Chapter 741 Killing Rats

"You have to manage it properly when you grow up." He Jinzhao looked at Li Dingguo's two steps and one step: "In case he jumps too much and doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, he has to be raised for two years."

Gao Guiying smiled at the corner of her mouth: "The army is proud of the number of enemies it kills, but it's not because he is your nephew that you obey him, just like my younger brother. Didn't he follow your husband to kill him with a knife and a gun?"

"Hmph." He Jinzhao glanced at Gao Yigong who was kneeling in front of the tombstone in the distance: "You should teach him a lesson."

Gao Guiying also sat on the side: "That's right, under the command of the commander-in-chief, there are no longer hundreds of thousands of people seeking to survive, but a population of 10 at every turn."

In the early Ming Dynasty, Shanxi Province was immigrated to various parts of the country several times, because during the Hongwu period, the Central Plains were full of remains and hills, and there were few residents.

Although Shanxi once again experienced wars, natural disasters, Mongolian invasions and plundering of the population, and people voluntarily migrating to Mongolia to survive, resulting in a large decrease in population.

However, He Jinchao's census is for everyone, and he released a large number of domestic slaves, low-class people, etc., and registered them in the book, which is by no means the population number on the yellow book of the Ming Dynasty.

Every household had to be registered, trying not to miss a single person, and took the initiative to accept tens of thousands of refugees, and even made a list of those who had become official hammer bandits.

Population growth skyrocketed under He Jinzhao.

He Jinzhao looked around at Gao Guiying: "There are so many people following me to rebel, if I take one wrong step, many people will be killed by the enemy, wives and children will be separated, and families will be destroyed. It is very difficult for me to gather strength again."

"I know your difficulties." Gao Guiying leaned in his arms, looking at the dispersed crowd:
"But Husband, don't forget, these people who follow you are your greatest confidence!"

"Well, that's why I can't let them think it's a dream!" He Jinzhao looked at the military family who was helping the old and the young back: "I have to plan carefully, what should I do next."

Hequ is not far from Biantouguan.

On the second day, He Jinzhao rode a fast horse and arrived at Piantou Pass.

The guard Tian Hu came out of the customs and bowed to salute: "Marshal."

He Jinzhao helped him up with a smile: "Tian Hu, after a long time, you have become stronger and stronger."

"The last general sleeps day and night, and always obeys the commander's call."

Tian Hu also wanted to make new achievements, how could he get into He Jinzhao's eyes just by surprising his old boss.

Moreover, most of the right-wing Mongols surrendered to He Jinchao. Even if there were Mongolian tribes farther away who wanted to come to the side, he didn't need to do it at all.

There's no need for him, Tian Hu, to do anything. Seeing that He Jinzhao has unified the entire Shanxi Province, if he doesn't perform well, will he still have a chance to make contributions in the future?
"Okay." He Jinzhao gave him a hammer and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, I killed the Jurchen **** Sanbeile Mangurtai. If Huang Taiji doesn't move troops this year, he will do so next year. Even if he can't fight me, he will fight the Chahar tribe. Then you will guard the Great Wall. Are you afraid that you won't win the war?"

Hearing this, Tian Hu laughed a few times, and hurriedly asked He Jinzhao to enter the customs for inspection.

Wait until everyone enters the partial pass.

He Jinzhao sat on the main seat and asked, "I heard that the plague has been prevalent in the grasslands recently, and has it not been brought under control?"

Tian Hu nodded again and again: "Commander, Staff Officer Yang has already ordered the exchange point to be closed, and the wool factory outside my head is also temporarily not accepting wool, prohibiting people from moving around, and sending many medical teams to investigate everywhere, and there is a lot of lime expenditure. "

Regarding the plague on the grassland, He Jinzhao had no good solution. He could only prohibit the flow of people, sprinkle more lime, and send apprentices from the field hospital to treat the Mongolians and tell them to stay in the tents.

Otherwise, once the Mongols approach the Great Wall and infect the interior, the hammer bandits will suffer even greater losses.

"By the way, send an order to them to kill the rats, and burn the corpses with fire." He Jinzhao thought for a while and said, "Rats will run around after stealing food, but it must not be the plague."

He vaguely remembered that it was said that before Li Zicheng broke through the city of Beijing, there was a year of plague in the capital, which caused the death of at least one-fifth of the population in the capital. It can be said that every four or five people had to die.

It can be called a super plague. Not only did soldiers, hawkers, and hired workers die in large numbers, but even the city of Beijing was screaming (this chapter is not over!)

I can't find them.

In short, this disease cannot be controlled by the current society.

Could it be that the plague began to spread from Shanxi in the late Ming Dynasty and gradually spread to North China and other places?

It is said that the patient does not eat, is dizzy and sits hot, and vomits bad meat like watermelon meat.

Before coming to Biantouguan, he wanted to lead the cavalry to Yansui to see how his cheap old father-in-law was doing.

But now he had no intention of running to the grassland, He Jinzhao couldn't sit still all of a sudden, his face was full of anxiety.

"Marshal, I will order to go down and kill the rats immediately."

Tian Hu solemnly agreed, if it was the plague, then no one would be able to escape.

It is not because you are separated by the Great Wall that mice will not run into the Great Wall.

Not even the person collecting the corpse will get this disease, because if you get infected, you will die.

He Jinzhao immediately called Yang Yuxiu to Piantouguan, and asked him to immediately fill out the notice and carry out a rodent extermination campaign throughout Shanxi. No matter what, the plague could not be allowed to destroy the good situation he had just dominated Shanxi.

Yang Yuxiu listened to He Jinchao's arrangement, and immediately agreed. Even though people had more food in their homes, they encouraged people to keep dogs and cats to hunt and kill mice.

If the Mongols who contracted the disease outside the Great Wall were all spread by rats, then the designation of Shanxi would be affected.

After all, his lord is the Heavenly Khan of the Mongols, and those Mongols who are desperate may come to ask for help with their sick bodies.

He Jinzhao also sent people to build separate rooms outside the Great Wall to isolate the returning field hospital apprentices. No matter what, they will be isolated outside the Great Wall for a month.

At the same time, he also immediately built ten bathhouses outside the Great Wall, lest the Mongols who hadn't bathed for many years and kept wandering blind with bacteria would rather die of illness than take a bath. There are many people there.

There are still ignorant people until now, let alone before.

He Jinzhao could only let his subordinates wear double-layer masks, and ordered in the name of Tian Khan that after the epidemic has not passed, anyone who dares to approach the Great Wall within a hundred miles without taking a bath will be killed.

As soon as the order came out, Su De and others immediately took the Mongolian cavalry to patrol the defense line of the Great Wall of Shanxi, strictly guarding against the deadly defense, and must not let the plague come to Shanxi.

Rodent eradication campaigns have been carried out throughout Shanxi from the county town to the countryside. Once a rat is found, it must be slaughtered.

Otherwise, in the famine years before, they would have to dig out the rat hole and eat the food it stole, even the rat meat would have to be cooked.

The people in Shanxi Province never expected that the first order they received from Marshal He was not to prepare for the expedition, but to let them all exterminate rats and promote hygiene campaigns.
