In fact, the Japanese and puppets never relaxed their vigilance against Sangyu Town around them. Since the Third Brigade publicly showed its banner here, they organized personnel to come here to reconnaise. Later, because the militias hosted by Han Jizhong who used local gentry to set up checkpoints and inspect, these local militias were familiar with the local situation. All suspicious elements mixed in the caravans who had unknown purposes and unknown identities were rejected. In addition, the power of the Third Brigade was not very large. The Japanese and puppets gradually relaxed their vigilance, and the number of personnel sent there gradually decreased until they were cut off.

But recently, Sangyu Town has suddenly flourished, which has attracted the attention of Kondo, a Japanese consultant of the First Army stationed in Mizuma, and Sasaki, the head of the secret service.

With the efforts of many parties, Kondo's detective team was finally built. Some of these detective team members were selected from the puppet army, and some absorbed local gangsters. In short, they were all a group of hardcore traitors.

In order to piece together this detective team, Kondo could be said to have put a lot of effort into it. According to the general situation, the personnel of this detective team should carry out some necessary training, but Sasaki couldn't wait. He immediately ordered them to carry out the mission when he heard that the detective team had been established.

In fact, this mission is not new. The most important thing is to find out the whereabouts of the machine gun team sent by the Japanese army to the old bandit troops of Motianling, that is, the three Japanese soldiers.

The bandits in Motianling and other places were wiped out, and Sasaki had learned this information. Li Qinglin beheaded the extremely evil bandit leader, and local gentry gathered the captured bandit followers to work and reform. Sasaki did not know about these situations. The devils had no source of information, so Sasaki certainly did not know the whereabouts of the three-man Japanese team.

These three soldiers are not personnel of the secret service, but Sasaki borrowed from the security forces. These three people have not returned yet. The security forces repeatedly urged Sasaki to return the people to the establishment, but Sasaki didn't even have the whereabouts of the three people, so how could they hand over the people? Therefore, for Sasaki, the current thing to be in trouble is to find and take back these three Japanese soldiers.

Under Sasaki's urging, Kondo had to send a newly formed detective team to search for the whereabouts of the three Japanese soldiers. The last place where the Sanmin Japanese army appeared was in Motianling. Of course, they went deep into the Motianling area. The traitors of the detective team were divided into two groups, one group had two spies, who disguised as merchants and mixed in the caravan, trying to get away with them, while the other group disguised as farmers picking up manure to conduct reconnaissance on foot.

The two disguised as merchants were soon discovered by the militia group. The two of them were caught and the German man in their arms were also confiscated. However, the two spies disguised as manure pickers really got in. They took the dung rake in their hands and carried the dung basket on their shoulders and wandered around Sangyu Town. They finally ran to Motianling for a walk.

Because all the arrested bandits were still working forcibly, the Japanese prisoners were also under close supervision in Motianling. They found nothing about the Japanese soldiers. Of course, they did not dare to go to Motianling, and finally they returned to the water treatment with a manure basket on their back.

Sasaki and Kondo were both very angry about the arrest of the two spies and the remaining two spies returning from nothing, but another information brought back by the two spies aroused their great interest, that is, Sangyu Town is currently very prosperous and lively, and there is currently only one squadron of Chinese infantry in Sangyu Town, and most of the cavalry in the squadron usually has only some of the troops stationed.

Since Sasaki and Kondo were sent to clean up the end of the Eight Seven Uprising, although they were busy, they did not achieve any outstanding results, which made the two very anxious. The prosperous Sangyu Town was like a large piece of fat in front of them, and there were only one Chinese soldiers with more than one squadron stationed. The two thought that this was an excellent opportunity.

Only the First Division of the First Army left by Li Fuhe still existed, and only 3,000 puppet troops came to visit. In order to watch these puppet troops, the Japanese army left an infantry squadron and a security squad in Mid-Governance. The infantry squadron can only be used by the infantry brigade stationed in Wan'an, but the command of the security squadron is in the hands of Sasaki.

According to the general national army company-level personnel and firepower configuration, Sasaki believes that it is more than enough to deal with them with one security team and one puppet army company. The two finally agreed that Sasaki mobilized the security team, Kondo mobilized a puppet army company, and the Japanese and puppets formed a siege force together, and they would choose the appropriate time to carry out a raid on Sangyu Town. The specific operation time will be jointly agreed by Sasaki, Kondo and Matsui, the captain of the security team.

Li Qinglin was very upset during this period. He was not worried about food and salary issues, but about Chenjiazhai.

After the winter, Chen Shide's physical condition became worse and worse, sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious, and was completely lingering on Lao Shen Tang. Chen Shide's illness made Chen Jinbao anxious because Chen Shide was not sure who should decide the family in the end. If the general clan rules were followed, most of the property of this family would be inherited by Chen Shide's eldest son, that is, the eldest wife's son. If things really reached this point, Chen Jinbao would still be empty-handed.

