Chapter 320: Memory Loss
People are old and fine, and it's not easy to fool.
The Federal Führer looked at Generalissimo Lagrange and muttered inwardly.
In fact, at the very beginning of this matter, the Federal Führer knew that it would be difficult to deal with it, but since the matter had come to this point, it was definitely not possible to retreat, and there was only one way to go to the dark.
It would be more cost-effective to offend Generalissimo Lagrange than to drag it out until the whole situation has completely deteriorated.
"Don't you want to cooperate?"
"It's not good. ”
"Our time is very precious and cannot be wasted on meaningless consumption. ”
Wang Yi was the first to speak, he looked at Generalissimo Lagrange, and said with some dissatisfaction.
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, a little bit of a desire to go into battle shirtless.
"What?!"
"What do you want to do?!"
"I warn you, it's illegal!"
"What is it to intern and restrict the movement of an old citizen of the Federation?!"
Generalissimo Lagrange saw that Wang Yan wanted to be rude, and immediately became vigilant.
Among the few people present, the head of the federal federation must be thinking about his identity, the supreme commander is considered a military person, and he can't do anything too much to attack, Song Qi is really a girl, it is estimated that it is difficult to do it, and the only person worthy of the old marshal's vigilance is Wang Yi.
After all, Generalissimo Lagrange remembers very well that between himself and Wang Yin, it is a bit of a festival, if Wang Yang really wants to take revenge for personal gain, he has no temper, at most he can only shout twice.
But if he doesn't do anything, that's not his style.
Even if it is a pig, the pig that is killed will scream a few times desperately, in order to resist the injustice of fate, let alone people.
"Why are you so excited?"
"I just want to help Your Excellency the Generalissimo and loosen my muscles. ”
Wang Yan walked up to Generalissimo Lagrange and said with an expressionless face.
"No!"
"You're not!"
Generalissimo Lagrange roared.
What is the situation in front of him, he can see it clearly, and naturally he will not believe what Wang Yan said.
In view of the previous contradictions, and the problems of the present situation, the fact that Generalissimo Lagrange decided that these men were intended to be against him, and that he had been caught here in some indescribable way, is in itself very telling.
"Your Excellency, what exactly do you want to do?"
In the end, the old marshal decided to give in.
People are under the low eaves, and they have to bow their heads.
He was not facing the enemy, there was no need to play any heroic and unyielding games, in fact he had never experienced such a scene before, he was now just an old man who had retired from active service and only enjoyed the treatment of a generalissimo.
"Professor Lan Xuelong!"
"We need to thoroughly understand the situation between you and Professor Lan Xuelong!"
At this time, the head of the Federation immediately stated his true purpose.
Obviously, now that Generalissimo Lagrange has bowed his head, it is necessary to ask a clear question about this matter.
They don't have much time to waste here.
"Professor Lan Xuelong?"
"Are you finally going to do something to him?"
Strangely, when Generalissimo Lagrange heard the name, he was not overly surprised by the name itself, but he only felt a little surprised, and felt that the Führer had asked for this name, which made him feel a little more than expected.
"The federal government will not allow the existence of places outside the law. ”
"I think Your Excellency Marshal is very clear about this, and this is what you have always maintained. ”
"As the head of the Federation, I personally hope that His Excellency the Marshal will be able to know everything and say everything. ”
"After all, this is a matter of great interest to the entire Federation. ”
The Federal Führer's reaction to Generalissimo Lagrange was also somewhat surprised.
He originally thought that the old marshal should be more reluctant about this matter, but he didn't expect that he didn't seem to be very persistent on this issue, and even felt a little relieved, as if he had been looking forward to it for a long time.
This incident made him feel a little strange, but he held back and didn't ask why.
After all, the most basic rule of negotiation or questioning is not to let the other party think that you do not have the slightest inside information, in which case, he can start talking nonsense about something.
"Well, if you're serious, then I'm willing to talk about it. ”
The old marshal carefully observed the expressions of the head of the Federation, Wang Yi and the others, and then nodded in agreement.
Could it be that the old marshal and Professor Lan Xuelong are not all the way?
When Wang Yi saw this result, he felt a little surprised.
It stands to reason that the contact between Professor Lan Xuelong and Generalissimo Lagrange was much more than usual, but it was not so easy to observe.
If it weren't for the decision of His Excellency the Federal Führer to thoroughly investigate everything about Professor Lan Xuelong, and conduct a thorough investigation from the vicinity of all the people related to Professor Lan Xuelong's secret experimental base that had been exposed, it would have been impossible to discover the relationship between the old marshal and Professor Lan Xuelong.
Because of this, Wang Yi subconsciously believed that the relationship between Generalissimo Lagrange and Professor Lan Xuelong might be deeper than they saw, and perhaps the cooperation between the two sides was also very close, and there was even some kind of interest bond that connected them.
