The World of Yellow Sky

He no longer pinned his hopes on the Han court and other doctors to control the plague, but devoted himself to researching the diagnosis and treatment of typhoid fever.

The pain of losing his loved ones made Zhang Zhongjing bury his head in books. He was determined to completely control the epidemic of the plague and cure typhoid fever.

In the next few years, he "diligently sought ancient teachings and learned from all sides", studied hard, just to cure typhoid and other plagues.

In the past few years, he resigned from office and visited various places in the countryside to treat diseases, study typhoid fever, test treatment methods according to symptoms, sum up experience, and began to write books such as "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" and "Distinguishing Febrile Diseases". He found a certain cure. method, but it is not yet mature.

"Aww! The body is dead, the gods have been wiped out, turned into a foreign body, hidden in the deep spring, just weeping. Painful husband! The whole world is in a coma, and there is no way to wake up. I don't spare my life. If I commit suicide, what kind of glory is there? "

When "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" was written, Zhang Zhongjing had already experienced wars and sufferings, witnessed countless partings of life and death, and witnessed countless tragedies in the world.

Although Zhang Zhongjing was born in a powerful family, he is not the same as those people from the powerful family.

He is a real doctor, and he used his life to explain what is meant by the benevolence of a doctor.

In the original time and space, Zhang Zhongjing was requisitioned by the Han court and served as the governor of Changsha.

As a county guard, one must maintain dignity, and the Han court law does not allow the county guard to enter the houses to treat people's illnesses.

He set a schedule, and at a specific time, he asked people to post notices, opened the yamen, and let sick people in instead of asking about political affairs. He sat upright in the lobby and carefully diagnosed and treated the people one by one.

Therefore, people from all over the world gathered in front of the yamen in Changsha County seeking medical treatment, and some even came from afar with their luggage.

The origin of the name of sitting doctor is precisely because of Zhang Zhongjing.

Together with Hua Tuo and Dong Feng, Zhang Zhongjing is known as the "Three Genius Doctors of Jian'an".

But in fact, Zhang Zhongjing's status in history is actually higher than that of Hua Tuo and Dong Feng.

Throughout the ages, for 5000 years, it is not uncommon to be called a famous doctor like a carp crossing a river, and it is not uncommon to be called a miracle doctor.

But in this world, there is only one doctor who is called the "Medical Saint" by the common people.

Lide, meritorious service, and Liyan are the three immortals.

Above all, there is morality, followed by meritorious service, and secondly, standing up to words, although it will not be abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality.

To establish virtue means to establish the law, to give alms to the public, to make meritorious deeds means to save adversity and eliminate difficulties, and to make meritorious deeds at the right time.

These three immortals, Zhang Zhongjing has indeed achieved all of them.

Xu An didn't know the details of Zhang Zhongjing's life, and the Eagle Guard's focus was on military affairs and politics. After all, there was a difference in the responsibilities of the Eagle Guard and the Wolf Guard.

It's not that Xu An doesn't know anything about Zhang Zhongjing. Although it's been a long time, he can still recall the first time he saw Zhang Zhongjing's name in a book, and he also remembers the records about Zhang Zhongjing, even though it only took up less than half of his palm. length.

"History books are too small to contain a person's magnificent life."

"The history book is too big, it contains 5000 years of history in China."

"Turn over a page in the history book, and what you draw with a pen is likely to be their whole life."

When studying history, the deeds of those heroes, emperors and generals sometimes make people's blood boil, but after the silence, they can calm down very quickly.

However, those doctors who hang pots to help the world, people with lofty ideals who are desperate for the country, and ordinary common people will be remembered unconsciously.

"The kindness of the doctor..."

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the people were in dire straits, and it was extremely dark.

But Zhang Zhongjing is like a bright light, burning hard in the darkness, helping the world and saving the people.

If you are poor, you will be good for yourself, if you are rich, you will benefit the world, and you are worthy of the name of a medical saint.

