In the 7th century, the Arabs crossed the Strait of Malacca and came to trade on Hainan Island, which belonged to the Tang Empire. Since then, a large number of Arabs have migrated around the Strait of Malacca, and they have begun to multiply here, and after hundreds of years of development, they have begun to establish states.

At the beginning of the 13th century, the first country established under the control of the Arabs: the Sultanate of Basak, and then sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, the Sultanate of Aceh, the Sultanate of Banten, the Sultanate of Cirebon, the Sultanate of Mataram, the Sultanate of Bajan, the Sultanate of Danmu, the Sultanate of Mazen and more than a dozen small countries.

Old countries, including Sriwijaya, have gradually come under Arab control. While the Arabs were establishing or controlling the state, a group of competition losers were expelled. It was that most of these losers became pirates, and the Arabs also had at least a dozen pirates in Malacca.

The most famous and largest is the Four Holy Gang Alliance, which is composed of the four gangs of the Liesheng Gang, the Qin Holy Gang, the Great Holy Gang, and the Most Holy Gang. In the entire Strait of Malacca, the strength of the Four Holy Gang Alliance is second only to the strength of the Dragon King of the South China Sea, and there will always be several frictions every year.

At that time, there were four major gangs under the Dragon King of the South China Sea, namely the Qingjiao Gang, the Giant Kun Gang, the Red Whale Gang, and the Black Shark Gang, with a total combat power of more than 35,000 pirates, and more than 50,000 personnel including logistics baggage.

The total combat strength of the Four Holy Gang Alliance is more than 20,000, and there is no chance of winning against the Dragon King of the South China Sea, but there are many people of the same race and race, so there is a few years ago when the Four Holy Gang united with several sultanates such as Srivijaya, Basel, Yaqi, and Lanka to besiege the forces of the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

Now among the Malacca pirates, the Four Holy Gang Alliance is dominant, and the gangs that dare to touch the tiger's whiskers have been wiped out.

At the southernmost tip of the Malay Peninsula is the Kingdom of Temasek, the state of Johor of the Kingdom of Pengxiang, which borders it, which is quite far away from the capital of the Kingdom of Pengxiang, Bentong, and the national strength of the Kingdom of Pengxiang is very weak. This state of Johor is controlled by the alliance of the Four Holy Gangs, as long as they do not build a country and can make the king of the Kingdom of Peng Xiang live with face, Peng Xiang will not send an army to conquer Johor.

Even in order to appease the alliance of the Four Holy Gangs, the king also appointed Mu Hai Taidi, the leader of the Johor Legion Gang, as the governor of Johor, in charge of the military and political power of a province. Although the Four Holy Gang Alliance didn't hold him as a king at all, they finally didn't refuse in public on the day of canonization, giving him an ugly look.

Johor has three natural harbours by the sea and one offshore island, the largest of which is called Mersing, the other two are Zhiliang City and Xinglou City, and the offshore island is called Sebu Island. The Four Holy Gang Alliances are stationed in these four places.

The best place in Mersing is naturally for the big brother Liesheng Gang, and the Liesheng Gang also has the largest number of gangs, with 8,000 pirates.

Zhiliang City is in Mersing, the second largest and belongs to the Qin Holy Gang. The Qinsheng Gang has 5,000 members, and it is also one of the best among the pirates.

Xinglou City is in the north of Zhiliang, the status of the three, belonging to the Great Sage Gang, the Great Sage Gang more than 4,000 people.

The island of Sibu is south of Mersing, and it belongs to the bottom of the four, and the Holy Gang has to be stationed here, and his number is only three thousand.

In the Most Holy Temple on Siwu Island, on a chair in Bao Hongzheng's main hall, he drank twisted black tea, and it was tea with sugar and milk, which made him frown, but he had to pretend to appreciate it very much.

Abbas, the leader of the Holy Gang who was sitting on the main seat of the main hall, was looking at Bao Hong with great interest. A person's expression of drinking tea is so rich, he has gained insight.

"Abbasid leader, what do you think of my proposal?" Bao Hong raised her head from the strange tea and looked straight at the Abbasid in the main seat.

"Gang Leader, with all due respect, I can cooperate with you to encircle and suppress the Black Shark Gang, but what good is my Holy Gang?" The Abbasid had a disapproving look in his eyes, and the former dragon king had been overturned by them. Now a small Black Shark Gang, he really didn't pay attention to it. The point is how much there is at stake!

"Abbasid gang leader, I guess you don't know, the four gangs under the Dragon King of the South China Sea, they all have a very special rule. That is, a large sum of gold and silver will be saved and placed somewhere. ”

"Why is that? Playing Treasure Hunting Game? ”

"If their gang is wiped out, this gold and silver will be their capital for a comeback!"

"Do you know how much gold and silver there is?" Abbasid became interested, and looked at Bao Hong's fat face.

"Once, the Black Shark Gang Leader used it in order to get rid of one of his captains. According to my estimate, there are at least five million taels of silver or more! ”

Abbasid's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"I'm pretty sure!"

"And how do we divide it?"

"It's all yours, I just want the head of the Black Shark!" Bao Hong gritted his teeth.

"Oh?! Dear bag, why is that? ”

"Because the black shark killed my own brother half a month ago and sent his head back to Hunnaya Island, I want to return a tooth for a tooth!"

