Hong Kong variety show: Young Master Kun, the ultimate behind-the-scenes boss!

Before he arrived, Liang Kun had emphasized this person to him, telling him that if he saw him, he should kill him immediately without holding back.

"Speaking of Zhao Shanhe, he can be described as a rising star in the Sanlian Gang." Hai'an also showed some admiration when Zhao Shanhe was mentioned.

Zhao Shanhe was initially just Lei Gong's driver, but because of his great merit, Lei Gong promoted him to the head of the Poisonous Snake Hall.

To be honest, this Viper Hall didn't exist before; it was established specifically for Zhao Shanhe.

This is nothing unusual, since the Sanlian Gang establishes new branches every year; otherwise, it wouldn't have grown to have dozens of branches now.

At first, no one paid much attention, but later Zhao Shanhe single-handedly developed the Poisonous Snake Hall into a large and powerful force. Before Lei Gong died, it already had a medium-sized hall with more than 500 people.

The Four Seas Gang only has a little over a thousand members. If they were to really fight the Poisonous Snake Hall, the Four Seas Gang might not be the one to win in the end.

"Brother Kun is right, this pheasant is indeed a major problem and should be eliminated as soon as possible," Luo Tianhong thought to himself.

In just a few months, he's already built the Viper Gang into such a large organization. If he were given a few more years, would he have developed it into the largest branch of the Triad? Nobody can guarantee that.

"When will you begin your operation?" Hai'an asked Luo Tianhong with some curiosity.

"I don't know either, we'll have to wait for further news." Luo Tianhong shook her head.

He genuinely didn't know that before they set off, the Dark Hall had already sent people to gather detailed intelligence on the Triads, and then to compile it all to identify the first, second, and subsequent targets.

The order is from smallest to largest; it's impossible to start fighting Heaven and Earth right away. If that were the case, the losses would be enormous, which wouldn't be in Hung Hing's interest.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, Luo Tianhong and his men stayed in this small fishing village in Pingtung, and no one went out.

The food was all brought back by Luo Tianhong himself.

"Brother Tianhong, news has come from the Dark Hall."

Just as Luo Tianhong was feeling bored, one of his subordinates suddenly came over to report.

"Let me see it." Luo Tianhong felt a surge of excitement.

After waiting for three days, news finally came. If there hadn't been any news, he felt like he was going to turn into a fool.

"Should we make our move in Pingtung first?" Luo Tianhong frowned slightly as he looked at the intelligence report.

Honestly, he didn't want to take action in Pingtung now, since they would need to leave from Pingtung when they retreated in the future.

If they cause too much trouble here, it could easily affect their future prospects.

However, since the Dark Hall had already sent over intelligence and made such a suggestion, he felt it was worth a try.

The Sanlian Gang has more than a dozen branches in the Pingtung area alone. The largest branch, Xintang, has about a thousand members. The others, such as the Jin, Yin, Tong, and Tie branches, Tianlongtang, and Hailongtang, have hundreds of members, while the fewest have only a few dozen. This makes them a perfect target for their first operation.

Thinking of this, Luo Tianhong burned the intelligence report, as he had already memorized its contents.

"Gather everyone, prepare to move." Luo Tianhong waved his hand, and soon everyone gathered around.

Just like Luo Tianhong, these people had been waiting anxiously for a long time.

"Now, I will divide into three groups. I will lead one group to Xiongtang, the second group of ten people will provide support in the surrounding area, and the third group of twenty people will ambush on the retreat route."

Soon, Luo Tianhong issued the order to take action.

These one hundred men were the elite of the Hung Hing War Hall, and they were ready in an instant as soon as the order was given.

Luo Tianhong's three days there were well spent; he practically covered the entire Pingtung area and drew up a map for them to memorize.

Soon, Luo Tianhong led a group of seventy people and set off. At the same time, a second group of ten people remained hidden around the first group, providing support.

In Pingtung, Xiongtang is considered the third largest temple, with more than 300 people.

However, there are definitely not that many people who regularly stay in Xiongtang; thirty or forty people would be considered good.

In the Xiong Hall, Hall Master Zhao Zhi summoned the deputy hall master and some squad leaders.

"The main reason I've called everyone here is this: our Sanlian Gang is about to go to war with the Hung Hing in Hong Kong," Zhao Zhi said loudly from his high seat.

This is the order that came to him from above.

"Great! I've been wanting to fight these bastards from Hong Kong Island for ages."

"Everyone says that Hung Hing is the most powerful triad in Hong Kong, and I've wanted to meet them for a long time."

"What's the point of fighting those petty thugs on Hong Kong Island? They're just a bunch of idiots slashing each other with knives. I, Old Black, can take them all down by myself."

"Damn it, these little bastards from Hung Hing dare to murder our boss Lei Gong? They're really courting death."

"Boss, just give the order. As long as you give the order, I'll take the brothers to Hong Kong Island right now and bring that 'Brother Kun' from Hung Hing to you."

"Yes, Master, give the order."

