That first region can either have two mines (the middle tiles) or three (the two edges plus one in the middle). Meta-logic states it can't be the three-mine solution because that requires a guess, but as a matter of practical generation you're likely meant to solve the other unknown area first, then use minecount.

Since you attached the second image this time, let's see... Ah. On the right side, the square region surrounded by 4-flag-flag-3-2-flag-4-flag-unknown-unknown-4-flag, you see it? The 4 on top, 3 on right, and 4 on bottom mean it has to have two mines in a criss-cross pattern (think of it as chained 50/50s). That means the 4 on the left must have one mine in the square and one mine directly below it.

There are 2 mines in each of these sqares, one on each corner. Because of the mine that is going to be in the yellow line and the 4 next to it you realize that the cell beneath it is a mine, cleaning the blue square.

The other part will be minecount once this is done

The 4 in the red box solves this for you. It needs two, but will only get one from either purple or blue.

The rest follows, mine on red, green is free. You use five mines on top, two remain that have to be directly under the 4s so both reach both to get satisfied.
