare your horse, go to the embankment and have a look!"

"Yes!" There was no other way, after a group of people walked around the barracks, they accompanied Emperor Liu to the Yinggong Embankment non-stop.

The river in late autumn is already very calm, the water level is low, and the flow is slow. After a while, it may be difficult for those large ships belonging to the transshipment department to sail with a full load.

Emperor Liu has seen a lot of Dahe, whether it is turbulent or calm, whether it is upstream or downstream, after getting used to it, it is difficult to have more emotions.

His eyes still fell on the newly built long embankment. Compared with many embankments that Emperor Liu had inspected, the Yinggong Embankment was not neat, and even a bit ugly.

The chaotic stones and rammed earth are uneven, like a hodgepodge, the gaps are also irregular, and the trees on the embankment are messy.

However, it just gives people a solid feeling, probably the actual effect obtained after reducing the beauty.In addition, Emperor Liu also felt the rush and urgency of the construction.

"It's not enough to just build the embankment, but also to maintain it. The trouble of the river cannot only rest on this long embankment. No matter how strong the embankment is, it can't resist the invasion of time and water!" Emperor Liu said.

Finally, Liu Yanyun, the magistrate of Chanzhou, got the chance to speak, and said: "Your Majesty, the deployment of embankment villages in the state has already begun. When winter comes, the dredging of the rivers, ditches, and reservoirs in the state will also start. According to the rules and regulations of the Ministry of Industry, carry out the work of protecting the river and embankment to ensure the peace of the people in Chanzhou!"

"I don't care what you say, but how you do it!" Emperor Liu said indifferently.

After walking for a while on the embankment, and even tested whether the trees planted were firm, Emperor Liu finally showed a gentle smile on his face, and said to Song Yanwo: "Tonight, I will sleep on the wall of the camp and prepare a banquet. , I want to reward you heroes who fought against the disaster, and we have not had a drink with each other for a long time, so it is time to raise our glasses and have a chat."

"Yes!"
