Of course, this does not mean that there is not enough fresh water at all. Saving a little and slowly distilling it can also meet daily needs.
But no matter what, it is impossible for Qin He to ignore this issue.
As for other problems on the island, they are just sporadic and small things that are not of concern.
Of course, there is also a good thing, that is, after years of accumulation, Qinhe now has a large number of militiamen with extremely high combat qualities.
In addition, these militiamen have been trained at sea, and they are not timid at all even when facing the officers and soldiers sent by the court.
At the same time, the entire island's defenses have been completely upgraded thanks to the efforts of him and Li Yang.
It cannot be said that the defense is watertight, but at least it would take twice as many troops to attack their island.
Now that it has been almost a month since he landed on the island, Qin He also asked Xie Yuan to cooperate with Li Yang to make statistics on all the people who landed on the island.
Even Qin He couldn't help but be surprised.
There are now 3,500 people on the island.
Among them, the old, weak, women and children accounted for 600 people, and the young and middle-aged people accounted for as many as 2,900.
Among the six hundred people, old, weak, women and children, the vast majority were family members brought by the militiamen.
After statistics, Li Yang divided the 2,900 militiamen into three corps, and set up three captains to oversee the three corps respectively.
Under each regiment, there are ten centurions for ten centurions.
Under the centurion there were ten more captains.
Except for the first batch of boats Qin He and the others built, which could accommodate a hundred people, the others all held more than fifty people.
Today, Qin He has more than a hundred large and small ships in his hands.
Among them, fishing boats account for 60%.
There are only about forty ships that can actually be used in water battles, and only ten of them can accommodate a hundred people.
The rest are only ships that can accommodate more than fifty people.
Each corps is divided into ten large and small ships.
As for the remaining fishing boats, they are freely deployed by the fishermen on the island during weekdays, and are uniformly deployed by the Corps during wartime.
After all, each corps had insufficient ships, so they could only call on fishing boats to participate in the battle together.
In addition to the distribution of ships and personnel, Qin He also asked Li Yang to speed up the cooperative training of everyone in coordinated operations.
After the observation and thinking of Qin He and Li Yang, the coordinated tactics of "one belt and three" evolved.
The tactics were not very clever, it was just a big ship leading three fishing boats.
When fighting in the sea, the three-bow fishing boat can harass enemy ships from three directions and share firepower with the main ship.
This was also done by Qin He based on the actual situation.
After all, the supplies on the island are currently limited, and being able to build a ship cannot be achieved overnight.
Therefore, Qinhe can only make the most reasonable allocation and coordination with limited resources.
As for the island's defense, there is a beacon tower for each post every two miles.
At the same time, there are rocks fifty meters away from the coast, which combined with natural reefs form a solid defense line along the coast.
If you are not familiar with the location of rocks and reefs, large ships can run aground or crash fifty meters away.
It was precisely because it took them a lot of effort to transport these rocks.
So much so that a hill on the island was almost razed to the ground.
Of course, with such a huge amount of work, even now, Qinhe and the others have not been able to install rubble along the entire coast.
The current progress of completion is only 60-70%.
However, even this is enough to deal with the current situation.
Qinghe City may be said to be extremely beautiful on the surface, but in reality the people are miserable.
There is no other reason than the arrival of the imperial envoy.
Accompanying the arrival of the imperial envoy, there were also military officials from the other two provinces.
Qin He's affairs are now considered the first priority in the imperial court after border defense.
Although it cannot be said that arresting Qin He was a great achievement.
But at least if we can capture Qin He, we will get the support of most of the nobles in the capital.
Therefore, whether it is the imperial envoy who came this time or the military headquarters of the other two provinces who assisted in capturing Qin He, this matter must be ranked first.
Faced with such a situation, how could the new governor of Qinghe City dare to neglect these big shots?
But for today's prefect, this is not a good job.
Not only was Qinghe City left in such a mess, but it also needed to receive the people who came down from the court.
Take the imperial envoy as an example. As long as he stays in Qinghe City for one day, he will have to take good care of him.
Not only that, but the same is true for the military headquarters of the other two provinces.
Of course, things are far more troublesome than imagined.
The other two provinces did send people over, but they did not bring any accompanying materials.
Now he not only needs to be responsible for spending this army's supplies, but he also has to serve others.
Of course, the current prefect could not afford so much food to support the army, which eventually became a disaster for the ordinary people in Qinghe City.
The people of Qinghe City, who already didn't have much surplus food, seemed to be even more miserable when facing the resumption of food requisition.
Not only that, even taxes have more than doubled.
Nowadays, the people of Qinghe City can be said to be in dire straits.
On the other hand, the group of people who came to arrest Qin He lived their lives extremely carefree.
Hedi Lao did not change its name at the time and still used the name. After all, He Di Lao's reputation lies there.
Changing the name is not a good thing.
Of course, this is only relative to the current thoughts of the Hedi Lao shopkeeper.
But now, Hedi Lao has to be renamed.
If he refuses, then he is related to Qin He!
At that time, not only will Hedi Lao no longer be a product under his own name, he will even be taken to the prefect's house for questioning.
In Qinghe City today, it can be said that the color of "Qin" has changed.
The Prefect's Mansion, in the study room in the backyard.
The new governor looked at the various documents in his hands and felt dizzy.
The documents in front of him now were like a life-threatening charm.
Especially seeing the huge amount of money above, the new eunuch felt even more miserable.
Originally, he was just a small county magistrate in Qinghe Prefecture. Although he was not as big as the governor, at least he would not face so many problems.
When he just got a piece of paper saying that he wanted to be promoted, he was still excited for a long time.
However, when he learned that the place he came to was Qinghe City, he was immediately dumbfounded.
What is the situation in Qinghe City now, no one in the DPRK knows.
It can be said that coming here is a chore.
However, no matter how unwilling he is, once the paperwork is written, he can only come over and take over the current mess.
Just when the new prefect looked worried and didn't know what to do, the servants' shouts came from outside the study.
"Sir, the Imperial Envoy has already hosted a banquet in the restaurant and is entertaining military officials from the other two provinces! Special people are here, please come over!"
