Two medium-sized private helicopters were flying rapidly on the vast desert. Under the illumination of the stars, they were like ghosts passing through the sky, quickly passing through the sky but were unaware of it.

Zhou Minghe's desert team was on these two helicopters respectively, and their destination was Bahrain's International Airport.

This is Zhou Ming's original plan. After getting military expenditure from the Saudi royal family, he immediately rushed to Iraq without stopping. In addition, from the embassy, ​​he was intercepted by the US Air Force on a flight. Things have obviously developed in the worst direction: the US government, intelligence agencies and military have noticed themselves.

The Gulf War is imminent, and the entire Middle East is filled with American military and intelligence networks. If they are determined to investigate, they will definitely be able to infer their own movements from the flight's passengers, so they must set out to Iraq before the Americans take action.

Of course, it is possible that the Americans would not find out, but Zhou Ming did not dare to bet on his luck. Therefore, even if time was tight, Zhou Ming still took a detour from Bahrain. This not only could bypass the US military's reconnaissance information to a greater extent, but more importantly, he could also bypass the confrontation between the Saudis and Iraqi borders from Bahrain. Just to speed up his departure, Zhou Ming borrowed two private helicopters through the embassy to manage the Saudis.

In this way, an hour later, Zhou Ming finally arrived at the international airport in Bahrain. The embassy had already helped prepare it. Therefore, Zhou Ming got off the helicopter and immediately boarded another plane. He didn't even have time to say a few more words with the local ambassador.

Since it was a private plane, when Zhou Ming boarded the plane, the plane quickly received a takeoff permission, so it started taking off ten minutes later.

Zhou Ming was still sitting by the bed, feeling the plane slowly leaping into the air, and watching that it was almost 11:30, and it had been two and a half hours since he arrived in Saudi Arabia, and more than three hours had passed since the US military plane intercepted the wrong flight.

This made Zhou Ming feel so hard that he couldn't help but beat the drum: for such a long time, those Americans wouldn't have noticed it now, after all, it was the intelligence system of a superpower, especially now that the Gulf War is about to break out, no matter how dereliction of duty, the US intelligence department dared not give discounts to the leader as if it were at this time. I just hope that I can arrive in Iraq smoothly in the end.

Zhou Ming's worry is not unreasonable. The fact is that the president's secret order was sent to Normandy half an hour ago. The commander-in-chief of the Gulf Front was also very puzzled when facing the president's order.

Intercept and investigate every aircraft from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to Iraq

Normandy was stunned for a while before talking to herself: What kind of political figures are you going to catch? But who else dares to go to Iraq at this point in time?

Finally, Normandy shook her head, shook out these boring ideas, faithfully implemented the president's order, called the Liya base, and asked the base air force to immediately and fully deploy, intercept all planes taking off from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to Iraq.

Like the previous Zahran Air Force Base, the pilots of the Lia Base were also very surprised by this order, but no matter what they thought, as soldiers, they still had to strictly implement the order. So dozens of F15 and F16 fighter jets took off from the airport of the Lia Base and cruised on all the necessary routes from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to Iraq.

The news also reached Yanjing far away in the east. Lin Zekang quickly got into the car and came to Yang Dingguo's bedroom. He woke up Yang Dingguo and told Yang Dingguo everything about the US military's actions.

Yang Dingguo, who was called up at 5 a.m., was still a little confused, but after hearing Lin Zekang's report, he immediately opened his eyes and looked at Lin Zekang and asked: Comrade Zekang, you said that the Americans in the Gulf Air Force have dispatched more than 200 aircraft since half an hour ago to intercept all aircraft on the routes from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to Iraq. What's going on? They are determined to arrest Zhou Ming? Did they know what?

Lin Zekang shook his head and said: I'm sorry, Mr. Yang, the intelligence department has not yet analyzed the results, but based on limited intelligence, it was learned that this was an order issued by President Walsh himself.

Yang Dingguo said in surprise: It seems that our Comrade Zhou Ming is far more important than we imagined.

At this time, Chairman Du Zhongyuan walked in and asked what happened. Yang Dingguo said to him very seriously: Comrade Zhongyuan, just now, we received information that President Walsh personally ordered the arrest of Zhou Ming.

Following Yang Dingguo's words, Lin Zekang reported to Du Zhongyuan again what he had just reported. Du Zhongyuan frowned after hearing this. Yang Dingguo asked him what he thought. Du Zhongyuan shook his head, then sighed and said: It seems that Zhou Ming is much more important than what we think.

Yang Dingguo and Lin Zekang both nodded and agreed with Du Zhongyuan's words. After all, judging from the Americans' situation of dispatching so many aircraft, it is probably the Iraqi president who fled. That's it. You should know that the dispatch of high-tech fighter jets is not as simple as driving out on their own. From the preparation of fuel to possible losses, the cost of an F16 for an hour and a half will cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Now, judging from the fact that Americans dispatched more than 200 aircraft, the cost is enough to be millions of dollars, and this is just the cost of intercepting the aircraft, not counting the costs incurred by the intermediate intelligence agencies.

