Chapter 154: The Usefulness of the Old Dao!


Cao Cao was silent for a moment before he said, "Cang Shu wants to say something, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Cao Chong glanced at Cao Cao, and first exhaled a breath of turbidity, and then said slowly: "What the child said is about the Southern Expedition."

After saying this, Cao Chong felt that it was inappropriate, so he added another sentence.

"The child knows that he is young and ignorant, and he should not talk about his father's state affairs, but Cao Chong is" "That's it, but you say it's okay" Cao Cao waved his hand at Cao Chong, and he didn't seem to have any prejudice against Cao Chong because of his young age.

"It's all a family, why are you still grinding and chirping" Cao Cao glared at Cao Chong, but there was some accusation between his eyebrows Seeing Cao Cao's reaction, Cao Chong immediately said his words.

"The boy advised his father to bring more doctors and medicine for the plague."

Can the plague be cured?

It's not nonsense, of course Is there any service disease in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River PlainThe answer is: Yes Schistosomiasis is the so-called plague, and in the 21st century, there are still susceptible people, and most students have to get vaccinated.

Cao Chong was fortunate to go to Hubei to study in his previous life, and he couldn't be more familiar with this military disease Schistosomiasis is very susceptible to infecting people and spreads in many ways, and Cao Chong was afraid that he was infected with schistosomiasis in his previous life.

But although schistosomiasis is severe, it can also be treated, of course, Cao Chong does not want treatment, because with the medical conditions of this era, it is too reluctant to treat this labor disease that will still be troubled by later generations What Cao Chong wants is prevention, and it is to get Cao Cao's attention In fact, when the Northeast Field Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army crossed the Yangtze River in 1949, 30,000 or 40,000 people were infected with schistosomiasis, and when Napoleon's army was in Africa, soldiers also contracted the disease.

However, the epidemic infection of these two armies did not change history, but Cao Cao was very unlucky, and his dream of unifying the world was robbed by schistosomiasis.

If Cao Cao's soldiers had not encountered this plague, China would not have had the Three Kingdoms era, where they were inseparable from each other, and we might have had a lot less to talk about, but the common people would have suffered a lot less.

Reasonably, Cao Chong felt that he had to do something for the people of this era.

"Plague" The power of the plague Cao Cao naturally knew that in fact, in this era, there were many plagues, and they were also valued by the rulers.

Wang Cang, one of the seven sons of Jian'an, also recorded in the seven mourning poems: "When you go out, you can't see anything, and the white bones cover the plain."

There are hungry women on the road, holding their children and abandoning the grass.

Gu heard the crying sound and waved his tears and refused to return it.

I don't know where I died, how can I drive the horse away after the two phases, I can't bear to listen to this.

It is a true portrayal of the bleak scene at that time.

According to historical records, in the more than 70 years from Emperor Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty to Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, 17 epidemics of epidemics were recorded.

The epidemic has been going on for many years, and people are not struggling to make a living, even the doctors have not been spared.

For example, Xu Gan, Chen Lin, Ying Ling, and Liu Zhen in the famous "Seven Sons of Jian'an" in the history of literature also passed away for a while.

The tragic situation can be seen.

So as soon as Cao Cao heard the word plague, his heart was raised, and after this heart was mentioned in his throat, Cao Cao's heart was a little strange.

Cangshu, you can't predict whether the prophet will not succeed, we haven't set out yet, and you know that there will be a military disease Even if there was a question in his mind, Cao Cao immediately asked.

"Cangshu, where did you get this from?"

Cao Chong's heart sank, but he dared to say these words, so he was naturally prepared.

"This matter is all said by the old way" Road Cao Cao frowned, people like Cao Cao who rose from blood and fire generally didn't believe in those ghosts, gods, and astrological phenomena.

He only believed in the sword in his hand, the sergeants around him, and the supreme power If Cao Chong had said this kind of thing a day ago, Cao Cao would not have let go if he didn't scold Cao Chong for being a bloody dog.

But now he didn't scold, and even had a thoughtful look on his face.

This old Taoist is not an ordinary Taoist priest, he is a person who knows about the sacred object of gunpowder.

People who know about gods are naturally gods, and even if Cao Cao is not particularly feudal and superstitious about the revelation of gods, he must weigh the pros and cons in his heart.

It's better to believe in what you have than what you don't have The theory of ghosts and gods in China, especially the theory of ghosts and gods in this era, is really like a carp crossing the river, innumerable, and even the old Liu family is a family that sells ghosts and gods.

What to cut the white snake, what is the "heaven and man induction", "five virtues are always theoretical", the title of the Son of Heaven was actually established after Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because there is "heaven and man induction", so the emperor can accept God's will.

His holy decree is to uphold the will of God, and he is the emperor, the spokesman of God, and the son of God, so he is called the Son of Heaven Cao Cao's eyes were dazzling, but he turned his head to Xun Yu next to him.

Ask Xun Yu something, this is a habit that Cao Cao and Xun Yu have developed after working together for more than ten years.

"If the text thinks it is credible" Xun Yu is a scholar or a Confucian, so he naturally has an instinctive dislike for the so-called old way, but the disgust with different ideas is disgust.

This old way can create such a divine thing as gunpowder, naturally it can't be an ordinary person.

Even if he said that there would be a military disease in the southern expedition, it didn't seem to be a bad thing to bring more medicinal herb doctors.

Take precautions Therefore, after thinking for a while, Xun Yu immediately saluted Cao Cao.

"Lord, Xun Yu thinks that this matter must not be believed, nor can it be fully believed" In the past, Cao Cao chose the right time to go on expeditions, and the plague could disrupt Cao Cao's itinerary, but this illusory plague didn't know how long it would take to leave, and the most important thing was that Cao Cao couldn't afford to wait.

This march and war relied on the right time and place, Cao Cao had many people, and he occupied the people, but the time and place were in the hands of Liu Bei and Sun Quan.

Especially the location The danger of the Yangtze River seems to be nothing in later generations, but in this era of underdeveloped shipbuilding, the so-called giant ships are actually not as big as a fishing boat in later generations Such a ship, if it were not in the dry season in winter, it would be one thing for Cao Cao to cross the Yangtze River.

Therefore, Cao Cao would not stop this war machine that had been prepared for a long time because of this illusory plague.

"If that's the case, then tomorrow an edict will be issued to levy the doctors of the four states of Xudu" Xun Yu nodded in agreement, but Cao Chong remembered someone at this time.

Hua Tuo's personal disciple Chen Ming, I don't know if he has any opinion on this matter After Cao Cao said this, his eyes were fixed on Cao Chong again.

"Cangshu's advice, how dare I not listen, but the suggestion is a suggestion, and the reward is still needed" Cao Cao looked at Cao Chong, and then said: "Only your request is not excessive, and my father will agree to it all":
