"Smack!"

The whip was thrown down, and the emaciated slave fell in response, but even though the slave was scarred, he still did not dare to wail. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Don't be lazy!"

The slave owner with a hideous face looked at the slave with a leather whip with unkind eyes, and the leather whip flew in the air, and the crisp sound was so harsh.

"The master spares his life, the master spares his life, the master spares his life!"

With a look of horror on his face, the scarred slave struggled to get up from the ground and staggered back to work.

"A lowly slave who refuses to work hard without a whip and whipping!"

When the slave owner saw the slave's performance, his face suddenly showed a smug expression, and then he touched the pet dog in his arms, and prepared to walk outside the courtyard with his head held high.

In the eyes of the slave owner, the lowly slave in front of him was not even as good as the pet dog in his arms.

In today's Kyushu Continent, many nobles still keep many slaves in captivity, and these slaves are extremely humble, even inferior to pigs and dogs.

In the face of these slaves, the slave owners had the right to kill and take them, and they did not have to bear any legal responsibility at all.

Slaves are not only cheap, but also hard work, which has led to the fact that for more than a thousand years in Kyushu, even if many people with lofty ideals advocated the abolition of slavery, it was still not completely realized.

Powerful aristocrats and slave owners were the biggest obstacles.

"Bang!"

However, just as the slave owner turned around and was about to leave, the courtyard gate was suddenly violently kicked open, and five heavily armed armor soldiers were seen running towards the slave owner with great momentum.

"Who are you who dare to trespass on a private house!"

After seeing the five armored soldiers, the slave owner's face suddenly turned pale, and instead of the slightest look of fear, he yelled at no one.

Although the status of a slave owner is not very respected, he is also a very powerful local tycoon, and he is not afraid of people in the government.

"The Admiral decreed that all slave owners who owned slaves must regain their freedom within five days, and then go to the government to receive compensation. ”

"It's the sixth day, and you still haven't released your slaves, you've violated the new law, and we have the right to detain you!"

The chief of the army took out a notice, shook it in front of the slave owner a few times, and then waved his hand for the two armor soldiers behind him to step forward and arrest the slave owner.

"I have a reputation, how dare you arrest me!"

When the slave owner heard this, he immediately became furious, struggled desperately, and cried out hoarsely.

It's not that this person is unaware that the government has promulgated a new law, but this kind of decree has been promulgated by the government in the past, but it has been obstructed in many ways, and the new law has always ended without a problem.

There were many times, and due to the change of government decrees, the prestige naturally became weaker and weaker, so when the new law abolishing slaves was promulgated again, the slave owners did not pay attention to it at all.

And according to the laws of the Song Kingdom, the punishment is not as good as the doctor, and the courtesy is not inferior to the concubine.

Although the slave owner was not a prominent person like a doctor, he also had a reputation for himself, so he was naturally not afraid of the officers and soldiers in front of him.

Mo said that the slave owner did not do anything very contrary to the law, and even if he did, with his fame, he could offset part of the guilt, which seemed to be fearless.

"Hmph, the general is in Shangqiu, and everyone in Shangqiu knows that the general will do what he says, but you ignore the general's decree and dare to shout here!"

"Take this person away and detain him according to law!"

Wu Chang looked at the clamoring slave owner, snorted coldly a few times and ignored this person, and let the two armor soldiers take him away.

It was only at this time that the slave owner's face changed, and his body struggled violently, but there was no way to break away from the armorer's seizure no matter what.

The abolition of slavery was the first decree issued by General Huan Chang.

Since Huan Chang exterminated all the bandits in the Song Kingdom as a rebellious general, he began to work on the matter of changing the law and strengthening the country.

Even with the support of the Song Duke and the Song Dynasty, Huan Chang still prepared for a whole year before he began to promulgate the new law.

Before the new law was promulgated, the Duke of Song also promoted Huan Chang's official position to a general, in charge of all the soldiers and horses of the Song State, and was one of the most powerful people in the Song State.

Due to the fact that the government has changed its decree in the past, this has led to the fact that every time the government promulgates a new decree, the people will not take it to heart at all, thinking that this decree cannot last long, let alone obey it attentively.

In order to restore the prestige of the government and establish his personal prestige, Huan often erected a log at the gate of the city, telling the people that as long as someone could move the wood to a position of 200 meters at the gate of the city, they would receive a hundred taels of gold.

This kind of thing is very simple, and adult men can easily do it, but no one stepped forward to move the wood, because everyone did not believe in the government, let alone that they could earn a hundred taels of gold so easily.

Later, a thin sixteen-year-old boy, in order to raise money for his mother's medical treatment, moved the wood with the mentality of trying, and actually got a hundred taels of gold.

By this time, Huan's image of saying what he said had been imprinted in the hearts of everyone, and the prestige of the government had also been enhanced.

Therefore, when the slave owner remembered that this decree came from the general Huan Chang, his face changed greatly.

"The two of you will gather all the slaves here and take them to the government to register them. ”

Captain Wu glanced at the emaciated slave, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes, and then commanded the other two soldiers.

The thin slave who was grinding suddenly had an unbelievable glint in his eyes after hearing Captain Wu's words.

However, the captain ignored the scarred slave and strode towards the door.

Because, he still needs to do a lot of the same thing today.

At the same time, many of the same things happened inside and outside the entire Shangqiu City, and many nobles, as well as powerful and slave owners, thought that the new laws promulgated by the government this time were just for show.

As a result, many did not regain their freedom to their slaves within five days.

When the heavily armed armor soldiers stormed into these people's houses, they suddenly woke up, but they were still a little incredulous.

In this process, some high-flying nobles and powerful people did not take the armor soldiers in their eyes at all, let alone be taken to the official mansion by the armor soldiers.

Those who go too far will even send home guards to wound the armor.

In this way, these people seemed to have stabbed a hornet's nest, and soon a large army of heavily armed soldiers surrounded these noble mansions and arrested all the people involved.

If there are still resistors, kill them on the spot.

Within a day, the entire Shangqiu City set off a monstrous wave, and many nobles and heroes were taken to the official mansion by surprise.

The people looked at the armor soldiers coming and going, escorting the nobles away, and they all felt like they were in a dream.

At this moment, there is only this thought left in everyone's hearts, that is: Song Kingdom is going to change.
