Because she had been to a mine with the army in her previous life, Lin Jinghan had some understanding of mines, but it was only a theoretical understanding and she had never actually worked there.
Judging from the results of the survey, the mine here has a good trend and the iron ore contained underneath is very rich. The area where the Jingnan Army is mining is not the place with the most concentrated iron ore.
Although she knew it, Lin Jinghan had no intention of telling Sikong Zhan about this discovery. They were not that familiar with each other yet.
Besides, she was only a 16-year-old girl. If she knew too much, wouldn't that arouse suspicion? When she wasn't strong enough, hiding her incompetence was the best way to protect herself.
"Princess, um..." Seeing Lin Jinghan put the things away, Doctor Ran couldn't help but ask.
"This is a little gadget my master gave me. I took it out to play with it when I had nothing better to do." Lin Jinghan looked calm and collected. She put the item away in her sleeve and waved her hand, saying, "Let's go back. It's time to prepare for the acupuncture. Besides, we can't help much here."
The two of them had not walked far when suddenly, there was a loud bang that shook the ground several times!
"What's going on?" Doctor Ran Xiao supported Lin Jinghan's wheelchair while looking back at the mine.
The vibration did not last long. Sikong Zhan and Mu Wenyao looked at each other and walked quickly towards the direction of the vibration.
"Princess, should we go back now?" Doctor Ran asked worriedly.
"Wait and see." Lin Jinghan looked in the direction of the vibration worriedly. The sound was very much like a mine collapse. In this world, there were no advanced instruments to help. If a mine disaster really happened, then nine out of ten people inside would die.
They were all soldiers defending their country! She had been in the military for many years and had a natural fondness for these soldiers. She really couldn't bear to see them die in a mining accident.
However, the situation was unclear at the moment, so she naturally couldn't follow rashly. What's more, she needed a wheelchair to move around, so it was better not to cause trouble for the time being.
Sikong Zhan and his companions hadn't gone far when the Jingnan Army rushed over to report: "Your Highness, Crown Prince, the mine suddenly collapsed, countless brothers outside were killed or injured, and the brothers working in the mines are trapped inside, their lives uncertain!"
The two rushed to the scene of the accident and saw dust flying. The Jingnan Army was trying their best to rescue their injured companions. The scene was thrilling. Fortunately, the Jingnan Army was well-trained, so there was no chaos.
Sikong Zhan issued several orders in quick succession: set up special tents for the wounded, call in all the doctors in the army to treat the wounded, and mobilize the entire Jingnan Army, some to dig in the mines to rescue people, and some to deliver life-saving medicine...
When Lin Jinghan rushed over, she saw Sikong Zhan directing people to carry out rescue work in an orderly manner.
She immediately asked Doctor Ran to go and rescue the wounded, and she pushed the wheels of the wheelchair with her hands, struggling to get closer to Sikong Zhan.
"Your Highness, don't rush into the mine to dig people out. The mine has collapsed and the situation is unclear. Any rash action may cause a second mining disaster!" Lin Jinghan was eager to save people and didn't care about anything else. She expressed her concerns all at once.
"Second mining accident?" Sikong Zhan frowned and looked at Lin Jinghan.
The Jingnan Army is good at marching and fighting, but they are not good at mining. Although it is inevitable to encounter situations where roads need to be opened during marching and fighting, there are a few people in their army who are quite good at it. However, in such a short period of time, these people are only half-baked at mining. They cannot understand the iron ore here very well, which is why this mine collapse occurred.
Sikong Zhan himself knew nothing about this. Although he had made up for some mining knowledge in the past few days, he only had a superficial understanding. King Jingnan, who was always in charge of the overall situation, said that he did not understand the professional terms used by Lin Jinghan.
"What I mean is that if the mine collapses and we continue digging rashly, it is very likely to cause another collapse." Lin Jinghan explained quickly while racking her brains to recall the knowledge about mining.
Now it was time for Lin Jinghan to give her acupuncture. It was only the second day, and the injury on her knee was still very serious. The pain made beads of sweat appear on her forehead, but she not only didn't even make a sound, she didn't even show a trace of pain.
At this moment, compared with the Jingnan soldiers whose lives are in danger, what is her pain?
Sikong Zhan nodded, thinking that what Lin Jinghan said made sense, and asked, "Is there any good way to rescue the people without causing a second mining disaster?"
"We need to explore the terrain here carefully and find the most suitable place for excavation. Since you have started mining, you must have people specializing in exploration, right?" Because she was enduring severe pain, Lin Jinghan's voice trembled slightly.
Because she tried her best to restrain herself and not let her injuries cause any more trouble here, Sikong Zhan was fully focused on the mining accident and did not notice her abnormality.
Several exploration personnel had already been here directing the digging and rescuing people. Sikong Zhan walked quickly up to them and asked them in detail.
After discussing for a long time, they finally said helplessly:
"Your Highness, we've only been studying this area for a few days and aren't familiar with the terrain. Honestly, rashly digging to save people could potentially cause the mine to collapse further. However, time is running out, and we simply can't find a better way to save them besides digging right here."
Sikong Zhan listened to professional terms for a long time and finally got such bad news. For a moment, his head was as heavy as a bucket. Looking at the wounded soldiers being carried out one by one, his eyebrows were squeezed together.
Suddenly thinking of Lin Jinghan, he turned around to look for her, only to find that Lin Jinghan was no longer there.
"Where is the princess?" Sikong Zhan did not ask anyone in particular. The people around him were stunned, and then they all said that they had not seen the princess. Everyone was busy rescuing the wounded and had no time to care about Lin Jinghan sitting in a wheelchair.
Mu Wenyao, on the other hand, had just accidentally glanced at Lin Jinghan and said, "It seems she's heading towards the wounded camp."
Sikong Zhan said nothing and walked quickly towards the place where the wounded were placed.
At the wounded camp, Lin Jinghan was directing the Jingnan Army to set up temporary stretchers and simple beds, while helping with pulse diagnosis and acupuncture. Because she was in a wheelchair and the bed had not been set up yet, she could only bend down with difficulty to treat the wounded.
However, minor injuries were handed over to the doctors and medicine boys in the army, and she would only take care of the more difficult injuries herself.
The only thing worth being happy about was that because many people were saved, the energy of the medical space was finally restored. In order to maximize the effect of the medical space, Lin Jinghan used energy to replenish the medical space with good things while continuing to treat illnesses.
Shiqin had already rushed over and was following Lin Jinghan, wiping the sweat from her forehead from time to time.
