Because things happened so suddenly, Brother Scar basically didn't bring out any of the wealth he had accumulated over the years. The tons of gold in his lair were all used by the joint government forces of the two countries.
What's even more terrible is that due to the traitor's betrayal, the two governments took control of Brother Scar's accounts in foreign banks and submitted them to the International Court of Justice to freeze the accounts.
As a result, Brother Scar's situation is worsened. The owner of this forged fishing boat is hiding in Tibet, and is planning to go back and hide for a while to relax.
But even if he returns to his country, he still needs to spend money. Apart from other things, his group of brothers still have to support him. After thinking about it, Brother Scar is ready to do a job in the Strait of Malacca.
But Brother Scar never imagined that the target of his attack this time was actually his sworn brother. As the saying goes, a flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer recognized each other.
"When something like this happens, don't you know how to come to me?"
After listening to Brother Scar's story, Bai Zhentian suddenly became furious, pointed at Brother Scar's nose and cursed: "Am I just a bastard who only cares about himself in your heart?"
When Bai Zhentian left the Daquan Gang, Brother Scar also complained a little, because the person he trusted most was Bai Zhentian. There was a problem with the Daquan Gang, but Bai Zhentian chose to leave instead of solving it, which made Brother Scar feel very disappointed.
It was precisely because of Bai Zhentian's departure that Brother Scar returned to the sea and became a pirate. Later, when the Daquan Gang fell apart, Brother Scar also felt that Bai Zhentian should bear some responsibility.
Bai Zhentian knew these things very well, but the more this happened, the angrier he felt. Boss Bai, who always put justice first, felt very sad for losing the trust of his old brother.
"Brother, if you hadn't insisted on leaving back then, how could our Daquan Gang have fallen apart?" Brother Scar stared at Bai Zhentian closely, and finally said these words that had been in his heart for more than ten years.
Back then, the eight brothers became sworn brothers to conquer the world together. The relationship was closer than that of real brothers. Although some conflicts occurred later, the fight between the second and third brothers still made Brother Scar feel very sad.
"Lao Ba, you were still young at that time, and there were some things that you didn't see through..."
After hearing what Brother Scar said, Bai Zhentian sighed and said, "Lao Ba, once we robbed a batch of drugs from Els and were ambushed when we came back, do you still remember?"
"How can you not remember?" Brother Scar looked a little excited and said, "Brother Qi was shot because of that time. He died later. I will remember it all my life..."
In addition to admiring Bai Zhentian back then, Brother Scar had a good relationship with Lao Qi. Because the two were of the same age, they were almost inseparable when they were in and out, and they were really like brothers.
That time when he was snatching food from a drug dealer, Lao Qi was shot on the way back. After recovering from his injuries for more than half a year, he finally passed away, leaving Brother Scar depressed for a long time.
"Lao Ba, think about who didn't go during that rush for goods?" Bai Zhentian's face was a little gloomy, and he was in a very bad mood when he mentioned what happened that year.
"Huh? The second brother and... and the third brother didn't go either..."
After hearing what Bai Zhentian said, Brother Scar couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Although the second and third children had good reasons not to go at the time, looking back now, this matter is indeed a bit strange.
"The ambush was carried out by the people who informed Els by the second and third sons."
Bai Zhentian shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "The second and third sons have already regarded me as a thorn in their side. If I don't leave, Daquan will soon face a firefight. Do you want me to deal with them personally?"
Bai Zhentian's words had been pressing in his heart for more than twenty years. After he said them now, he breathed a sigh of relief. It was as if a big stone had fallen from his chest.
"Brother...brother, are you...are you telling the truth?" Brother Scar raised his head in disbelief, his voice trembling a little.
"At this point, why did I lie to you?"
Bai Zhentian smiled bitterly and said: "You were unwilling to leave me at that time. I told you not to stay in the big circle anymore, because I was afraid that the second and third sons would take advantage of you, and you would inevitably die unknown..."
"This... this is impossible!" Brother Scar's face was full of pain. He never imagined that the seventh brother with whom he had the best relationship would actually die in the hands of his own brother.
"Nothing is impossible."