Xu An bowed his head and bowed solemnly to Zhang Zhongjing.

"The next doctor, how can he bear the gift of the Taoist monarch?"

Zhang Zhongjing didn't dare to accept the ceremony. His respect for Xu An was not because of his authority, but because of the actions of the Ming army, which made him realize one thing. Different.

"Mr. Zhang hung a pot to help the world and save the villagers. Although I am thousands of miles away, I still heard about it."

"Nowadays, the world is pre-established, a thousand wastes are waiting to be revived, and epidemics are still prevalent in various places. Although there are thousands of doctors in the country, most of them are helpless to deal with the frequent epidemics due to limited medical skills."

Hua Tuo has comprehensive medical skills, especially in surgery. He is proficient in surgery, and is also proficient in internal medicine, gynecology, pediatrics, and acupuncture.

However, the research on the epidemic is extremely limited. Although the Zhangshui epidemic was resolved, it was actually due to the epidemic prevention measures. In fact, many people died, and only a small number of people were treated.

Hua Tuo only had one prescription for treating typhoid and sun disease, and the effect varied from person to person.

"I want to build another medical school in the East City of Chang'an, focusing on internal medicine and diseases, and hire Mr. Zhang as the dean to teach the method of fighting diseases, so as to eliminate the world's diseases..."

Zhang Zhongjing didn't hesitate at Xu An's request, and directly agreed.

Hua Tuo did not raise any objections to Xu An's direct promotion of Zhang Zhongjing as the dean.

He had no intention of official career, if he hadn't seen the life of the people under the rule of Taiping Dao, he would still be a wandering doctor to treat people's illnesses and injuries.

What's more, Zhang Zhongjing's medical skills are indeed extraordinary, and he is indeed much better than him in internal medicine and the treatment of epidemic diseases.

It is said that there are precedences and specializations in the field of surgery. In the field of surgery, Zhang Zhongjing is not as good as him.

Besides, his original intention of studying medicine was to cure diseases and save lives, not for any fame.

The addition of a medical school was not just a whim in Xu An's mind.

Now that the world has been established, the territory of the Ming Dynasty is more than tens of thousands of miles, elementary education has been promoted everywhere, but the number of higher education institutions is still only a few, which is naturally not enough, and must be continuously added.

A country's progress and development lie in the society, in the broadest masses and people.

Only by continuously popularizing and promoting education can more talents be selected to enter all walks of life.

It seems that although the invention and improvement of the spinning machine and the steam engine, as well as the application of electricity, although it is a flash of inspiration and a whim of a certain person, in the final analysis, it is still the result of the development of society.

It is precisely because of the promotion of education and the emancipation of the mind that more people have the opportunity to receive education, and the outstanding people who emerge from it make science and society progress and develop.

Ten years of trees, a hundred years of trees.

Education is also the cornerstone of a country, the cornerstone of development, and the cornerstone that determines a country's potential and future.

9 chapters, eight provinces and fourteen states

The sun in spring is warm and harmonious, without the scorching heat of midsummer, nor the coldness of winter. When it shines on people, it only makes people feel extremely warm.

On the official road, Xu An bathed in the sun, held a whip, and rode his horse. A group of generals followed closely behind on horseback, protecting Xu An.

In the middle of the official road, soldiers of the Ming army in the brigade were slowly moving forward, and ocher-yellow banners fluttered in the strong wind.

The military songs are loud and clear, and the sound vibrates the forest trees;

Just like when I went out of the city to march east.

It has been nearly three years since I left Chang'an.

In the second year of the Ming Dynasty (195), May [-]th, Pingdan.

He led all the troops to conquer Wei Ting eastward, raided all the way, captured Fanyang, aspired to the Central Plains, and collected all sixteen counties in the three prefectures of Hebei.

Now it is April 198th in the fifth year of the Ming Dynasty ([-]), and he finally embarked on the road to return home.

