The light is as small as a bean, dim and warm yellow.
The two of them were half-lying on the soft couch. Yang Yanzong recounted what had happened in the past two days in a very gentle tone. Su Ci hugged the soft pillow, half-lifted her trouser legs and placed them on his thighs, lying there lazily and without any image, with a tuft of cute bangs sticking up.
Yang Yanzong pulled her hair and asked, "Why did you cut your hair again?"
In ancient times, bangs were exclusive to unmarried girls. After marriage, they would grow their hair longer and no longer cut it short. They would be tied into a bun together with other hair. There was a ceremony called "opening the face". After the face was opened, when getting married, it meant saying goodbye to the girl's hairstyle.
Su Ci doesn't care about that. For her, facial bangs are just about twisting her facial hair with a thread, and then it's over. She likes to have bangs.
She smiled, pushed her ahoge back, and rolled over on the short couch, almost falling off. Yang Yanzong quickly pulled her back. She was startled but not afraid at all, and lay on his chest, laughing and poking him.
Yang Yanzong stroked her messy hair. He didn't want to argue with her about these things now. Fine, if she likes to keep it, then keep it. He pinched her calf and asked, "Did you not do the horse stance today?"
Su Ci wanted to practice martial arts, so he took some time out to guide her. On the inside, he guided her in meditation and breathing, and on the outside, he taught her horse stance. No matter who you are, if you want to practice martial arts, you have to go through this process, from the basics to the advanced. It is very hard and boring at the beginning.
Su Ci immediately shut up. She had been doing horse stance for an hour yesterday, which was the minimum requirement. It took her seven or eight times to finish it. She couldn't endure it for a day. My god, this ancient martial arts of standing still was not a job for humans. She rubbed the medicated oil on herself for a long time before she could fall asleep. She still grimaced in pain when she woke up the next day.
No, I’m quitting. It’s said that one has to spend two years in the industry to be considered successful, and she really can’t do it anymore.
No wonder one has to start practicing from childhood to achieve great success. It is too painful for adults to learn after their bones have hardened.
Su Ci played dead. Yang Yanzong asked her twice but she pretended not to hear him. She hugged his neck and acted coquettishly, "I'm hungry and sleepy. Are you coming for your midnight snack?"
All right, I had guessed that this delicate girl wouldn't last long. Yang Yanzong curled his lips, picked her up horizontally, put her on the table and sat her down, looking up: "Come in."
The midnight snack arrived a long time ago, but Akang was smart. He knocked on the door gently once, but there was no response, so he stopped knocking.
Akang looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and brought in the food box.
Yang Yanzong hadn't had dinner yet. This dinner was also a midnight snack. Su Ci glanced at the big food box and kicked him with her foot.
——Before she got married, she didn’t like to do the job of arranging dishes and bowls, let alone now.
She glanced at him. After all, this job is usually done by the man in a relationship.
Yang Yanzong was so angry that he pinched the tender flesh on her calf and twisted it around. Su Ci screamed and laughed. The two of them made a fuss for a while, and finally he had no choice but to get up and was dragged over by the food box with a stern face.
Su Ci reached out and picked up a pair of chopsticks, sucked them and waited.
After he put away the plates and bowls with a sullen face, she smiled, picked up a piece of stir-fried pork with garlic chives and put it to his mouth.
Boss Yang glanced at her and snorted.
"Please give me some of that stir-fried yellow sprouts over there!" She was not wearing shoes and her arms were not long enough.
Yang Yanzong picked up some for her, but when he was putting it halfway in her bowl, he somehow changed his mind and sent it directly to her mouth.
Su Ci smiled and glanced at him with her beautiful big eyes, then ate it.
He took a little too much and some food fell. In order to avoid waste, she picked up everything that fell in the bowl and ate them together. Her cheeks were a little bulging, and the food looked especially pink and cute. Yang Yanzong lowered his head and kissed her on the face.
Wow, so oily!
In order to prevent him from making another surprise attack and also to reward Boss Yang for his progress, Su Ci flatteringly added several chopsticks of his favorite stir-fried dishes and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Don't eat too much, or you'll have indigestion later."
In fact, Yang Yanzong was not afraid of indigestion. He had eaten countless meals on horseback during years of marching, and the soldiers all had strong stomachs. However, he still appreciated her nagging and exhortations, so he did as she said and ate most of the bowl of rice.
