Bai Shuang got up at 6 a.m. today to sort out the medicines that the pharmaceutical factory had received last time.
She and Xue Bao were having breakfast when there was a knock on the door. Bai Shuang saw on the screen that it was her brother upstairs and opened the door.
"Miss Bai, quite a few people in our camp have fallen ill today. Our leader sent us to find you. Could you come and take a look?"
How could she not go? The officers and soldiers work hard for the people, and Bai Shuang admires them from the bottom of her heart. Besides, Lu Yu is a good person and he won't treat her unfairly.
With Anming in tow, Bai Jiu, Bai Chang, and Xue Bao stayed behind to watch the house. The brothers upstairs went with them; the house couldn't be left unattended, and having too many people there posed a risk of infection.
Bai Shuang carried a bag on her back and a large medicine box in her hand as she walked downstairs.
At this moment, the brothers upstairs were waiting at the window, where a speedboat was placed, and Dr. An was already on it.
They took the box from Bai Shuang, boarded the boat, and sped off towards the edge of the residential area.
It was still raining outside, and as I looked out over the vast expanse of water, only half-buildings or rooftops were visible, which made me feel particularly depressed.
The camp was located in several connected office buildings. Before disembarking, Bai Shuang took out protective suits, and the group put them on.
Upon entering the building, a soldier guarding the door led them to Lu Yu's temporary office.
The Lu Yu that Bai Shuang saw again was different from the one she last time; he was spirited, strong, and confident.
His eyes were bloodshot, clearly he hadn't slept all night, and his face looked exhausted, but he still retained his authority.
A pang of heartache flashed through Bai Shuang's heart. He was only a few years older than her, yet he had to bear so much.
His hand moved involuntarily, taking out a bottle of mineral water mixed with spiritual spring water from his bag and handing it over.
"I added medicine to this water; drinking it will relieve fatigue."
Lu Yu is in charge of Zou Province, and Tangcheng is the capital city of Zou Province.
When he arrived, he realized that the actual situation was far more difficult and complicated than he had imagined.
The flood not only submerged people's homes, but also their means of survival, especially food.
Fortunately, he had stored some supplies before the disaster struck. On the night of the disaster, he acted decisively and salvaged vital resources such as the food depot. Otherwise, what would the people in the shelters eat? Where would the initial relief food have come from?
In the face of natural disasters, there is nothing anyone can do. At this point, all we can do is save as many as we can. After all, soldiers are human, not gods.
Without food, rescuing people is pointless; even if they are rescued, they will starve to death, and even the officers and soldiers themselves will starve to death.
With supplies unable to be provided by higher authorities, officers and soldiers are salvaging supplies in water dozens of meters deep every day, and now disease is rampant...
He looked up and saw Bai Shuang, breathed a sigh of relief, and sincerely said, "Thank you!"
Lu Yu and a military doctor surnamed Ma led Bai Shuang and the others to the ward.
He talked about the sick soldiers as he walked along the road.
During this period, people in the military camp kept falling ill. Despite the best efforts of the military doctors, there was a shortage of medicine, and with too many patients and insufficient medical personnel, the situation spiraled out of control.
The number of patients is increasing, and the death toll is also rising.
Some died from illness, while others died from injuries that were not treated in time.
It wasn't until May Day, when General Lu received a batch of mugwort incense and medicine from a renowned doctor, that the disease stopped spreading.
But the good times didn't last long. Last night, the soldiers were rescuing supplies in deep water and were exhausted when they returned, so they didn't pay attention to their physical condition.
This morning we discovered that many people have already contracted the disease and are unable to get out of bed, and some are experiencing symptoms such as high fever and chills.
Left with no other choice, they sent someone to fetch Bai Shuang.
Based on what Dr. Ma said, it is clearly a viral infection, but we do not know which virus it is at the moment.
When Bai Shuang arrived at the ward and saw the situation, she realized that what Dr. Ma had said was not an exaggeration at all.
In the huge ward, there were hundreds or thousands of young patients lying on the beds.
In the prime of their youth, the needs of the motherland have made them shoulder the responsibility of building a Great Wall of Steel and become the backbone of the people.
But who can see this vulnerable side of them?
The patients were all pale and weak, many had flushed faces, and some were already convulsing...
Although moxibustion sticks are lit, they can only eliminate external toxins and are not very effective against viruses inside the body.
There's simply no time to test the virus, because by the time you get the results, most of them will already be dead.
In such a large military unit, the medical team only has a dozen or so people. Normally it's fine, but once there's an infectious disease outbreak, even if they work day and night, they still can't keep up.
A layer of frost gradually settled over the young girl's beautiful eyes. She said to the officer beside her, "Prepare warm water immediately, the more the better. Find dozens of people to help."
At this time, An Ming and Dr. Ma had already begun administering acupuncture to the critically ill patient.
Bai Shuang turned to the other medical staff and said, "Take the patients' temperatures and mark those who don't have a fever."
She started preparing the medicine herself. When she came, she brought a large medicine chest to avoid being seen. It was full of prepared space medicines.
Soon, the soldiers brought over buckets of diluted warm water.
Lu Yu was also helping Bai Shuang move the bucket when a soldier came over and said he had something to report, so he went out.
Bai Shuang poured a bottle of spiritual spring water into each bucket, and then added medicines such as those for clearing heat, detoxifying, and reducing fever.
The spiritual spring water has excellent disinfecting and healing effects, but people with weak constitutions cannot tolerate overly concentrated spiritual spring water, and it is also easy to attract the attention of others.
Two kinds of medicine were prepared: one with added antipyretics, and the other for soldiers who did not have a fever.
Instruct the soldiers to take protective measures and begin feeding each patient a bowl of medicine.
