All Missiles in Position
Chapter 689:All Missiles in Position
Elle is a small town on the border between Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
This town is also famous in both countries.
The two countries have once fought a war because of this small town.
It was the 1970s, when a military conflict broke out between Saudi Arabia and Yemen.
In order to fight for control of the town, in fact, the town was under Yemeni control.
The two sides have territorial disputes here, and it is also because of the war that broke out.
The course of the war was very short, and the Saudi Air Force first launched air strikes on the town, and then attacked the ground to strengthen the defense line.
The Yemeni army also did not have the ability to regain control of the region, and the end result was that the town was firmly controlled by Saudi Arabia.
Now, Elle is also the main forward base for the Saudi ground forces, and on the map, the location of the town is a prominent structure for Yemen, and it is also completely aimed at the core area controlled by the Houthis.
In this small town, the main armored units of the Saudi Army are also concentrated in this small town.
From the border to the town, the Arab League forces carried out layers of defense to prevent cross-border attacks by the Houthis, and in order to prevent the Houthis' rockets and missiles from attack, four battalions of Patriot air defense missile systems were also deployed here.
The defense level is extremely high, and who let this place, have a large number of advanced weapons and equipment, amassed one-third of the main force of the Saudi army.
On the day of the sinking of the Saudi air force, it caused a huge shock at the top of the Saudis and caused international heated discussion.
Here in the town, it was calm, because the king had given orders to the frontline troops to be vigilant to prevent the Houthis from fighting, and at the same time ordered all army units to take a final rest and be ready to fight.
Saudi Arabia, who is not willing to lose a huge loss in the air force, can not wait for the response of allies to launch a ground military operation in Yemen alone.
However, neither Saudi ground forces nor the troops of other Arab League countries in the border defense have not thought that the Houthis will use special operations to infiltrate.
After all, the Houthis are just an irregular armed force, and such an armed force does not have the strength to cultivate special professional special operations forces.
Internationally, there is no information on the Houthi mercenary, so the defense of the border is still focused on preventing the attack of the Houthi army.
More importantly, the enemy does not come from the frontal enemy, and the attacking forces come from the rear.
That night, a Saudi Army logistics convoy arrived in the town, and today it is the 18th logistics convoy, all trucks carrying weapons and ammunition.
The soldiers of the Saudi post in the small town did not find anything wrong, and looked at the documents and released them directly.
Several trucks entered the town's compound, and within a huge site, you could see the Patriot air defense missile system on the left and right four air defense positions.
A large number of Saudi soldiers in the station, also naturally walking in the station, look quite leisurely.
The trucks entering the station, no one noticed that the four trucks in the convoy were naturally parked on the edge of each anti-aircraft missile launch position, and the location around the station was stopped, so no one cared.
The vehicle stopped, and the quartermaster of the station came over and asked the car soldiers who opened the cab door, "What supplies are in the car?"
“The car is part of the weapons and ammunition and medicine, and will be discharged into the warehouse tomorrow.”The car soldier put his list into the hands of the quartermaster, he said.
"Call your people to rest, and tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, on time to unload."The quartermaster looked at the list stamped with the logistics stamp, nodded, and handed the key to a barracks for the car soldier.
Looking at the quartermaster who turned away, the car soldier threw the key in his hand, raised his mouth slightly, walked around the station without scruples, and gathered with several other so-called car soldiers.
"Brothers, relax in the bar of the town."A few car soldiers marched towards the outside of the station.
When they passed the gate, the sentry who stood at the guard only looked at them and saw nothing.
The entry and exit of the barracks was quite easy, and there were no accidents, because every night, many officers and soldiers in the station would also relax in the town's bars.
Saudi Arabia strictly prohibits alcohol, so the so-called bar in the town is actually a so-called tradition of the Saudi army learning from the United States, because there is no alcohol in the bar, that is, the bar, in fact, it is all juice.
Just to come out and relax, not to stay in the camp full of repression.
Several car soldiers disappeared at the gate of the camp, did not go to the town and juice, and disappeared directly into the eyes of everyone in the town.
At the same time, the other three main army stations on the Saudi-Yemen border are similar to the picture.
A large number of logistics materials arrived, so that many logistics vehicles that had not yet arrived to unload were parked in the station and did not attract anyone's attention.
At the same time, in many parts of Yemen, unusual events are taking place.
In the complex hills and mountains of Yemen, a hidden cave, a missile launch vehicle slowly drove out of the cave and stopped at the mouth of the cave.
On the plains of northwest Yemen, calm on the ground, huge camouflage pulled apart, flat on the ground, a huge downward ramp, and in the middle of the slope was a missile launcher parked inside.
On the outskirts of many towns, unremarkable places, perfectly camouflaged silos, disguised as ground manhole covers rise and removed, slowly revealing the true face of the silo.
These silos are not the silos of large intercontinental missiles, they are small missile silos only seven or eight meters deep, and the structure is very simple, and there is no underground equipment as complex as nuclear missiles, only a deep well to accommodate missiles, there are remote control ignition devices below, and no other equipment exists.
When a large number of missiles were ready to launch, the temporary headquarters where 009 was located, all of them waited patiently for the best time to attack.
This is a counterattack destined to shock the world, not to mention Saudi Arabia can't imagine, even all the countries in the world, will not think that in a place like Yemen, there will be so many tactical missiles.
“The information confirms that the goods are in place and the delivery person has left safely.”Inside the temporary headquarters, there was a message that was exciting for everyone.