Although Yang Yanzong did some work today that he thought a man shouldn't do (arranging dishes), but in the warm and sweet atmosphere where they fed each other with chopsticks, whispered, and heard her clear laughter from time to time, he actually felt that it was not bad.
Okay, it's just a small matter, it's okay to let her go.
After they ate until they were about 50% full, they put down their chopsticks, brushed their teeth, and rolled around on the bed for more than a quarter of an hour, playing an adult game that almost went wrong. Finally, Yang Yanzong patted her red face and said, "It's late, go to bed."
He bit her ear and said, "I'll give it to you when we get home." This wasn't the right place.
This man actually abides by military discipline so strictly that he can hold back even when he is about to explode. Su Ci is a bad-hearted person. She stretched out her foot to touch him. He gasped, turned over, grabbed her neck, bit her face hard, and attacked her ribs with his hands.
Su Ci screamed and laughed wildly, almost dying of laughter. Her face felt a little stinging, and she didn't dare to look at it: "Sleep! Sleep!! I'm sleepy hahahahaha"
The two of them played around for a while, and when they fell back on the bed, it was already past three o'clock in the morning. Su Ci felt sleepy and opened her eyes to look at him. The last scene froze on him was when he extinguished the candle with a hairpin and turned around, his face magnified, as if he was going to kiss her forehead, but in the end, she didn't know whether the kiss happened or not, because she had fallen asleep.
Yang Yanzong opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling of the tent for a long time, then turned his head to look at the person in his arms. The girl felt hot again and grumbled and wanted to turn over again, but this time he tightened his arms and would not let her get out.
She turned over twice without success, grumbled and complained for a while, and finally pulled at her collar and calmed down.
He leaned over and kissed her open collar, curled his lips, and closed his eyes.
…
It was the middle of the night, and there was a breeze. The slightly cool breeze blew in through the half-open screen window, which should have been a good night's sleep.
But something went wrong.
This matter was related to the news Yang Yanzong had just received in the past two days. The news obtained by the old emperor's spies in Beirong was not false, and the preparations of the Left Wise King Wushetuqi were earlier and more comprehensive than they had imagined. There was no other reason, because the Right Wise King Yilingxie had made a major breakthrough in his proposal to seek opportunities in the East China Sea.
In the island country, they exchanged for a special medicine and a large amount of medicinal materials and food, which lifted the spirits of the Beirong leaders and made them very happy. Currently, Yiling Xiezheng is personally leading the team to secretly contact the other island countries. It is said that everything was going smoothly until Wushetuqi and his uncle King Zuoguli led their troops to invade the south.
Wushetuqi had no choice but to be anxious. The Northern Rong respected the left, and in principle, the Left Wise King had priority in succession to the throne over the Right Wise King. But this was only a principle. The Northern Rong had always been ruled by capable people, and Yilingxie of the East Sea had already taken the lead. If Wushetuqi wanted to suppress the other side again, this invasion to the south must be a success!
He must take this ancient mountain pass, the northern border defense line must be broken, and a major defeat of Daqing is inevitable!
But unfortunately, the battle situation was not as expected, and Wushetuqi soon put his prepared backup plan on the agenda.
There was a traitor, and the traitor was in a high position and had considerable power, so the plan was quickly implemented and succeeded.
No matter whether it was Yang Yanzong, Ji Yuanhao or Tong Jie'en, they all predicted that the Northern Rong would join forces with the spy to do something sinister, but no one expected that Wushe Tuqi's plan would be so vicious and the matter would end up being so big!
It is difficult to add to the saying "a thief can steal for a thousand days and guard against thieves for a thousand days".
There were defensive measures. Both General Xu's open actions and Tong Jie'en, Yang Yanzong's and others' private actions had all made careful preventive arrangements. However, no matter how thorough the precautions were, they would be caught off guard if a biological attack such as an epidemic occurred.
I slept until about four o'clock in the morning, when I suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside heading straight for Yang Yanzong's barracks. When they were stopped, Yang Yanzong opened his eyes abruptly!
He frowned and turned over and sat up, but his movements were very gentle and did not wake up Su Ci who was in his arms just now.
Yang Yanzong originally thought that they were coming to find him, as sudden military incidents in the middle of the night were so common, and he had quickly put on his clothes and inner armor. At this time, the man outside had a quick conversation with the guards, and then they ran over together.
