Chapter 086. Decree instruments

Right at the city gate, the threatened Ashigaru cowered.

Even with the scale of the large number of people, at this time, when he saw the low-level samurai holding a katana and still possessing the power of the Dao, his face suddenly turned pale, and he lost the appearance of righteous indignation before.

In this regard, the low-level samurai was even more arrogant: "You untouchables know that you are afraid?" The katana in his hand pointed at the tip of the nose of those ashigaru people, and his tone was even more mocking: "It's enough for Nanzuo City to send me to collect taxes, you guys had better understand that if you really annoy me, it won't be me next!"

Taxes represent the cornerstone of the country's revenue, and for any reason, failure to pay taxes and food is a very serious offense, and even if it causes a popular uprising or rebellion, the official forces to which it belongs will be extremely severely extinguished.

The tax that should be paid must still be paid, and the grain that should be paid still must be paid.

Final liquidation.

Just throw out a few scapegoats to give an explanation to the people.

But this low-ranking samurai, apparently, did not have the concept of being a scapegoat, but stood on the carriage in the middle, enjoying the awe-inspiring gaze of the ashigaru people around him, as if he were a superior person.

It's just that just behind the crowd, the wild girl on the side of the road is walking over with the ninjas, watching the arrogant performance of the low-level samurai, she can't help but clap her hands and make a loud voice: "Yes, I like your performance very much!" There was a smile on his face, but the corners of his mouth were curled with a cold feeling: "Compared to those traffic stars, your performance can be called textbook-level arrogance, I really want to turn around for you, do you know?"

Around the carriage, the Ashigaru people who were originally submissive suddenly came back to their senses: "The wild girl on the side of the road is here!" Our lord is here! Wild Girl-sama is here!"

As if they had found the backbone of the heart, they hurriedly leaned over.

There's no way, the suppression between classes is too violent, not to mention that now he is facing a low-level samurai who has mastered the power of the Dao, where do these ashigaru people dare to resist?

At most, just curse a few words viciously in your heart, as for really putting it verbally, it is indeed not that guts, after all, the responsibility of offending the samurai is very serious, if the junior samurai is really angry and pulls out a knife and cuts them, after investigation, he knows the reason, and in the end he will be imprisoned for a few years at most, and then deprived of part of his money.

It is said that it is a prison, but in fact it is house arrest, and in any case, these lower-level samurai will still be sent out, after all, they have mastered the power of the Dao, and they are all trustworthy elites in the hands of various daimyos.

When the time comes, these ashigaru people will die in vain, who will dare to really offend the samurai?

Of course.

The roadside wild girl herself is a samurai, and she is still the bloodline of the roadside family.

Although he has become a member of the family, how can he say that his own grandfather is still in the position of the sect master, just with this low-level samurai who is not even a samurai of the imperial family, his real identity is faintly half a step higher.

Even if you master the power of the Dao, what can you do? The identity is here, they are the same!

Sure enough.

The lower-level samurai's face changed slightly: "On the side of the road... Wild girl-sama?" He was born in Nanzuo City, of course he knew this abandoned and waste-like roadside son-in-law, where would he take it to heart?

The corners of his mouth seemed to curl up with a slightly mocking smile, but the katana that had been drawn in his hand was inserted back into its sheath: "It's good if you're here!" He didn't care about the ridicule of the wild girl on the side of the road at all, but said in a businesslike manner: "I was sent by Nansa City to collect taxes, and the current Eight Fan Mountain needs to pay a tax of 500 kan, and I also need to send 1 samurai and 100 people to Ashigaru to Nansa City to obey the dispatch and go to the coastal swamp to crusade against youkai!"

This was a little abrupt, and the wild girl on the side of the road raised her eyebrows: "500 kan taxes, and send 1 samurai and 100 ashigaru teams to the coastal swamps to crusade against youkai?" His face straightened slightly.

This is not just a matter of taxes, but also the conscription of the lord by Nansa Castle.

It stands to reason that as long as he becomes the lord of Nanzuo City, then when he is recruited, it is a matter of course to lead the troops to complete the task, but why was he also recruited?

At this time, the wild girl on the side of the road found that the situation was wrong, and slowly spoke, without the intention of continuing to entangle: "I remember that when I came to this fiefdom, the roadside family promised that I could be exempted from the tax burden for three years, including three years of conscription, and now it is only less than a month, why did the tax burden and conscription come?"

As his gaze looked directly, the low-level warrior who was in the carriage was not frightened in the slightest, but instead reached out and took out a scroll at the back of his waist and held it up, the corners of his mouth curled, and he said in a flirtatious tone: "I don't know what you said, but I know that Nanzuo City has already ordered it, and your taxes and conscriptions are inevitable!"

The roadside wild girl didn't continue to speak, but frowned and looked at the scroll, according to the memory, it was indeed the scroll used by the roadside family to enforce the decree in the country of Chino, which undoubtedly illustrated the legitimacy.

Otherwise, how could this low-level samurai dare to be so arrogant that even the ninjas behind him couldn't stand it!

At the city gates.

Silence appeared, but the ninjas behind the wild girls on the side of the road had cold faces at this time.

If the village elder of his roadside wild girl speaks, then the next junior samurai who will be on the carriage will definitely not last three or five seconds, and he will be disposed of by the 2 special upper ninjas and 4 middle ninjas who are already ready to do it, as well as 5 lower ninjas, and it is estimated that he will die on the spot!

It's just that the wild girl on the side of the road stretched out her hand to stop the restless ninja behind her, but slowly moved forward, came to the carriage and looked at the junior samurai who was still standing on it: "Show me the paperwork, since it's the decree of Nansa Castle, I should be able to read it, right?"

The lower-level samurai still smiled, without the slightest fear: "Of course, Lord Wild Girl, no matter what you say, you are also a samurai of the Imperial Family, of course you have the right to read the decree documents of Nansa Castle." ”

The wild girl on the side of the road took the scroll and directly tore it open and looked at the text on it: "Huh?"

His brow furrowed.

The document of the decree was true, and it was indeed necessary for him to pay a tax of 500 kan immediately, and that 1 samurai would lead a team and 100 ashigaru people would obey the order to go to Nansa Castle and then to the coastal sawas of Chino Province.

But it was precisely this real decree document that made him extremely puzzled, after all, his cheap grandfather had promised to get by, why did he go back on his word after these days?

No matter how bad Qianye Country is, it is also Qianye Country, lacking his 500 taxes and 100 ashigaru people?

PS: Recently, there have been too many things, and the update is a little slow, sorry.