Bai Zhentian said: "I found the phone recordings between Lao Er and Els, but there are people from the mainland who are holding on to Lao Er. If I don't want to quarrel, I can only leave..."
"Damn it, they all deserve to die!"
Brother Scar hit him hard on the thigh. He was a very emotional person. Even though he had been lost for more than twenty years, his brother's betrayal hurt him very much.
"Okay, Lao Ba, even if Lao Er and Lao San are not dead, they are right in front of you now. Can you do it?"
Bai Zhentian waved his hand and said: "Your foundation in the Caribbean is gone. I will ask someone to apply for new identity documents for you and your people. From now on, you should follow me. The old brothers from back then are the only ones left."
There are two of us..."
"Brother, are all my people okay?"
Brother Scar showed a trace of worry on his face and said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to go back to Europe and South America. The people there are holding me very tight, and Americans are also involved."
Having said this, Brother Scar couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. He had worked hard in the Caribbean for more than 20 years and accumulated billions of wealth, but it all disappeared overnight.
"Those of your men are fine. Brother Qin was very measured in his actions. They are just unconscious..."
Bai Zhentian pointed at Qin Feng and said: "You should also meet him. His name is Qin Feng. He is the current guest minister of Hongmen. He has a high seniority in the world. You and his brother should be commensurate with each other..."
"Oh? I haven't asked Brother Qin where to go?"
Brother Scar was a little surprised at Qin Feng's age. He stood up and clasped his fists with both hands and said, "My surname is Zhang Mingbao, and I am the eighth eldest among the brothers. Brother Qin can just call me my eighth brother..."
Although Zhang Bao was very young back then, he was a ruthless character who dared to fight and fight hard in the big circle gang. In addition, he was the sworn brother of Bai Zhentian and others, so some people who were older than him in the big circle called him my Eighth Brother.
After pulling the pole to go to sea and build a mountaintop on his own, the new members also followed the old man and called Bage. Because the scar on Zhang Bao's face was too obvious, over time, Bage became Scar Brother.
"Bago, I come from three religions and nine schools. Master had a nickname in the world called Yama that kills life. I wonder if Bago has ever heard of it?"
Qin Feng could tell from the gesture of Zhang Bao's cupped hands that this man was definitely a figure in the world, and maybe someone of the older generation had walked in the world.
"Death-seeking Yama? Sure enough, you have some connection with Mr. Bai?" Zhang Bao was stunned when he heard this, and opened his mouth to point out the relationship between Qin Feng and Bai Zhentian.
"Hey, Brother Ba, do you also know about this?" Qin Feng's eyes glanced at Bai Zhentian, thinking that these were the past events that Bai Zhentian had mentioned to Zhang Bao during their chat.
Seeing Qin Feng looking at him, Bai Zhentian smiled and said, "Don't look at me. Before the liberation, Zhang Bao's family was a powerful man in Guangdong Province. Your master might have some connections with their elders."
"Oh? I wonder who is the elder in Bago's family?"
Zaishi rarely mentioned his past to Qin Feng back then, because he was very ruthless when traveling around the world. Although he had some friends, he had more enemies, and he didn't want to hurt his disciples.
"My ancestors are not famous for several generations, but if you go up a few generations, you should have heard of it."
After telling Bai Zhentian about the past, Zhang Bao looked much more relaxed and said with a smile: "I have an ancestor with the same name as me, and he also made a living at sea..."
"Same name, same surname. People from Guangdong Province..."
Qin Feng muttered something in his mouth, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he blurted out: "It turns out that you are a descendant of Zhang Baozai. No wonder you don't want to follow Boss Bai to Hongmen, but want to go to sea to make a living..."
As Qin Feng spoke, he couldn't help but smile on his face, because Zhang Bao's ancestors were indeed so famous. The Zhang Baozai he was talking about and Zheng Zhilong in the early Qing Dynasty were the two most famous people in Chinese history. Big pirate.
Zhang Baozai's real name is Zhang Bao, and he comes from a fisherman's family. When he was 15 years old, Zhang Bao went fishing with his father and was kidnapped by the pirate Zheng Yi from the Red Flag Gang, and he has been on a pirate ship ever since.
