.Chapter 450 Autumn Harvest and Winter Collection 8

Chen Jinbao sent an invitation, saying that he wanted Li Qinglin to attend the banquet three days later, because Chen Jinbao celebrated his mother, Wang Yinhuā, on that day.

Seeing Chen Jinbao's invitation, Li Qinglin couldn't help but laugh. Wang Yinhuā is only in his twenties this year, and Chen Jinbao is actually preparing to give her an excuse to celebrate her birthday. Isn't this clearly telling herself that she will talk about something tomorrow?

Three days later, Li Qinglin took Ding Goudan and several guards onto the road to Chenjiazhai early in the morning. The autumn was clear and the distant mountains were as bright as dawn. After that bandit suppression, there were definitely no more dog thieves in the jurisdiction of the Ninth Detachment. Li Qinglin rode a horse to the banquet this time, just like an autumn outing.

Of course there was no delay on the journey. At 11 o'clock in the morning, Li Qinglin and his group arrived outside Chenjiazhai.

Ding Goudan had already entered the village in advance to inform Li Qinglin's itinerary. This time, the village of Chenjia Village was opened. Chen Jinbao and a group of family members stood outside the house to welcome the local supreme commander Li Qinglin.

When Chen Jinbao saw Li Qinglin coming, he came to greet him early. Before Li Qinglin could get off the horse, Chen Jinbao clasped his fists and said, "Welcome, Chief Li can go to the banquet in person. This is the greatest honor of our Chenjia Village."

Li Qinglin hadn't seen Chen Jinbao for a long time. When he saw Chen Jinbao this time, he saw him wearing silk clothes, blue cloth shoes, and a huge gold ring on his hands. Although he was not old, his body became obviously fatter and he looked like a nouveau riche.

Li Qinglin jumped off the horse, then punched Chen Jinbao when he was like xiong, and said with a smile: "You rich man Chen, you are so literary now. I think you don't look like a prince when wearing a dragon robe. You should be your Chen Xiaosan."

Chen Jinbao rouxiong said, and smiled and said, "It's still Chief Li who knows me well. Please, please come in quickly." As he said that, he led Li Qinglin to the village.

When he arrived at the Chen family's mansion, the birthday boy Wang Yinhuā was wearing gold and silver, wearing silk and satin in the large living room. Chen Jinbao's mother and Jin Xiaoai were sitting aside. As soon as Li Qinglin entered the room, he bowed and said, "Congratulations to the young birthday boy for being as blessed as the East China Sea and as long as the South Mountain."

Wang Yinhuā blushed and said, "Sir Li will joke."

Jin Xiaoai covered her mouth and smiled, "Sir Li is not kidding, you are really a young birthday today."

Wang Yinhuā is less than 30 years old this year. As Chen Shide's little wife, she is nominally Chen Jinbao's mother. Chen Jinbao is currently the head of Chenjiazhai, but he is young and has not married. The eldest wife has gone to her own son to support her. Chen Jinbao is for socializing in the matters of Chenjiazhai. Of course, the second wife Jin Xiaoai and the third wife Wang Yinhuā are hosted. The second wife Jin Xiaoai's business is now booming and very prosperous. Therefore, her main force in business, Wang Yinhuā has become the head of Chenjiazhai.

The lunch was naturally rich. Li Qinglin hadn't come to Chenjiazhai for a long time, so Chen Jinbao naturally brought out all kinds of delicacies to entertain Li Qinglin.

It is said that it is to hold a birthday party for Wang Yinhuā, but in fact there are only two guests at the banquet today, one is Li Qinglin, and the other is Wang Yinhuā's brother Wang Leshan.

Wang Leshan is now the captain of the first brigade of the People's Security Group. At the banquet, he toasted frequently and kept hinting to Li Qinglin that Liang Xixian was wearing small shoes for himself.

According to the previous division of labor, Liang Xixian was indeed in charge of the People's Security Group. In the past few days, Liang Xixian suddenly sent a deputy captain to Wang Leshan's first brigade, and appointed the deputy captain to be responsible for managing the money and goods of the first brigade. As a local armed force that local gentry paid for funding, Liang Xixian let his people take charge of money and goods, and this trick did grab Wang Leshan's throat.

The militia members are no more than the soldiers of the Ninth Detachment. Their participation in the militia is mainly based on patriotic enthusiasm, but they also value the most practical income. Li Qinglin analyzed that Liang Xixian should be putting pressure on Chenjiazhai when doing this.

Li Qinglin was not good at explaining what Wang Leshan said. The militia was a very important force. They may not be good at fighting, but they played an irreplaceable role in maintaining public order. Li Qinglin repeatedly appeased Wang Leshan and promised that he would handle the matter well.

Wang Leshan was naturally very happy after receiving Li Qinglin's guarantee, so he became more and more attentive in the toast.

Wang Leshan and Chen Jinbao took turns to toasting, and Li Qinglin could no longer resist it. He quickly covered his wine glass and said, "Can't drink anymore, you can't drink anymore. The second phase of the Japanese public security rectification is about to begin. I still have some serious matters to do in the afternoon. Don't delay major issues because of drinking."

Even though Chen Jinbao and Wang Leshan repeatedly persuaded him to drink, Li Qinglin refused to drink too much. In the end, seeing that Li Qinglin had decided, the two had to give up.

