Chapter 1760: Serious outbreak
There are indeed hundreds of French laborers on Capri, transferred from Vesuvius. Today, they are all locked up in the military camp on the island. When there is work, they will be monitored to work.
Modest did not mention the rights of these French workers, so he began lobbying Spanish officials on the island, Calis, to demand control of the French workers and quietly revealed his plans.
To tell the truth, Kalis also supports this plan in his heart. Can think of Toleni's end, Kalis did not dare to mess up. So he reported the matter to Gonzalo.
Gonzalo is also worried about the smallpox in Spain. He is worried that after the smallpox baptism, Spain will be suppressed by France. For strategic reasons, Gonzalo decided to support Modest's approach. Indeed, this is the best way to minimize the cost.
However, Gonzalo also knows that this matter is very risky. Toleni has taken a life for this matter, whoever does it is dangerous ...
If you don't do it, the French will happily watch Spain unlucky and take advantage of it. Even the conflict in the Kingdom of Naples will eventually defeat Spain.
After thinking about it, Gonzalo secretly ordered Calis to acquiesce in Modest's approach, but he would never publicly support it, especially not to leave traces in writing ...
Obviously, Gonzalo was going to sacrifice the bad luck of Modest ...
The unlucky Modest didn't know that after Calis suggested that he could act, he sent people to Naples to find smallpox patients to infect hundreds of French workers. And Calis, with a tacit understanding, withdrew the guards beside the labor camp, lest the guards be infected. Later, Modest ’s small sailors who took over the smallpox took over the management of the labor camp ...
Unconsciously, hundreds of French workers worked with a dozen patients who had contracted smallpox but had not yet broken out. Because it is too hot, many people are shirtless and it is easier to spread smallpox virus ...
A few days later, as the smallpox patients were about to get sick, Modest quietly sent them away. Subsequently, this group of French workers was announced by Modest as "pardon" and sent a ship back to France ...
This group of French laborers were very excited to hear that they were pardoned and could be sent home. But they did n’t know that they had deteriorated. Several smallpox patients came up with several days ...
After Modest sent a boat to send them to the south coast of France, the French workers who had not yet gotten sick had rushed back to their villages ...
……
Modest finished this big event, and came back to wait for "reward". But he didn't know that Gonzalo had already got angry with Juan III, and was going to give up this guy.
However, Juan III was also human, and promised the promise of Paul Modeste ’s elder son to become a knight in the future ...
Half a month later, smallpox also broke out in southern France. Gonzalo promptly shifted the responsibility to Modest. And the unlucky Modest, when he learned that Gonzalo wanted to commit suicide by taking poison himself, he was ashamed ...
"The ending shouldn't be like this ... The ending shouldn't be like this ..."
"If you are willing to commit suicide and bear all the responsibilities, your eldest son, Modest, will become a cavalier in the future ... This is not my promise, it is the promise above ..." Gonzalo pointed to heaven , Indicating that it is the above instruction. The meaning is simple, it is the king's promise ...
Obviously, the king was also satisfied with his actions, but he was forced by public pressure and dared not reward him. Therefore, the reward can only be cashed out to his children ...
"Caiqi Knight ..." Modest finally saw light ...
That night, Modest committed suicide by taking poison in a prison on Capri Island, and wrote a "repentance book", taking all the charges ...
……
Gonzalo is an honest man and feels sorry for Modest. So, after Modest's death, he condemned this act apparently, but in the dark, he sent Modest's younger brother Wagara to the captain's school, intending to train as a future captain Distorted family compensation in disguise. After all, Modest ’s eldest son Modest was only 10 years old, and it would be more than ten years before he wanted to grow up and find an excuse to be a knight. For more than ten years, their family has no pillars and it is easy to collapse. Therefore, Gonzalo began to train Modest's brother Wagara. After Modest Jr. becomes an adult, he will cultivate it. Of course, maybe he can't wait that day, but Juan III will definitely be able to wait. After all, Juan III is still young.
However, Juan III did not have the energy to think about anything else at this time, because-smallpox broke out in Spain ...
Because the discovery was not timely, although Spain took some measures, it was still too late. When Gonzalo passed the method of controlling the epidemic from the North Sea State back home, the smallpox epidemic in Spain was out of control ...
Some small coastal villages that were originally infected with smallpox brought the smallpox into the city when residents who were latent with smallpox virus entered the city to purchase living supplies. Then, he was taken by merchants in the city to all parts of the country ...
Although Juan III and Ferdinand II both ordered the ban on the movement of people across the country, it was still a little late. After all, there were no telegrams in this era. Many orders were delivered to the locality several days later. And in this time difference, another businessman went south and north, spreading the smallpox ...
In desperation, Juan III and Ferdinand II can only remedy as much as possible. While cutting off commercial roads in various cities ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ In order to ensure the supply of food, thousands of small-scale Zhuangdings were selected to deliver food to various cities to avoid starvation. As for rural areas, there is no need to transport grain, because rural estates generally have grain storage. Only urban residents need a continuous supply of food.
However, Spain is so big, and there are mountains and criss-crosses. In some mountainous areas, the information is not well communicated, and it is too late to block roads and prohibit the entry of foreign people ... In short, this epidemic has become bigger in Spain ...
……
And France is even more miserable. The French do not know the advanced disease prevention and control measures in the North Sea because of their poor relations with the North Sea. Therefore, when the flower broke out in the southern coastal area of France, the French did not take appropriate measures to control the epidemic in time.
Marseille, a famous coastal city, has become an important disaster area for smallpox because of the passing of businessmen ...
Because there are no restrictions on residents' travel, smallpox patients are rushing all over the city. The French city of Marseille, with a population of more than 20,000 people, has half of the residents infected with smallpox. Then a large number of residents escaped from Marseille to avoid contracting the vicious epidemic of smallpox. But some of those who escaped were also infected with smallpox. As a result, smallpox continues to spread to the surrounding areas ...
In a relatively short period of time, almost all areas along the French Mediterranean coast were affected by the smallpox epidemic. The number of people affected was as high as one million-there is no way, France has a large population ...
