Chapter 208 Cultural Issues

Lison: "Jeanna, this is..."

Jeanna: "I don't know if the black-haired dog-headed people have gone crazy these three days. They have started to arrest women in the border areas on a large scale for public interrogation. Anyone who answers a question incorrectly will be whipped with a whip, at least ten times."

As Jeanna took out the photos she took during her trip, Lison was incredulous at the scene in the photos where one after another female black-haired dog-headed people were tied to wooden stakes and then whipped with rattan.

What is the situation in the country? Does King Junwu really not know anything about the situation?

Arresting women in public for interrogation, and torturing them with whipping...

Does King Junwu want the women in his country to rebel collectively?

Lison: "Do these black-haired dog-headed people know that they are also born from their mothers? Treating women like this..."

Jeanna: "There is a famous saying in the world that if the needle cannot prick your flesh, you will not feel any pain."

Lison: "So it feels good to whip women outside with a whip made of vines?"

Jeanna: "This is an important reason why the Gaomu Kingdom hates our country so much."

As a female member who participated in the special work on the southern border of the Gaomu Kingdom, Jeanna knew very well why King Junwu of the Gaomu Kingdom hated the Nigan Empire.

It's very simple, cultural reasons.

The incompatibility of patriarchal society and matriarchal society, and even the strong conflict in fundamental concepts.

In addition, the black-haired dog-headed people have been stubborn since ancient times, so that today they can't accept the history of being defeated by a country that practices a matriarchal society and has a large number of female people on the streets.

Not to mention that the women of the Nigan Empire are generally stronger than the men of the Gaomu Kingdom, especially the priests of the Nigan Empire.

This is absolutely impossible for all the men of the Gaomu Kingdom to defeat, and there is absolutely no chance that they can continue to stand.

Just Lisen's Aunt Hedy, even if she only used that ring-handled straight-blade broadsword, the black-haired dog-headed man of the Takagi Kingdom would not have any good results. If she cast a spell on her knife and produced some kind of spell effect, the black-haired dog-headed man would probably have to think about how to have a complete corpse.

In short, conflicts in cultural traditions often turn into incompatibility between the two countries. The hostility and slander of the Takagi Kingdom eventually ushered in the revenge of the Negan Empire.

That's right.

Jeanna was able to trade on the southern border of the Takagi Kingdom, and even improve the knowledge level of the rebels in the Takagi Kingdom. All of these activities were tacitly approved by the high-level officials of the Negan Empire.

Of course, the reason why the high-level officials tacitly approved it was because of the Queen of the Negan Empire. After all, everyone knows that Her Majesty the Queen is not deaf. How could there not be a special advisory group to answer the questions she wants to know?

Especially the Takagi Kingdom is full of discrimination against women from top to bottom, and all kinds of vicious remarks against women. As long as you look carefully, Her Majesty will definitely not miss it.

Lison: "If our Queen hears it..."

Jeanna: "Your Majesty will not have anything to say if she knows. After all, as long as these women who are whipped do not realize that they can stand up and resist, they will not be able to escape the fate of being whipped in the street for generations. Of course, the person they can't trust the most is every man they can come into contact with."

Lison: "It's a patriarchal society, right? There is basically no solution to this problem. It seems that only our country has a feminist society in the world, a country dominated by female members. If I remember correctly, it seems that even the demons are a patriarchal society."

Jeanna: "So, some things can't be solved by saying that we are pitiful or understanding."

Regarding the behavior of the Takagi Kingdom, Jeanna didn't want to say too much. After all, this is an internal problem of the alien forces.

And Jeanna didn't want such a problem to be properly solved.

Otherwise, how could she continue to make money from the pockets of the black-haired dog-headed man?

The black-haired dog-headed people are not stupid, not barbaric and stupid, how can everyone continue to exploit them?

Otherwise, it is the Orchid Republic. All citizens of this country can read and write, and there is no shortage of mathematicians, so it is difficult for Nigan to make money from the Orchid Republic.

But then again, the black-haired dog-headed people treat the women of their own country like this. Do the women of this country really have no awareness and know how to resist?

Regarding Jeanna's question, Nagamasa, who finally got more tasks assigned by his new leader, one of which is to shelter and treat women whipped by vines, has a relevant answer.

Because they did not get permission from the men in the family, they inquired about things outside without authorization. It is normal to be whipped, knowing but not reporting, and gossiping about each other in private to cover up...

If it were him, Nagamasa, he would directly use a red-hot iron bar to mark it.

Yes.

Jeanna is absolutely right. In the world, when it comes to gender inequality and domestic violence against women, the Takagi Kingdom is definitely among the top.

Moreover, this leading position is based on the fact that all men in the country believe that women must be inferior to others, and men can beat and scold women at home at will.

However, Nagamasa now has no ability to continue to promote such a view. He even has to secretly treat injured female citizens to recruit them and fight together for the cause of resistance.

After all, Nagamasa has discovered a problem now. The resistance army is a little short of manpower. If some female members are not recruited to take charge of logistics, there will definitely be problems with material production. Of course, he will definitely not allow female members to touch any type of weapons and equipment to ensure that they become unstable factors.

After all, Nagamasa also knows the truth that weapons in hand will make people want to kill. And letting a group of guys who don’t know what weapons and equipment are touch related things will only create greater trouble and danger.

As for training them, at least let them know that the muzzle of the gun can’t be pointed at themselves?

Sorry, even if Nagamasa saw that the female people he secretly treated were in so much pain that they couldn’t scream, and he collected them in his underground safe room, he still wouldn’t consider letting women equip weapons to participate in the battle like the Krurod Empire.

For no other reason, they are too weak, so weak that they can’t adapt to the battlefield environment at all. You know, even for male black-haired dog-headed people, the machine guns of the supervisory team can make them fight well. If they are replaced by women...

It’s better to shoot them all.

Obviously, Nagamasa knows that there are female soldiers in other countries. At the same time, he knew more clearly that the Crurod Empire, where he had left his footprints and back, had professional female soldiers.

Fortunately, he was lucky and didn't meet them.

Otherwise...

Many of his comrades had fallen in front of female soldiers, and even those comrades were ashamed to lift their heads.

Being defeated by women in public is a shame, a shame comparable to being skinned alive in the black-haired dog-headed people's society.

In other words, Nagamasa, a disloyal minister who wanted his leader to suddenly disappear at any moment so that he could sit on the throne of the leader openly, naturally came up with an idea of ​​how to arrange female members-let them be fully responsible for agriculture and handicrafts.

As for men, naturally all of them acted as soldiers and were sent to the most urgent battlefields first. Especially heavy machine guns, this thing...

How to say it?

It's all because of the cheap women in the Nigan Empire.

These profiteers who deliberately raised prices didn't want to make the life of the rebels easy at all, resulting in the heavy machine guns that Nagamasa himself had to be responsible for 12 soldiers.

There was no way.

Nagamasa tried his best.

But heavy machine guns with an empty weight of more than 50 kg are really the most powerful weapon to deter the enemy infantry on the battlefield against the tyrant.

Even if the thing Nagamasa tinkered with can only fire about 200 rounds per minute, it still has to use a 30-round magazine as a feeder. But Nagamasa himself knows that the heavy machine guns used outside basically use ammunition belts, which are extremely fierce. But he has no skills, and even does not have enough suitable technicians. How can he easily catch up with the more powerful countries outside?