In their eyes, the gangsters on Hong Kong Island were utterly despicable. Their Triad had long since started using firearms, while those gangsters on Hong Kong Island were still hacking at each other with machetes—they were incredibly weak.

"Alright, that's enough. The higher-ups only gave us this information; they didn't tell us to send our Xiong Hall. As long as we guard against Hung Hing and prevent them from launching a sneak attack, that's fine," said Hall Master Zhao Zhi, slapping the table.

To be honest, he also felt quite sorry for him. Just as his subordinates thought, if he were to lead the team, he was confident that he could lead his Xiong Tang's several hundred men to take down Hung Hing.

A bunch of guys with knives fighting against guys with guns? Don't be ridiculous. They could take down Hung Hing even with their eyes closed.

"Oh, what a pity."

"Yes, we really wish our Xiongtang would take action."

The leaders below were somewhat regretful; if they had made some contributions, they might have been able to open their own branch of the gang.

How did the Sanlian Gang come to have so many branches? It came about this way: as long as someone made a contribution, they could establish their own branch.

Just then, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out outside Xiongtang.

"What's going on? Let's go out and see." Zhao Zhi frowned and said, but he wasn't too worried.

This is the Xiong Tang of the Sanlian Gang, who dares to act recklessly?

Even if the surrounding small gangs had the guts, they wouldn't dare to provoke the Sanlian Gang.

It must have been one of the leaders' men who accidentally discharged the gun.

Today, Xiong Tang is holding a meeting. These leaders all brought their underlings with them, and there are more than a hundred people here in total.

After Zhao Zhi gave the order, one of the underlings went out, but returned in a sorry state in less than five minutes.

"Master, something terrible has happened! Someone has broken in!" the junior leader gasped, breathless.

As soon as he stepped outside, he saw dozens of people attacking his own branch of the sect. At first, he didn't pay much attention, so he didn't rush to report it.

The other side had roughly sixty or seventy people, while Xiong Tang had over a hundred here today. But he was quickly dumbfounded.

As the firefight progressed, he discovered that the enemy's marksmanship was far superior to his own, especially one of the leaders, whose marksmanship was almost perfect, if not perfect.

In just five minutes, they had lost ten men, while the enemy hadn't lost a single one; the worst off were just hit in the arm.

"What?" Zhao Zhi stood up in surprise.

He heard the sounds of gunfire outside, but he didn't pay much attention. The fact that the leader hadn't returned to report meant that the situation was still good.

But now, he stood up angrily: "Come on, let's go outside and see what's going on."

He wanted to see who dared to shit on the head of the Xiong Tang faction of the Sanlian Gang; they really had no regard for their lives.

The people who arrived were Luo Tianhong and his men. He hadn't expected that there would be more than a hundred people when he arrived, even though he had originally planned for only thirty or forty.

However, he was not afraid, as he had brought only elite troops with him. He was also glad that he hadn't been overconfident and had divided his forces into several groups, which would have been disastrous.

The firefight lasted for nearly an hour. Initially, Luo Tianhong planned to lead a surprise attack, but in the end, he had no choice but to launch a direct assault.

Fortunately, these warriors were all elites, not only in fighting but also in marksmanship, which had been honed through countless bullets.

An hour later, no one in the Xiong Hall was able to stand up anymore; they all lay in pools of blood.

"withdraw"

Luo Tianhong carefully inspected the area, even adding more guns, and after massacring Xiong Tang, he led his men to retreat.

The firefight had been going on for an hour, and by now, reinforcements from the Triads might have already arrived.

If they don't leave now and get stuck here, it'll be terrible; they're running out of ammunition.

Luo Tianhong's prediction was correct; just as he and his men retreated, reinforcements from the Sanlian Gang arrived.

"Damn it, who did this?"

The Sanlian Gang received news of their control over the Pingtung area shortly after the gunfight broke out.

However, it takes some time to mobilize manpower. As the head of Xintang, Wang Hai has more than a thousand people under his command, so the support arrived the fastest.

When he arrived, the fighting had already stopped. As soon as he stepped inside, he saw corpses all over the ground, all of them members of the Triad.

"Go, find out if anyone from Xiongtang is still alive." Wang Hai's face was extremely grim.

On his own turf, Xiong Tang was massacred, which was a slap in the face for him.

"Boss, the brothers have searched everywhere, but haven't found a single survivor." Five minutes later, his subordinate came to report.

"Who did this? They were so ruthless and meticulous in their actions." Wang Hai frowned, his anger surging.

Now, one of the Sanlian Gang's branches has been wiped out, and they don't even know who the other party was.

"Boss, do you think it might be Hung Hing sent people to do this?" the subordinate suddenly asked suspiciously.

"Hung Hing?" Wang Hai frowned. "Do they have that capability?"

It wasn't that Wang Hai looked down on Hung Hing; in his opinion, those thugs only knew how to chop people up. When did they ever learn how to use guns?

"I'll report this to higher authorities first, and you can also tell the other branches to be careful." Wang Hai didn't have a better solution at the moment.