"Oh, Allah willing, you will be able to fulfill your wish, my friend!"

"Abbasid Gang Master, do you agree?!"

"Of course! For your sake's sake of revenge for your brother, I agree to help you! It's up to me to decide when to do it, though! Do you have any objections? ”

"Nope! I'm thousands of miles away to help seven hundred good sons and daughters waiting for your dispatch at any time! ”

"Well, that's good! Come! Give the bag a cup of coffee! The coffee in our hometown is very tasty, you should definitely try it! ”

"This ...... Well, then it's better to be respectful than to obey! Bao Hong waited for the thing called coffee with a bitter face, of course he had drunk coffee, and it was not difficult to drink.

But if you've ever drunk Arab coffee, you won't say that, because they drink coffee and tea are the same as urine, and they like to add messy things. The black tea is better, and the added things can still be swallowed. But the coffee is filled with cloves, cardamom, cinnamon and many other spices, how dare you taste it!? Drink it in your mouth, the bitterness that comes from the soul can make you doubt life.

Luckily, the coffee cup is very small, so it's all over in one bite. After taking the water brought by the servant again and rinsing his mouth, Bao Hong hurriedly hugged his fists and said goodbye, for fear that this guy would make some dark drinks!

Sriwijaya Old Port, the third floor of a restaurant, Qian Wu and Zhou Shuo sit opposite each other.

"Come, Lao Zhou, kill this glass of wine, just like you and I have a dream! What do you look at the helper, fame and fortune, don't think about it! Qian Wu's loud voice has never changed, and he has no scruples on land, and the Black Shark Gang's hand can't reach out on land.

"Squeak~" Zhou Shuo and Qian Wu touched their wine glasses and drank them all, "I'm not reconciled!" It took so much effort, and in the end I cheapened that little brute! ”

"Alas! That's fate! Don't believe it! Qian Wu's voice was low, he was convinced, he didn't have the courage to fight for anything. Anyway, the money accumulated over the years is enough for the family to live comfortably!

"Hey! Coincidentally, you two are Captain Qian Wu and Captain Zhou Shuo of the Black Shark Gang, right? ”

This is a guy with a sharp beak and a monkey cheek next to him who came to talk with a drink.

"Who are you?!" Qian Wu's right hand was already on the handle of the horizontal knife on the side of the table, and whenever something was wrong, he immediately fought with his life.

"Sensei two nervous! I am Sun Xiaoguo, the commander of the second battalion of the Wanli Gang, and I have met with the two of them twice! I have no other advantages, but I have a good memory! ”

Sun Xiaoguo raised his wine glass with a smile, "Meeting is fate, come, two brothers, I'll do it first!" ”

Qian and Zhou glanced at each other, tasted it shallowly, put down their cups and waited for each other's next words.

"Two old brothers, I heard that your Black Shark Gang has changed its leader again?"

"What are you doing with all this?" Qian Wu looked at Sun Xiaoguo vigilantly, and then reacted again, he had left, and he was still worried about a fart! Relax again.

"Don't hide it from the two elder brothers, what happened on Lombok Island that day has already been reported in detail by us. If the two of you have a place now, you can come to my Wanli Gang, and our helper is thirsty for talent! ”

"Hey~, thank you! No, we're doing well! Qian Wu sneered twice, he didn't believe a word what the second battalion commander of the Wanli Gang said. Everyone who mixes pirates knows that as long as the Wanli Gang is a Mengyuan person, outsiders are also the lowest level of coolies and slaves.

Sun Xiaoguo didn't get annoyed when he saw that the two of them didn't eat oil and salt, but just chuckled, "The two of you are willing to live like this for the rest of your life?" What if our Wanli Gang can help you become the leader of the helper? ”

"Whew! Do you believe this? Zhou Shuo stood up disdainfully, pulled Qian Wu and prepared to leave.

"Our Wanli Gang may be almost there, what if we add the Four Holy Gang Alliance?" Sun Xiaoguo drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, still smiling.

"The Four Holy Gang! You're going to destroy the Black Sharks! Aren't you afraid we're going to tell Black Shark? Zhou Shuo's face changed, although they left the Black Shark Gang, it didn't mean that they were really willing to do so, the Black Shark Gang always had a glimmer of hope in them.

"What about telling Black Shark? He's not just as unstoppable! Not to mention, don't you want to take back the Black Sharks? ”

"What price do we have to pay?" Qian Wu asked.

"Simple! There should be a lot of you in the Black Shark Gang, just find a few people to do the internal response, and send us the news of the Black Shark Gang in time! ”

"Don't you have a fine work in Lombok? What more do we want our people to do? Qian Wu sneered.

"Our meticulous work is at the bottom, and it is inconvenient to inquire about and send news. In fact, the news of the Black Shark Gang is dispensable to us. It's just that Lombok Island is attacked, and being idle is idle, if you are interested in rebuilding the Black Shark Gang, as long as you hand over fifty percent of your harvest every year, it's a good deal! ”

"Humph! Qian Wu was about to refuse, but was pulled by Zhou Shuo and stopped making a sound.

"It's not to underestimate Brother Sun, we have to talk to you about this matter!"

"It's good to understand the difficulties of the two! It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's go back to the island together? Sun Xiaoguo smiled and nodded.

"We'll let our brothers downstairs know and we'll go!"
