The people assigned here were mostly citizens because most of the slaves (unless they had important jobs in the Town infrastructure) had been sent out.
That said, legitimate citizens like them, whose sole job in this war was to pass on resources—possibly to weaker people—was below them. The only fun part of this was when someone tried to desert, and they'd kick them back.
Technically speaking, only the owner of the body could pay for the usage fee of the array so even if they kicked them at the center of the circle, they wouldn't necessarily be transported. However, they could certainly continue pushing and bullying them enough until they wouldn't have any other choice—and that was quite fun.
Other than that, they grumbled a lot and mumbled about how they'd demand bonuses from the Lord when the war was over.

BOOM!
No, they'd need 100x more remuneration!!!
"AHH!"
"What!!"
