Rodent control is a traditional technology, which has appeared in human civilization thousands of years ago. The earliest rat medicines can be traced back to the pre-Qin era.

"Shan Hai Jing.According to the Western Mountain Sutra, there is "Bai Shi Yan" on the "Gao Tu Shan", whose name is Juju, which can be poisonous rat. ".

Originally, phytotoxins or mineral toxins were used. In the 19th century, there were a wide variety of rat poisons with hundreds of different kinds.

The prestige of the "Black Death" was too strong. After receiving a note from the Vienna government, European governments expressed their support in a daze.

The messy rodenticides were delivered to Asia Minor peninsula after boat.Various strange usages caused the Austrian army that carried out the rodent control to collapse.

The eyes of the European world have gathered, and various countries have sent medical experts to come to see them on the spot.

Of course, this hot news will always have reporters.After visiting the tragedy of the Russian military camp, all doubts disappeared.

No matter how the Anti-Turkish Alliance plays, it is impossible to take the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers to play a bitter trick, and the name of "Black Death" is indeed counted.

During the centuries of ravages in Europe, the Black Death also broke out in stages and regions and continued into the 18th century.

The most powerful from 1347 to 1353, starting from Sicily, then Italy, Austria, France, England, Central Europe, Northern Europe ...

The following are the Italian plague from 1629 to 1631, the London plague from 1665 to 1666, the Vienna plague from 1679, the Marseille plague from 1720 to 1722, and the Moscow plague from 1771.

Although considered to be the Black Death, there are still differences.Whether the plague virus is mutated or a new virus is still an unsolved mystery.

The plague in the Near East has just begun to exert its power, and it has already erupted with amazing lethality.

...

Since the plague spread in the army, Marshal Ivanov, the supreme commander, has not felt better.Others can make excuses to slip back to China, that is, he can't run.

The military boss is not good enough. In addition to the outstanding military skills, it must also have characters that convince everyone.

The conservative Marshal Ivanov is undoubtedly a qualified soldier.After receiving the news of the outbreak of the plague, he rushed from St. Petersburg non-stop and assumed the responsibility of the supreme commander.

Ivanov asked with concern: "Has the medicine promised by the Austrians been delivered?"

For this batch of drugs, he was out.In St. Petersburg, there was a big quarrel with the government ’s senior officials, the main purpose of which was to prevent the tsar ’s government from overtaking.

Wild goose plucking hair is an old problem of the Tsarist government.

During the period of Alexander II, the bureaucracy could be deterred by the iron-blooded means; by the time of Alexander III, the concept of governance had eased, and the courage of the bureaucrats had become more bold.

Originally, the quantity of medicines was insufficient, and the domestic guys would get a layer of skin, and even fewer would be available.

These medicines are all tight-selling goods on the market, even if some of them are deducted. If you encounter a bold and direct replacement, you will be killed.

Marshal Ivanov never had any confidence in the ethics of domestic bureaucrats.

Lieutenant General Ozgul replied: "I only received 5,318, and the remaining ones will have to wait for the next week as soon as they arrive."

Hearing this answer, Marshal Ivanov felt even more heavy.

There are now more than 50,000 Russian soldiers who have fallen ill, but the medicine is only one-tenth.For whom, for whom, this is a headache.

"Give domestic electricity and let the government find a way to purchase, without drugs is a big deal!"

Now Ivanov's last regret is to return home to participate in the celebration party, so that the best reaction time was wasted.

Theoretically, the war is over. As a victorious country, the Russian army can withdraw at any time. Unfortunately, reality does not allow it.

Not to mention the deal reached between Russia and Austria, the key is that there are so many soldiers infected now. If you go back at this time, wouldn't it have affected the homeland?

Moreover, staying in the Asia Minor Peninsula can also seek help from allies, and once you return to your country, you do n’t have to count on it.

Even the medicines with assistance will be divided up by the domestic powers and powers, and these ordinary soldiers who are really in need are simply not available.

Lieutenant General Ozgul reminded: "Marshal, this is probably very difficult to do. These drugs are produced in the laboratory and have always been in short supply.