The Americans spent such a big price just to catch Zhou Ming, which is undoubtedly incredible, and it also proved Zhou Ming's own value and potential influence from another perspective. In other words, in the eyes of the Americans, is Zhou Ming really possible to help Iraq block the US offensive pace? This idea is unreasonable no matter how it is analyzed, but the United States has verified this idea from the president's order to the military mobilization of the Gulf region.

In the end, Yang Dingguo would never think about this question without answers. He asked Du Zhongyuan: Is there any way to provide Comrade Zhou Ming with the help he needs?

Du Zhongyuan shook his head and replied: I'm sorry, Mr. Yang, because Zhou Ming has now boarded the plane to Iraq, and we will not be able to provide him with any form of help unless we formally interfere with the war.

At this moment, Yang Dingguo wanted to slap the table and say something, and interfere, and he would interfere. Anyway, he is one of the five permanent members and has a great say in some regional affairs and even the United Nations war.

But in the end, Mr. Yang gave up: If the country can be stronger, or if the big brother is still there, maybe we have the courage to mention it. The United States will also give us some face in order to check and balance the big brother. But now, facing the world's only superpower, we are just a weak country that needs a long time to develop. For the future of this country, we can only hope that Comrade Zhou Ming can be lucky and the world will be in heaven.

Listening to Mr. Yang's words, Du Zhongyuan and Lin Zekang's faces were both embarrassed. After all, as the country's leaders, they can't even provide protection for their own citizens, which is really frustrating.

Yang Dingguo finally said: Contact Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and the US embassy. If Zhou Ming's plane is finally intercepted, we can also safely take him back from the Gulf to the country as soon as possible so that he will not suffer more losses in the hands of the Americans.

Du Zhongyuan and Lin Zekang both nodded and expressed support for Mr. Yang's decision, because due to the limitations of national power, they could not provide any help to Zhou Ming after his plane took off. However, they could do their best to bring Zhou Ming safely back to the country when Zhou Ming finally fell into the hands of the Americans, which could make up for his guilt towards Zhou Ming.

But at this moment, Du Zhongyuan's secretary suddenly walked in and brought them news that they all unexpectedly: a large-scale sandstorm suddenly occurred in Saudi Arabia.

Du Zhongyuan and Lin Zekang of Yang Dingguo were shocked when they heard the news: Could it be that God wants to help Zhou Ming escape this disaster?

At the same time, President Walsh also received the news. He slapped the table in annoyance. He looked up and asked his national security assistant opposite him: Why was this weather not observed in advance?

Brent replied: Sorry, Mr. President, this sandstorm was caused by a sudden change in air pressure, so the meteorological department could not accurately predict it.

Then it seems that this is God's will

Walsh sighed heavily. Just as he was about to give up the interception of Zhou Ming, his secretary suddenly came in outside and brought him a cell phone. Walsh took it to connect, and it was called by Christo, the patriarch of the Adams family.

Christo said: Mr. President Walsh First of all, I am very sorry to bother you, but some things are necessary. I believe you know that I am very concerned about the Chinese man Zhou Ming, and I even paid more military expenses for this. So when I learned that you were intercepting his plane, I was very happy because it was to eliminate an annoying opponent for us.

Walsh interrupted Christo and said: Mr. Christo I regret to interrupt you. Although we have dispatched fighter planes to intercept Zhou Ming’s possible aircraft, we have not found the target. Later, our intelligence department analyzed that the other party had cleverly avoided our interception by temporarily changing the itinerary, and we began to intercept all aircraft from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to Iraq.

Mr. Walsh is indeed our great president. Your judgment and decisiveness are very admirable. Christo praised it.

But Walsh's next words surprised him: But I planned to give up next because a sandstorm that we unexpectedly had occurred.

Damn this is really disgusting news Christo said annoyed, but he then asked, but if I remember correctly, our planes and highly skilled pilots can forcefully take off under the bad weather conditions of sandstorms, right?

Walsh frowned: I think there is something going on, but I don't think it's a good idea to force our pilots to take off under the harsh conditions of sandstorms.

Mr. President, in fact, no matter whether he has a good idea or not, it depends on the final result. Sometimes, in order to get the results he wants, it becomes a must. Christoet said, "I know that the military must have spent a lot of money for this operation. If Mr. President agrees, I promise that the Adams family will bear the military expenses. On the contrary, if Mr. President does not agree, it will be difficult for me to do it."

After saying that, Christo hung up the phone. Walsh threw the microphone on the table and scolded: These damn businessmen
Chapter completed!
