Chapitre 120: Master of Egypt and the Middle East

In the following weeks, Napoleon would have to deal with a new enemy, that is disease. Bubonic plague plagued the locals and military personnel alike, spreading through the crowded and unsanitary conditions of the besieged city. Napoleon knew that if left unchecked, the disease could decimate his forces and jeopardize the entire campaign.

He immediately ordered the establishment of a field hospital and appointed a team of skilled doctors and nurses to treat the afflicted. The sick and injured were isolated to prevent the further spread of the plague, and strict sanitation measures were enforced to maintain cleanliness and hygiene.

Napoleon himself took a hands-on approach, visiting the hospital regularly and providing guidance to the medical staff. He made sure that the wounded soldiers received the best care possible, even going as far as personally tending to their needs and offering words of encouragement.
