January 23, 1867.
Zanzibar Sultanate, Dar es Salaam Harbor barracks.
Bagash Bin Said was planning a coup to overthrow the Zanzibar Sultanate with his confidants.
"Abdullah, how many men can you gather?" Bagash Bin Said asked his subordinate.
"Prince, originally I controlled over eighty people in the army, plus a few officers we placed inside, we control over 300 soldiers."
"Very good, I have more than 800 men, combined that makes 1200, which is already one-third of the entire army in the kingdom." Bagash Bin Said analyzed.
"And Magid, that guy, still doesn't know our plan, probably indulging in pleasure in the palace. If we can strike unexpectedly and capture Magid's trusted men, then the Zanzibar Sultanate will be ours." Bagash Bin Said said excitedly.
The officers and advisors were also in high spirits, because the chances of winning were great, and if the coup succeeded, they could reach high positions in the Zanzibar Sultanate.