Xu An did not stay in Chen Du any longer.

It would be really unbelievable if the military management of the five states could cause any disturbances.

After returning to Chang'an, Xu An planned to transfer Liu Pi to Chendu to take charge of various affairs of the five prefectures.

Liu Pi has served as the commander of the Eagle Wolf Guard for many years, and has served as the supervisor of the country several times. He is familiar with government affairs and loyal, so he is the most suitable candidate.

It is absolutely impossible for Liu Pi to co-operate with those powerful families.

Today's Ming Dynasty is more than twice as wide as the Han Empire in the past, and the country has also changed from a prefecture system to a provincial system.

On the basis of the original thirteen prefectures in Han, the province of Liaozhou was separated, and the three northern provinces of Modong, Monan, and Beijiang were added. After that, Lu Bu sent troops to the North again. Fuzhu, and set up Anbei Capital Protectorate, which is at the same level as the province.

The Korean peninsula originally occupied by Sanhan was also included in the pocket and became the Haidong Province of the Ming Empire.

The four kingdoms of Liaodong perished, and the country was deposed. They were divided into three parts, one part was classified as Haidong Province, one part was classified as Liaozhou, and one part was set as Far East Province.

Going further to the north and east, at this time, it is a deserted place, and there are not many signs of human activities.

The advance team of the Eagle Wolf Guard set up several outposts in Xianbelia, further north, and planted the flag of the Ming Dynasty. This place was also included in the territory by Xu An, and it was classified as a new line. Province, named the Far North Province.

If it is divided according to the geographical division of later generations, the Far North Province starts from the Bering Strait in the east, extends to the Arctic Ocean in the north, and ends at the Yenisei River in the west.

There are no provinces on the left and right, and the governor of the Northern Xinjiang Province is actually the governor of the Far North Province, and the two provinces are one.

The Protectorate of the Western Regions changed the Protectorate of the Western Regions into a province, named the Province of the Western Regions, under the jurisdiction of the Governor and the Three Divisions, and Guo Tai therefore became the Governor of the Western Regions.

Seeing how the Ming army defeated the battle between the Dawan Kingdom and the Guishuang Empire, and how the countries in the Western Regions dared to resist, after the Ming court envoys arrived, they could only accept the officials to express their submission.

There is also a province in southern Xinjiang, named Nanhai Province. Its territory includes Panyue, Pyu, Shan, Linyi, and various tribes in southern Xinjiang, and it will continue to expand in the future.

The Panyue Kingdom and the Piao Kingdom declared their force in the Ming army, and decisively chose Fengming Court as the suzerain state.

I have to sigh that the ignorant are fearless. Lin Yiguo was originally unwilling to surrender. They have maintained their independence since they rebelled against the Han court. They don't have much awe of the Ming court that replaced the Han court. They even feel that the Ming army can't do anything to them. Even after the Ming army took over Jiuzhen County, Linyiguo's army dared to invade Linyiguo.

As a border state and county in Yizhou, Xu An gave him the right to act cheaply.

Zhou Cang, who had just taken over Jiuzhen County, didn't expect that Lin Yiguo would be so bold. He suffered a small loss first, and then Zhou Cang, who reacted, mobilized soldiers and horses, and defeated Lin Yiguo's army in one battle.

How can those Linyi soldiers wearing this leather armor and holding weapons that are not even iron weapons be the opponents of Wudang Feijun? What's more, Zhou Cang also has elephant soldiers from the Pyu Kingdom and infantry from the Shan Kingdom under Zhou Cang's command. Can those half-baked soldiers compare?

Zhou Cang went south all the way, and within a month he destroyed five cities in Linyi Kingdom, and in the last battle, he defeated the capital of Linyi Kingdom and captured Linyi King alive.

Killed the king of Linyi on the coast of the South China Sea, re-established Rinan County, and restored the homeland of the former Han Dynasty.

