Both otters fire and merge
If anyone today thinks that otters are cute little ones who only swim in the water and rub their faces from time to time, they may wish to learn about the next story.
Otters rubbing their faces have poked the hearts of many people
This is a "blockbuster" with a time span of up to 5 years, including suspense, hatred, blood, action, love and many other high-grossing elements, even if the protagonist is replaced by a human, it must be an epic of ups and downs.
Let's gossip less, get to the point, and enjoy this breathtaking otter legend with my words.

In the 1970s, due to human development activities and industrial and agricultural pollution, the living space of otters shrank off a cliff, especially in many Asian countries, and reached the state of extinction.
As a small country, Singapore is naturally reluctant to free up land resources for animals to inhabit, so otter populations are thought to have disappeared in Singapore as early as 50 years ago. However, with the strengthening of animal protection awareness and the construction of green belts, finally in 1998, a family of otters set out from the Phong Ka Lan region of Malaysia, using Daedeok Kwang Island as a springboard, and finally entered Singapore, and settled all the way along the coastline to the south of Singapore.
In 1998, otters moved to show a road map
These otters were small at first, but due to the delight and care of Singaporeans, they soon blossomed and established one otter family after another as a kinship unit. One of the most famous is an otter race called "Bishan", which has been the most numerous and most powerful in Singapore's otter world since 2005.
How powerful is it?
To give an example that everyone can understand, it is equivalent to Hong Xing's position in Causeway Bay.
Why?
Take a look at the map and notice the location of the red circle, which is called Bishan Community, which is the longxing place of the "Bishan Gang" of the Otter Family.

Otters, as the name suggests, where there are rivers is their livable territory, and the origin of the "Bishan Gang" is along the Garling River that originated in the Bishan community all the way south, they encountered the "Dere Gang" entrenched near st. Andrew's Church, the "Karan Gang" in Kahlan Park, and the "NiYan Gang", "Yu Bin Gang", "Jialiwan Gang" and other large and small otter families, each of which is not a fuel-saving lamp, but the Bishan Gang will win every battle without defeat, who stands in the way and destroys whom, it only took less than 5 years. Almost the entire Kalang River of more than 13 kilometers has been collected, which can be called "Lü Bu among people and red rabbit among otters"!
The Bishan Gang is even internationally well-known and has its own wiki entry
The Bishan Gang enjoyed a lot of time sitting on the Kallang River, which is rich in resources and delicious fish and shrimp, but this wonderful time of the mountain king was disturbed by another otter family in 2013.

In 2013, a young couple of unknown origins who didn't look like local otters came to the coastal Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore at the mouth of the Kallang River, but due to the small number and limited range of activities, they did not attract the attention of the big Bishan Gang. The pair of otters settled down, and immediately gave birth to 5 cubs, the number of members reached 7, no one expected that the unsightly mom-and-pop shop of that year actually became one of the two major otter forces in Singapore that could compete with the Bishan Gang in the future, the Binhai Gang.
In March 2015, the first two major gang clashes witnessed by humans, the Bishan Gang and the Binhai Gang dispatched nearly 20 troops in a shallow bay near the Marina Bay Sands Hotel, known as the "First Seamount War".
The cause of the war was that a female member of the Bishan Gang took her cubs on a routine patrol of the territory and suddenly found the Coastal Gang downstream, and on the day when the warm sun was not dry, the otters of the Coastal Gang were also happily playing on the lawn, not noticing the eyes staring at them in the distance.
In order to maintain the country and mountains they had laid down in blood, the Bishan Gang quickly called out thugs, almost half of the gang's combat strength gathered near the hotel, and slowly moved to the Binhai Gang, and at this time the Binhai Gang realized that the people who came were not good, in line with the simple military concept of first attacking strong and then attacking, the Binhai Gang decided to preemptively attack the other side of the water. And the Bishan Gang, as an old jianghu that has been in the battlefield for a long time, how can it sit and wait for the opposite side to shoot? Almost as soon as the Binhai Gang was launched, the Bishan Gang quickly made the same move, and the two sides met in the narrow road in the middle of the river and launched a fierce confrontation.
The two sides engaged each other in a short battle
The battle lasted for a short time, almost a charge, the Binhai Gang could not resist, and fled to the shore, while the Bishan Gang "should chase the poor and the poor", while shouting, while continuing to pursue, until all the members of the Binhai Gang were driven out of the vicinity of the seawater desalination plant more than 900 meters away, and only then did they collect the troops, and the "First Seren war" lasted about 1 hour before and after, ending in the fiasco of the Binhai Gang.

After the defeat, the Binhai Gang had no choice but to sign a humiliating unequal treaty with the Bishan Gang, and they gave up 4 square kilometers of green vegetation including the Binhai Golf Stadium and the Binhai Garden, and the 1.3-kilometer-long rich waterfront, and from then on, the members of the Binhai Gang wanted to forage for food, and could only take advantage of the absence of the Bishan Gang to sneak across the road to the water's edge. Needless to mention, the traffic on the road also poses a great threat to their lives and safety, which is equivalent to being forcibly exiled directly from the rich Promised Land of the Central Plains to the barren lands of the frontier.

After such a day, the Binhai Gang finally couldn't stand it, and under the leadership of the patriarch, they tried many times on a small scale to see if they could return to the vicinity of the Jinsha Hotel, but unfortunately, the Bishan Gang was always guarding the tiger, and did not give any chance, and even several times, the battle between the two sides was triggered and ended at the last moment.
The members of the Binhai Gang bypassed the eyeline of the Bishan Gang, quietly set off from the coast farther south, crossed the Kallang River, and after countless hardships, crossed the dangerous human activity area, marched all the way to the northwest with unimaginable great perseverance and tenacity, and after about a week, they finally traveled 6 kilometers to the vicinity of the Marina Bay Grassland.
The red circle is the Bishan Gang's sphere of influence, the blue circle is the new home of the Binhai Gang, and the blue arrow is the Binhai Gang's Long March Route
At this time, the Binhai Gang was spared the war disaster with the Bishan Gang, the new home was rich in food by the grass and water, and even the cubs were thriving, one by one, looking like the backbone of the future family.