After dinner, Chen Jinbao proposed to rest in Chenjiazhuang in the evening. Li Qinglin did not agree. After a while, Li Qinglin proposed to go back and forth to Qinghe.

Although Chen Jinbao repeatedly tried to keep him, Li Qinglin insisted on rushing back. Seeing that Li Qinglin could not be kept, Chen Jinbao personally sent Li Qinglin outside the village.

After leaving the village, Chen Jinbao smiled and said in a slight smile: "Sir Li, there are two great beauties in my family who are like huā. It would be a pity that you won't stay tonight."

Chen Jinbao used to suggest that Li Qinglin take over the two concubines of his old man. At that time, Li Qinglin did not agree with him. Chen Jinbao is now bringing up the old things again, obviously for his own sake. Li Qinglin believes that Chen Jinbao did this, one was to tie Li Qinglin to the Chen Family Village. With Li Qinglin's big Buddha, Liang Xixian would inevitably retreat; secondly, Chen Jinbao was planning for himself. If both NV people were taken away by Li Qinglin, Chen Jinbao could become a veritable leader.

Li Qinglin couldn't help but point his finger at Chen Jinbao and smiled: "Miss San from the Chen family, your son is doing a good job and actually pushes his mother into someone else's arms. Are you not afraid that your father will scold you underground?"

Chen Jinbao laughed and said, "He enjoys a peaceful life underground, and Pepsi doesn't ask. I will arrange for him a way out for him. He should thank me."

The children of this wealthy family can be said to be doing everything they can for their own profits, and Li Qinglin couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

When returning to Qinghe, in addition to normal daily affairs, what Li Qinglin is most concerned about at the moment is intelligence.

The Japanese army's reign is about to begin, and the autumn harvest of local farmers is in full swing. Li Qinglin must protect the autumn harvest. The rapid transformation of ** has made Li Qinglin and the others increasingly difficult to connect with the rear, and the grain ammunition is no longer available. Therefore, only by protecting the autumn harvest can the military rations of the Ninth Detachment be guaranteed next year. If you want to protect the autumn harvest, you must be prepared for war and face the importance of intelligence.

There are three ways for Li Qinglin to have information sources, one is Yan Boling's side, one is Pan Kewei's side, and the other is the intelligence team managed by Han Jizhong. Everyone believes that the war is imminent, so all parties collect intelligence as much as possible. Because it is too nervous, some of the collected information can only be called social situations. For example, the intelligence team provided some situations, which are actually conversations between some famous figures among the people about the current situation.

Han Jizhong was the busiest during this period. He summarized the information obtained from all aspects every day, and then wrote an intelligence analysis to Li Qinglin and others.

Among these information, the most valuable is a report on the internal meeting of the enemy that Pan Ke came to the north of the Henan region. In this meeting, the Japanese commanders in northern Henan clearly stated that the North China Front Army is currently underfunded, and food and other materials will be given priority for front-line combat troops after next year. Such garrison troops in northern Henan region will mainly rely on themselves to collect supplies in the occupied areas. Therefore, the Imperial Army's action to collect "supplies and rice" is now imminent.

Through analysis of various situations, Li Qinglin and the others believed that the Japanese army was mobilizing troops that could be mobilized, and their so-called ruling battle was about to begin. However, their troops were obviously insufficient, so they could only deal with one of the three forces in northern Henan. Who are the Japanese going to attack Sun Dianying's troops? Or the Ninth Detachment? Or the Eighth Route Army advance battalion?

According to Li Qinglin's speculation, the focus of the Japanese offensive is likely to be the Eighth Route Army, because at present, only the Eighth Route Army has the weakest strength. Judging from the insufficient Japanese troops, only attacking the Eighth Route Army is their safest approach.

It is speculated that it is just a wishful thinking. Who will the Japanese attack in the end? Only when the battle begins will there be a result. Therefore, Li Qinglin and the others dare not slacken at all. All the brigades are working hard to prepare for war.

Since the reconstruction of the Ninth Detachment, Chief of Staff Liu Changda has been dedicated to his duties. According to the practice of the General Staff Mén, Liu Changda led the staff to formulate some combat plans, including emergency plans for how to prevent enemy raids. As the local supreme military commander, Li Qinglin browsed these plans one by one.

Liu Changda's staff members all graduated from military academy, and their work skills on the map are of course impeccable, so they are naturally familiar with military theory. Therefore, these plans are made in a complex manner and look good. Of course, Li Qinglin could not make any mistakes. However, Li Qinglin repeatedly emphasized that the staff members must go to the planned combat location for on-site inspections.

Li Qinglin always believed that no matter how good the plan is, it is just a plan. The situation in combat against the enemy changes. If a commander cannot adjust his command in time and in time, but holds on those seemingly perfect plans to command the battle, he will eventually be just a Zhao Kuo who is talking about the war on paper.

Everything is going on in a tense and orderly manner, because there are dedicated people in charge of staff, logistics, intelligence, training, etc., and these people are all dedicated to their work. Li Qinglin has now become the most idle person. Every day, he seems to have nothing to do except urging his subordinates to work hard.

Just when Li Qinglin was feeling bored, Jin Xiaoai suddenly came to Qinghe to visit Li Qinglin.
