In the evening, the emperor sent a message saying that the "thing" Ji Yingying wanted was ready and she could just take it with her when she left tomorrow.
That night, Ji Yingying went to bed early for the first time in her life, and got up early the next day, ready to set out as the imperial envoy.
As soon as she went out, the prince was already waiting for her.
"Hey, why is it so early, Prince?"
Prince: It’s still early. He wanted to leave yesterday.
[Host, it's rare for you to get up so early.]
【Alas, what a miserable life. 】
When heading north, people usually go on horseback. Ji Yingying doesn't know how to ride a horse, so she just rides a bicycle. As soon as she puts the bicycle out, Xiangxiang says, "Host, we have an electric bike. Do you want one?"
How much?
【Forty thousand taels of gold.】
[Get it.] Ji Yingying replaced her bicycle with an electric bike. Having an electric bike was much better than riding a horse.
"Your Highness, you ride your horse and I ride mine, let's ride together, hehe!" Ji Yingying also wore a helmet and a windproof suit.
"You horse..."
"What's up? Does Xiaocheng look good?" Ji Yingying patted the electric car with a happy look on her face.
[Host, be careful. The Emperor will ask you to make it later.]
"Impossible. If we can't even make a bicycle, let alone an electric car, would it have electricity? No, I don't know how to make one, and I'm actually afraid of it."
[Yeah, that electrical thing is hard to make, you don't know how to do it.]
I certainly don’t.
"Come on, let's go."
Heading north, because the speed was fast, Ji Yingying simply let the prince ride with her on the electric scooter.
It only took the two of them half a day to reach the north, but the army and followers might not arrive until tomorrow.
Ji Yingying instructed them to leave at the normal time before they set off, and to put safety first.
"We're here already?" Ning Qingran couldn't believe it. She looked at the electric scooter in front of her and then at the electric scooter behind her. She really couldn't believe it at all.
The entrance to Youzhou was covered with heavy snow. Ji Yingying found a ruler and pressed it down to measure the depth of the snow.
Ten meters deep is very deep. Not many people come out, but you can occasionally see one or two people coming out.
"Prince, let's set up the tent here. This is a high spot."
No one came and no tents were delivered, so we could only determine the location.
"Okay, let's plan it." If there is no one, then I can only do the work myself.
"Let me see what the situation is like in Youzhou right now." As soon as the drone came out, the prince became interested and stayed beside Ji Yingying, watching her operations.
The small plane flew out and soon saw the surrounding scene. The snowstorm was very severe.
Some houses were covered, some were not, but it was all white, and there was no one to be seen.
[Xiangxiang, can this thing be controlled remotely?]
[Then you might as well take out your microphone.]
[Oh yeah, I forgot about the microphone.] Ji Yingying immediately took out the microphone and speakers and moved the speakers further away.
"Hello, hello, hello..." The voice was quite loud, and Ji Yingying was satisfied with it.
"Everyone, is there anyone alive? If so, pick up anything you have and shake it. We'll rescue them immediately."
...
...
After shouting three or four times, one was finally lifted up.
"I don't know how many people there are, Prince. My car can't get in." No one has arrived yet, come here...
"Hold on a little longer, we'll soon be able to clear a path to rescue you..." Ji Yingying shouted three times, and the other party's "flag" was lowered.
[Why does it feel nothing like the snowstorms shown on TV? Those snowstorms aren't like this. You can still get in.]
"You're crazy! You're comparing real life to TV? TV has special effects, but here we have them! This is a real snowstorm. The roads are buried. It's so thick, it's almost reaching me."
[Hey, luckily it's still snowing. If the air pressure were any lower, it would be a thousand miles of ice, and everyone here would be frozen solid.]
If the snow stops, I'll be worried about the ice.
"I really want a snowplow!" Ji Yingying sighed and prepared to set up a tent with the prince. This tent might not be useful.
If the snow is heavier at night, it will directly crush the mountain.
"Prince, Your Highness!" The army is coming.
"Someone is coming?" Ji Yingying was shocked. She didn't expect that someone would come so soon before dawn.
As soon as she saw people coming, Ji Yingying could no longer sit still and immediately began to make arrangements, some shoveling snow, some preparing accommodation.
"Everyone, let's unite as one to fight the snowstorm. The people who are suffering are the people of our Tianyou Dynasty. We are soldiers..."
Ji Yingying's little mouth chattered a lot of red language, which made everyone's blood boil.
He works very hard and diligently.
It was almost time for breakfast, but the soldiers had arrived overnight, so we had to eat something better.
"Everyone, we are the logistics department. We need to keep the soldiers fed. Come on, cook these."
It was rice, half a pig and fifty cabbages. Ji Yingying asked the logistics department to cook it directly.
Then she hid in the kitchen to help, and after cooking, she brainwashed the soldiers while they ate.
"Everyone, please have a good breakfast, eat enough and keep warm."
After eating, she gave everyone some hot packs, all of which she had exchanged at the mall. When others asked her about them, she just made up excuses.
Ji Yingying asked the group that had rested well to continue working and make sure to dig the road through.
After working for two days, we rescued more than a dozen people and received more corpses than living people.
The snow stopped, the wind died down, and the work went on more quickly.
Ji Yingying also had it sealed off and not allowed the water to flow out. If it did, she would have to worry about the virus.
It's very painful for the survivors to watch, after all, they are so scattered, with only one or two people left in each family.
Youzhou took three days to clear the snow and also brought in rice, shelters, etc.
"Prince, now that the snow has stopped and we've cleared the snow, we just need to figure out how to recover. Oh, and there are still many villages around that need to be visited."
Ji Yingying looked at the topographic map, and then ordered people to organize and visit in small groups.
All the victims were concentrated in Youzhou City.
Because the houses collapsed, we can’t rebuild them now, and refugees are brought back from other villages every day, so there’s nothing we can do.
On that day, each team brought back some people. The number of military casualties was very small, only one or two, but many civilians died.
"Yingying, everyone is now concentrated in Youzhou City, but we don't have much food left. What are your plans next?"
[Good fellow, you’re the prince, and you ask me?] Ji Yingying was annoyed. She didn’t want to be the heroine.
But God made her the heroine.
"Prince, let's do this... the sun should come out tomorrow." It's been half a month, the Lantern Festival is over, and the sun is about to come out.
"I'm researching houses tonight and finally making one that won't collapse under pressure."