When everyone thought that this once-suffering family was about to be revived, a huge misfortune befell them - in June 2017, the leader of the Coastal Gang, the father otter, unfortunately passed away. At this time, only 2 years and 3 months have passed since the First Seamount War.
The death of the otter father may be related to the Long March, because the road is too hard, the physical exertion is too large, and everything on the road is unknown, the otter father sometimes has to "try" those strange foods when he is far away from the river to ensure the safety of the family's rations, in the process, it mistakenly eats the bread that humans have smeared with rat poison. The last photograph of the otter's father also confirms that after arriving in his new home, his body quickly lost weight and became extremely weak.
The prosperous Binhai Gang left only orphans and widows after the patriarch left, and the next day, coincidentally, the old enemy Bishan Gang happened to discover the new residence of the Binhai Gang, there was no waiting, no temptation, no stay, the Bishan Gang almost between the electric light and flint, launched an attack on the Binhai Gang, the two sides fought again, known in history as the "Second Haishan War".

On June 11, 2017, the strong Bishan Zhuang Ding took advantage of the new death of the Binhai Gang and launched a fierce attack, obviously in the world of otters, the law of victory of the mourning soldiers does not apply, and the Binhai Gang was beaten unilaterally during the battle process, but the balance of victory did not tilt towards the Bishan Gang, because the humans on the shore intervened!
The onlookers really could not see that the mother and son of the Binhai Gang were exterminated by the Bishan Gang, but subject to Singapore's strict animal protection policy, everyone could not use the weapons and tools of stone long sticks to directly go down, so they could only harass the crazy Bishan Gang by roaring and stomping their feet to make a huge noise, under the huge intimidation and deterrence, the Bishan Gang retreated, they no longer had the heart to expand the results of the battle, and returned home under the leadership of the patriarch, drawing a draw for the second Haishan War.
Humanity intervened in the war between the two sides
The inability to eliminate the Binhai Gang is tantamount to ending their total victory record for the Bishan Gang, so they plan day and night, intending to launch a war of extermination against the Binhai Gang again. However, the Third World War did not come as expected soon, and in May 2018, a generation of tyrants and the patriarch of the Bishan family also died. During the 7 years that he was in charge of the situation, this Holy Lord maintained the existing sphere of influence of the Bishan Gang and did not lose an inch of land.
Singapore's relevant non-profit organization announced the death of Bishan's father on Facebook, and then transported his body to the wildlife conservation group for disposal.
Almost a year ago, the scene reappeared, the Bishan gang had not yet woken up from its grief, the third Haishan War broke out, because the patriarchs of both sides had died, coupled with the equal strength of the troops, and at the same time the two sides were feuds, almost all of them gambled on the fortunes of the clan with the "soldiers of the clan" who had done their best in a battle, so the grand situation of this great war was unprecedented.
What is surprising is that the new leader of the Bishan Gang seems to have a slight understanding of the art of war, and in the course of the battle, he unbelievably uses a triangular battle formation to cut the opponent's formation, and then quickly closes the encirclement, forming a local more fight less. This is the classic tactic used in the 19th century naval battle of Trafalgar.

The good deeds later reviewed the schematic diagram of the Battle of the Bishan Gang drawn
With the blessing of tactics, the Bishan Gang won a great victory and became the supreme "Otter Royal Family" in Singapore. After the defeat, the Binhai Gang could only reluctantly withdraw from the territory and embark on the journey of finding a new home again.
It is worth mentioning that although it lost to the Bishan Gang, the strength of the Binhai Gang is still there, and in the face of other families, it is still a ceiling-level existence, such as this Zuke Gang, not to mention the dry fight, just by the Glance of the Binhai Gang, it is frightened to flee.

In fact, in the feud between the Bishan Gang and the Binhai Gang, there is also a dark line of love that makes people sigh.
After the first Haishan War in 2015, the relevant organizations counted the otters on both sides to confirm the number of wounded or killed, in the process found that a generation of cubs were missing, when people thought it had been buried at the bottom of the river or unfortunately died, it magically appeared in the Bishan Gang's family, and further observation found that it was dating a female otter in the Bishan Gang!
If that's all, at best, it's just the normal estrus and mating of animals, but what is intriguing is that 3 years later, the third seamount war, the two sides almost fell out of the nest, as a male in the right year, this otter had no reason not to participate in the war, but until the end of the battle, people did not find its figure.
If you use your imagination and expand it reasonably, this is almost the Otter's version of Romeo and Juliet.
Parents crossed the ocean to Singapore, from a small brocade of the coastal prince does not know what trouble is, and the sudden invasion of the strong enemy destroyed its homeland, and the father always reminds himself to regain and rebuild his homeland, but the ambition is not paid to die first, the prince who inherited the legacy vowed to fulfill his father's wishes, but unexpectedly fell in love with the daughter of the enemy family, on the one hand is his own motherland, on the other hand is his beloved woman, no matter who he chooses, it is a torture, the best way is not to help each other, withdraw from the matter, Be a pair of outlaw mandarin ducks with your beloved.
Yes, this is the otter of Singapore, as if it is a small river, bloody rain and wind and chivalrous tenderness, well, I am Tao Brother, love to fish and talk, like to pay attention to me.