“Bang, bang, bang!!”
There was a heavy knock on the door. Yang Yanzong frowned and was about to open the door when someone outside shouted, "Madam, Madam! The master is from the medical camp and is here to see you!!"
"……What's up?"
Su Ci was awakened and rolled out of bed. She was a little dazed and ran out in her pajamas. Halfway through her run, she was wrapped in a big black cloak. Then she reacted and quickly covered her head with her hands and smiled at him.
The two opened the door and saw a familiar face. It was a young medicine boy who usually followed the old man, the battalion judge. His surname was Liang and he was said to be the old man's nephew. This boy was usually very calm, but at this moment, he had dark circles under his eyes and looked anxious: "Quick! Everyone go to the medical camp. There is a suspected disease in the army. The general is summoning all military doctors!!!"
Yang Yanzong and Su Ci's faces changed drastically, but Liang Xiaohuo didn't bother to say anything more and immediately turned around and ran to the next place.
"Don't worry, don't worry," Yang Yanzong said solemnly. He had encountered too many emergencies before, so his on-the-spot reaction was very good. No matter how urgent or chaotic the situation was, he never panicked. He put his arm around Su Ci's shoulders and pulled her back to the house to change clothes. "Put on your clothes first. I'll go with you."
Su Ci calmed herself down, went back to the house and hurriedly put on her coat. She used all the protective clothing and face covering she had prepared, and told Yang Yanzong, Azhao and Akang to do the same.
Rushing to the military medical camp, the lights were already on. Before she got close, Su Ci heard a buzzing sound. She was shocked: "Why are there so many mosquitoes!"
The large ward Geng, Xin and Ren that she was in charge of was closest to the South Gate, so she went straight to this door. She was shocked when she entered. She had only been on duty for most of the day, so how come there were suddenly so many mosquitoes? Even if it's summer, it won't be like this. The weather these days is not abnormal.
As all the lights in the military medical camp were on, the mosquitoes were instantly attracted and flew towards this side with a buzzing sound. As there were several holes in the screen window of Ward G, these mosquitoes quickly broke through the encirclement.
Su Ci took a quick look and said in her heart, "Fuck!" She quickly pulled the scarf covering her face: "Don't get bit by mosquitoes!" She warned Yang Yanzong and others, and immediately shouted to the medical boy and the military doctor on duty: "Quick! Brother Liu, Xiaoyuan Dazeng, drive away the mosquitoes! Close the doors and windows, kill the mosquitoes and burn them, don't touch their body fluids, everyone be careful, don't get bit by mosquitoes! ”
She had already guessed what the disease was, and when she asked Doctor Liu, it was indeed malaria.
She didn't know whether to feel relieved or worried. Fortunately, she could find a way to deal with this.
There was no time to talk about other things now. Su Ci quickly reminded people to kill mosquitoes. All the wounded soldiers who could move on the beds started to move. They put on clothes, covered their faces with sheets, and drove away mosquitoes. Su Ci contributed all the homemade mosquito repellent. Malaria mosquitoes are the main channel of transmission. Cutting off this transmission route is the most important thing.
Doctor Liu rushed out quickly and notified other wards to close doors and windows to kill mosquitoes and prevent bites. Although Su Ci's skills were extraordinary, no one doubted her medical skills after practical observation.
General Xu came over quickly. With a serious face, he asked about the relevant epidemic prevention situation. He immediately issued seven or eight military orders and hurried out.
Everybody started running.
The sudden appearance of the epidemic and the sudden appearance of so many mosquitoes meant that anyone with a discerning eye would know that something was wrong, but now was not the time to deal with it. Everyone, including Tong Jie'en and his colleagues from the Supervisory Office, had no time to pay attention to anything else and worked hard. Soon, the entire Gaobian City, inside and outside, began to move to repel mosquitoes and prevent the epidemic.
Su Ci pushed the knowledge of epidemic prevention onto her deceased "master", but no one had the time to ask her anything now, as everyone was busy and exhausted.
Su Ci was a little worried about the medicine. Many of the patients she was responsible for had finally survived the high fever period of trauma, but they were infected with malaria and were hurriedly carried away. Su Ci moved her lips to ask, but was pulled by Yang Yanzong. She turned around. The man was dressed in black clothes and black armor. His deep eyes reflected two points of light in the dark night. Yang Yanzong whispered, "Don't worry, there is medicine in Gaobian Camp, which is the green pole water stain method you sent earlier."
