Chapter 351 Bringing Medicine on the Road (83/104)
Eugen was not willing to be outdone. The potions transported from Heidelberg were no longer limited to the Po River defense line, but were gradually transported to all other large cities.
Each serving of the medicine is charged for a cost price, but these gold coins are temporarily paid by the Holy See, so the medicine is completely free to be shipped out.
There are also methods of using it for the combination of the drug. Wherever the Black Death occurs, use fire to burn the bodies of the patient who died of the Black Death, and then put the drug into the place where he lived and everyone he had contacted.
In this way, the possibility of secondary transmission of the Black Death disease is completely blocked, and the Black Death bacteria that penetrate into the inland are constantly removed.
This huge disaster resistance lasted for a whole month, mainly based on the Pohe defense line, and various inland areas carried out corresponding clearance operations.
However, it is strange that the countries around the Holy Roman Empire showed no sign of a black death, which allowed several surrounding countries to maintain their complete strength, standing aside and watching the Holy Roman Empire in dire straits and laughing secretly.
The Holy Roman Empire has experienced wars and diseases one after another, and its own strength has been greatly reduced. Several neighboring countries, especially the French Empire, have once again been ready to move.
As time entered late April, Eugen finally breathed a sigh of relief. With the efforts of all the personnel of the disaster resistance army, the disease situation on the Pohe defense line was finally under control.
From Venice to Verona, there have been no new cases in three days, which is definitely a milestone victory.
Dr. Nobel's anti-disease agents played a great role. The Black Death bacteria were killed, the secondary transmission route was completely cut off, and the cases decreased again every day.
The entire city of Verona has been shrouded in white smoke in the past few days, like a city in the clouds. Dr. Nobel's name has also been accompanied by this potion and spread throughout every corner of the Holy Roman Empire.
Of course, Eugen's deeds were once again sung. People say that Eugen was the savior of the empire. He did not know that he had saved His Majesty Emperor Charles VI and also saved ordinary civilians in the empire.
For a time, Eugen's reputation reached its peak, and even surpassed the reputation of several major dukes, approaching the two positions of Charles VI and Pope, who were at the peak of the empire.
Resisting the Black Death is definitely a great victory, and no one can erase this achievement.
At the same time, Eugen also handled some private matters. Irving, who was brought back from Heidelberg, was assigned to Corion by him, and he allowed him to join the Dragon Hidden Army.
These days, Corion himself has also looked for suitable candidates everywhere, asking them to join the Dragon Hidden Army and conduct unified training.
By the time Irving joined, there were only five people in the Dragon Hidden Army, and Irving was the sixth. In order to meet the standards required by Eugen, Corion had extremely high requirements for the Dragon Hidden Army.
In this way, although this team is not large in number, its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated. By this time, it can complete some of the tasks assigned by Eugen.
Seeing that the Dragon Hidden Army was almost formed, Eugen also directly issued the first order. As Eugen's strongest "blade" under Eugen, the first order Eugen gave them was not to kill people, but to find people.
Their mission was to take anti-disease agents and set off from Venice by boat, go deep into the severely affected area of the disease south of the Po River defense line, arrive directly at Sicily, and then search for the whereabouts of Rambo in the local area.
When Rambo was trapped in Sicily due to Eugen's order, he later lost contact with Eugen. It was now a completely raging area of the Black Death. Eugen knew that the chance of Rambo's survival was very slim, but no matter what, he still wanted to confirm it.
Corion is naturally obliged to do this task. Not to mention that this was an order given to him by Eugen, even if the friendship between him and Rambo should be made by him.
So after everything was ready, Corion finally took the Dragon Hidden Army on board and headed towards Sicily, shrouded in the shadow of the Black Death.
On the other hand, Eugen also talked with Father Martin Luther and asked about his current work.
It turned out that Father Luther had already completed the compilation of the Book of Redemption. What he is doing is not writing books, but translating the Bible.
On the entire European continent, only the Holy See has the original Latin version of the Bible, and the Holy See itself has completely monopolized the right to interpret the Bible. Ordinary people have no idea what the content in the Bible is, and they can only know through the Holy See.
It is precisely because of this that the Holy See can use the Bible to control believers. They hold the Bible as if they hold the key to heaven. Anyone who wants to enter heaven after death must pass the guidance of the priest.
If a rich man wants to ascend to heaven after his death, the priest can ask him to donate all his wealth to the Holy See, and then he can gain the right to enter heaven.
Through this method, the Holy See gathered a lot of wealth.
What Father Martin Luther had to do at this moment was to translate the Bible and write a German version of the Bible that everyone could easily understand.
No wonder Modesar warned Eugen for this. Priest Luther's move has completely touched the most sensitive nerve of the Holy See, a behemoth.
Moreover, Father Luther boldly proposed: "Anyone who only believes in God sincerely can ascend to heaven and become God's people without passing through the Holy See or the priest."
Such words are extremely disrespectful to the Holy See at any time, and the Holy See will certainly not allow them to do so.
However, after listening to Father Luther's narration, Eugen just smiled and said, "Haha, don't worry, you do it boldly, I will help you with all the pressure. You will move to my city of Leber in a few days. With me, no one can move you."
To this day, Eugen is qualified to say such a sentence: neither the Pope nor the Emperor Charles VI can do anything against Eugen at this time.
With the achievements accumulated from resisting the Black Death, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as Eugen raises his arms, ordinary people in the entire empire will respond to his call.
Although these people are just a group of mobs after all, there are many people after all. As long as the quantity of anything reaches a certain level, there will be qualitative changes.
What's more, Eugen also has the support of the royal family and most nobles behind it. Even in the Holy See, Modesar prefers Eugen.
After Eugen's assurance, Father Luther was naturally ecstatic. In fact, his Bible has been translated almost completely, and the most important thing next is printing and publishing.
With the help of the latest printing technology, this is not a big problem at all. The key is to provide support.
Just so happened that Eugen was able to give him the support he wanted most.
