"I asked around, and the people captured in your Great Jin Dynasty are all refugees. The Great Jin Dynasty suffered natural disasters, and there were many refugees. They had no food, were tricked onto the ships, and no one cared for them." This is what the foreigners learned from other miners while they were mining.
"None of our people speak the Central Plains language except me. We can't ask too many questions. If we slack off, we'll be beaten and starved. It's very difficult for us," the foreigner explained laboriously in the Central Plains language.

It's likely that far more than two hundred people were initially lured in, and after such a long period of torture, probably less than half of them would survive.

His injuries have healed, and his skills have returned to full strength. With the poison and muscle-relaxing powder he carries, he is certain to succeed as long as he operates properly.
"Great! Thank you for your help. We know the way and are familiar with the island's terrain. We'll lead the way for you." The foreigners said they had been captured for more than three years, and during those three years they had secretly familiarized themselves with the island's terrain in preparation for their escape.
This finally came in handy.