It is the original recipe for green reed water stains in the "Emergency Prescriptions for the Elbow".
Huang Shilong specially sent someone to inform them and gave them some yellow flower poles.
It is true that Huang Shilong was a rare good official who was sincere in serving the people and was responsible. The old emperor could be said to have a keen eye when he chose him to provide disaster relief. After Huang Shilong received the original prescription and tested it to find that it was effective, he immediately organized people to promote it and made every effort to search for the yellow flower pole.
Malaria in the disaster area once tended to spread, but with his full efforts, it was eventually eradicated before any signs of a major epidemic emerged.
——The latest news on this point was just told to her by Yang Yanzong. When Yang Yanzong brought her back from Shajiaba the day before yesterday, she noticed that some residential villages seemed to be deserted. Yang Yanzong replied to her that Huang Shilong had arranged for them to be temporarily relocated and they would move back soon. The malaria epidemic in the Northeast had almost disappeared, and these vacuum zones used as barriers had also completed their prevention tasks.
In addition to setting up a very advanced vacuum isolation area, Huang Shilong also specially sent someone to inform General Xu, because he was afraid that malaria could not be controlled. If it unfortunately affected the Northern Frontier Army, it would be a big deal. Once the Northern Frontier defense line collapsed, the Northern Rong would march straight in at a moment's notice.
This possibility had to be eliminated from the beginning, so Huang Shilong not only sent people to notify, but also ordered people to send a lot of pickled yellow flower reeds and a complete recipe. Later, General Xu ordered people to find a lot more in case of emergency.
Therefore, there were medicines in Gaobian Camp, and Yang Yanzong knew this.
Su Ci nodded. She understood his concerns. That was good. Let’s wait and see.
…
But obviously the follow-up situation was not good.
This malaria epidemic spread very quickly. Long before the camp could react, this wave of mosquitoes had already infected many people. The soldiers went from barracks to barracks asking if anyone had been bitten by mosquitoes. Some were immediately taken out, but even so, those soldiers who were taken out and who did not even realize they were bitten soon showed signs of fatigue and headaches, followed by chills and high fever.
What's worse is that mosquitoes can fly, and people have to say that sometimes ignorance really holds them back.
There were several riots and conflicts in the civilian area outside Gaobian City.
The many people from outside the Gushan Pass who were evacuated one after another totaled more than 100,000 people. These people were originally very honest. Most of them were arranged to camp or sleep outdoors in the suburbs of Gaobian City because there were not enough tents.
There was no other way. Gaobian was a mountain city built at the mouth of a valley. It was not very big and could not accommodate so many people. Even part of the reinforcements had to be stationed outside the city.
Another more important point is that Gaobian City is an important military location. During critical moments of war, we have to be careful to guard against spies. We have done our best to set aside an area in the city to accommodate the elderly, the weak, pregnant women and children. We cannot cram all of them in in a disorderly manner.
But it was these temporarily relocated people who caused trouble.
They had to repel mosquitoes for no reason, and people came to ask repeatedly every day if there were any mosquito bites. Even though the military tried their best to cover them up, they could no longer do so when patients appeared one after another - there were not enough tents and many people had to sleep outdoors, which resulted in more people being bitten, and the epidemic broke out all of a sudden!
When the experienced old man took a look, he realized it was malaria, an infectious disease! The news spread like wildfire and suddenly no one knew about it. Everyone refused to cooperate and rushed out with their belongings. No one dared to stay. !
But we can't let them in to Gaobian. There are many latent malaria patients here. Once they flood into the inland areas, won't the epidemic spread like wildfire? !
There were several riots and the checkpoints almost failed to stop them. In the end, we had to kill the most violent troublemakers to intimidate them. After that, we tried to comfort and appease them, explaining that as long as they didn't get bitten by mosquitoes, they would be fine - this has been proven to be correct after these few days of practice.
They were so exhausted that even Yang Yanzong led his troops out and only returned two days later.
His eyes were bloodshot and he was obviously tired. Dealing with this kind of thing was really more tiring than charging into traps and killing enemies.
Su Ci was also very tired. There was an extreme shortage of medical staff. At most, she was so tired that she took a nap at her desk. She had never had a good sleep. She covered her mouth, nose, and forehead with a cotton towel, but her beautiful big eyes had already turned a little blue.