In order to capture the power of the family as soon as possible, Chen Jinbao repeatedly asked Li Qinglin to help him come forward to persuade Chen Shide.

Li Qinglin didn't want to care about such bullshits in wealthy families, but he couldn't resist Chen Jinbao's repeated begging. In addition, the third wife, the fourth wife also sent Wang Leshan to invite Li Qinglin to come forward to persuade Chen Shide. Li Qinglin finally refused, so he had to go to Chenjiazhai.

After Li Qinglin arrived in Chenjiazhai, he found that things were worse than expected, because Chen Jinbao and the others could not provide any evidence that Mu Jinshan was bound by bandits. The eldest wife and Mu Jinshan recently began to make trouble again. Even if Chen Jinbao and the others wanted to be the leader, they were still subject to considerable resistance.

After Li Qinglin arrived, he defeated Mu Jinshan in just one sentence: "Butler Mu, you must prepare to invite me to drink. The tilt of your head has been controlled by my people. I heard that he will be caught soon. You will invite me to have a celebration wine at that time."

The tilt is a trotting errand with an old pout, and he is also the one who he trusts the most. Li Qinglin judged that there was definitely an insider between Mu Jinshan and the tilt whisper, and this insider must be a tilt. The tilt is a very clever person. He ran away when Li Qinglin's team attacked Motianling. Li Qinglin still doesn't know where he is hiding.

However, Li Qinglin's words still convinced Mu Jinshan. He believed that Li Qinglin's team could even fight Motianling. If he caught a small bandit and tilted his head, wouldn't that be easy to capture?

Seeing Mu Jinshan like a deflated ball, Li Qinglin smiled and followed Chen Jinbao and the others into the house where Chen Shide lived.

Chen Shide just fell into a coma again, and the second wife wiped her tears and said, "Sir Li, you are here. The master kept muttering about you and was looking forward to you."

Li Qinglin had to "Ah, ah" and called a few hahaha and turned his words away, and said in his heart, "I, Li Qinglin, and you, Chen Shide, are not close to you, you are about to die, but you are thinking about what I am doing."

It was not until the evening that Chen Shide woke up from his coma. After taking a few sips of ginseng soup and taking a few sips of smoke, Chen Shide was greatly inspired. He asked someone to invite Li Qinglin and a few wives in.

Chen Shide under the light was so thin that his skin was covered with bones, but his face was rosy and his speech was clear. Li Qinglin instinctively felt that Chen Shide might be a return to his mind.

Chen Shide spoke and even made a record. He first thanked Li Qinglin for his arrival and said that Li Qinglin was the highest commander in the local area and was naturally the best intermediary. Chen Shide also said that Li Qinglin, as a major officer of the National Army, would definitely uphold justice and be impartial.

Only then did Li Qinglin realize that Chen Shide was indeed not simple. Chen Shide put Li Qinglin in the middle with just a few simple words, and casually gave Li Qinglin a high hat to keep Li Qinglin neutral among all parties.

Chen Shide then announced the solution to the family business behind him. He first said to the eldest wife: "You have been with me for the rest of your life, and your two sons have also started a family and started a business outside. I know how much money they have taken from their family over the years. They are also rich. I don't think they will come back in the future. You will also go to their place to retire in the future. Leave the land and houses in this family to Jinbao and others."

Chen Shide then said to Mu Jinshan: "No matter what you have done to me in the past, I will forgive you for your life after you have followed me. I will get some money from the counter and go home later. This money was prepared by me. You are now a little rich man, so you should take the right path in the future."

Chen Shide finally said to Chen Jinbao, Jin Xiaoai and Wang Yinhua: "We seem to have a family-divided meeting today. In fact, this is a family-divided meeting. The store at home will be managed by the third wife in the future. The villages managed by Mu Jinshan were managed by the fourth wife, and the money they earned will be controlled by them. However, there must be a prerequisite, that is, the property will not be exported to my Chen family. If you two are gone or get married, these two properties must be returned to my Chen family."

Chen Shide's arrangement was recorded in black and white, and all the people who attended the meeting signed and wrote and copied.

After announcing his decision, Chen Shide seemed to have exhausted his energy in his life, and he fell asleep in a daze. Li Qinglin looked at the thin man lying on the bed, and then looked at all the parties who were very satisfied. He now had to admire this old guy who was extremely smart or cunning.

After witnessing the scene of the Chen family splitting up the family and not dividing their property, Li Qinglin then inspected various places.

Yan Boling's company has opened, and their subordinates have also begun to look for opportunities to contact the Japanese and puppets, but after all, they are just starting out and everyone has not yet gained the trust of the Japanese and puppets, so there are very few sources of information. Li Qinglin did not get the information from the Japanese and puppets, and the troops have never fought again since the autumn harvest. He was afraid that his subordinates would start to slack off, so he immediately went to various places...
