(It is said that Christmas is just a Western festival, so I won’t say Merry Christmas to you. I’m not in good condition these days, so I’ll update less. When I’m in good condition, I’ll continue to get better.)

"The Iraqis attacked us? Do they still have the courage? How many troops?" Brian asked a series of questions.

At this time, how could the Iraqis attack?

Even if Saddam has not been killed, his command system has been destroyed.

It is definitely not possible to mobilize a huge army to encircle and annihilate your third armed sect division in a short time.

Unless they ambush enough troops around this.

"Yes, general, the Iraqis are running towards us from the northeast and southwest directions. There are still about 60 kilometers in the south and about 40 kilometers in the north. All of them are Iraq's most advanced Dragon Guard tanks... There are more than 200 fighter jets around Baghdad just took off..."

"Why just discovered it now?" Brian's face turned pale.

There is a satellite system in the sky, which can monitor the entire territory of Iraq.

At this time, I told him that after the huge Iraqi army disappeared, it suddenly appeared not far away in front of them!

Who can accept it?

However, as the commander of the 3rd Mechanical Stage Division, Brian did not hesitate at this time. It was meaningless to worry about how the other party came about. Instead of doing this, it would be better to get rid of the other party.

"All armored troops gather together, concentrate their full preparations for defense, and the attack helicopter regiment is ready for air support! Ask the Ministry of Defense to mobilize friendly forces around us for support, mobilize fighter jets in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Turkey and other places for air support..." A series of orders were sent from the division commander, and then through communications staff, all troops stationed more than ten kilometers away around the headquarters.

Especially the five tank battalions and five mechanics and stairs battalions under their subordinates.

Among these regiments, all of them are the most elite M1A2 tanks of the US military.

Depleted uranium armor, equipped with depleted uranium armor-piercing bombs.

These were improved by American equipment manufacturers after receiving the advice of Liu Yijiu. They appeared many years earlier than the historical M1A2.

"Woo..." The sirens sounded in the originally calm military camps. The American soldiers who were lazy to pass the time quickly ran towards their equipment under the urging of their superiors. They hurriedly refueled all the tanks and armored vehicles that had not had time to fill up the fuel.

The huge third maneuver division was originally divided into several parts and stationed everywhere. Now there are more than 300 Long Guards, more armored vehicles, and some remaining equipment from the 24th maneuver division are now under the command of the third maneuver division.

Whether to rebuild the 24th Mechanical and Infantry Division is the matter of the Ministry of National Defense.

"War alarm! The Iraqis are coming!" The American soldiers were excited at this time.

Many people had smiles on their faces. There was no sound of gunfire, so they could only live a life of scattering. Now, Iraqis have come up to adjust them.

"Woo" the shrill air defense sirens sounded after the war sirens.

"Air Defense!" After hearing such an alarm, the commander suddenly became serious.

No one would have thought that at this time the Iraqi air force would dare to come out and launch air strikes on them.

The Armored Brigade of the Third Machinery and Sword Division is set up in an area less than 20 kilometers west of Calabar, next to it is the brigade of the Machinery and Sword Division.

This place is located in the central position. To the north, two mechatronic battalions and two armored battalions were deployed. There are also four battalions in the south. In the front direction, there are only one mechatronic battalion and an armored battalion, as well as an armored brigade brigade company and two mechatronic brigade companies.

The entire Third Mechanical Infantry Division, most of the troops, were in a fan-shaped area of ​​about 20 kilometers long and about five kilometers wide, and attacked Calabar.

There is only one Iraqi light infantry brigade in Calabar, which is ready to retreat at any time.

From the sky in the northeast, a huge fleet of fighter jets soon appeared in the sight of the officers and soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Division.

"Oh my God! All the Iraqis fighter planes have appeared!" This is the emotion of the US military officers and soldiers who saw the situation.

Under the leadership of the huge J-11 fighter jet, there is a larger group of old-fashioned fighter jets.

Suddenly, among the huge aircraft group in the sky, some of the fighter jets came towards the northernmost 4th battalion position, while others continued to fly south.

"Scatter! All units disperse!" The battalion commander roared into the communication channel.

Without waiting for his order, when the air defense alarm sounded, all the tanks roared and spread around. The machine gunner in the tank opened the cockpit cover, held the machine gun on it, aimed the muzzle towards the sky, and the pilot quickly rotated the tank's turret towards the direction of the fighter jet.

On the armored vehicle, American soldiers carrying stingers air defense missiles emerged from the armored vehicle.

