525 Assault, Long Weiyi!
With the conclusion of a grassroots commander of the armored forces who had been trained for a long time and received systematic education, a commander with rich armored forces combat theory but without any practical practice, and a military mullah who only thought that Allah's cause could not be destroyed by the abominable evil Saddam, the combat sequence of the First Armored Division of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard of Avas, the new armored combat force that built a defense line in Avas directly crossed the Port of Mahshahel, which was like taking off all her girls, and headed towards the Tikrit Division, the most elite Iraqi Presidential Guard who had occupied Abadan and rushed straight toward the flames.
This unit does not belong to the old military system, and the theater commander who was deployed at the port of Mahshahr could not command it.
Seeing such an elite force rushing forward, as the commander of the Southern Theater Defense Command, Ivalis could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness except for being furious.
That was the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, which was just established and directly commanded by Khomeini!
"Who can tell me what's going on with these bastards?" No one answered in the face of the commander's furiousness.
No one can answer.
"Mobilize our armored troops and air defense firepower to push the position forward ten kilometers, no, twenty kilometers!" Ivalis had no choice but to make such an order.
If the Revolutionary Guard troops are destroyed here, if he, the commander, cannot rescue them, they will eventually be ruined.
Although it is not rescued, it can organize effective resistance in the port of Mahshahel and cannot counterattack, at least it can ensure that the current defense line will not be lost for a long time.
"Turn the tank into the valley next to it, and we are waiting for the Iraqi bastard to come in here!" Ansar stood on the hill and saw the surrounding environment. Except for the occasional Iraqi fighter jets flying towards the Port of Mahshahr in the sky, he dropped a bomb from afar. When he saw the fighter jets in the port city take off, he turned around instantly, and then many aircraft from the Iraqi Air Force hidden in the clouds appeared. A fierce air battle broke out.
The armored battalion did not move forward any more.
The Iraqis' offensive was fierce, and Highway 96 was full of defeated soldiers retreating from Abadan.
"No, we should rush up at this time! The Iraqi armored forces are chasing our fleeing troops in front!" Khojatyi did not agree to wait here for a wait, "At this time, they will not be wary of us raiding them. Moreover, their vanguard forces have a huge number of tanks and armored vehicles!"
"Yes, assault! The Chinese tanks have shown strong raiding performance. Although our tanks are much worse than their t72 tonnage, I believe our tanks have stronger combat effectiveness than them! The Chinese have specially developed Soviet tanks!" Mullah was not to be outdone.
The Revolutionary Guard must have the spirit of daring to fight and fight to death.
Their instructors, teachers from China, instilled in this spirit in them.
The Chinese People's Liberation Army is an elite force armed with communist thought. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps is an elite force armed with Islamic religious beliefs.
At least, the most elite armored troops of the Revolutionary Guard cannot retreat at this time, nor can they watch Iraqi armored troops massacre fleeing infantry, making the fleeing troops unable to organize effective defense at all.
"Report! News came from the front that the one who was chasing the defeated soldiers was the 1st Battalion of Tanks of the Third Regiment of the Iraqi Tcret Division, 35 T72 tanks and 56 armored vehicles, and there were no infantrymen who coordinated attacks! There were no helicopters to follow..." The armored vehicles that went to reconnaissance came back.
The news brought back gives these commanders who have no war experience the battlefield opportunity.
"Opportunities are fleeting, we must seize them!" In the eyes of several people, armored troops, tanks are used to deal with tanks, and armored vehicles are used to protect infantry combat in concert with tanks. Armored vehicles cannot cause effective damage to tanks at all.
Slaughtering infantry and destroying fortifications blocking the front is the task of armored vehicles.
For tanks with thick skin and thick flesh, the armored vehicle is a thin skin pie that is killed in minutes.
"All units are concerned. In front of them are the most elite armored troops of the Iraqi Tcret Division! For the sake of the motherland and for Allah, rush up and kill them! With the blessing of Allah, there are powerful tanks from China, and the enemy is vulnerable in front of us!" On the battlefield, the middle and grassroots commanders are crazy.
Especially the tactical guiding ideology of the Iranian military officials who were still stuck in the Imperial World War I period.
Under the cover of advanced war weapons and equipment, they will still form a dense storm-former formation towards the enemy's positions and guns!
This is a religious army that is less afraid of death than the Chinese army under the leadership of the Communist Party.
Now Ansar does not refuse anymore, and the port of Mahshahr is behind it. Once the defense here cannot be resisted, the fortifications of Mahshahr port have not been completed, and once this large southern city is lost, the entire large area of southern Iran will not be able to organize and effectively resist.
More than 30 tanks rushed up in the opposite direction of the defeated soldiers' escape, without formation and no effective command.
At this time, the commander could no longer form effective command.
The fanatical religious soldiers, under such circumstances, have become berserkers. They just want to rush up as soon as possible, either destroying the enemy or being destroyed by the enemy!
"Kasa, if the accelerator is maximized, we must be faster than our comrades, see the enemy as fast as possible, and fire fire at the enemy as fast as possible!" Inside the tank troops, scattered tanks rushed forward in the wasteland on both sides of the road.
A tank numbered 111 was thrown at the end by numerous chaotic tanks rushing forward.
The bearded chariot who was watching the situation outside through the viewing scope inside, saw flying dust rising everywhere, and roared loudly at the driver next to him in unhappiness.
Other tanks were charging forward at the maximum speed, and their tank, which performed the best in training and even the Chinese instructors praised it, fell to the end. This was a blasphemy to Allah!
"Chief, this won't work! The instructor told us that we must retain a certain reserved speed so that we can survive on the battlefield..." The driver was still calm.
He is a novice, because Allah Allah gave him strength, so he was able to become the best tank driver in the instructor's mouth.