Zheng Yi admired his youth and intelligence and ordered him to follow him. Soon, he adopted him as his adopted son and was promoted to leader. Because of his age, everyone added the character "子" to the end of his name.
Later, Zheng Yi was blown overboard and drowned in a typhoon. Zhang Baozai became the leader. He made three rules to his subordinates: anyone who escapes ashore will be killed, anyone who steals public property will be killed, and anyone who insults abducted women will be killed.
In addition, it was also stipulated that anyone who bought things from the people had to pay twice as much, and anyone who took things from the people by force was immediately executed. Therefore, Zhang Baozai received support from the people along the coast and had enough food and gunpowder.
Moreover, Zhang Baozai is very smart. Whenever the situation is unfavorable and his subordinates are shaken, he will always use Taoist divination and divination to come up with his own ideas and say that they are blessed by the gods.
Due to the ingenious and thorough arrangements of Cheung Po Tsai's action plan, the expected results were achieved every time. Big and small bosses regarded Cheung Po Tsai as a god. The number of people who took refuge in Cheung Po Tsai continued to increase, and his power became stronger and stronger, making him the number one pirate among all gangs.
In his heyday, Cheung Po Tsai had more than 70,000 subordinates and more than 1,000 large and small ships. The big ships were equipped with cannons, many daggers, spears, etc., and the small ships were equipped with rotating cannons, and they traveled widely in various waters of Southeast Asia and Asia.
Since Zhang Baozai mainly targeted passing government ships and foreign ships, the Qing government sent troops to destroy them many times.
However, every encirclement and suppression campaign failed. Lin Guoliang, the deputy general of the Humen Association, died in Kaizhou, Lin Fa, the general, was defeated by A Niang Shoe, Xu Tinggui, the commander-in-chief, was killed in the mast gate, and Sun Chuanmou, the admiral of the Navy, was defeated in Macao.
Later, Zhang Bailing became the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and reversed the previous forceful suppression, and adopted the method of cutting off food, eliminating aid, banning ships from going to sea, and forcing him to commit suicide. Zhang Baozai had no plunder on the sea and was in trouble.
After dealing with Zhang Bailing like this for more than a year, Zhang Baozai's situation became increasingly difficult.
In desperation, Zhang Baozai negotiated with Zhang Bailing and led more than 20,000 of his subordinates to go ashore and surrender. As a result of paying a lot of ships and weapons, he was finally given the position of "Garrison" and wore a red cap with flower feathers.
After joining the Qing government, Cheung Po Tsai began to eradicate pirates. Because he was familiar with pirate habits, in the following decades, pirates along the coast were once extinct.
The most taboo thing in the world of martial arts is to take refuge in the Six Doors and deal with one's own people. Therefore, Cheung Po Tsai's reputation in the world of martial arts is mixed. Some say he has no choice but to betray his friends for glory.
However, Qin Feng knew that Zhang Baozai never killed indiscriminately.
The pirates he destroyed, except for some who betrayed him, were some ill-disciplined pirates who burned, killed and looted. Most of the pirates who were relatively disciplined were recruited by Zhang Baozai, which was not like the rumors in the world.
.
"Bago, you...have really inherited the ancestral legacy!"
After learning that Zhang Bao's ancestor was Zhang Baozai, Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh, because he also knew that after Zhang Baozai's death, his son Zhang Yulin also became a court official.
But when it came to Zhang Baozai's grandchildren, their family fortunes were in decline and they had no choice but to return to the sea and become pirates. That's why Qin Feng said what he said.

PS: Let me just say a few words. Some friends always say that they don’t write about domestic affairs. I want to write about it too.
But in this current environment, with river crabs and mythical beasts flying all over the sky, I can’t write anything. When uploading, the place names have been blocked countless times. How should I write?
Some people say that Baojian is not as good-looking as Genius fortune teller and Golden Eyes. Alas, the creative environment is different, but the effort spent on eye-catching is the same. I can only do my best to bring the best stories to my friends.
In addition, the fat man wants a monthly pass, just to motivate himself to write more. There is no need to complain if you don’t want to give it. Don’t talk about updates. It’s only been a month since the surgery. You can’t give money or your life, right?
In the end, we still asked for monthly votes, which made those who didn’t vote so angry, hahaha!
