Because the plague infected people will cause the lymph nodes to swell, so pimple plague and big head plague are the names of plague in ancient China.

According to historical records, when the epidemic occurred, "people's necks were swollen, and they died within one or two days.

The reason why Li Wangyou was so panicked after learning about the plague in Yanling County was because he knew the terrible contagiousness of the plague.

The several plagues recorded in Chinese history have brought huge disasters.

In the 14th year of Chongzhen and the 16th year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, plague broke out in the capital twice. Many scholars in later generations believed that because of the epidemic, the number of soldiers in the capital dropped by 20, which also paved the way for the downfall of Ming Dynasty.

In China, Chinese medicine was much more advanced than Western medicine at that time, so doctors also summed up many raw and cooked prescriptions for the treatment of plague, which achieved certain results.

Therefore, the plague has not yet caused a catastrophe in China.

The spread of the plague in Europe was even more frightening. The Middle Ages was covered by the Black Death, which was actually the plague.

Due to the lack of scientific protective measures and treatment methods, the Black Death killed 500 million people in Europe, accounting for about one-third of the European population at that time.

Many European villages, towns and even countries were "destroyed" as a result, which can be described as quite miserable.

Su Changqing didn't understand what kind of infectious disease Liu Shenwei was referring to as the "Big Head Plague", but seeing Li Wangyou's face instantly lost its color from being frightened, he knew that the disease must be quite serious.

"Wangyou, what kind of disease is this big head plague?"

Li Wangyou squeezed out two words between his teeth: "Plague!"

When Su Changqing heard that it was the plague, he was also so frightened that his face paled, and he covered his mouth with his hands in disbelief, with a look of horror on his face.

She naturally knew how terrible this disease was.

Even if the plague has reached later generations, with antibiotic treatment, the mortality rate has reached 5.00% to [-]%.

"Wangyou, what should we do now?"

"Don't worry. Fortunately, I have already ordered people to block Yanling County. As long as the virus does not spread, everything can still be saved."

At this moment, Li Wangyou could only become hard-hearted.

If the plague in Yanling County cannot be controlled, even if tens of thousands of people in the city are sacrificed, the virus will not spread in Xuzhou.

Although he is not a doctor, he has a general understanding that the spread of the plague is mainly through the bites of mosquitoes and fleas, respiratory droplets, damaged skin of healthy people, and contact with pus and blood of patients.

Respiratory droplets can be effectively prevented by relying on masks.

The most important thing now is to kill fleas, mosquitoes and rats in Yanling County.

Li Wangyou forced himself to calm down, walked back and forth for a few steps, and ordered the governor of Xuzhou and Captain Zhechong to be called over.

"I'm telling you a piece of bad news, keep it secret for the time being, and don't spread it around, so as not to cause panic." Li Wangyou's expression was extremely serious.

Governor Xuzhou and Captain Zhechong looked at each other, feeling a bad premonition welling up in their hearts.

"Just now, Liu Fengyu has gone to the city to check. The epidemic in Yanling County is big head plague!"

Li Wangyou's words made Governor Xuzhou's legs go limp for no reason, and he slumped to the ground.

"Remember, don't spread the word beforehand!" Li Wangyou turned his head to look at Captain Zhechong again: "Pass down the order and strictly guard against it. Not even a single fly is allowed to be released from Yanling County. If the epidemic leaks out, I will first take it out of Yanling County." Your head was chopped off to worship the heavens!"

"No! How dare you refuse to die!"

Li Wangyou turned his head to look at the governor of Xuzhou: "Immediately transport all the lime to Yanling County, and order the city to be splashed with lime water three times a day to kill the virus. In addition, an order was sent to the Ming Mansion of Yanling County to send all the people with fever and cough The patients are gathered in one workshop, except for the medical workers, other people are prohibited from entering or leaving."

In today's Tang Dynasty, there is no specific medicine for the plague, and the only important one may be penicillin.

But Li Wangyou doesn't know how much penicillin is available now.

When the beautiful boss came to Xuzhou, there was no epidemic in Xuzhou. Sun Simiao, Zhang Baozang and others naturally stayed in Chang'an City and did not come to Xuzhou.

Therefore, it is most important to take strict disinfection and isolation measures.

"No, I will obey your orders. Here, I will make arrangements." Governor Xuzhou tried his best to get up from the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands, and replied tremblingly.

"By the way, there is another very important point. If there are sick people who die due to the epidemic in the city, they are not allowed to perform rituals, and funerals are not allowed. Immediately order someone to sprinkle lime on the corpses, transport them out of the city, cremate them, and bury them deep!"

"This...Master Hou, I'm afraid it's not right?" The governor of Xuzhou was sweating even more.

Cremation has not been popular in China since ancient times, except for those who get eminent monks and are willing to give up their skins, how can ordinary people have the custom of cremation?

According to the Chinese tradition, it is impossible to accept that people are burned.

Even for the heinous criminals, after being beheaded or cut in half, the government will allow their family members to put their bodies back together to ensure their integrity as much as possible.

And giving the criminal to leave a whole body is even more grateful to the death row prisoner.

In such a situation, Li Wangyou demanded that all those who died of illness be cremated and buried deeply. The governor of Xuzhou could no longer imagine what troubles would arise then.

Li Wangyou doesn't care about the customs or not, whenever and wherever he cares about them.

If the dead who died of the plague were not cremated as soon as possible, they would be a huge source of infection, and it would kill many people.

"Okay, this matter must be done according to it, don't say any more words. I still say the same thing, dare to disobey, kill without mercy!"

"Promise, I will obey." The governor of Xuzhou is now determined to die, and these things are becoming more and more difficult to handle.

"In addition, Xuzhou's medical workers, doctors, and medicines from various pharmacies are all conscripted to Yanling County, and they are asked to wear masks and go to the city to treat patients." Li Wangyou continued to order.

The governor of Xuzhou was a little hesitant: "I'm afraid that those medical workers won't go to Yanling County. Lord Hou, that's a big head plague."

Xu Zhou's governor's words were of course not nonsense. In the face of the plague, doctors in this era are no different from ordinary people. They are all "streaking" in the face of the virus.

Even because they have more contact with patients, they have a higher chance of getting sick.

These ordinary medical workers and doctors also have no good treatment methods for the plague, so the first thing many medical workers think of after hearing about the plague is how to escape.

This is of course no wonder to them.

But Li Wangyou couldn't care so much at this time.

"This Marquis sent you a hundred imperial guards, even if they are arrested, they must be brought to Yanling County!" Li Wangyou stared into the eyes of the governor of Xuzhou and roared in a low voice.

"Promise, I, I will obey your orders." Under the oppression of Li Wangyou's aura, the governor of Xuzhou didn't dare to say anything more.

844 Bloodshed

The tens of thousands of people in the city always need someone to take care of them, and with masks, Li Wangyou believes that these medical workers will not be so easily infected with the plague.

Although it is immoral to force others to enter the epidemic area, and it is even conceivable that he will bear a lot of infamy because of this, but Li Wangyou can't care less about it.

Facing the plague, neither Li Wangyou nor the dudes dared to enter Yanling County rashly, but set up camp outside the city and stayed there.
