The port of Cape Tanoura, the world's busiest oil export port, transports large quantities of oil from Saudi Arabia to the international market 24 hours a day.

In Cape Tanoura, there are more than 10 large outbound ports, each of which can dock multiple supertankers at the same time.

Millions of barrels of crude oil can be transported from here every day, and every day, there are various large oil tankers from all over the world docking here, and it is common to see oil tankers with a full load of more than 100,000 tons, even if it is a full load of more than 300,000 tons, it is also very common here.

The busyness of the port, because of the decrease in the price of crude oil, has caused a surge in the workload of the port, and the transportation and transportation of crude oil is almost 24 hours a day.

Many oil tankers from all over the world are still on the berths on the periphery, waiting to load crude oil.

Cheap oil prices have caused all the world's oil importing countries to start a sharp increase in the number of crude oil imports.

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

However, all the people here today definitely did not expect that a great catastrophe was about to befall this place.

In the distance of the harbor, in the dimly lit city silhouette, some people are looking out over the busy harbor from afar.

On the undulating hills in the distance, several black figures were debugging the instruments around them under the cover of night.

The same image is seen at another port, the port of Vlaki, the second largest port of Saudi crude oil exports.

On the territory of Saudi Arabia, on the periphery of several oil fields. There were also some suspicious figures, also debugging some instruments.

In the city of Riyadh, the glittering Saudi royal palace is lit up. The bright lights are never extinguished, the huge manor palace, the super luxurious layout, and the top in the world luxury field.

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

Next door to Saudi Arabia. On the other side, Yemen is like the strong gap between the royal courtyard and the beggar's broken temple, under the flames of war. Yemen is littered with ruins.

Compared to the luxury of the Saudi kingdom, it is really like the sense of déjà vu of an emperor and a beggar.

But it was in this ruin, at four o'clock in the morning, that everyone in the Middle East was asleep. One missile after another. Suddenly rose from the ruins in the night.

On the black ground, more than two hundred two points suddenly appeared, and the tail flame of the missile, bringing a strong light, briefly drove away the surrounding night.

Over Yemen, more than 200 bright spots climbed hundreds of kilometers into the atmosphere at a very fast speed.

Far away in the Pentagon in Washington, USA. A brief siren sounded, breaking the silence of the Pentagon's underground command.

Over the Middle East at the moment. A U.S. alert satellite happened to be in this vicinity, and the optical sensors on it quickly caught the tail flames and bright lights produced by the launch of more than 200 missiles.

This alert system, which has been used since the Cold War to this day, 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 continued to use this system and continued to operate around the world.

After the early warning system discovers the missile's tail flame and bright light, it will notify the early warning center on the ground as soon as possible.

The operation of the entire system did not take more than ten seconds, but when the alarm sounded, the staff of the Pentagon's early warning center only routinely checked the information and photos transmitted by the satellite.

In the 21st century, although this system is still functioning, the United States, which no longer has an obvious enemy, is more vigilant against North Korea, and for other places, it only maintains a level of vigilance that knows and understands.

It's just that when the staff routinely opened the message, they were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly pressed the economic button to let their chief come over as soon as possible.

On the operation log of the alert satellite he opened, a large photoelectric light was clearly captured, and it was accurately locked to Yemen.

Not one or two missiles, but hundreds of missiles, and the altitude of these climbs also exceeds that of ordinary surface-to-surface short-range missiles.

AWACS satellites are still tracking these missiles, and a large amount of data is constantly being transmitted to the ground.

When the commander on duty at the early warning center hurriedly arrived, the calculation of the ballistics had already been completed.

After seeing the contents of the report handed over by the staff, the commander on duty immediately picked up the phone, although the attack came from Yemen, the direction of the attack was Saudi Arabia, and it had nothing to do with the United States, but the appearance of more than 200 missiles in one breath was definitely not a trivial matter.

Moreover, near Saudi Arabia, there are a number of important military bases of the US military, and if these missiles fly indiscriminately, it will be worth it.

According to the results of the analysis of the data, the ballistic altitude of these missiles is all different, and the ballistic altitude of the highest batch of missiles is close to the outer atmosphere, and such a high ballistic altitude can completely hit targets 1,000 kilometers away.

And among these missiles, there are also a number of flight trajectories and trajectories, all of which are the same, and the ballistic computer gave the results for the first time, and according to the calculation of the height and arc of the trajectory, the target of the strike was Riyadh.

The other missile targets were all quickly calculated, and all of them were aimed at all the industrial and oil lifelines in Saudi Arabia, even the capital city.

At this time, the Americans no longer had time to think about where Yemen got so many missiles, and the entire Pentagon was alarmed for the first time.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Carter had just fallen asleep when he was called by the phone, and the moment he heard the news, his first reaction was: "Did you immediately notify the Saudi side and all our military institutions in Saudi Arabia?" ”

"It's been announced, but it's too late......"

After hearing the content of the phone call, Carter did not care about anything else, Saudi Arabia is the most important ally of the United States in the Middle East, and the United States values Saudi Arabia as an ally more than Israel's value.

The thought of more than 200 missiles aimed at his ally's head and smashing them down made Carter instantly sleepless.

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

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

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

These missiles are not those intercontinental missiles, and there is a reaction time of about twenty minutes, and missiles with a range of less than 1,000 kilometers are a matter of two or three minutes from liftoff to landing.

By the time he received the news, the missile that was closer to the target had already smashed into the ground, and it was too late for anything. (To be continued.) )
