Chapter 1000 Desert Thunder (Second update, please subscribe)

Although some gifts are precious, they are unknown to others. The silent contributions are the most precious.

In fact, when it comes to gift-giving, no one knows more than Li Yian. He is not only good at giving gifts to old friends, but also to new friends.

While it took ten years to send a big gift to Japan, the gift that was carefully prepared for the wealthy country in the Middle East has also come to the time to pack up and send it away.

After nine months of preparation, on September 9, 23, when the world's attention was attracted by the "Suez issue" and the "global trial" in the South China Sea, Yemen once again submitted a report to the United Nations requesting the United Nations to urge Saudi Arabia to withdraw its troops and return its occupied territory.

This proposal, as expected... did not produce any results. It only earned the United Nations a statement "calling on all countries to respect the territorial integrity of other countries." Apart from that, there was nothing else. Many people don't even know where the country of Yemen came from. As for the territorial dispute between them and Saudi Arabia, is it important?

No one cares at all!

Now, the only two major events for the whole world are Suez and the war criminals trials.

As for Yemen, no one cares!

However, no one knows that what Yemen is waiting for are just those pieces of waste paper from the United Nations!
After the United Nations issued this statement on the morning of September 9rd, Eastern Time, the next day, at about 23 a.m. on September 9rd, local time in Yemen, thirty-six "Butcher Birds" loaded with aerial bombs roared into takeoff.

The pilots on these planes were not Yemenis speaking Arabic, but a group of short Asian pilots. If there were Indians here, they would definitely bark loudly - "Damn Japs".

That's right, they are the Japanese pilots of the Black Knight Company, who almost destroyed the entire Indian Air Force and dealt a heavy blow to the Indian Army during the Principality War. Now, they appear in the sky again!
In addition to the "Butcher's Bird", there are more than a dozen F1A fighter jets in the rear. Although they are second-hand goods eliminated by the Nanyang Air Force, their outstanding performance, coupled with a group of battle-hardened ace pilots, make them absolutely like kings on the battlefield in the Middle East.

In order to ensure the suddenness of the attack, radio silence was maintained after the fleet took off. When the "Butcher Birds" were flying close to the undulating sand dunes and barren mountains, Saburo Sakai, who was flying the F1a fighter, was the former top ace pilot of the Japanese Navy, who was once known as the "Navy Shooting King". Like many people, he joined the "Black Knight Company" eight years ago. As a pilot of the company, he not only fought with the Indian Air Force, but also "fought" with the South China Sea Air Force and Naval Aviation. Naturally, his air combat experience is beyond the reach of ordinary pilots.

Unlike the Butcher Birds that flew close to the ground, the fleet led by Saburo Sakai maintained an altitude of less than 100 meters. Due to the influence of ground clutter and mountains, it was difficult for radar to detect aircraft at this altitude.

Sakai, who was flying a jet fighter, observed the fleet and occasionally directed it by shaking his wings. In front of him, the pilots of the attack aircraft formation were concentrating on avoiding the sand dunes and hills on the ground. All the "Butcher Birds" were flying at almost zero altitude.

Just like that, dozens of minutes later, when the fleet appeared near Jeddah, most of the Saudi pilots in the airport were still asleep. The leader Morita took the lead and directly swept the pilots' dormitory with 70mm rockets.

"Attack, attack, attack freely according to the plan!"

The radio silence was broken at 5:12 a.m., without any suspense. Just like in India, they first attacked the pilot dormitory - compared with the planes, for a country like Saudi Arabia, what is more valuable is the pilots. Without the pilots, even if they bought the planes, they would be a pile of scrap metal.

At the first moment of the attack, dozens of pilots were sent to heaven in their sleep. At this time, explosions were heard one after another at the airport. Fighter planes, transport planes and bombers were blown to pieces in the fierce bombing.

At the same time as the airport was raided, military camps near Jeddah were also bombed. Heavy bombs were dropped directly into the barracks from low altitudes, and thousands of soldiers were blown into the sky.

