It is actually very important for soldiers to study.
In ancient times, civil and military officials did not divide their paths. The so-called "going to generals and becoming prime ministers" was basically all senior officers who were scholars, first aristocrats and then bureaucrats. The upper classes of these ruling classes were basically condensed into a whole, and there was no specific distinction between civil and military affairs. More contradictions were personal or family, rather than between civil and military affairs.
In times of trouble, there are naturally grassroots rising, and these grassroots are mostly illiterate. Just like the Three Kingdoms, or the more chaotic Five Barbarians, a large number of grassroots who do not recognize words became the main force in the army, which led to the increasing proportion of middle and high-level generals among the warriors in times of trouble.
On the other hand, when the old interest class was impacted, they would naturally try their best to attack, slander, ridicule, and even slander the emerging meritorious class, that is, these rising martial artists and nobles, which led to the children of the gentry increasingly despise martial artists and even despise martial artists.
The Song Dynasty emphasized culture over military affairs, which was certainly due to the domineering, cruel and even completely destroying human nature during the Five Dynasties. However, on the other hand, many military men and even senior generals were illiterate and semi-illiterate, and could not communicate effectively. The three views of both sides were completely incompatible, which led to the fact that the children of the gentry overcorrected military power and military people in the end. This was also an important reason that cannot be ignored.
Since the Tang Dynasty, there has been a trend of splitting civil and military affairs. By the Song Dynasty, it was basically in a state of complete division. Generals were no longer able to become prime ministers. Military people became an alien in the ruling class. The two civil and military classes hated each other in different ways, and became farther and farther.
When military people are suppressed politically and discriminated in culture, they will naturally have complaints and even hatred in their hearts. Once a national crisis occurs, these originally suppressed and discriminated will become the reason why some military people are greedy for money and fear of death. Many Chinese literati like to generalize from a partial perspective, and one thing is to reject everything, so they despise military people more and no longer believe in military people. Therefore, various garbage incidents such as civil officials, eunuchs, even soldiers, and laymen, and insiders are emerging one after another.
There are all kinds of life, some people who like to read, some who don’t like to read, some who read as novels, and some who read as historical books. This is normal.
Therefore, we cannot ask everyone to be both literary and military, but no one should discriminate against anyone.
This is done well in the Cavalry Army.
Those who know how to study have more opportunities, but those who know how to study do not discriminate against those who don’t know how to study, because in the army, sometimes the fist is still the hard truth.
It has to be said that the military academy of General Cavalry has broadened the vision of the warriors and made their future path wider.
Just like this emergency, the soldiers were not in chaos, and the people were not in chaos. Seeing that the soldiers were still on duty calmly, there were no panic buying or reselling on the market, the people who thought that the gods and ghosts gradually became topics of conversation after dinner, and did not affect much of the daily life in Chengdu.
Powerful soldiers will always be the decisive needle for ordinary people.
No matter how big the wave is, as long as the Dinghai Shen Needle does not fall, it will churn for a while and then pass.
Naturally, Xu Shu couldn't be satisfied with the fact that Zuojin of Chengdu was not disturbed by this news. He also had to find a way to completely solve this problem, at least trying to solve some of it.
Everyone will encounter various problems. The key is how to do it when encountering problems. Some people like to make excuses, and then spread their hands together, and they can push all the blame to ghosts and gods, indicating that the mountain god is like and the forest ghost is like. We have no choice but to do anything. Let’s go and don’t look for me when we go to others...
Xu Shu was not like this.
As the highest civil affairs leader in Sichuan and Sichuan, he cannot easily say the three words "no way" in any case. He has to come up with a solution even if he has no way, otherwise he will be a leader?
Therefore, after Xu Shu stabilized the situation around Chengdu, he immediately convened relevant personnel to study and discuss the problems that occurred at the construction site.
Ma Heng of Wensi dealt with those spies who tried to disrupt the situation, and imitated the Sichuan Medical Center established by Chang'an Baijian to diagnose and study these patients.
Not to mention, there are really some research on malaria in Sichuan and Sichuan...
