The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 722: Are there still gangs in Hong Kong Island today? Du Yuesheng's curiosity!
The picture on the sky curtain changed again.

[Speaking of the underworld, what is the first image that comes to your mind? 】

[Do you think of the men in black holding steel knives, rampaging on the streets? ]

[Do you think that debt disputes between gangsters are bound to be bloody? ]

【But the actual situation was unexpectedly peaceful. 】

【When one gangster owes money to another gangster. 】

[Creditors don’t rush to your door with a bunch of minions to collect debts like in the movies.]

【Instead, they directly distribute flyers and post small advertisements on the streets! 】

[Let everyone on the street know that this person owes money and won’t pay it back! ]

[The power of this kind of social death is often more effective than direct physical action.]

[And those street fighting scenes that are common in film and television works. 】

[In reality, there is a special term for this, called "sunning horses." ]

[The so-called horse-showing is that both sides gather people to the streets. 】

[But it's not for fighting, it's for showing strength. 】

[The two gangs faced each other across the street, shouting at each other.]

【See who has a bigger show and more momentum. 】

[But I will never really do it. ]

[Just kidding, this is a society ruled by law, whoever strikes first will suffer! ]

[They would rather curse each other in the streets for three days and three nights.]

[I won’t throw the first punch easily! ]

[Hong Kong police's anti-gang achievements in recent years are displayed, and the so-called offensive weapons are even more ridiculous. ]

[You might expect to see rows of blades.]

【But in the actual photo. 】

[The most common "murder weapon" turned out to be a broom. ]

[Yes, it is the kind of broom that every household uses for cleaning. ]

[Some of them aren’t even brooms.]

【Just some common household tools. 】

[These gangsters can't even take out a decent machete. ]

【Those who use baseball bats are considered “well-equipped.”】

"Oh, garbage!"

After reading the contents on the skylight, Du Yuesheng smiled with contempt from the bottom of his heart.

When he led the Green Gang, he had tens of thousands of brothers under his command.

Whenever Du Yuesheng gave an order, the entire Jiangnan waters would be shaken.

At that time, all the docks, piers and warehouses were under his control.

Even the officials sent by the imperial court had to give him some face.

When he wanted to open up a water transportation base, he had a total of 3,000 elite brothers, each of them was a desperate criminal!
Everyone holds a sharp knife, and every cut draws blood!

Instead of being like these youngsters who dare to call themselves robbers with just a broom.

He once destroyed five major gangs in one night and took control of the waterways in the south of the Yangtze River.

In that battle, the sky was raining blood and corpses were everywhere!

This is the true method of the underground king!

Instead of being like these people who just post a few notes and ask for debt!
Anyone who owed him money from the Qing Gang back then would have his head chopped off within three days!

It's not that cowardly.

Do you still want to wait for others to pay you back voluntarily?

Back then on the banks of the Qinhuai River, they wiped out 3,000 elite members of the Tiger Gang in one fell swoop!

At that time, there were thousands of shining steel knives!
There are more than a dozen hidden weapon shops.

There are all kinds of hidden weapons, including short blades, darts, and caltrops.

When he conquered the 72 water forts in the south of the Yangtze River, that battle became famous all over the world, and even the imperial court had to acknowledge his power!
For a whole month of March, the river was filled with corpses of rival gangs!

This is the true method of the underground emperor.

The dock rules at that time were all fought for with one's life.

When he was in charge of the Green Gang, he never bothered to play any tricks like "showing off horses".

If you want to determine who is better, then fight for real.

It's a competition of real kung fu and the bloodiness of the brothers in the gang.

With this little ability, if it were in the past, he wouldn't even be worthy of carrying shoes for the Qing Gang!
Ming Dynasty plane.

When Zhang Xianzhong first saw what was on the sky curtain, he was quite excited.

After all, he also climbed up from the bottom and is very familiar with this underworld culture.

But as the content unfolded, his mood gradually changed from excitement to anger.

Are these so-called gangsters only capable of posting flyers and distributing leaflets?
When he was making his way in Shaanxi, he was just an ordinary horse dealer who made a living by reselling inferior horses.

In order to earn a living, he had experienced countless life-and-death situations.

He couldn't even remember how many times he had been slashed.

He once led dozens of brothers and ran rampant in Shaanxi and Henan.

At that time, he could not solve his problems by posting small advertisements. In order to collect a debt, he could bring people to kick down the creditor's door.

Just drag the man out and break his legs in the street.

This is what a truly tough guy should do.

He would personally charge into the front in every battle.

Covered in blood, ready to die!
I guess a butcher selling pork on the street can beat the shit out of these guys.

The picture on the sky screen switched again.

【When talking about the underworld in Hong Kong Island, let’s take a look at a set of data first. 】

【From the statistics, the facts may surprise many people. 】

【In the past decade or so, criminal cases related to underworld forces. 】

【It accounts for only a very small proportion of the total number of crimes in Hong Kong Island. 】

[Specifically, this ratio has always remained at around 3 percent.]

【This means that for every 100 crimes. 】

【Only three of them were related to underworld forces.】

[This number is far lower than the public imagines. ]

[And this ratio has remained stable over the years. ]

[There were no large fluctuations.]

This makes us ask.

[Movies and TV series have exaggerated the existence of the underworld.]

[Or is it that the black forces are really declining? ]

【To answer this question. 】

[It is also necessary to trace back to the historical origins of these organizations. ]

【The origin of the underworld in Hong Kong. 】

【It can be traced back to the Qing Dynasty. 】

【At that time, there existed a huge secret organization among the people. 】

[This is the famous Tiandihui.]

【When the Tiandihui was first established. 】

[The banner raised was to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.]

This slogan is very appealing.

【It attracted a large number of like-minded people to join. 】

【In the middle and late Qing Dynasty. 】

【The imperial court’s rule is becoming increasingly corrupt.】

【Officials are corrupt and embezzle a lot.】

【The people are living in misery.】

[The lives of ordinary people are becoming increasingly difficult.]

【Living in dire straits. 】

【In such an environment. 】

[The Tiandihui's ranks continue to grow.]

【More and more ordinary people are joining in. 】

【Seeking shelter and ways to survive. 】

【As the number of people increases. 】

[The strength of the Tiandihui is also growing day by day. ]

[It has formed a force that cannot be ignored among the people. ]

【Its tentacles extend to every corner of society.】

【From the coast to the inland. 】

【From the city to the countryside. 】

[The influence of the Tiandihui can be seen everywhere.]

This influence.

[It has continued into modern times.]

[It also contributed to the development of various gang organizations later. ]

【Provides deep soil.】

【so. 】

【The dark forces in Hong Kong today. 】

[In fact, it is a continuation of this period of history.]

【It's just that the times are changing. 】

【Their forms are constantly changing.】

【From the first anti-Qing patriots. 】

【It gradually evolved into what it is today.】
