Upon hearing this, Chen Qingzhu looked at the short man kneeling on the ground:

"Are you a citizen of Yangfeng Town? How many Japanese pirates are there in Yangfeng Town now?"

Previously, when Zhang Liu went to Zhenjiang Prefecture to deliver a letter, he had already found out the scale of the number of people who came ashore to commit crimes for Xiang Lao Er, which was about 130 people.

Therefore, in her original plan, these people would besiege Cihang Temple together, and all the Kun Daoists in the temple would participate in the battle.

Because with her ability at the fourth level of Qi Refining and without spiritual awareness, she can only manipulate twelve or thirteen objects at the same time.

The accuracy of the attack is not high. If you want to cause large-scale casualties, you can only manipulate objects that are relatively large and heavy, and attack when the enemies gather to maximize the killing effect.

With the rich combat experience of those pseudo-Japanese, after being attacked one or two times, they would begin to disperse and dodge, and even break out from the four gates.

Everyone must participate in the battle and set up some traps to kill all the Japanese pirates while minimizing casualties on our side.

However, as soon as these Japanese pirates rushed in, she discovered that the numbers were wrong.

There are only more than sixty people, which means there are more than seventy people somewhere else.

Since she was the one who lured those people here, she naturally had the responsibility to kill them all to avoid bringing disaster to the innocent people in the surrounding villages and towns.

"I am a bun seller in Yangfeng Town. My name is Wu Sanjin. I was forced by the Japanese pirates to lead them to Cihang Temple. I hope the gods will forgive me!"

Chen Qingzhu waved her hand. She thought that ordinary people were just leading the way to save their lives, so why would she care?

"Just tell me how many Japanese pirates there are in Yangfeng Town now? What is the situation?"

She needed to determine whether the remaining Japanese pirates were scattered in several places or gathered in Yangfeng Town before she could decide what to do next.

Wu Sanjin recalled it and said uncertainly:

"They sent half of the people up the mountain, and the other half, who were larger, stayed behind in Yangfeng Town."

He also talked about the situation in which Yangfeng Town was attacked by Japanese pirates at noon.

After hearing the latter, Chen Qingzhu's expression suddenly became gloomy.

This time she miscalculated.

Based on her understanding of these Japanese pirates, in order to prevent the government from discovering their whereabouts, the pirates, whether real or fake, would choose to wander around and commit crimes.

They would not commit crimes continuously within a range of a hundred miles, so as to avoid being caught up by government troops when they stopped at the next place to rob after committing a crime in the previous place.

As the secondary capital, Nandu City’s armaments and soldiers’ combat effectiveness are much stronger than those of the local army.

More than a decade ago, a group of Japanese pirates who were so bold as to plunder near Nandu and try to attack the city of Nandu were eventually besieged by the Nandu defenders. Only a very small part of them escaped, and the rest all died.

This was a heavy lesson for the Japanese pirates, and it made them stay away from the Nando City.

Zhenjiang Prefecture is located in the northeast of Nando, and the border is about ninety miles away from the mountain where Cihang Temple is located.

According to common sense, the huge wealth hidden in Cihang Temple far exceeds that of ordinary towns and villages. There is a group of young and beautiful Taoist nuns who have no fighting power. If Xiang Lao Er's team sets this as their target, they can reap a lot of rewards without any effort.

What's even better is that Cihang Temple is located in a remote area. As long as they don't plunder other places and leave quietly, they will not attract the attention of the Nandu defenders at all.

She thought she was considering the pros and cons from the perspective of these Japanese pirates, but she still underestimated their greed.

Unexpectedly, the Cihang Temple alone could not satisfy their appetite. They would rather be discovered by the Nando government troops than rob one more town.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Qingzhu ordered:

"You go wait outside the temple first. I will take people to Yangfeng Town to rescue the people there later."

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, God!"

Wu Sanjin went out with gratitude.

Chen Qingzhu then raised his voice and said:

"You can open the door now."

The doors were then all opened.
