Chapter 257: Terrorist Attack
In order to show that he attaches great importance to the construction of the joint venture arsenal, after the contract was signed, Crown Prince Mohammed, accompanied by Prince Walid, came to meet with Serena, and posed for photographers to take a lot of photos as propaganda materials. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Subsequently, Serena sent Prince Mohammed away along with Prince Waleed and other members of the royal family.
Wang Dong was also in the ranks, following Serena, who was in parallel with the crown prince.
Musharraf's public identity is that of a senior vice president of D&F, so he is also together, but with Prince Waleed.
The helicopter take-off and landing field was dozens of meters away, and a red carpet was rolled out.
The custom-built EH-101 helicopter that brought the crown prince over had been activated, two royal guards stood in the doorway, and the pilot was doing one last check before takeoff.
As the crown prince walked over, one of the guards raised his hand and pressed his left ear.
It's a common move, the guard must have a wireless headset, and most people are used to having headphones in their left ear.
It's just that this move aroused Wang Dong's vigilance.
This is the "King Saleh Military Industrial City", which has long been fenced off, the only entrance is more than a thousand meters away, and the nearest town is dozens of kilometers away.
What's more, there are a lot of officers and soldiers of the royal guard nearby.
What is it necessary to alarm the crown prince's personal guards?
Besides, the crown prince is about to board the helicopter, and if it is not a matter of urgency, it is not too late to wait until the helicopter has taken off to contact the guards.
Thinking of this, Wang Dong looked around.
The sky was clear, cloudless, and there were no anomalies.
It's just that the three turboshaft engines are accelerating, making a deafening roar, so that Wang Dong can't hear the other sounds.
Sound!?
By this time, Crown Prince Mohammed had stopped and was saying goodbye to Serena.
Wang Dong turned his head and looked towards the tent.
Above the tent, two white smoke trails appeared, shooting towards the helicopter landing field at a rapid speed.
Missile!?
Rocket!?
"Be careful!"
At the same time as he shouted loudly, Wang Dong dragged Serena down, and then pounced on Crown Prince Mohammed, crushing him under him.
"Boom-boom-"
Explosions rang out, heat swept in, and debris scattered like cannonballs in all directions, followed by an overwhelming cloud of sand.
The hot sensation did not go away, as if it had been ignited.
It's really lit, but it's just a coat.
Wang Dong immediately got up and took off his coat, which was still burning.
"Your Highness!"
"I'm fine, I'm ......"
"Don't get up, crawl and don't move!"
Muhammad originally wanted to get up, but as soon as Wang Dong shouted this, he immediately dispelled this thought.
Next to her, Serena had already climbed up.
There was blood at the corner of her mouth, but she didn't seem to be in trouble, maybe she fell to the ground and bit her lip when she was dragged down by Wang Dong.
It's just that the few Saudi princes who followed behind were not so lucky.
At least three were killed instantly, all by sideways helicopter debris, and several more were seriously injured and lay on the ground screaming and moaning.
"Mura!"
"I'm fine, Prince Waleed is slightly injured."
"Take the prince out of here and go to the tent."
"Understood."
Wang Dong didn't say much and dragged Muhammad up. "Your Highness, can you walk on your own?"
Muhammad nodded, although his expression was still very frightened, but he did not lose control, perhaps Wang Dong's calm performance gave him a lot of courage.
"Follow me."
Wang Dong didn't dare to delay, because it was a rocket that started to explode, and the helicopter was still burning, so maybe it would explode at any time.
The EH-101 is a three-engine heavy transport helicopter known for its safety and reliability.
After being selected by the United States to become a new generation of "Navy One", that is, a special helicopter for the president, Saudi Arabia also bought it as a royal plane.
The helicopter uses a self-sealing fuel tank that will not explode even if it is hit by an incendiary bomb.
It's just that no one dares to say that it is absolutely safe.
In the air, the sand and dust are dissipating.
Fortunately, it was not far from the tent, and the EH-101 did not explode before Wang Dong took Selina and Muhammad into the tent.
At this moment, gunshots were heard outside.
In fact, it was less than two minutes from the explosion to the time Wang Dong and them returned to the tent.
Nearby royal guards have responded, but have also been attacked.
The gunfire was dense and chaotic, but the sound of the heavy machine gun was particularly noticeable, as was the roar of the helicopter.
Wang Dong was not surprised, because the rocket fired earlier was fired from a helicopter.
Terrorist attack?
If it had been for Muhammad, the terrorists who had launched the attack would have been able to get a helicopter and would have been able to get enough vehicles.
Although the rocket hit the crown prince's plane, the terrorists will definitely kill him.
Only when the body of the crown prince is found can terrorist groups use propaganda, and it doesn't make much sense to just admit that a terrorist attack was launched.
Moreover, the terrorists involved in the attack certainly did not expect to be able to leave Saudi Arabia alive.
You must know that the military industrial city is south of Riyadh, the border is hundreds of kilometers away, and the nearby hundreds of kilometers are all deserts that are inaccessible.
Where can I escape?
There is nowhere to run.
When the Saudi military and police arrive, the terrorists will be wiped out.
Prince Waleed was slightly wounded, and was hit in the right shoulder by a piece of iron, bleeding profusely, but it was not serious, at least for the time being, and his life was not in danger.
Almost all of the Saudi officials who followed Musharraf back to the tent were wounded, and several of them were very badly wounded.
There is nothing surprising that they did not lie down when the explosion occurred.
Fortunately, they stopped at the back of the line and did not follow the crown prince, otherwise they would definitely have suffered heavy casualties.
It's just that the situation is not optimistic at all.
Outside, the heavy machine gun was still roaring, the roar of the helicopter was getting closer, and the sound of the submachine gun was getting less and less.
In order to facilitate the movement, the officers and soldiers of the guards who closely protected the crown prince carried MP5 submachine guns.
In fact, these officers and soldiers of the Guards are more like bodyguards.
Unless they received a clear warning, or were attending an official event, they wore suits and leather shoes when following the crown prince to ordinary events.
Wang Dong did not dare to hesitate, organized the uninjured people, and built a bunker with furniture and other items in the tent.
It's a tent!
Luckily, there was plenty of furniture, and it was all very sturdy.
The table is made of solid wood, and the top is nearly ten centimeters thick, and there are dozens of metal folding chairs, and the thickness of the seat surface is also a few millimeters.
In addition, the tent is large enough.
The biggest threat was the heavy machine gun on the helicopter, but there was reason to believe that the ammunition prepared by the terrorists was certainly not sufficient.
Perhaps, after dealing with the officers and men of the Guards outside, there were not many bullets left for the heavy machine guns.
