Chapter 109 Slavery [Map 8]

Yonglu 4 (1561) November Hakata, Nakko-gun, Tsukuba

"Kamiya, are those narrow-minded people slaves?

"That was Otomo's slave, captured by the allies of Ryuzoji Temple, Takahashi and Akizuki."

There was a slave.This is the first time I've seen a slave in my life since I was reincarnated.No, I've never seen a slave before in my life.When I went to Sakai, I don't know if it was a coincidence, but I didn't see any slaves.

Besides, when I started going to the battlefield, the Neko army didn't capture slaves on the battlefield.Well, maybe it was just occasionally around me.So this is the first time I've seen a slave.

Ah, it was around the border with Tsukigo last month.

"Yes, Otomo invaded to attack Akizuki, who woke up and recaptured the old territory, or Takahashi, who rebelled and turned to Maori, but Otomo was defeated in retribution."

Late last month, an alliance of Maori and Otomo clashed across the Koishihara River near the border with Tsuki-gun in Yasugi County in Tsukuba. Otomo lost when another Ryuzoji army squadron bypassed the Koishihara River and put a spear in it.

Otomo, the warlord whose name is known there, was also a fierce battle that killed several people.Takahashi must have been desperate to show his loyalty to the Maori he had turned back, so that Otomo wouldn't take back the old collar he had recaptured.

But Otomo is Tachibana Michi Snow, is it still a doorway lookout?I don't think it was Otomo's catastrophic defeat because the Doorway Yankees were fighting, but what about Toko there?Naomi Nagashima of Nagashima Nagashima, Ryozoji Temple, who seems to be able to compete with the snow on Tachibana Road, is still 23,4 years old.

I think it was Naomi Nanajima who put the Yokohama in the Otomo Army.Or was the command and control of Takahashi Forensic Species good?Well, the Maori coalition will win.

Besides,

Even before Neko, catching slaves in battle was like the right of the winner of the battle.However, since I took my seat at the Lord, I have officially notified you of the ban on random capture, so there is no longer any situation in which innocent people can be seized while entrusted to war.

Maybe, but....

However, among those taken prisoner by forces hostile to Neko, there is slavery in the name of labor for those who do not obey Neko.Forced labor in a mine for three years.After that three-year period, it is the law that you can return to your hometown and become a Neko people.

In my time, this law was applied by the Tajima Yamana general.It has about 150 people.Ashigaru Miscellaneous Soldiers who served in Tajima Mountain Names as Inaba people, and those who served in Goto and Urakami as masterpieces and prefects, are treated as Neko's people, so they are separately framed.

Huh? Isn't that a double standard?It's going to be a problem!After all, how about forced labor as a slave just because you are a people in Neko territory and you have taken captive miscellaneous soldiers who have no choice but to serve in the enemy?

I live in the territory with my family, so don't you think I'll buy a grudge from them?I don't like that.Because I aspire to be a generous, tolerant and just lord.I'm only aiming for it.In other words, it's an effort goal!

Effort target. Yeah, good word.

So, even if you're a slave to a prisoner of war, you're paying your salary properly.Every working day comes with 5 sentences!Well, it's like a sparrow tear.In addition, one sentence will be collected per meal.

However, at the end of three years of labor, even those who have saved three sentences, and those who have scattered money into favorites, are they accumulating about one sentence?I pride myself on being conscientious because I should save more money than a prison in the future.

Once the labor is done and you throw a sentence out of the mine, you can change jobs from a slave to a bandit or bandit.In the meantime, if you have at least one sentence, can you manage to feed and connect until you find food for life?

Besides, it doesn't matter if you become a regular mine worker.Rather, as for me, I hope so.Recommended because regular mine workers earn 10 times more than slavery!

Looks like you're tempered by a slave.

"So, where will that slave be sold?

"The destination of that slave will probably be the light of the continent."

"Ming? Not savage?

Nothing special, no barbarian ships come into Hakata.

Heh, it's not barbaric.Speaking of which, was Hakata's port shallow and barbarian ships unable to enter the port?So, even though it was far from Hakata, the largest city in Kyushu, it should have entered Hirado and Nagasaki, where there were natural harbours, right?

Recently, Hirado said that there had been a disturbance between Japanese and Nanbarians, so will the Nanbarn ship withdraw from Hirado and come to Nagasaki?I thought there was also a name called Yokoseura.

I mean, you also exported slaves from Japan.It's the first time I've heard of it. Are you going to take a Japanese boat and make it a sailor?

Speaking of which, Hakata doesn't have many Nanbarians.

"Since there are few converts to Christians in Hakata, there are no missionaries in the accompanying heavens."

I see. Hakata is a wealthy city, so you don't have to hold fast to the faith of emerging religions that have newly entered from other countries because of the poverty of eating and not eating.Poverty and despair are the greatest mariages to faith.

Well, I don't know what Mariage is.Were you married in French?Montpette quattro mariage?

"There are already eight million gods and Buddha in Japan."

It's on the left. Dealing with the Nanbarians is fascinating to us, but exotic religions can be smelly. "

Well, Buddhism is originally an exotic religion, but let's keep it quiet.Because I aim to be an air readable politician!

"I also hear Otomo and Arima are selling slaves to Nanbarians in exchange for gunpowder."

Ah, I knew it!Even so, did the shrine look at the Nanbarians with spit on their eyebrows?How many slaves were there in a barrel of gunpowder?Isn't it a very fun and pleasant world....

Long live Nippon, the slave-exporting power and warring power, at the end of the century!Not at all... well, it's 1561 in the A.D., so it's a little past the middle of the century, not the end of the century at all.However, I think the Sengoku period is the end of the century, due to the silk of words.

I don't care about human rights, but selling the same Japanese abroad is an unacceptable outrage for my compatriots.If you're going to sell it off, you want to set an example by taking the initiative to sell it off from your own family, right?

Wouldn't it be foolish to sell a slave in another country in Japan to a foreign country beyond the sea?I think so. In this era, most people see other countries in Japan and foreign countries across the sea as similar things.

But it wasn't my line of reasoning that belonged to the Maori who were trying to sell prisoners who were soldiers of the Great Friends to the Japanese as slaves!But you can't help it, can you?This is the result of the war.Long live the double standard!

But isn't that strange?I'm sure you know that selling prisoners to foreign countries as slaves is not a good idea.Mainly because they are promoting development within the Māori territory in harmony with my policies, I have no more manpower than I have.

Is that what this is?The three of Ryuzoji Temple, Akizuki and Takahashi, although they are under the Maori umbrella, are in a position like allies and subordinate daimyo who are not fully Maori, so it would be reasonable to entrust them with the treatment of prisoners who are spoils of war.Do you feel the same way about Maori and Mimura?

Speaking of this battle, it seems that Māori only sent a small number of military commanders, and Māori may not be able to speak.

Well, if I can buy it, I'll buy it for you.Miners and dredgers don't have to worry about a lot of people.Neko territory is suffering from a chronic shortage of manpower so that cats can help themselves.

I don't mean to spread my hands so unplanned, but it's strange, right?