The armored vehicles scattered around frantically made the soldiers who stretched out their heads to aim and finally aimed, and locked in the target.

These tanks and armored vehicles that move quickly and maneuver to avoid maneuvers not only make a lot of smoke rise from the dry ground, but also the smoke bomb launchers on both sides of the tanks and armored vehicles are constantly firing smoke bombs around.

Soon, the ground became blurred.

"Lock the target!" It is much easier to look at the sky on the ground.

The armored infantry shoulder-mounted stinger air defense missile is aiming at the closer and closer aircraft fleet.

The air defense alarm on the ground screamed shrillly, covering up the roar of tanks and armored vehicles.

A shrill sound of breaking through the air crossed the fleet and approached the area at high speed from a distance. Then, a violent explosion was heard. A fast-moving M1A2 was blowing by an explosion air wave of less than two meters beside it and turned to one side. Finally, because the gravity of the tank itself was too strong, the side that was lifted fell heavily to the ground again.

Then, the tank could no longer move - the track was blown off.

"Xu'er"

"Xu'er"

Several sharp and harsh sounds of breaking through the air in succession, the missiles from further away quickly bloomed in the fleeing tank cluster.

And these explosions also kicked off the entire war.

The Third Infantry Division has air defense missiles in each camp, most of which are individual air defense missiles. The air defense weapons of the armored troops rely on armored vehicles and high-level dual-purpose heavy machine guns on tanks.

"emission!"

As the distance between the fighter jets was getting closer and closer, it was constantly enlarged in the eyes of the officers and soldiers. The old-fashioned Su-22 and others had to lower the flight altitude before they could drop bombs. Even the MiG-23 had to be lowered. These fighters flew to the ground from the beginning, and at this time they began to accelerate and climb upwards.

If the flight is too low, it is easy to be hit by air defense machine guns on the ground.

It is not easy to even avoid air defense missiles on the ground.

"The long-range firepower has not arrived yet!" The commander of the separate attack formation saw the US tanks and armor on the ground constantly fleeing around and large fogs of smoke and dust rose, and the ground became increasingly blurred.

Thinking that if they pounced on this time, the fighter plane would likely be hit by the missiles fired from behind.

"Don't worry! Throw the bomb!" What the commander needs to do is to make a quick decision. The smoke and dust on the ground are becoming more and more extensive. At that time, these tanks will not be able to achieve too much effect at all.

"Swish..." The huge group of aircraft flew over the cluster of tanks and armored vehicles. The J-11, carrying ground-to-ground missiles, first launched ground-to-ground missiles on the fighter mount.

The targets of these missiles are tanks that can be seen fleeing outside.

"boom!"

"Boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom..."

The series of explosions exploded before the fighter jets arrived over the tank cluster, and the smoke and dust on the ground became even bigger.

"Pay attention to the opponent's air defense weapons and throw all the bombs down!"

The commander was driving the J-11, alerting the radar, and ordering towards the entire formation.

"Fire!" Seeing the fighter group entering the air, the commander of the Fourth Armored Battalion inside the tank issued an order to fire the air defense fire.

"Dadada..." In the smoke rising from the ground, a series of flames spewed into the sky.

The fighter planes in the sky kept dropping huge aviation bombs and then climbed upwards.

In the formation, the main attackers were more than a dozen Su-22 fighter bombers from the Soviet Union. These fighters had a 4-ton bomb load. Because the engine's thrust-weight ratio was relatively low, they were completely regarded as ground attack aircraft, or bombers were more suitable.

There are ten Su-22s outside, each carrying four single air bombs weighing 500 kilograms.

The cannons on both sides of the wings are also firing on the ground.

"Kill that plane!" In the smoke and dust, a black soldier was carrying a poisonous sting on his shoulder, looking for a target, but the observer next to him found a Su 22 flying horizontally from them.

The missile on the black soldier's shoulder instantly aimed at the Su-22. When the aiming frame on the simple launcher circled the fighter's plane, the black soldier pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"call out!"

The stinger missile dragged its tail flame and flew quickly towards the Su-22, which could be seen clearly under the bomb under the belly of the aircraft.

The Su-22's fighter pilot did not notice the missiles at first. By the time he discovered it, the fighter was too late to turn to escape.

Without any hesitation, the pilot dropped all the bombs.

Then he was about to turn, but the poisonous sting hit the position under the wing on the side.

"Boom!" Su-22 in the sky instantly turned into a huge fireball.

"Boom boom boom!"

At this time, the bombs dropped by Su-22 also exploded on the ground.
Chapter completed!
