Chang Sun Dechong still remembers the events of the past few days clearly.
When Qin Hui and the others saw the cement blocks, they were in disbelief. Cement could exhibit such extraordinary hardness. Of the materials they were familiar with, except for scrap iron, which was slightly tougher, the rest were just ordinary soil. How could they compare to the hardness of stone?
After Chang Sun Dechong came out of the palace that day, he called Qin Hui and others and gave them all the disaster relief methods given by Chu Fan for them to check.
Of course, Chang Sun Dechong did not say at that time that these disaster relief methods were given to him by Chu Fan. After all, Chang Sun Dechong was also worried that if the plan was not practical or difficult to implement, it might cause court officials to question the emperor's ability to govern the country, and these ministers might not obey the emperor's arrangements in the future.
When Qin Hui and the others saw the disaster relief strategy presented by Changsun Dechong, they were all stunned. Changsun Dechong's proposal not only meticulously planned the resettlement of the victims, but also comprehensively covered disease prevention and treatment strategies. It also foresightedly incorporated a blueprint for post-disaster reconstruction and production recovery. The sheer detail and comprehensiveness of this strategy, reminiscent of a profound insight into and pre-emptive assessment of the disaster, deeply impressed every minister present.
In terms of epidemic prevention, the strategy details various possible epidemics and their preventive measures. It emphasizes the importance of personal hygiene, advocating that disaster victims wash their hands frequently, drink hot water, and keep their living environments clean and well-ventilated.
Secondly, a special epidemic prevention team was established to patrol among the disaster victims, promptly identifying and isolating those suspected of being ill to prevent the spread of the epidemic. At the same time, an epidemic reporting system was established. Even if the city guards were larger, they would not be able to take care of so many disaster victims.
If we check the hundreds of thousands of people who have arrived one by one every day, it will take a lot of time, so we can only let the victims supervise each other and report them. In this way, for the sake of their own health, the victims will report the sick people around them to the city guards for monitoring.
In addition, the strategy also mentioned the use of traditional Chinese medicine for prevention and treatment. Of course, these methods had to be examined by the imperial physicians. As long as they were proven to be safe and effective, they would be immediately arranged.
Qin Hui clutched the paper tightly in his hand, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He had originally viewed Changsun Dechong as a rough-hewn warrior, believing that as long as he was given a plan, he would be able to carry it out conscientiously.
They had never expected him to display such profound insight and meticulous planning in disaster response. This strategy not only deftly resolved the immediate crisis but also laid a solid foundation for long-term, stable development. This astonished Qin Hui and the others, who wondered when the Minister of War had become so proficient in disaster relief and epidemic prevention.
"Lord Changsun, is this strategy really your idea?" There was a barely perceptible tremor in Qin Hui's voice. He could hardly suppress his inner excitement and deep admiration for Changsun Dechong.
Chang Sun Dechong asked, "Prime Minister Qin, do you think these disaster relief and epidemic prevention strategies can be implemented? Will they improve the situation of the victims?"
Qin Hui replied, "This strategy is very good, much better than the one we formulated."
Qin Hui had already given up comparing herself to Changsun Dechong. Everyone knew what kind of person Changsun Dechong was. And now that Changsun Dechong had come up with such a comprehensive disaster relief and epidemic prevention strategy, there must have been someone behind the scenes advising him.
However, nothing is more important now than disaster relief and epidemic prevention, and the strategies proposed by Chang Sun Dechong are very complete. They not only take into account the food of different age groups, but also propose various methods of epidemic prevention.
Qin Hui, along with his eldest grandson, Dechong, and others, began intensive preparations. Following the strategic plan, they methodically advanced the resettlement of disaster victims, disease prevention and treatment, and post-disaster reconstruction and production resumption. Every step was meticulously executed to ensure the greatest possible relief for the victims and the restoration of national strength.
Just a few days later, the disaster relief and epidemic prevention strategies implemented by Changsun Dechong, Qin Hui, and others began to show their remarkable effectiveness. Under the orderly arrangements, the victims gradually emerged from their despair and regained their vitality. Thanks to the concerted efforts of everyone, the once chaotic refugee camps were restored to order, and sanitary conditions were greatly improved.
Epidemic prevention teams shuttled among the disaster victims daily, promptly identifying and isolating patients, effectively curbing the outbreak and spread of the epidemic. At the same time, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) prevention and treatment methods were widely promoted. Imperial physicians meticulously formulated prescriptions, verified, and quickly distributed to every disaster victim, providing a solid line of defense for their health.
In food distribution, Changsun Dechong paid special attention to the nutritional needs of different age groups, ensuring that every disaster victim received food suitable for them. This measure greatly improved the physical fitness of the disaster victims and laid a solid foundation for their recovery and reconstruction.
When Qin Hui and others came to Chang Sun Dechong's house again, after learning that Chang Sun Dechong had made cement, everyone knew that the second half of the disaster relief plan could be implemented.
However, Qin Hui and the others were now increasingly eager to know who had provided such a brilliant disaster relief plan to Changsun Dechong. Such a talented person should be recruited into the court to contribute to the prosperity of Wei.
Qin Hui looked directly at Changsun Dechong and questioned him, "Minister Changsun, please be honest. Who gave you these disaster relief strategies and the cement recipe? I can't believe you were able to come up with such a thorough plan all by yourself."
Changsun Dechong didn't dare to take credit for it at this time, but humbly said, "I got all this from His Majesty the Emperor. A few days ago, on the first day of disaster relief, His Majesty Chu Fan went to visit the victims outside Kaifeng City. In His Majesty's eyes, the disaster relief strategy at the time was completely flawed. The next day, His Majesty summoned me to the Imperial Study and reprimanded me. Then His Majesty handed these disaster relief strategies to me."
Qin Hui continued to confirm, "Minister Changsun, are you sure these strategies were all thought up by His Majesty?"
Changsun Dechong replied, "When I first went to the Imperial Study, His Majesty was still writing. I also observed that His Majesty looked extremely haggard. He must have been writing all night long."
Qin Hui and the others were all surprised when they heard this; they had never expected such ingenious disaster relief strategies to come from the Emperor. In their minds, His Majesty Chu Fan had always been a reclusive and mysterious monarch, but now it seemed he had such profound thoughts. His absence from court was simply due to no important matters requiring His Majesty's consideration.
"Lord Changsun, Your Majesty has such foresight and vision. It is a blessing for our Wei Kingdom!" Qin Hui praised sincerely, and a feeling of admiration for His Majesty Chu Fan arose in her heart.
Changsun Dechong nodded and continued, "Your Majesty not only pointed out the shortcomings of the original strategy, but also personally participated in its improvement and refinement. Every detail of this strategy embodies Your Majesty's painstaking efforts and wisdom. It now appears that Your Majesty's decision is undoubtedly correct. We only need to diligently implement it."