Even if the government is willing to pay for it, it can only buy a small portion from the black market at a high price, but it still cannot meet the demand."

...

Ankara, from the withdrawal of Russian troops, the city was completely deserted.

As the birthplace of the epidemic, it has become the top priority of the anti-rodent work. The Austrian airship force has dropped dozens of tons of rodenticide from the sky.

The former Anti-Turkish Alliance Allied Headquarters has now become the epidemic prevention headquarters.Albrecht, the commander-in-chief of the destruction of the Ottoman Empire, became the commander-in-chief of the rodent control.

This is an inevitable result. The soldiers are all on the peninsula, and if the high-ranking officers run away, the military will disperse.

Albrecht: "The current rodent control efficiency is too low. Now that the rats have stored enough food in winter, the activity frequency is not high.

In order to eliminate rats before the end of winter, we must take more active measures.

No one knows how many rat-raising basements were prepared by the Ottomans. The current situation is not suitable for sending soldiers to search the city. I propose to use fuel oil to burn the city directly."

It is impossible to oppose nature.These places are now Austrian territory. In order to prevent the outbreak, Albrecht wants to burn his own city. Everyone will naturally have no opinion.

If it is an uninformed person, it may still be very moved, thinking that Austria has made a great sacrifice.

After all, burning cities are their own industries.Even if it was destroyed in the war, the general framework is still good, and the repair and repair are full of blood and resurrected.

Albrecht was an insider, and it was clear early on that the Vienna government ’s near-east development plan did not include the old city restoration plan.

Either re-select the area to build a new city, or carry out large-scale reconstruction, anyway, in the end it will be completely unrecognizable, and adding a fire will not hurt.

Russian Marshal Ivanov: "Your proposal is very good. The Russian Empire is willing to provide 200,000 tons of fire oil."

British representative Cheryl Aberley: "Britain is willing to provide 300,000 tons of kerosene to eliminate hidden dangers."

...

This is not a matter of one country. For the sake of their own security, it is rare for European countries to dismantle each other this time.Regardless of ability, everyone contributes more or less.

There are a lot of fuels provided by various countries, but those are theoretical values. When it will be in place, it still depends on the ethics of the bureaucrats.

As the host, Austria had to take responsibility.Fortunately, electricity has been popularized in most cities in the country, otherwise the people can't even buy lamp oil.

Since the epidemic prevention headquarters made the decision to burn the source of the fire, Austria has begun to lack oil.

There is no way, Austria does have a lot of oil, but the problem is that it is buried underground, and it is impossible to dig it out in a while.

The capacity provided by several oil fields in Romania alone cannot meet Austria's demand.

From five years ago, until now, Austria is the world's largest oil importing country.

Prime Minister Felix: "The government has done its best, and the fuel that can be raised in the country is sent to the Near East.

The international spot has also been wiped out by us, and even the price of international fuel has increased substantially.

However, this is still a bottleneck. European countries have promised to provide a lot of fuel, but their efficiency is too low.

When their supplies are in place, it is estimated that it is almost summer, and the epidemic in the Near East cannot be delayed."

After hesitating for a while, Franz said slowly: "Then use our strategic reserves to eliminate Ankara first."

If you change the time, Franz will never give up the national strategic reserve oil so easily.

Today, oil is an important energy source in Austria.The internal combustion engine industry that emerged in the second industrial revolution relied solely on oil.

Without sufficient oil supply, Austria's industrial advantage established in the second revolution will directly lose half of it.

But now it is different. With the easing of the international situation, the European continent will not break out for a while.

Especially after the annexation of the Ottoman Empire, Austria ’s strategic security has been guaranteed, and the government can safely develop Middle East oil.

Only need to survive the most difficult period of time, after the oil in the Middle East is extracted, there is no need to worry about insufficient oil.

...

Ankara became the first city to be burned by fire.The billowing smoke rose, and the endless sins turned to ashes in the flames.

This is just the beginning. In areas where large-scale outbreaks have occurred, nearby cities have become the targets of purification.

Throughout 1884, the work of the General Headquarters for Epidemic Prevention was to set fire and put rat poison.By the end of the epidemic, 23 cities had been baptized by fire.