In fact, as early as the pre-Qin period, the ancients had discovered this malaria and began to find ways to deal with it.
During the Zhou Dynasty, there were special people in the state and government officials who studied malaria.
This is not surprising. After all, there were obviously much more vegetation in ancient times than that in today's Han Dynasty. The warm climate and the large number of vegetation also resulted in more mosquitoes, and the diseases caused by mosquito bites were also more common.
In the earliest medical classics in China, "Huangdi Neijing·Su Wen", the diseases classified as "malaria" include more than 10 kinds of diseases including wind malaria, warm malaria, cold malaria...
This book is definitely not written by Huangdi, but it also proves that in the Qin and Han dynasties, or even earlier, some people in China were specializing in this area of ​​diseases.
Malaria in China was first prevalent from the southern region, and people from the pre-Qin Dynasty had roughly understood the incidence of malaria. "The Literature of Zhou·Tianguan" records: "There are malaria and cold diseases in autumn." And this is an instruction issued to the "disease doctor", which requires the "disease doctor" to master the epidemic rules of seasonal epidemics and carry out targeted prevention and treatment.
"Disease Doctor" is one of the four departments of doctors in the Zhou Dynasty, namely food, disease, ulcer, and beast. It is similar to the internal medicine doctors in later generations, but not all of them are. They are equipped with eight sergeants, and their responsibilities are "to nourish the diseases of all people. Anyone with diseases of the people should divide and treat them."
Although later, with the changes in climate, human desolation, etc., the Central Plains of China gradually changed from dense forests to farmland, and mosquitoes like warm and humid gradually moved south, there are still a large number of these pathogenic mosquitoes in the Sichuan and Sichuan areas, in Jiaozhi, South Central.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The black miasma mentioned by many people in Nanzhong is actually such a large-scale mosquito, floating like black smoke, and people and animals will die when touched...
If you have such a disease, of course there are doctors who specialize in this disease.
Of course, there are also good doctors in Sichuan and Sichuan.
When people in later generations talked about famous doctors in the Han Dynasty, they were either Hua Tuo or Zhang Zhongjing. However, in fact, there were inheritances of famous doctors in Sichuan and Wuzhong.
Most of the current doctors in Sichuan and Sichuan are descendants of the famous doctor Guo Yu.
Guo Yu is from Guanghan. His master is Cheng Gao, and then Cheng Gao's master is a hidden doctor called "Fu Weng". Therefore, the medical skills of this school can be said to be basically derived from the inheritance of the "Fu Weng".
The characteristic of this faction is that it is harsh in the drug and harsh in the acupuncture. It is precisely this characteristic that makes this faction not very powerful in the treatment of dignitaries and nobles.
It's very simple, because for ordinary people, they basically don't seek medical treatment unless they have to. Once they seek medical treatment, they will reach a very serious level. Therefore, the power of the "Fu Weng" series is revealed. One medicine saves disaster and one injection kills life, which are all basic operations.
If Hua Tuo is the sharp blade of Jinchuangke, then the doctors from Sichuan and Shu are the pioneers of the emergency department.
Although these "Fu Weng" doctors sometimes act ruthlessly and are saved by people, they often inevitably have some sequelae. However, for ordinary people, these sequelae are not a big deal. After all, as long as they can get their lives back, they are already grateful. It is absolutely impossible for people in the future to rescue them, and they will use a knife to chop the doctor when they recover...
But the children of the gentry are different, they really go to kill the doctor.
For the nobles of the gentry, these sequelae are uncomfortable. If they are uncomfortable, they will feel that the doctor is not good. If they think they are not good, they will inevitably want to work for this doctor. Even if they are cured, but the sequelae are uncomfortable, they will have to cut the doctor for more than a dozen times...
So much so that doctors in this school gradually left the court and went to the countryside.
After all, even Iron Man can't withstand the patient's kitchen knife.
One pecks and one drinks, because they are far away from the court and are close to the forests. In Sichuan and Sichuan, the experience of dealing with this type of disease is more experienced than other regions...
In the lobby of Chengdu, most of the doctors who sat around were middle-aged and a few were old.
