Chapter 482: God's Turn
Just half an hour later, the four-color single-star flag of the Hejaz Kingdom was raised at the port of Jeddah.
The port was actually home to a brigade of Najd's troops, as well as a few small warships and a fleet of fighters, and it was the main port on the Red Sea, but unfortunately under the crushing of Faisal II's mighty Restoration Army, the vast majority of the people chose to surrender except for a few who put up weak and futile resistance.
After all, it has only been more than 30 years since the fall of the Hejaz, and everyone knows very well who is the main owner here. Since the 10th century, the House of Hashemite has been the hereditary Sharif of Mecca, the hereditary emir, the hereditary guardian of the Kaaba, the true thousand-year-old master, Hussein. Ibn . Ali was the leader of the great Arab uprising. It was only because he resolutely opposed the Balfour Declaration and wanted to unify the Saracen world that he angered the Britons, and then connived at Najd to seize their territory and let the Saracen world continue to be torn apart.
Therefore, in any way, Faisal II returned to restore the country with an aura of justice.
Of course, the main thing is that they were frightened by the powerful army of His Majesty the King, there were three aircraft carriers alone, dozens of other warships, countless tanks, tens of thousands of troops, planes in the sky covering the sky and the sun, the people of Jeddah Port have seen the world, this place is constantly shuttling warships from various countries every year, what kind of fleet has not been seen?
They knew at a glance that although the fleet brought by His Majesty the King could not catch up with the United States, at least at this time, it would be difficult for Britain to make such a fleet.
The people of Jeddah Port are also aware of current affairs, they have not resisted any of the great powers for hundreds of years, and in this case, it is still a fart!
In this way, Faisal II suffered less than ten casualties. He successfully captured the port of Jeddah, officially embarked on his journey to restore the country, and also captured a large number of munitions, including ten large and small warships and dozens of old British-made Meteor fighters, and took one Prince Najd prisoner.
At this time, many people who got the news were already vomiting blood.
Except for Yang Feng and Hussein, who knew the inside story, everyone else was stunned by this divine turn, Nima. Didn't you keep saying that you would go to Babylon and restore the kingdom? How did you go to the Hejaz to restore China? If you don't have such a playful person, we are all waiting for you to go to Basra and land and then let Babylon go to war, why did you suddenly change to Najd? You are a consumer fraud! How many people have voted for you!
After the initial shock passed, the whole Middle East was in turmoil.
All countries have readjusted their original strategic deployments at a 180-degree turn, and what was originally hostile has instantly become friendly, and what was originally friendly has immediately become hostile, and the armies that were constantly advancing eastward have immediately turned around and driven westward. The tanks and fighters that had been assembled to the west hurriedly moved to the east, and Faisal II, who had originally praised him as a flower, quickly changed his face and angrily reprimanded him, and he was originally wishing that he would die, but now he was regarded as a treasure all of a sudden.
All in all, one word, chaos!
Two words, it's messy!
Three words. It's a mess!
The Soviet troops, who had been massing on the Persian border, withdrew as quickly as possible, and the bald man, who had been threatening nuclear bombs, announced it in a serious manner. The Soviet government had no intention of intervening in any dispute between the kingdoms of the Hejaz and the kingdoms of Najd, but for the former Hejaz king Hussein. Ibn . His Majesty Ali affirmed his contribution to the struggle for the freedom of the Saracen nation during the First World War, and hoped that His Majesty King Najd would seriously consider the demands of the Hejaz people.
In short, this matter has nothing to do with the Soviet Union.
The Syrian army, which had also been massed towards the Jordanian border, also withdrew as quickly as possible, announced President Nasser of the United Arab States. The United Arab States will remain neutral in the war between the kingdoms of Hejaz and Najd, but still hope that the two sides will sit down and negotiate a settlement of their differences, so as to avoid the Saracen world from falling into civil war.
Well, by this time they had openly acknowledged the existence of the Kingdom of Hejaz.
These guys have long seen Najd unpleasantly, and now I don't know how gloating. Didn't you just now aggressively support Faisal II's return to Babylon? Now dumbfounded, right? Retribution, right? Deserve!
When you were in the big uprising, you hid in the back to watch the excitement, and during the first Middle East war, you still hid behind and watched the excitement, sitting on so many oil fields, making so much money every year, and hiding far away when it was your turn to fight with foreigners, and now you are unlucky, of course, we have to watch the excitement, what happened to Faisal II, the ancestors are also considered a man, even if it is him, he really sent troops to participate in the first Middle East war.
