Chapter 30
The Forces Behind the Houthis

“What kind of rocket launcher is this?”

Salman asked in confusion.

“Father, our coalition forces successfully captured two rocket launchers and rockets used by the Houthis on the battlefield.”

“I have already sent them all to the arms dealers in the Free Nation for analysis.”

“This is the weapon analysis results they gave.”

As he spoke, Aziz handed over a document.

“This is actually a very advanced anti-tank rocket.”

“It uses an aluminum composite shaped charge, and the armor-piercing projectile can penetrate more than 400 millimeters of armor.”

“Moreover, the launch tube is also equipped with a night vision sight and an electronic fire control system.”

“According to the results given by the Free Nation, the performance of this anti-tank single-soldier rocket launcher is even stronger than their equivalent equipment in the Free Nation!”

Aziz explained with a gloomy expression.

What?

Even more advanced than the Free Nation's anti-tank single-soldier rocket launchers?!

Hearing this, Salman's pupils suddenly contracted.

His mouth gaped open involuntarily.

The weapon performance of the Free Nation is definitely the ceiling of Blue Star.

In terms of overall military equipment, the only ones that can compete with the Free Nation are White Bear Nation and Dragon Nation.

How could a civilian armed organization like the Houthis suddenly obtain such powerful single-soldier weapons?

However.

Salman's doubts hadn't been resolved yet.

Aziz continued.

“Father, you should finish watching the video first.”

Hearing this, a bad feeling arose in Salman's heart.

Didn't he already see this powerful single-soldier anti-tank weapon?

Why did Aziz still ask him to watch the video?

Could there be something that would shock him even more?

Thinking of this, Salman immediately picked up his phone and clicked on the video.

At this time, in the video, their tank armored forces were unable to continue moving due to the large number of tank losses on the front line and the periphery.

As a result, the ground forces in the rear entered a state of tense defense.

At this moment, in the picture, the Houthis in the distance had already put down their single-soldier anti-tank rocket launchers.

They were holding machine guns and charging towards the Satar coalition forces.

Da da da—

Suddenly, the two sides erupted in a fierce gun battle.

Originally, seeing this, Salman still had confidence in his ground forces.

After all, judging from the video, their Satar coalition forces clearly had an absolute numerical advantage.

Moreover, the Satar coalition soldiers were well-equipped.

Even without the support of the tank armored forces, they shouldn't have been defeated so quickly.

However, what happened next completely dumbfounded Salman.

He saw a Satar coalition soldier holding his machine gun, aiming at the charging Houthis and firing a burst.

He could even clearly see that two bullets accurately hit the charging Houthi.

In his opinion, after being hit by two bullets, this Houthi member would be dead or seriously injured even if he didn't die.

But what he didn't expect was.

The Houthi who was hit by the bullets just ducked behind cover for a moment.

Then he charged out again, as vigorous as ever, and quickly killed the Satar coalition soldier with his machine gun.

“What's going on?”

“Why did the bullets hit that Houthi's body, but he seemed to be completely unharmed?”

“Is he a demon?!”

This scene made Salman completely unable to sit still.

He, who already had a strong belief in theology, thought the other side might be possessed by Satan.

“Father, they are not demons, they are wearing very powerful bulletproof vests.”

“Moreover, they also have advanced tactical helmets and M16A4 rifles on them.”

“Basically, all the single-soldier equipment that the Free Nation Army combat troops have, this Houthi member has them all.”

“And it's not just this Houthi member who has such complete single-soldier equipment.”

“Their entire forces are equipped like this!”

What?!

This result shocked Salman.

An army of tens of thousands of people, all equipped with single-soldier equipment comparable to Free Nation soldiers?

That's simply a fantasy!

Salman couldn't believe what he heard.

The Free Nation's single-soldier equipment is definitely the most advanced and complete on Blue Star.

The price is also high. This whole set of equipment costs tens of thousands of dollars.

If an army of over 10,000 people is fully equipped, it will cost at least tens of billions of dollars.

Where did the Houthis, a poor and destitute organization, get so much money?

Moreover, these advanced single-soldier equipment can't be bought with just money.

They, Satar, also wanted to get such a set of equipment for their troops.

But they couldn't reach an agreement with the Free Nation.

Where did the Houthis get such advanced equipment from?

“No! There must be other forces behind the Houthis!”

“And judging from the performance of these weapons, it certainly isn't the Islamic Wolves.”

At this moment, he finally understood why Aziz said the Houthis were well-equipped before.

His son was not lying to him, it was true!

“Father, you believe me now.”

“Yes, you can't be blamed for this.”

“However, we must quickly investigate the forces behind the Houthis who are supporting them in secret.”

“This will affect how we treat the Houthis in the future.”

Aziz also nodded in agreement.

Previously, the reason they wanted to help the Ye'men government army fight the Houthis was.

In addition to wanting to participate in the Ye'men oil resource issue.

It was also because the Houthis were supported by their mortal enemy, the Islamic Wolves.

But it seems that the Houthis are not so simple now.

Just from these advanced single-soldier equipment and powerful anti-tank rocket launchers, one can see.

Behind the Houthis, there may be a great power that can rival the Free Nation.

You can count the great powers at this level on the fingers of one hand.

If those two powers were secretly supporting them, then they would have to re-evaluate the consequences of dealing with the Houthis.

Don't let the Houthis not be wiped out, but instead bring trouble to them, Satar.

Although Satar has the world's largest oil reserves.

The huge oil wealth makes them one of the richest countries in the world.

But wealth brings trouble.

Satar is located in the turbulent Middle East, and guarding such great wealth inevitably makes other countries covet it.

Therefore, they are known for their generosity in arms procurement and their willingness to pay, which makes them a favorite of arms dealers all over the world.

They are even called “big spenders”.

But actually, they are not stupid at all. They use arms purchases to balance relationships with various forces.

In short, they use large arms orders to pay protection fees in disguise.

Therefore, Satar is still very cautious about the attitudes of those few major powers on Blue Star.

If you offend the wrong country, it will be a disaster.