The rice in traditional Chinese medicine is all about experience.
Only by hard work and the precipitation of time can we achieve a good Chinese medicine.
"The beginning of malaria occurs, first it starts with hair, stretches and becomes uneven, and the chin is thrust, and the waist and spine are both painful. If the cold goes away, the inside and outside will be hot, and the headache will be broken..." A doctor frowned and said, "Now there are patients, most of them are in this condition, which can be determined to be this malaria..."
"However, according to the old man's diagnosis, there are other symptoms..." Another doctor also said, "The occurrence of malaria is caused by the imbalance between yin and yang. As the saying goes, the qi is deep and thinner than yin. The yang energy is emitted alone. Yin evil is exposed inside. Yin and yang cannot be found. Therefore, it is done in the intermittent day after day... But now when looking at the sky, spring and summer move forward, and yin and yang are not chaotic. How can the yang energy be emitted alone? Is it really strange? "
"If there is no spring or summer, it is probably not a plague..." Another doctor said, "If this disease is based on my opinion, it should be miasma. In the south center, there has been no people for a long time. The five poisons are rampant in the mountains and forests, and peaches and apricots rot in the valley, so there is miasma. People and animals are infected with it and they all fall down..."
"If it's miasma, it's probably difficult to deal with..."
"In the past, General Fu Bo fought south and the military officials suffered miasma epidemics. The fourteenth and five days of the dead showed that the poison of miasma..."
Then gradually more doctors joined in and finally came to the conclusion that what Xu Huang encountered at the construction site was not an ordinary plague, but a miasma.
Ancient people often attributed many unexplained diseases to miasma. Miasma is a comprehensive list of many difficult and urgent diseases in ancient times, which may include malaria, dysentery, beriberi, sand lice, poisoning, laryngeal disease, hemorrhagic fever, jaundice, etc.
So in general, these doctors are not wrong. They are just not very accurate.
Xu Shu didn't understand these, so he asked: "Since there is miasma, how should we treat it?"
The doctors looked at each other, and then the oldest doctor said: "Miscosis often takes place in March and April, and the heat and poison rise. If you get autumn and winter, it will naturally be fine."
This answer is not wrong.
It’s a pity that waiting for the weather to pass and the temperature drops is not the answer Xu Shu wants.
Xu Shu and Xu Huang's previous discussion was that if it was uncontrollable or cured, then they could only wait for the colder autumn and winter before starting work. But the problem was that this was basically equivalent to three or four months being wasted.
These labor, whether they are working or not, have to eat. At most, they only eat less. It is impossible to say that they do not need food and grass consumption at all when they are not working...
There are also some craftsmen who are recruiting, so the longer the recruiting time, the greater the impact on the local area. In three or four months, it cannot be said that they are letting these craftsmen go back. Everyone knows the roads of Sichuan and Shu. Once they go back and forth, they may have to go back before they get home.
During the war in Zhuge Nan's history, he encountered miasma and delayed for two months. Historical records were "From the Lu in May". It seems that in May, Lu River can leave, and there is no miasma. In fact, it is probably a misunderstanding.
At that time, the central central China was in crisis, and Zhuge Liang's army gathered, and he also wanted to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. He did not do anything. After dozens of days, if he did not take action, not only the situation in the central China worsened, but also just talked about how much food and grass was consumed? When it was autumn, I am afraid that even if Zhuge Liang sent troops, there would be no good results.
Besides, are there no mosquitoes in May? Not there are any other ones. And ordinary poisoning, whether it is mineral or biological poison, does not have the nature of infectiousness without contact, so most of the ones Zhuge Liang encountered at that time, was malaria.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! May's march was actually considered a matter of being forced by Zhuge's situation at that time.
Now for Xu Shu, although it is not a waste of life, it is impossible to wait for a few months if he does nothing. Therefore, he said to these doctors: "As long as he has a disease, he should be treated. If he cannot be treated, what is the use of the doctor?"
This is a bit serious, but it is not completely unreasonable. If a doctor only collects money but cannot cure the disease, then is there any meaning of existence? Isn’t it similar to a liar?
