"Hmm!"
Bald Wolf nodded in agreement, "Duke Mo Kai's analysis still makes a lot of sense!"
"This Liu Kai Xuan is vicious and malicious, trying to divide us from within. No matter what, I absolutely cannot let him succeed so easily!"
"We must strictly seal off the news, absolutely must not let the people below receive this message!"
"Right!"
Mo Kai nodded, "It seems, Chief Bald Wolf has already thought of a new strategy!"
"In that case, you should quickly go back and make arrangements!"
Bald Wolf wanted to use the method of sealing off information to suppress Liu Kai Xuan's pacification plan as much as possible.
But how could Liu Kai Xuan let him have his way so easily?
In addition to telling Grand Duke Mo Kai about his plan to pacify the pirates, Liu Kai Xuan also had the media publicize it.
The Kai Xuan Oil Field, controlled by Liu Kai Xuan, was essentially an independent small community.
After more than a year of development, the oil field had attracted a large number of workers and their families.
These people all lived within the mining area, gradually forming a small community, with a population of at least several thousand.
The oil field also established a newspaper, which published once a week.
Liu Kai Xuan spread the news through the Oil Field Weekly.
In fact, Liu Kai Xuan had also considered asking media organizations in surrounding countries to help publicize this matter.
Unfortunately, most mainstream media organizations were unwilling to help publicize this matter.
Pirate forces had committed numerous evil deeds, causing extremely negative repercussions in the surrounding areas.
The people of all surrounding countries deeply hated pirate forces.
Liu Kai Xuan's proposal to forgive pirates and reduce the sentences of those who surrendered was unacceptable to the populace of the surrounding regions.
At the same time, the big figures in the surrounding countries were also unwilling to defy public opinion on this matter.
After all, Liu Kai Xuan, strictly speaking, was still just a businessman.
All the influential figures felt that Liu Kai Xuan was not qualified to represent them in forgiving pirates.
For their own interests, all parties were unwilling to use public opinion to support Liu Kai Xuan.
However, they did not openly come out to oppose Liu Kai Xuan.
The reason was actually very simple: Liu Kai Xuan's reputation in Mannia Bay had basically become synonymous with being domineering and wild.
Anyone who provoked Liu Kai Xuan would be fiercely attacked by him.
First, it was the two commanders of the 75th Brigade, then Grand Duke Ma Ken, then the royal family of the Kingdom of Kai Ya, and subsequently the pirate forces.
Which one did not suffer a great loss under Liu Kai Xuan's hands, was left in disarray, and was unable to take care of themselves?
Many even lost their lives in the process of conflict.
Such a troublesome character, unless absolutely necessary, no one was willing to provoke Liu Kai Xuan.
Since I can't afford to provoke you, I won't provoke you, alright?
...
All parties did not respond to Liu Kai Xuan's offer of pacification.
At the same time, no pirate voluntarily came forward to surrender and accept reform.
This naturally led to a somewhat awkward situation.
Liu Kai Xuan's confidently issued announcement had directly fallen into the sea, completely failing to achieve its intended value.
However, Liu Kai Xuan remained very calm about this, as he had already obtained some intelligence through a special intelligence system.
Although the pirate leaders had tried their best to obstruct the spread of information and prevent their subordinates from being "recruited" by Liu Kai Xuan,
The small pirate subordinates were very well-informed.
Even if the pirate leaders blocked the news, they still received this information through private channels.
However: Every beginning is difficult; no one was willing to step forward and be the first to eat the crab. The pirates did not dare to surrender rashly.
During this period, Liu Kai Xuan's policy towards the pirate forces remained primarily suppression.
Strike them as soon as they show their faces! No leniency!
The pirates were beaten to tears and cries by Liu Kai Xuan's powerful force, but they were helpless.
The Mannia Sea was a place of survival of the fittest.
Whoever had the bigger fist could become the ruler of this world.
The weak, if they wanted to survive, had to obey the will of the strong.
Under Liu Kai Xuan's continuous high-pressure crackdown, the pirates were left with only two paths.
One was to surrender obediently, accept Liu Kai Xuan's arrangements, and eke out a living by preserving their lives.
The other option was to abandon their pirate profession, find a way to legitimize their identities, and find a decent job to make a living!
Some "part-time" pirate gangs had already begun to disband.
But it was extremely difficult for full-time pirate gangs to disband completely.
Pirates were also divided by their level of professionalism, with professional pirates and part-time pirates being roughly half and half.
Part-time pirates were generally composed of coastal fishermen.
This type of pirate force acted as pirates when there was business, robbing passing merchant ships.
When there was no "business," they made a living by fishing at sea.
Their greatest advantage was their strong concealment and resilience.
But these pirate forces composed of fishermen mostly had a few fishing boats and were temporarily assembled by fishermen. /
Their randomness was relatively strong, and their sustained development ability was very weak.
The spoils of robbery were all squandered by them, not used to enhance their own strength.
When they encountered transport fleets with stronger escort capabilities, they could only be helpless.
But as the saying goes, a small boat is easy to turn.
In the current special circumstances, amateur pirates could instead achieve rapid transformation.
As for the once powerful pirate gangs, transforming them was almost impossible.
The sea areas suitable for fishing in Mannia Sea were basically the territorial waters of surrounding countries.
When pirates switched to fishing, they would inevitably occupy the territorial waters of various countries.
As long as they were active at sea, various forces could not sanction them.
But for the seafood caught by fishermen to be converted into cash, they had to land for transactions.
Pirates landing for transactions were like big moving targets, and it was completely unfeasible.
Professional pirate gangs could only communicate and negotiate with Liu Kai Xuan through various means.
They hoped to seek a certain space for their development through negotiation.
Unfortunately, Liu Kai Xuan had no room for compromise on this matter.
The only way left for you is to surrender obediently and accept reform.
Those who are unwilling to surrender will be killed without mercy!
