My arms and legs were also bruised a bit, but it’s not serious, and they are all scarred now.”
Li Didi waved his hand and said.
"Then don't be careless. Find Mr. Wei later and ask him to take your pulse to see if there are any injuries to the internal organs!" Jin Feng explained.
"Yes, thank you sir for your concern!"
Wei Wuya is now focused on the experimental field, but not everyone can see him. Ordinary patients cannot see him at all.
But if Jin Feng opens his mouth, Wei Wuya will definitely give Jin Feng some face.
Li Didi did not reject Jin Feng's kindness. He bowed gratefully to Jin Feng and then said: "Sir, Your Majesty, should I report to you first the situation on the plateau?"
"Let's go in and talk," Jin Feng led Li Didi into the courtyard.
Li Didi did not dare to walk side by side with Jin Feng. Instead, she wisely took a step behind and followed Jin Feng and Ninth Princess into the study.
"Sit down," Jin Feng motioned for Li Didi to take a seat.
If only Jin Feng was there, Li Didi might have sat down, but the Ninth Princess was also present, and Li Didi didn't dare to make a mistake.
He rejected Jin Feng's kindness with his hand, then lowered his head and said: "Sir, I want to apologize to you first! You asked me to go to the plateau to investigate the situation on the plateau, but I failed to complete the task."
Jin Feng did not answer, but motioned to Li Didi to continue.
"He is just the envoy of the Black Tiger Tribe. In fact, there are many tribes on the plateau. I know more than twenty of them by name. According to my plan, I will go to at least a dozen tribes and pick the most suitable one from them.
to cooperate.”
Li Didi continued: "But we were chased by the Goshawk tribe just after we arrived on the plateau. We didn't have time to contact other tribes, so we had to bring the people from the Black Tiger tribe over."
Before going to Tubo, Jin Feng had a conversation with Li Didi and told him that the main goal of going to Tubo was to analyze the situation on the plateau and find a suitable tribe for trade.
Although Jin Feng has never been to the plateau, he can guess the situation on the plateau and knows that the tribes on the plateau have little to gain.
Therefore, Jin Feng never thought about making money from the plateau through trade.
The so-called trade is just an excuse to fund a tribe to contain the Goshawk tribe and prevent the Goshawk tribe from pacifying the plateau.
With the funding from Sichuan and Shu, as long as the sponsored tribe is not too weak, it will not be a problem to stop the Goshawk tribe for a year or two.
After a year or two, Jin Feng is confident that it can develop, and the Goshawk tribe is not afraid.
As long as he delays for a few more years, when Jin Feng pacifies the Central Plains and Jiangnan, he will go to clean up places like Dangxiang and the Eastern Barbarians on the plateau.
To complete this plan, the choice of collaborators is very important.
After all, the plateau is too far away from Sichuan and Shu. If Jin Feng wants to finance it, it will not be easy to transport supplies at once. If the collaborators are too weak, they may not be able to handle the Goshawk tribe.
But if the collaborators are too strong, with Jin Feng's support, they might become the second Goshawk Tribe.
No one likes to train white-eyed wolves, and so does Jin Feng.
He didn't want to see the Goshawk tribe wiped out and a tribe appear that was more ambitious and powerful than the Goshawk tribe.
From this aspect, Li Didi's mission was indeed not very successful.
However, Jin Feng also knew how difficult it was to go to the plateau as an envoy.
Li Didi and the others are very different from the locals on the plateau in terms of appearance and accent. It is impossible to infiltrate into Tubo quietly. They will be discovered when they meet people on the plateau. It is also difficult to contact too many tribes.
Disaster.
So Jin Feng did not rebuke Li Didi, but asked: "What's going on with the Black Tiger Tribe?"

"The Black Tiger Tribe was the third largest tribe on the plateau before. Now after Gada's tribe was wiped out by the Goshawk Tribe, it is the second largest tribe." Li Didi replied.
"Gada's tribe was destroyed?" Jin Feng asked.
He was the one who ordered Tieniu to hunt down Gada in the first place. After Gada died, he no longer cared about it.
Now I heard news about the Gada tribe again.
"In order to pacify the plateau, Gada used very cruel methods, and massacres often occurred. After his death, the tribes that he had oppressed attacked in groups under the call of the Goshawk tribe."
Li Didi said: "When Gada came to Sichuan, he brought the most elite troops with him. Faced with so many attacks, he did not last long before surrendering."
"It's so overwhelming that everyone pushed him down," Jin Feng lamented: "When Gada committed evil, he didn't know if he would have thought about the day when his people would be enslaved."
"Sir, Gada's people are not as simple as becoming slaves." Li Didi sighed.
"oh?"
"Gada was too cruel to other tribes at that time. After his tribe surrendered, these tribes killed all the men in the Gada clan and made human skin drums, and the leg bones were made into drumsticks!"
Li Didi said: "As for the other men and women in the tribe... their lives are worse than death!"
When Jin Feng heard this, he couldn't help but fell silent.
Even the Ninth Princess frowned.
The plateau is still in the slave age, and those who are defeated and captured will become the slaves of the victor.
This is a custom that has lasted for thousands of years, and the people on the plateau are also used to it.
But this was the first time the Ninth Princess had heard of slaves being treated like this.
Just thinking about it makes my hair stand on end.
In his previous life, Jin Feng had heard of this terrible bad habit on the plateau, but that was before the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it was an exception.
It was unheard of for Jin Feng to treat men from a clan like this.
Li Didi always felt that the Dangxiang people treated slaves very cruelly. He had thought more than once that when Jin Feng occupied Dangxiang in the future, he would definitely go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to settle accounts with the Dangxiang nobles who had abused him and his sister.
But compared to the Gada tribe, Li Didi suddenly didn't hate the Dangxiang people so much.
"This is why I must pacify the plateau!" Jin Feng said with emotion.
In fact, from an intellectual point of view, the plateau is poor and backward. After the plateau is pacified, Dakang still has to provide funding and support, which is simply a thankless effort.
Therefore, Tie Shixin expressed his incomprehension to Jin Feng many times and suggested that Tibet should only be defended and there was no need to pacify it.
But Tie Shixin's proposals were rejected by Jin Feng and Ninth Princess.
Due to the influence of his previous life, Jin Feng believed from the bottom of his heart that Gao Yuan was also a member of the descendants of Yan and Huang.
He also did not allow Dakang's territory to be smaller than the motherland in his previous life.
On this point, she coincides with the Ninth Princess.
The Ninth Princess was born into a royal family, and the education she received since she was a child was to open up borders and split the land. She wished that the territory of Dakang would be as big as possible.
Especially after Jin Feng popularized the concept of the earth to him, the Ninth Princess wished that the entire earth would be prosperous.
Therefore, the Nine Princesses fully support Jin Feng's decision to incorporate Dangxiang Dongman and Plateau into his territory.
