Chapter 899 Reminder From the United States

Tanura Point Port, the busiest oil export port in the world, transports a large amount of oil in Saudi Arabia to the international market 24 hours a day. ? 一???A novel?????????????

In Cape Tanura, there are ten large outbound ports, and each outbound port can berth multiple super tankers at the same time.

Millions of barrels of crude oil can be transported out of here every day. Every day, various large oil tankers from all over the world stop here. You can often see oil tankers with a full load of more than 100,000 tons, even if they are full. 10,000-ton tankers are also very common here.

The busyness of the port, because of the drop in crude oil prices, has led to a sharp increase in the workload of the port, and the transportation and delivery of crude oil is almost uninterrupted for 24 hours.

Many oil tankers from all over the world are still waiting to load crude oil at peripheral berths.

The cheap oil price has caused all oil-importing countries in the world to start to increase their crude oil imports.

Even though it is already four o'clock in the morning, the lights and people walking around in the port are no less than the busiest day.

However, all the people here today never imagined that a huge disaster was about to befall this place.

In the distance of the port, in the dim outline of the city, some people are looking at the entire busy port from a distance.

On the rolling hills in the distance, several black figures are adjusting the instruments around them under the cover of night.

The same picture appeared in another port, Saudi Arabia's second largest crude oil export port - Vraj Port.

In Saudi Arabia, some suspicious figures also appeared on the outskirts of several oil fields, and they were also debugging some equipment.

In the city of Riyadh, the brightly lit Saudi palace, the bright lights, never go out, the huge manor palace, the super luxurious layout. In the field of global luxury, it is also the top.

Known as the most luxurious palace in the world, it is also the most prominent symbol of the Saudi royal family.

Next door to Saudi Arabia, Yemen on the other side is like the strong gap between the royal courtyard and the beggar's ruined temple. Under the flames of war, Yemen is full of ruins.

Compared to the luxury of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is really like the sense of sight of the emperor and the beggar.

But in this ruins, at four o'clock in the morning, everyone in the entire Middle East is asleep,

Missiles one after another suddenly jumped up from the ruins under the night.

On the ground shrouded in black, more than two hundred two points suddenly appeared, the tail flame of the missile. Brings intense light. The surrounding night was briefly driven away.

Over the cloudless sky of Yemen, there are more than two hundred bright spots. At an extremely fast speed, it climbed into the atmosphere of hundreds of kilometers.

Far away in the Pentagon in Washington, USA, a short siren broke the calm of the Pentagon's underground headquarters.

At the moment over the Middle East. An American warning satellite happened to be in the vicinity, and the optical sensor on it quickly captured the tail flames and bright lights produced by more than 200 missiles when they were launched.

This alert system has been in use from the Cold War period to today. It was originally used to warn the Soviet Union of intercontinental missiles and tactical missiles.

After the end of the Cold War, the U.S. military still used this system and kept operating around the world.

After the early warning system detects the tail flame and light of the missile, it will notify the early warning center on the ground as soon as possible.

The operation of the entire system took only ten seconds, but when the alarm sounded, the staff of the Pentagon's early warning center just checked the information and photos sent back by the satellite routinely.

In the 21st century, although this system is still in operation, the United States, which has no obvious enemies, is more vigilant against North Korea. For other places, it only maintains a level of alert that is known and understood.

It's just that after the staff opened the news routinely, they were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly pressed the economic button to let their chief come over immediately.

In the operation log of the warning satellite he turned on, a large piece of photoelectric light was clearly captured, and so far it was precisely locked to Yemen.

Not one or two missiles, but hundreds of missiles, and the height of these climbs is also higher than that of ordinary ground-to-ground short-range missiles.

The early warning satellites are still tracking these missiles, and a large amount of data is continuously transmitted to the ground.

When the chief of duty of the early warning center rushed over, the ballistic calculations had already been completed.

After seeing the content of the report handed over by the staff, the chief on duty immediately picked up the phone. Although the attack came from Yemen, the direction of the attack was Saudi Arabia, and had nothing to do with the United States, but more than 200 missiles appeared in one breath, definitely not no big deal.

Moreover, there are many important military bases of the US military near Saudi Arabia. If these missiles fly randomly, that would be fine.

According to the analysis results of the data, the ballistic heights of these missiles are all different. The ballistic heights of the highest batch of missiles are all close to the outer atmosphere. Such a high ballistic height can completely strike a target a thousand kilometers away.

And among these missiles, there are still a batch of flight trajectories and trajectories, all of which are consistent. The ballistic computer immediately gave the result. According to the calculation of the height and arc of the ballistic trajectory, the target of the strike is Riyadh.

The targets of other missile strikes were all quickly calculated, and they were all aimed at all the industrial and oil lifelines in Saudi Arabia, not even the capital city was spared.

At this time, the Americans had no time to think about where so many missiles came from Yemen, and the entire Pentagon was immediately alarmed.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Carter was called up by the phone just after falling asleep. When he heard the news, his first reaction was: "Have you notified the Saudi side and all our military agencies in Saudi Arabia immediately?"

"Already notified, but it's too late..."

After hearing the content of the phone call, Carter couldn't care less about other things. Saudi Arabia is the most important ally of the United States in the Middle East. Compared with the value of Israel, the United States values ​​Saudi Arabia as an ally more.

At the thought of more than two hundred missiles aimed at the heads of his allies, Carter lost sleep in an instant.

Pack your bags and head to the White House as soon as possible.

In the White House, the **** hadn't rested yet, and when he heard the news, he also looked stunned.

Just like the news Carter had received, it was too late to contact the Saudi Ministry of Defense now.

These missiles are not those intercontinental missiles, and they still have a reaction time of about 20 minutes. For missiles with a range of less than 1,000 kilometers, it takes two or three minutes from lift-off to landing.

When he received the news, the missile that hit the target closer had already hit the ground, and it was too late. (To be continued.)