Of course, the most gloating in this was undoubtedly Kasem, when he heard the news, his whole person almost laughed, such a divine turn undoubtedly made his sky suddenly clear.
This guy is not a good bird, and after understanding that Faisal II has no interest in fighting him for territory at all, he immediately ordered all the hundreds of thousands of troops who were originally waiting in Basra to be transferred to the border of Najd, and put on a posture that was ready to fight at any time to scare the king of Najd, and even the army that was originally used to warn Persia was also transferred.
As for Persia, after understanding everything, Pahlavi also did not hesitate to withdraw his troops from the Babylonian border, and he also wished that Najd would be torn apart.
The Shiite elders of Persia were even more cheering, after Faisal II recruited a large number of mercenaries from Persia, and the thought of Shiite soldiers appearing outside the Kaaba Temple, these guys were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and even began to spontaneously prepare the next batch of reinforcements for Faisal II, in short, almost all Shiites, even those in Babylon, began to clamore for reinforcements of their former king.
And at this time, His Majesty King Saud of Najd was dumbfounded.
He cursed Faisal II and Yang Feng in his palace like a shrew who scolded the streets, using all kinds of words he could come up with, and he also donated a full 20 million dollars to the former! As a result, this bastard is now stabbing him with his money, you can't be so shameless!
Of course, the work had to be done, and the main force of the Najd army, which was being mobilized to the Babylonian border, hurriedly turned around and went back to defend the Hejaz.
He still has some confidence in the war, after all, Faisal II is such a mercenary, and he still has a population of more than four million, Faisal II has Yang Feng behind him, and Eisenhower behind him, no one is afraid of anyone at this point, and the rest is nothing more than seeing you on the battlefield.
However, at this moment, another thunderbolt exploded above his head, and the 20,000 Jordanian troops originally assembled in the port of Aqaba suddenly launched an attack on Najd, and solved a small number of Najd troops on the border in a very short time, and then attacked the Tebuk Oasis in one fell swoop.
And that's not all, on the same day that Jordan started, the Republic of Yemen, which also belongs to the United Arab States, suddenly launched a simultaneous attack on Jazan and Najran, shouting the slogan of demanding that Najd return the two places that they had invaded and occupied, as well as Abha and Yasser further north.
At this time, His Majesty King Najd was really panicked, and he realized that a conspiracy against himself had already begun, and he was in big trouble.
At this time, the Hejaz Fu****, who occupied the port of Jeddah, had already reached Mecca.
The distance between the two places was nothing more than sixty or seventy kilometers, and an army of nearly 20,000 troops, with a mechanized infantry brigade as the vanguard, in various vehicles, quickly reached the city in a fierce manner along the newly built hardened road, because the time was too short for the Najd army to be transferred here at all. After all, there are no real railways in this country, even if troops are transferred from the nearest major city of Medina, it is impossible to complete the 400 kilometers of roads in a day by car alone, and it is even more distant to transfer troops from Riyadh, and the Hijaz-Fu ****, which is advancing at full speed, can only walk from the port of Jeddah to Mecca in two hours.
The resistance of this army in Mecca was similar to that of the port of Jeddah, and the fighting was largely over when Leopard tanks and lynx infantry fighting vehicles appeared outside Mecca in the sand.
Najd defended the city by a few thousand men who had been urgently cobbled together, and a large number of them were tribal forces, armed with old-fashioned bolt-action rifles and riding their own camels, bravely attacking the torrent of steel ahead. Then they didn't fire with those Leopard tanks, and a few lynx infantry fighting vehicles rushed up and beat them all up with a single machine gun, and then they scattered in a hurry.
But there are still hundreds of people who try to resist stubbornly in the street fighting.
However, after Faisal II himself went to the Grand Mosque and had a secret conversation with the elders of the temple, who came forward and strictly ordered that no one should fight in the Holy Land, and the already trembling warriors were immediately deflated and simply came out and surrendered.
Thus Mecca re-raised the banner of the Hejaz kingdom, and the Hashemite family regained the land that their ancestors had ruled for a thousand years after thirty-four years.
At this time, the angry Johnson also found Yang Feng's door.
They are really angry, Najd is their forbidden body, it has been established in World War II, no one has dared to touch it for so many years, but this bastard actually stretched out his hand, and it stretched out so outrageously, it was simply playing rice country as a monkey, Eisenhower was so angry with him that he directly slammed the cup, if he didn't cut off his claws this time, he couldn't tell where he would reach out next time!