But at this time, seeing that the old marshal agreed to their request so happily and was willing to tell about the matter between Professor Lan Xuelong and him, Wang Yan was a little incomprehensible, maybe the situation here was really a little different from what he imagined.
In any case, the old marshal is willing to speak, and this is a good thing after all.
Although Wang Yan has been prepared to be rude, he may not really be willing to beat or abuse an eighty-year-old veteran, this kind of thing is still a bit of a drop after all.
"The relationship between me and Professor Lan Xuelong began 60 years ago. ”
"At the time, I was just a budding young officer. ”
"At that time, no one thought that I would become a star in the army and go all the way to the position of generalissimo. ”
"Until one day, an old man who was about 60 years old came to me directly. ”
“......”
Recalling the events of that year, Generalissimo Lagrange's eyes were full of a different kind of look.
Obviously, what happened back then should be unforgettable for him.
The Federal Führer, Wang Yi and others were listening carefully to Generalissimo Lagrange's reminiscences of the past at this time, and the focus of their attention was whether Professor Lan Xuelong had already begun to attack the entire federal government and the military.
If Professor Lan Xuelong really did this, then it is conservatively estimated that there are about how many personnel in the federal government and military are controlled or influenced by him?
If they didn't figure this out, they really couldn't do it right away.
After all, if you are not careful, it can easily lead to a major event that will subvert the entire Federation, which is not to be careless.
"I've used some of the experiments he provided, some of which have worked well and some of which have failed. ”
"But anyway, he didn't have any other requirements for me at that time, and some of the experiments he provided did allow me to go faster and farther on the road of growth. ”
"But I also felt that there were some problems, such as his department was too secretive, and he was a person that I couldn't see, so after I became a general, we basically broke off the tie. ”
“......”
Generalissimo Lagrange went on to tell the story of what had happened between him and Professor Lan Xuelong.
"I'm afraid that's not true, right?"
"According to our information, you have been in contact with Professor Lan Xuelong for a while now, and you have had several conversations. ”
Wang Yi immediately used the evidence in his hands to refute the old marshal's statement.
"I haven't talked about this situation yet. ”
Generalissimo Lagrange was not at all busy, and replied slowly.
"Well, I'm in a hurry. ”
"Your Excellency Marshal, you go on. ”
Wang Yan shrugged his shoulders and said.
"This time he came here to ask me ......"
"Hey, what do you want to ask me?"
"Strange thing, why did I suddenly can't remember the words that came to my lips?!"
“......”
When Lagrange Yen said this, he suddenly got stuck.
He patted his head with his hand, and suddenly showed a somewhat confused and painful expression.
"Huh?"
"What's going on?"
When the head of the federation and the supreme commander saw this, they could not help but look at each other.
The situation of the old marshal is indeed a bit surprising.
Obviously, he has already talked about the most critical issue, but he doesn't know how he became like this, as if the machine is stuck, making people anxious, but there is nothing to do.
"It seems that the memory has been tampered with. ”
Wang Yan is a person who understands, and when he saw the situation of the old marshal, he immediately had a very bad guess.
After all, he knew that Professor Lan Xuelong's secret experimental base had a portable amnestic device, which was very convenient to use.
Judging from the situation that the old marshal has shown now, he must have been erased from his memory for a short period of time, which is why this situation has occurred.
This matter is a bit of a problem.
"Strange thing!"
"Why can't you remember it all of a sudden?!"
Generalissimo Lagrange's mood at this time was extremely bad.
He kept trying to recall the situation at that time, but found that he only remembered the meeting with Lan Xuelong, but he couldn't remember anything about what he talked about.
This discovery made him feel a little frightened in his heart.
You know, human beings have an inexplicable fear of things they can't control.
Especially his own memory, it is actually missing, which is really a very terrifying thing for an old marshal.
"What should I do?"
Several people immediately looked at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Originally, they thought that something should be very stable, but it was done like this, and it can only be said that Professor Lan Xuelong is really cunning and cunning, and he did not leave them the slightest opportunity to take advantage of it.
What should I do?
Looking at the Generalissimo Lagrange, who was in pain, several people suddenly fell silent.
Obviously, this is an era of wits and courage.
Professor Lan Xuelong has a technological advantage, and his technological crushing of others is cross-generational.
Faced with such a situation, the head of the Federation and the Supreme Commander found it difficult to deal with it, after all, they had never encountered such an opponent, and they didn't know how many hole cards Professor Lan Xuelong still had in his hand?
"At least, we now have a good enough reason to do something to him. ”
"Erasing the memory of a federal dignitary, the generalissimo of the military, is enough to constitute a crime. ”
From another angle, Wang Yi put forward another impact of this incident.
