507. Chapter 35 (1) Doubts
What puzzled Lodi the most was the exact whereabouts of Semonov.
Now Semonov's whereabouts have become a mystery, Semonov, who once thought he was completely in control, quietly disappeared from everyone's field of vision again, and in the past few days and nights when he led people to follow this escort team back and forth, Semonov is likely to rush to another unknown place through other passages to hide, maybe run abroad, maybe sneak back to the area controlled by the Saiyans, and this escort team still went to the deep mountain base after the truth was revealed, And also got the response of the SWAT brigade, which must have been agreed in advance, what are they, the Orientals, risking their lives to run to the war-torn land? And with such an eye-catching stand-in swaggering through the market, Lodi's brain was originally very good, but on this issue he fell into this dead knot and could not be untied.
"If Semonov didn't follow this team back to the base, then those of them who ventured to this base must have another mission, and this mission is still very urgent, bringing a fake double is nothing more than a move to divert our attention, as you said, this trick is very successful, Semonov is likely to use this time to transfer his hiding position again, and it is likely that he has returned to his own nest to hide, At present, the arrest of these dignitaries of the southern government is very tight, he may really want to disappear for a while, China's operation provides him with a good cover, but China's willingness to do so must be an exchange of interests, we don't know what their private deal is, in addition, Lodi, there is another one I don't know if you have thought about it? ”
After listening to Lodi's general account and his almost chaotic thoughts, Gru expressed some of his own judgments, and Gru, who was not fully involved in the operation, may have a relatively clear and simple mind.
"What do you mean?"
Lodi asked, looking at Grufa beside him with a somewhat suspicious look.
"If Semonov was really rescued and picked up by the Chinese side and hid in the consulate, then maybe Semonov has not left the consulate at all, I think the Chinese side will not easily give up this hot chess piece in its hands before getting the expected benefits, the Chinese side is in control of Semonov, it is equivalent to holding a trump card, you can have multiple choices, if you fail to reach the expected agreement with the government of the southern country, it is also an excellent choice to hand over Semonov to the coalition forces, but I don't think the Chinese side will do this."
Gru's words provided Lodi with another way of thinking, and he listened to Gru's analysis, tilted his head and was stunned for a long time, and then he said:
"Gru, what you said makes sense, you hurry up and find me a car, I want to go back to the city, I want to go back and look at the surveillance footage of these days, if it is really like what you said, Semonov is still hiding in that consulate, this is relatively easy to do, I don't believe that he can always hide in it without showing his head, in addition, you have to immediately scatter detectives on the line we walked before, these Chinese personnel risked their lives to rush to that base, it will never be so simple to visit here, they sent so many professional special soldiers to act together, It must be for an important matter, I suspect that they may have received the tacit approval of Milo, in exchange for benefits, the Chinese side obtained some scientific research equipment and research results in that base, the purpose of these people's trip is to escort and transfer these top-secret materials out of the country, judging by the current situation, it is only a matter of time before the base is abandoned, and the Kovo region is also out of the control of the federal government, these Chinese personnel rushed here at this juncture, there must be a huge interest appeal to drive them to go, Therefore, we still can't give up tracking these people, you know, every asset that flows out of the base every minute is a loss of our wealth, we can't let it go, but you have to remind your subordinates to pay attention, once you detect their whereabouts, don't fight with them easily without absolute certainty, keep an eye on these people, if they really come to escort some top-secret materials, then it doesn't matter whether their actions are aimed at us or not, whether it has an impact on us, We're going to have to do everything we can to stop this deal from happening, or they'll be too happy, and we're going to let those people know that this isn't the place for them to stand on their feet. ”
Lodi said and smashed the field tent in front of him with hatred.
Gru nodded:
"You're right, they're a little too arrogant, and we should make them suffer."
Gru's aggressiveness is aroused.
"I also want to tell my family, so that they can also be prepared, let Beasley mobilize all the forces at his disposal, and do his best to verify the specific movements of Semonov and that team, and once the direction of those people is circled, we will have a three-way attack, and I will wipe this unknown escort from this earth."