As soon as Xu Shu said this, the doctors looked at each other, and then discussed it again. The older doctor bowed and said, "But please give me instructions..."
Xu Shu said: "One is to treat it. This is an emergency epidemic. After the disease occurs, it is sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and it is extremely painful. It is a sudden death. How should it be cured and saved its life. The second is medicine. The mountains and forests are complex and the valleys are deep. Whether it is an epidemic or a miasma, the army is moving, how can it stop this? You should prepare medicine to prevent this disease. "
Xu Shu looked at the doctors and said that if he did well, he would calculate it based on military merit.
The doctors were suddenly excited.
After all, everyone knows that under the cavalry, military merits are quite popular, and this is not something Xu Shu fooled people. There is Jin Chuangke in the army. For ordinary soldiers, killing people to obtain military merits, while for Jin Chuangke's doctors, saving people to obtain military merits...
With such motivation, these doctors have successively taken out the means hidden in their homes.
"There is a method below that can be passed on to "Fu Weng", which is called the method of pricking the acupoints of gold. The malaria pulse is stringy, and the strings are more heated, and the strings are slow and cold. The strings are slightly tight and the lower part are less cold. The strings are slightly tight and the strings are slow and warm, and the strings are tight and can cause sweating. "A doctor said, "If the back pain is severe, the cold starts from the back, and the cold starts to be hot and then heat, and the heat stops sweating. It is difficult to stop, then the bleeding in the prickly... Also, if the cold first is cold, it will be hot and the cold lasts for a long time, the heat will remove sweating. I like to see the sun, moon, and the fire is fast, and then the foot Yangming tars..."
That's right, acupuncture.
Perhaps in later generations, some people will think that there is anything difficult to treat malaria, isn’t it quinine? What you know more is that you know the cinchona tree, and then know more, you will clamor for the words of Artemisia annua, Artemisia annua, or the like, or it may indicate that in ancient times, there were records of using Artemisia annua to treat malaria.
However, in fact, no matter how long it took to test it, how many people's efforts were, and then they were occupied by people...
The Jinchona tree, a kind Indian woman dedicated to the colonists, who then no longer feared malaria, and then returned smallpox and massacre to the Indians.
Traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions are often empirical prescriptions. Just like the golden needle method proposed by the old doctors, it is also the experience of malaria patients with years of malaria in Sichuan and Sichuan, and then it is summarized bit by bit. This acupuncture method and this kind of study on meridians have not been fully understood even in later generations.
Of course, among these prescriptions or treatment plans, some of them don’t sound so reliable.
For example, some doctors claimed that "Huanglong Decoction" can be used to treat malaria of the mountain, which is called "Huanglong Decoction".
Is it yellow among people...
Ahem, forget it.
Some people also said that they would catch a mountain rat in a place where the mountain miasma broke out, and then smash it to death, squeeze out blood juice to take it. The effect of curing fever will be better. They also specifically stated that "the rat and the five scalp are pounded. If the juice is less water and squeezed, it will not be difficult to take it. It is often used to test it immediately."
This is called "Blood Rat Drink"...
If you think that "Huanglong Decoction" and "Blood Mouse Drink" can make some sense, then using "skull" as a medicinal material to treat malaria is somewhat unacceptable...
Of course, it is not that these doctors are taking human lives when they prescribe these prescriptions, but that they once, or their masters, used this prescription to save people and then left behind this prescription.
It can be said that in traditional Chinese medicine, even the most bizarre prescriptions are saved, but as for some substance in the prescription to eliminate bacteria, stimulate and mobilize the body's defense function, or balance the electrolytes inside the human body, etc., which ultimately leads to eliminating the disease...
No one knows it.
Xu Shu didn't know either.
Xu Shu was unable to determine what prescription was or whether the real acupuncture method would be more effective, so he decided to do something, which was to ask these doctors to divide the number of cases and each treated patients with malaria according to their own plans, so as to determine what method and which prescription was the most practical.
After all, it’s a mule or a horse, you’ll know it after walking around.