They want to deal with Professor Lan Xuelong, in fact, it is just a crime prevention measure, after all, they have not found any criminal methods of Professor Lan Xuelong before, and his research base is still an official federal agency, and it is not an illegal existence, but now it is different.
Since Professor Lan Xuelong had amnesticized Generalissimo Lagrange, it was of a different nature and constituted a serious crime.
Although Generalissimo Lagrange has retired from active duty, he is still an important figure in the Federation, so his memory is naturally a strategic resource that is protected by federal law.
"Legally, it's very difficult to determine. ”
"But the status of Generalissimo Lagrange is very important, so it is very bad to act on his memory, and from the point of view of federal law, we have enough reasons to do it against him. ”
The Supreme Commander also agreed with Wang Yi's proposal and felt that it was a very good suggestion.
It is not possible to be nameless, but Professor Lan Xuelong sent the handle into their hands, isn't this a wish?
"But will we be able to determine where Professor Lan Xuelong is hiding?"
"If you can't find his lair, it's pointless to talk about these things. ”
Song Qizhen reminded everyone.
This question is the one that everyone is most concerned about.
After all, as someone who was over one hundred and twenty years old and had been running a secret research base for eighty years, Professor Lan Xuelong certainly knew what the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit were.
In fact, Wang Yan and the others were very suspicious that Professor Lan Xuelong's hiding place was far more than three, and even an immeasurable number, and it was very likely that he was in some special subspace, that is, the so-called Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
Because of this, it was really not easy to find Professor Lan Xuelong's hiding place.
"It's also useful to be able to find his research base. ”
"If he's just left alone, what kind of trouble do I think he can make?"
Wang Yi's understanding of this matter is obviously at a higher level.
No matter how much ability Professor Lan Xuelong has himself, as long as he cleans up all the forces around him, I believe that he will not be able to make any big waves by himself.
"I vaguely remember some of his old bases. ”
"I just don't know, are you still using it?"
At this time, Generalissimo Lagrange on the side interjected.
As someone who had contact with Professor Lan Xuelong sixty years ago, Generalissimo Lagrange did know the location of the base back then, but he had been disconnected from the other party over the years, so it was not very clear about the subsequent situation.
But in any case, the old marshal was very annoyed and a little frightened by Professor Lan Xuelong's erasure of his memory, so at this moment, it was natural to stand firmly on the side of the head of the Federation and make his position clear.
"It's easy, and we'll be able to confirm it right away. ”
The Führer asked the old marshal, and after getting the general information, he immediately began to search for it on his walls.
With the order of the Federal Governor, a projection of the current situation of the area immediately appeared on the wall.
It can be seen that this is another secret base hidden in the mountains, which is completely in line with the planning habits of important scientific research bases under the political environment of the year.
"This is it, yes. ”
Generalissimo Lagrange looked at the projection on the wall and said with great certainty.
He had been there more than once, so he was very familiar with the local situation.
Although it has been many years, the changes in the local topography and landform are not very large, so you can see it at a glance.
"Search for local transportation conditions. ”
The Federal Führer nodded, and then gave a new order to his dedicated system.
Wang Yan watched it from the side, and couldn't help nodding secretly, saying in his heart that the Federal Head's thinking was really very clear.
To check whether a base is still in use, it is most convenient to explore from the transportation aspect.
After all, no matter how complete the facilities in this base are, the demand for certain raw materials and living materials always needs to be supplemented from the outside world, so directly searching the local transportation situation, you can find out the specific operation degree of this base, and even judge how many people can work in this base.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a series of data analyses to appear in the projection on the wall.
"This should be it!"
"The scale of this base is huge, and there are more than 500 people working in it!"
"I think that maybe Professor Lan Xuelong has other experimental bases, but if this base can be maintained for so long, it will definitely have a great impact on him. ”
"And we have a good chance of finding other bases through some clues in this base. ”
The Federal Führer looked at the analyzed data and said to everyone.
"So what are we waiting for?"
"Now it's time to get started!"
The old marshal clenched his fists and said with some eagerness.
After discovering that his memories had been erased by Professor Lan Xuelong, he became a little furious.
God knows what Professor Lan Xuelong talked to him about at that time?
If it was that kind of very important secret, wouldn't he be in trouble?
The most important point is that he doesn't know anything about the situation at that time, which is the most terrible thing.
"What do you think?"
The head of the Federation looked at Wang Yan and asked casually.
"it!"
"It's all at this time, what other polite words can you say?"
Wang Yong and the Supreme Commander looked at each other and expressed the same opinion.
At this time, there is only a hard top to rush up.
Any retreat may put the entire federation in a situation from which it will never recover.