But even though the military medical battalion tried so hard, the medicines were not enough and the strength was not enough. The spare original water-stained green bamboo shoots were simply a drop in the bucket and were far from enough. Finally, after Su Ci and Yang Yanzong discussed it, they secretly found General Xu and told him the cold extraction method.
Su Ci said with a stiff face, "I heard that Mr. Huang has a recipe for water-stained green bamboo shoots. I have specially inquired about it. I have some talent in medical theory. I combined it with the manuscript left by my master in the past and experimented with it a few days ago."
She leaned over and whispered, "Don't blame me, old general. I was a little scared after my visit to the palace."
Yang Yanzong waved his sleeves and bowed, saying in a deep voice: "Old General, my wife is a woman, she is not very courageous, and she just wants to live in peace."
Su Ci nodded quickly, indicating that he was right.
General Xu stared at the two of them for nearly three seconds, and finally took the recipe and asked, "Do you have all the ingredients?"
"My wife is a kind-hearted doctor. She has mentioned it several times. We do have some in stock at the farm."
General Xu stared at the recipe for a long while. These raw materials were not difficult to find. With his energy, he could prepare the first batch in three to five days at the shortest.
He stared at Su Ci for a long while, then turned and left without saying a word.
General Xu called the old battalion judge over, and finally took the blame for the matter on Su Ci's behalf without revealing a word to her.
His back was very stiff. If he didn't want to talk, no one could make him speak. Su Ci immediately felt relieved.
But what the couple is facing now is another problem.
This question made Yang Yanzong's eyebrows stand up when he heard it.
The epidemic broke out, and it would be difficult to eradicate the mosquitoes in a short time because they could fly. Moreover, since this was an infectious disease, it was definitely not possible for ordinary soldiers to live together, as they would panic. Therefore, General Xu finally ordered the entire South City to be vacated, with only people entering but not leaving, and built an epidemic isolation zone.
As a military doctor, even if he is just a non-staff member, Su Ci will definitely follow the main force into this infectious isolation area.
She originally thought it was a big deal, because Yang Yanzong had already asked someone to experiment with the 60%-70% ethanol artemisinin cold extraction method, which was indeed feasible. She also knew very well how to prevent the spread of malaria, so as long as she was careful, she didn't think it would be a big problem.
——After all, as a medical student who had taken an oath, the concept that one needs to rush to the front line in some situations has been deeply rooted in her mind through years of education and family atmosphere. Even if she is a novice, she can accept this situation well.
At the same time, she felt very sad when she saw that her patients were in critical condition again due to malaria infection.
It was a rare occasion that Xianyu took the initiative, but he was interrupted directly by Yang Yanzong!
Su Ci had packed her things. If Yang Yanzong hadn't come back, she would have already left. She said something and picked up her bag and was about to turn around, but he grabbed her. Su Ci turned around in surprise, but met Yang Yanzong's deep and sharp eyes.
He said word by word: "The doctor from Suiping has already arrived," the one who was testing the cold extraction method, "He will be here this afternoon, so we don't need you!"
She is not a babysitter for the pharmacist, so he doesn't think she has to go. Can't the medicine be made outside?
Yang Yanzong's eyes were deep, dark as a storm, and his expression was fierce, as if he was about to explode at the next moment - he worked so hard, gave so much and cooperated so much, just to protect his family. Having him was enough, and his wife didn't need to go deep into the infectious epidemic area!
She has done enough!
No matter how safe and easy she said it was, Yang Yanzong was not willing to take the risk. This was an infectious disease that had once killed a large number of people!
Su Ci was stunned for a moment, and thought for a while: "Uh, that's not the case. Artemisinin is a special medicine. It cures the disease immediately. Do you still remember penicillin? ... And, this is a military order!"
This is a military order signed by General Xu himself, and no one in the military medical camp is left out. Yang Yanzong himself is a military commander from a military background, so he knows best that an order is as powerful as a mountain, right?
"Don't be afraid..."
"You're not afraid, but I am!"
Yang Yanzong didn't listen to her at all. He told Akang and Azheng to keep a close eye on her in a deep voice, and then he turned around and left like a whirlwind.
Su Ci was stunned: "..."
"Hey, hey, Yang Yanzong——"