Lodi was talking about Shatov's secret home base, and he was redeploying a bigger game of chess.
Lodi and Gru exchanged words, and almost deduced that the purpose of the latter part of the trip was not the same, but due to the different focuses, they still focused on patrolling Semonov's traces, they thought that these Chinese personnel had come for a purpose, and guessed that it must be a highly confidential and important matter, but they did not think deeply, for the members of the Shatov group, the capture of Semonov and the full seizure of control of the Kovo region were much more important than anything else.
The air service base of the Mi Army located in a certain country on the European continent is approaching dusk, but the integrated combat command center specially set up with an eye on the war in the south is still extremely busy, and staff officers and technicians at all levels are shuttling back and forth between several rows of consoles full of computers, busily busily, and the various information and data on the war in the south that have been collected and monitored through various means are reflected on the huge electronic screens on the front wall after these technical analyses and the screening and deletion of the staff officers. From there, you can clearly see at a glance the real-time dynamics of all the flight missions and all the fighters deployed at various air bases on the European continent and all the fighters that are ready for war.
A data analyst who was monitoring the dynamics of the fighter in front of the computer was suddenly attracted by a sudden flash of light in front of him, and the range of the light point did have a fleet that was performing a mission, but those crews were running regularly, and this sudden cursor was obviously not one of the crew members who were performing the task, worried that the uploaded data was inaccurate, the analyst made further confirmation to the war department and the dispatching command center, and the reply was that everything was normal. There was no incident of the fighter being shot down and crashed, the data analyst carefully checked and proofread the information transmitted by the cursor code, and the results of the verification surprised him, because he was worried that his judgment was wrong, he called several other analysts and staff officers and their department head, Major Henry, after many repeated comparisons and confirmations, several people came to a common conclusion after intense discussion, this sudden appearance of the point of light represents the F117 that was shot down not long ago, But when they were about to report further to their superiors after confirming the facts, the cursor disappeared from the computer screen again.
These analysts and staff officers did not dare to slack off, and quickly sorted out the data collected and the analysis they made, and reported them to the competent departments at higher levels.
"This thing is very strange, it appeared in a location very close to the place where it crashed, and it is now the focus of our air strikes, as the mountainous area that was once the most important research and development base in the south, has been under the control of the government and military of the southern country, according to intelligence, they are preparing to evacuate in the near future, and it is likely to abandon there."
In a small conference room, a department chief officer wearing the rank of major general from the integrated command center was reporting the sudden phenomenon to several other commanders in the room, and in front of the conference table, on several display screens, senior officials from the European Marine Theater Command and the national defense headquarters of the United States were listening carefully to the analysis and statement of the technical chief named Kobe Bryant through real-time online transmission.
"Before the plane was hit and crashed when the device should have self-destructed inexplicably failed to start, the positioning device on the plane after a short period of work, also lost contact with us, at that time our judgment was that the technical personnel of the south destroyed these self-defense devices on the plane, but the designer of the aircraft was still on the navigation component on the plane at the beginning of the design, according to our requirements embedded an independent positioning device, in order to be in the event of the failure of other equipment on board, This stand-alone system is still working to help us determine the position of the aircraft and conduct accurate and timely search and rescue of the pilot, after the crash of the aircraft, due to the failure of the self-destruction and positioning devices on the plane, our relevant technicians remotely activated the backup positioning device, but did not return the data we needed after activation. ”
"For the occurrence of this situation, our technical experts had several inferences at the time, one is that this device has also been destroyed and can no longer work for us, and the other is that due to environmental interference, the crash location of the aircraft cannot receive the instructions we transmitted, resulting in the failure of remote start, and then there is that this set of positioning device has been transported away from its initial falling position before it was started by us, and the position it is located after the transfer has a strong shielding ability, blocking the normal connection of the signals of the two parties."
The entire conference room was silent, and everyone listened with bated breath to the technical officer's briefing.
