There is no time harder than now, if there is, it will be tomorrow.
Faced with Bao Gu's request to enter the epidemic area, Lin Hai refused without hesitation.
Just kidding, because I know very little about medicine, I have cultivated a student with medical talent like Bao Gu over the years. The entire Qinghe's health system was basically built up brick by brick by Bao Gu. To put it more clearly, from the original Qinghe to the current alliance, the health system was built on Bao Gu.
Especially when the imperial doctors of several other countries on duty at the front line said that they had no way to deal with this unprecedented plague, Bao Gu basically became Lin Hai's last hope, and he would never tolerate Bao Gu taking risks.
"Principal, you shouldn't have rejected me."
Although she couldn't bear to see Lin Hai's haggard face, Bao Gu still said this after taking Lin Hai's pulse.
"I know what you mean, but you and your students are our only hope. If you really want to argue with me, you might as well hurry up and research the antidote."
Lin Hai said unhappily.
There were only Lin Hai, Xia Junao and Bao Gu at the scene. Lin Hai was not worried that if he said something wrong, it would affect morale.
"But Principal, do you remember? You told me that researching an antidote for any plague takes a long time. If I could develop an antidote for a plague in my lifetime, I would be far superior to the sages who came before me. But we simply don't have enough time right now. Even if we can wait, the soldiers on the front lines can't."
Bao Gu stood below and spoke seriously. Such an expression seemed to remind Lin Hai of something. He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, during the epidemic that swept the entire earth, he also saw such an expression on TV while isolated at home. At that time, such an expression appeared on the faces of the medical staff who supported the epidemic area.
This moved Lin Hai a little, and he couldn't help but ask:
"If I let you in, will you be able to find a solution?"
"Principal, ten days ago you ordered the severing of all communication between the front lines and the rear. Our knowledge of the front lines and the epidemic comes entirely from the descriptions of military doctors on the front lines. In fact, to this day, I haven't seen a single patient. We simply prescribe medicine in the rear based on their symptoms and then use catapults to throw it to the front lines. This is wrong. We will miss many opportunities."
"Then you should also know that this also makes you miss many opportunities to die!"
Faced with such an excellent and responsible student like Bao Gu, Lin Hai was always reluctant to lose his temper, but Bao Gu's persistence had already made him a little angry.
"Principal, your epidemic prevention policy is very effective. At least we still have quite a few uninfected soldiers on the front lines. But you should also be aware that the Abyss's army is still firing bacterial bombs at our positions, causing the number of infected people to continue to rise.
You once told me a principle: a plague can't have both a high mortality rate and high infectiousness. After ten days of observation, we've concluded that the diseases that have already begun to spread are highly infectious but have a low mortality rate. This means that within ten days, all the soldiers on the front lines will be infected."
"You also said it has a low fatality rate, so you still have time."
"Principal, this time ten plagues broke out simultaneously. At first, I didn't understand why the Abyss did this. After all, one or two plagues would be enough to destroy us. Too many plagues appearing at the same time are actually not conducive to the spread of the plagues. They are too easy to kill people.
Only now did I understand that the Abyss was worried that the high infectiousness and low mortality rate would allow us to escape, so they threw ten pathogens at us at the same time. Even if each disease is highly infectious and has a low mortality rate, the combination of all ten of them, their own symptoms and the complications they bring, are enough to kill everyone, but with a slight delay."
Xia Junao, who had been listening attentively to the conversation between the master and disciple, stood up immediately after hearing this. He didn't even notice that his voice was shaking. "Master Bao Gu, are you saying that everyone infected with the disease will die? Even if their symptoms don't seem that serious?"
"Yes, Your Majesty Xia Junao."
Xia Junao's body swayed, and then he collapsed directly into the chair.
There was no way. Even he, a man who was used to being an emperor and used to seeing big scenes, was shocked by the news and was speechless.
Abyss, what a poisonous heart.
Not to mention that more than half of the standing army of the Daliang Empire is now deployed on the front lines. Duke Yan Longqiu alone is someone he cannot afford to abandon. What's more, the front-line military doctor reported this morning that although strict epidemic prevention policies have been implemented, Duke Yan Longqiu has already developed symptoms - not serious yet, but the military doctors are still helpless.
You know, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, even though the military doctor threatened to die, Long Qiu still inspected the positions every day, especially the isolation area for the wounded and sick, just to let the soldiers know that they have not been abandoned and the senior officers of the alliance are still with them.
"How many people know this news?"
Lin Hai asked solemnly.
"This is the conclusion reached by the entire medical team in the rear. Master Sun, I, the imperial physicians who came to support us, and the doctors recruited from the local area all know this news."
After saying this, Bao Gu paused and continued:
"Principal, you know, this kind of news can't be concealed, and it must not be concealed. Otherwise, our army will collapse in an instant."
"Okay."
Lin Hai waved his hand weakly and said:
"I know why you're clamoring to go in. You don't just want to get treated, right? You want to give them hope and prevent the currently healthy soldiers from mutinying?"
