Lin Xiao sat at the table, and drew a general topographic map of Baisha Island on a blackboard behind him.
"Comrades, I have finally returned home."
There was a commotion in the venue.
"I've sorted out a few important things in the near future, and now I'm arranging, let's listen to what's wrong and missing."
The tumultuous account gradually quieted down, and everyone listened attentively.
"There are a lot of things we have to do next, and the most important ones are the following," Lin Xiao got up and walked to the blackboard, picked up a piece of chalk, pointed to the map on the blackboard, and said.
"First, starting tomorrow, we will immediately find timber to expand the wharf, and immediately level a freight yard, tamp it and cast a concrete floor, and build a few simple grain silos, and we must unload the grain and containers as soon as possible. This work is the responsibility of the baggage battalion, is there a problem? ”
"Nope!" Li Hanzhi, the commander of the baggage battalion, stood up and saluted, and replied loudly.
"Okay." Lin Xiao waved his hand and motioned for Battalion Commander Li to sit down.
"Second, the reconnaissance company immediately dispatched scouts to search and alert in the direction of Qinzhou, Nanning, Chongzuo, and Dongxing to find out the situation of friends and foes."
"It should be noted that since the Qing army has not yet come, the main objects of vigilance are bandits and pirates, the people here are fierce, and there are many mountain bandits, so it is recommended to form a team to act in a squad, at least not less than a group of three. Of course, don't disturb the people. ”
"Yes!" Zhang Chenfeng, commander of the reconnaissance company, stood up and saluted, and replied loudly.
"Thirdly, the battalion headquarters of the first battalion and the first company will be stationed in the fortified town tomorrow morning and set up camp, and send sharp soldiers to the front line of the sand pier and the horizontal ridge to guard the north; The second company was stationed in Qisha Fort and advanced to the front line of Hudieling and Laohudun to ensure the safety of the right flank; The third company was stationed on the first line of Agongdun and Fenghuangtou on the Bailong Peninsula to protect the safety of the left flank. ”
"All companies should pay attention to doing a good job in pacifying the masses and explain to the people that we are a righteous army that opposes the Qing Dynasty and restores the Ming Dynasty, not invaders."
There was a burst of light-hearted laughter in the room.
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" Ding Shuai, the commander of the first battalion, stood up and saluted and replied.
"Fourthly, the companies of the 2nd Battalion immediately built permanent barracks on the vacant land at the foot of Dadudun Mountain, and leveled the playground; The companies of the 3rd Battalion immediately leveled the vacant land on the east bank of Taohua Lake and built living quarters for technicians and sailors; Each company of the fourth battalion cooperated with Cao Gong and Zhou Gong to find suitable vacant land near Taohua Lake to level it and build a factory building. ”
"The wood, bricks and craftsmen needed to build the house will be solved after I and Platoon Commander He go to the town to understand the situation, and the troops will still live in tents for the time being."
"Yes!" The three battalion commanders saluted and replied loudly.
"Fifth, the machine gun company immediately built an improvised road from the storage yard to Dadudun, and sorted out the interior of the Dadudun cave to ensure that it was opened to traffic within a week, and some military supplies were transferred to the cave."
"Yes," replied Duan Zhenghong, commander of the machine gun company.
"Sixth, Lao Chen, the voyage mission of the "Lu Feng" is basically over, please arrange for Yang Ming to lead the interns to immediately set up power supply and provide the necessary power as soon as possible. ”
"Okay." Chen Yiming replied loudly.
The "Lufeng" is an oil tanker, which is unlikely to be converted into a bulk carrier according to the existing technology, and will no longer set sail after docking, and the diesel generator set on board temporarily supplies electricity to the land.
The "Longsheng" ship will be used as an armed freighter as the flagship of the fleet, and Lin Xiao is preparing to add training subjects for "Javelin" missiles to seafarers in military training in the future, and the 10,000-ton modern giant ship equipped with "Javelin" missiles will be an invincible warship at sea in this era.
"Seventh, each squad of the guard platoon is responsible for the security work of the whole island, and at the same time find a way to strengthen the wooden bridge connecting the mainland."
"In addition, everyone should pay attention to diet and excretion hygiene. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and we must work together to solve any difficulties. ”
"Finally, emphasis! For the sake of secrecy, all traversers are not allowed to leave the island without permission! Do you understand? ”
"Yes!" The brothers answered.
"Do you have any questions?" Finally, Lin Xiao asked.
"Captain, what are we going to do?" Lu Hua asked with a pout.
"yes, and me, why don't you have a mission?" Sun Lei echoed.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Lu Gong and Sun Gong also have a task, after the container is landed, please bring some people to count the materials, classify and store them, and then we will discuss how to manage and use them together, okay?"
"Okay, as long as you have something to do, otherwise you'll die of boredom." Sun Lei is also refreshing.
"Let's go back and set up, and the meeting is over!"
……
"Lao Chen, Dr. Yu asked him to go ashore to count the medicines and guide the construction of health facilities, right? We're just this baby, and we're going to have to work hard for him in the future. Lin Xiao finally stopped Chen Yiming and said.
"Okay, I'll talk to him."
"Lao Chen, the unloading work is all under your command."
"Don't see the outside team, everyone came from the same boat, since it's all like this, if you have something to do in the future, you will open your mouth." Lao Chen said with a smile.
"Yes, this is unlucky, everyone face the reality, even if they are in the same boat in the future." The first mate, Lu Xiaolong, echoed with a miserable face, looking forward to returning to China every day, but after returning to China, he came to a desert island, full of barren mountains and wilderness, everything had to start from scratch, Lu Xiaolong was a little disappointed.
……
At night, the general number of the Yixing Dart Bureau.

Although the defense town is a small place, but it is convenient to go to the sea, He Yi set up the general number in his hometown, and opened a branch in Qinzhou Mansion and Annan Haifang, with more than 10 dart divisions under his command, and more than 100 executioners and drivers.
In the inner hall of the backyard, He Yizheng, the head of the dart, is accompanying Mo Yuanwei, a thousand households in Qinzhou, to drink tea and talk.