"The command of the battalion commander and Maula is to rush up as fast as possible! Kasa, hurry up. My cannon can't help but stab the shameful Iraqi chrysanthemum!" The gunner's finger pressed the cannonball launch button countless times.
The nervousness and excitement made his face flush appear.
"Boom!" Fire exchanges began in the distance, and a faint sound of cannons came.
This is Iraqi artillery bombing fleeing Iranian forces.
The driver heard the explosion and was shocked.
He kept chanting Allah Alas, suddenly stepped on the accelerator to the lowest position, then quickly adjusted the gear shifting joystick, and drove the tank to rush forward at maximum speed.
Under the crazy operation of the driver, the 780-horsepower diesel engine made a depressing roar. The nearly 40-ton tank roared out of its butt. Before it could rise, it was covered by the flying dust rising up and rose into the air.
The heavy iron lump rushed forward at a shocking speed.
The defeated troops who were fleeing towards the port of Mahshahr in the rear were stunned to see this situation.
A car full of soldiers suddenly stopped in the middle of the road.
"Brothers, our armored troops are attacking forward. We cannot let them fight against the evil Iraqis without the protection of infantry. If you have the courage, follow me back!" A captain opened the door of the passenger passenger, pulled the wall of the driving compartment with one hand, hung his body diagonally, and held the telescope in his right hand to look in the direction where the Iraqi army was chasing behind them. In addition to the rolling dust, there were also vaguely exposed steel monsters.
Looking at the strange armored vehicles behind them rushing towards the front, the lieutenant climbed to the roof and shouted at the soldiers sitting in the back carriage, full of dust and smoke. "If you are unwilling to die, get out of the car and run towards the port of Mahshahel, with their resistance, the Iraqi troops did not catch up with them so quickly!"
After the lieutenant shouted, no one got out of the car.
The tired soldiers in the car just quickly sorted out their weapons and equipment.
The car turned around and rushed forward as fast as possible.
Many infantry fled on the road, also began to turn around and rushed towards the battlefield where they were unknown.
"Battery Commander, they should keep their speed. If a plate of loose sand rushes forward like this, problems will easily arise..." Ansar sat in the command car and saw the tanks in front rushing forward in a mess, while the armored vehicle was much behind.
He was shocked immediately.
Tanks are powerful.
Without armored vehicles protection and no infantry protection for coordinated combat, these tanks will even be blown off by enemy infantry with cluster grenades and become targets for the enemy! The Chinese used to have few tanks, and they often used troops to deal with enemy armored vehicles, and had rich experience in infantry anti-tank and anti-armor combat.
During the previous training, Chinese instructors passed on all these experiences to them without any hiding their own personal experiences.
They will, so will the enemies.
"Our armored vehicles have a maximum driving speed of only 55 kilometers, which is not as good as these tanks! How to coordinate? You can only keep up quickly!" Hojatyi also knew that there would be problems if he rushed up like this mess in front of him.
The Chinese are so bastard, the tanks are faster than armored vehicles!
When the tank driver is crazy, even if the armored vehicle driver rushes forward frantically, he will have to fall behind for more than ten kilometers in an hour!
"Storm up, don't worry about so much! Ansar, for the cause of Allah, I hope you can play your role well. You have richer experience than us. Now I hope you can command this war!" Before Ansar, the deputy battalion commander, responded, Hojatyi stopped the command vehicle, and followed the command vehicle's several armored vehicles and tanks.
The battalion commander directly drilled into a command tank next to him and threw out the gunner inside.
"Ansar, for the cause of Allah, for the safety of the land, and for the Revolutionary Guards, I hope you can stick to your post!" Mullah Hazari also drilled into a tank next to him.
The fanatical religious warriors are crazy.
They were on the battlefield for the first time, but they were not as nervous as they should have. They recited the Quran and thought of Allah Allah. They rushed forward without hesitation towards the location where the enemy was in front of them.
It was not until the two tanks ran away that Ansar came to his senses.
The whole person was immediately suspended. The battalion commander rushed up and the mullah rushed up. He, a deputy battalion commander, stayed behind here, and the commander could not command at all.
Immediately, regardless of anything else, he ordered the stopping armored vehicles and the remaining tank to rush forward.
"I saw the Iraqi armored vehicles ahead!" Under Kasa's crazy manipulation, they caught up with the tank that threw them down and became the arrow in the front. Leaving the other tanks behind their butts to eat dust.
"Ankara, coordinates 302, 185, distance 4.7, give them a shot!" At this time, the captain didn't know whether he was excited or excited. He looked at the data on the display screen in front, and then saw the situation outside through the sight. A yellow-painted round turret tank appeared in the distance, and he became excited.
With the support of the commander's data, the gunner was nervous and excited and thought about the words of the Chinese instructor. During the war, except aiming and finding ways to destroy enemies like targets, don't think of anything, just treat it as an exercise!
The square turret was rotating rapidly, and the originally low-hanging gun barrel began to rise high.
"The distance is 4.6...4.5...the left side of the turret is 1°19', open fire!" When the gunman kept reporting the data, Kasa kept adjusting the position of the tank turret barrel according to the Chinese instructor's teaching.
Hearing the sound of fire, he immediately pressed the firing button with his thumb!
"boom!"
The huge roar made the tank, which was still moving forward frantically, and the turret bounced hard towards the back.
"Enemy attack!" When the commander inside the Iraqi tank in the distance saw a white line flying from the sky, he immediately roared.
They had no idea that Abadan's Iranian armored troops had been destroyed by them, and part of the escape should have run to Mahshahel Port and had the courage to stop the counterattack!
"Boom!" The 125mm shell exploded next to the tank, and the soil that was raised splashed at a height of several meters.
The shell lands several meters near the tank.
Chapter completed!