The raid from the air lasted only twenty minutes. Twenty minutes later, when the last "Butcher Bird" left, Jeddah had turned into a sea of ​​fire - the military camp, the airport, and even the two poor little warships in the port suffered devastating blows.

At the same time, the Yemeni army on the border also rushed across the border. Amid the roar of heavy artillery, the Saudi army guarding the border suffered a devastating blow.

This was a carefully planned attack!

Both the method and intensity of the attack were beyond the imagination of the Arabs. From planning to launching the attack, the Yemenis... were just involved. The air cover was entirely provided by mercenaries, and even the artillery was commanded by mercenaries.

On the first day of the war, Saudi Arabia's defense on the southwestern border was completely defeated, and tens of thousands of Yemeni troops entered Saudi Arabia in a mighty manner.

Unstoppable all the way.

When the Yemeni army crossed the border, Riyad was still asleep. King Aziz, who had just inherited the throne three years ago, was awakened from his sleep. When he was awakened by his servants, he even subconsciously thought that it was his younger brother Faisal who launched a coup. Although he was the eldest brother, his prestige and ability were far inferior to his younger brother. In his opinion, the assassination last year and the Free Officers Movement were just a cover, and Faisal might have been involved. "What's going on? Is it Faisal?"

Aziz, who was suddenly awakened, asked loudly.

Fortunately, the attendant was his confidant, a black eunuch who had followed him for many years. Saudi Arabia still uses slaves. Those black slaves from Africa are castrated eunuchs. They are widely found in the homes of royal families and tribal dignitaries. There is even a slave market in Saudi Arabia until now. Every year, there are thousands of black slaves from Sudan. The Arabs in northern Sudan plunder tens of thousands of blacks as slaves every year. Some of them will enter Saudi Arabia through the northern desert of Egypt and be sold in the slave market.

This slave trade continued until the end of the 20th century, and although it was nominally abolished a few years later, that was only on the surface.

The black slave eunuch was not surprised by the king's reaction and said quickly:

"Your Majesty, it's Yemen. The Yemeni army has crossed the border and is attacking Guiana at full speed. They have also bombed the local airport."

"The Crown Prince is on his way, Your Highness."

The crown prince the attendant was referring to was his younger brother Faisal, who was not only the crown prince but also the prime minister of the country.

"Yemen, how dare they attack us? Have they forgotten how they failed last time?"

The victory more than 20 years ago made Aziz's tone full of disdain. As long as it was not his good brother, there was nothing to worry about. The Yemenis... posed no threat at all. They were able to defeat the Yemenis back then, and the same was true now.

Soon, Aziz met Faisal. As soon as he saw him, Aziz said,
"Feisali, what should we do now?"

"Fight back!"

Feisalli said directly.

"We defeated the Yemenis three or four years ago, and we can defeat them again now. Your Majesty, please allow me to lead the army to launch a counterattack."

Twenty-two years ago, it was Faisal who led his army to defeat the Yemenis, capturing cities and territories along the way and forcing Yemen to sign a humiliating treaty. If the British had not intervened, he could even have occupied the entire Yemen.

"Your Majesty, this time, we will occupy the entire Yemen! Defeat them completely!"

Looking at his confident brother, although Aziz knew clearly that he had the ability, he was still worried that he would take the opportunity to control the army and force him to abdicate. Considering the dissatisfaction with him within the royal family in recent times, Aziz knew very well that his good brother must have contributed to this, so he said.

"Faisal, my brother, you are no longer the young prince you were more than 20 years ago. You are the prime minister of the kingdom. You must not put yourself in danger. We still have other generals. Let them defeat the Yemenis!"

Faisal was very clear about his elder brother's little thoughts. After just a little thought, he spoke.

"We can let them pass, but the commander must be from our family. The current army is full of conspirators who want to overthrow us. We must not let them take control of the army."

Aziz said, listening to his brother's reminder.

"Don't worry, we all know that those guys are just a group of young people. What can they do?"

The king's reaction made Feisal frown slightly. Worried that the situation would worsen, he thought for a while and said.

"Your Majesty, we must send troops from all over the country as soon as possible. We must stop the Yemeni invasion!"