Lin Yiguo is actually not strong, the reason why it can exist for such a long time is entirely because the Central Plains is chaotic and has no time to look south.

His country is watching the sky from a well, thinking that no one can control its strength.

If you let him know how vast China's territory is, and witness the scene of the two armies in the Central Plains fighting with his own eyes, he might not even dare to approach the frontier, and bow his head tremblingly.

So Xu An ordered Zhou Cang to temporarily guard Rinan, and ordered people to build ports in Jiuzhen and Rinan counties.

Occupy southern Xinjiang and set up a port, so that the fleet dispatched to the West will have a place to settle and replenish supplies, and the voyage will be much smoother.

And when the commercial routes are opened, these ports will also prosper, which in turn will drive the prosperity and prosperity of the surrounding areas.

In the next step, Xu An plans to relocate the people of the Central Plains to fill up the frontiers of the four directions, and gradually turn the four directions into the land of China.

However, in order to achieve all of this, the population of Ming country is obviously not enough.

The population is still being counted in various places. It is conservatively estimated that after all the slaves are liberated and the hidden households are checked out, the population of the whole country should be more than 4000 million.

Compared with other countries in the world at this time, the population of the Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly a terrifying figure, but it is not enough to spread across such a vast territory.

However, most parts of the country are at peace now, and the land owned by powerful families has been confiscated and directly rented out to the local people, and there are also a series of work-for-relief programs.

People in the five prefectures of Han and other places are living a far better life than they were under the rule of the Han court.

It is foreseeable that in the next few years, the country will usher in several waves of births.

The resources are rich, the country is peaceful, and there is no need to worry about the issue of survival. The population will inevitably achieve a blowout growth.

In the era of cold weapons, population is a very important strategic resource.

Now, Xu An is going to keep the current territory for the time being, and postpone the expansion of the territory for a few years. After all, one is the population shortage, and the other is that there is a lot of waste in the country, and there are still many problems that have not been resolved.

Today, there are eight provinces and fourteen prefectures in the Ming Dynasty, which are Zhongzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Jingzhou, Qingzhou, Yangzhou, Liangzhou, Yizhou, Liaozhou, and Jiaozhou.

There are also eight provinces of Modong, Monan, Northern Xinjiang, Far East, Western Regions, Southern Xinjiang, Far North, and Anbei Protectorate, which serve as barriers.

If Dongyi Island is included, two new provinces will be added.

As an overseas island, it is natural that one province cannot be set up, and it must be checked and balanced. Otherwise, once the heart of separatism arises, the ocean will be its best barrier.

Perhaps it is more appropriate to call the Ming Kingdom today the "Great Ming Empire", and this title of empire is well-deserved.

The backward productivity of the farming society and the backward industrial technology in ancient times restricted the development of ancient China, making it extremely difficult to maintain a vast territory.

Those countries with vast territory in history will eventually lose their territory after the country weakens, because of insufficient national strength, exhausted expeditions, inconvenient transportation, extremely long time for news exchanges, inconvenient management and many other problems.

But after all this will be no problem...

Because not long after he took charge of Chen Du, in the Taihang Mountain workshop, the gunpowder had been successfully trial-produced, and the technology of the steam engine had gradually matured.

The principle of the steam engine is generally clear, and those craftsmen who have experienced systematic education are constantly improving the steam engine, improving its efficiency, and trying to use it in practice.

However, due to the lack of rubber and lack of seals, there are some difficulties that are difficult to break through after all.

Xu An looked back to the east, time was running out, and the ocean-going fleet had to set off in the spring of next year at the latest.

Ocean voyages are extremely risky in this era. To be honest, Xu An doesn't have much confidence in his heart, but no matter how high the cost is, the ocean journey is a must.

The future of the country lies at sea.

Xu An's heart slowly turned cold. A single fleet is not safe, and he must be prepared. All eggs cannot be put in one basket.
