On the highway in southeastern Iran, dozens of weird tanks with yellow-brown desert camouflage and armored vehicles with the same camouflage are flying on the road. When cars driving on the road see this armored force from afar, they make way. △￠,

No one knows why such an advanced and elite tank unit appeared in this position.

But they knew that the abominable Iraqis had invaded.

Six hours later, the tank had left the Iranian Shahl, six hundred kilometers away! However, it was still more than two thousand kilometers away from the western battlefield.

The tank's butt chimney was spewing black smoke weakly, like some tank soldiers who could not stand it in the tank. The speed was greatly reduced, and the commander who was watching this situation in the command car had to order a rest.

"Speed ​​up! Iraqis are raging on our land!" Three days have passed since the outbreak of the Iraq War!

After resting for half an hour, letting the soldiers solve the problem on the roadside, and moving because of their numb body that had been sitting in the tank for too long, Hojatyi gritted his teeth and issued an order.

Iraq's army caused heavy losses to the old army stationed on the border and was quickly rushing from the border area to the western border.

However, the distance is too far.

Although before the war started, the tanks provided by China had already gathered in Shahl, Iran, a transportation hub in the southeast region. Unfortunately, it was too far from the border here.

The order of the Supreme Leader Khomeini allowed the First Armored Division of the Revolutionary Guard, which had not yet been reorganized and formed a combat power, to quickly rush to the important western city of Avas! The Revolutionary Guard Infantry Division in the capital had quickly rushed towards the border battlefield.

"Battery Commander. The tanks have insufficient fuel, so you must stop and replenish the fuel first. I suggest continuing to march at night. The maximum range of these tanks is 550 kilometers. If all drive at the highest speed, it can only reach 430 kilometers..." The deputy battalion commander said with a frown.

For these new tanks, he knew that they were much more powerful than the tanks that King Pahlavi had purchased from the United States and France.

If you keep marching at the highest speed without maintenance and without waiting for them to arrive on the battlefield, you will lose a lot. The Chinese have not completed all the tests, and long-distance raids can easily lead to non-combat reductions.

"Ansar, we must reach the border as soon as possible. Drive the Iraqis back! In the past three days, we have lost a lot of territory! The guys from the old army suffered heavy casualties..." Faced with the suggestion of the experienced deputy mobilized from the original old army, Hojatyi knew that it should be adopted, but he could not let the soldiers stop.

Everyone is tired.

These tanks are new tanks, and the soldiers on the tank have only been familiar with each other for two months. From the training of the new recruits formed by the troops to now, it has only been four months in total. Except for some of them, the experienced Islamic armored soldiers mobilized from the old army, many of them are new recruits.

Even the running-in was not completed.

"Even if we catch up now, it will be useless. The command given to us is to arrive at Avas within ten days, and it is enough for us to travel 300 kilometers every day. We should slow down so that our soldiers are more familiar with tanks and maintain them carefully. Only in this way can we kill more invaders!" Deputy Battalion Commander Ansar himself has rich experience, and at the same time, he also studied from the instructors sent by China very seriously and discussed the tactics of tank combat between the two countries.

Every day, I absorb the knowledge from Chinese instructors like a sponge.

The Iranian army is not strong in combat, although it is equipped with advanced equipment. The Chinese People's Liberation Army has always been accustomed to using backward equipment to fight for powerful enemies. This is what they must learn.

"No, let the soldiers drive in turn. There are enough gas stations on the side of the highway to replenish fuel. We must put them into the battlefield as quickly as possible! We must let the old army see the qualities of our devout religious soldiers!" Maulah Hazari never spoke. When he saw Hojatyi, he had to agree and immediately raised an objection.

The Revolutionary Guards are a new team.

Only religious clergy are more aware of what kind of mission they are carrying. They not only need to maintain the security of the entire country, but also their Islamic teachings.

In this world, Iran is the only one.

"If these tanks run more than 2,000 kilometers long and are not well maintained, we will eventually lose a lot!" Ansar said with gritted teeth, "Chinese instructors ask us to carefully inspect and maintain them every day. Only in this way can our tanks be served longer and there will be no problems at critical moments!"

"Now these tanks have been running for six hours in a row, and have run hundreds of kilometers. Are there any problems? We should fully trust our suppliers!" Hazari retorted without hesitation.

From Shahl in Iran, these tanks have been repaired by professional technicians.

This is the logistics personnel who were assigned to China to learn maintenance from the very beginning when they were determined to purchase from China. These people were not responsible for this work, but were trained in Pakistani related to the design and manufacture of the Longwei tank.

Pakistan has invested huge funds in design and development and obtained relevant production and manufacturing authorizations, and the two countries have cooperated in this.

It is normal for Pakistani personnel to appear in Iran.

"This is indeed not, but there is still more than 2,000 kilometers behind!" Ansar didn't care that he might be dismissed for contradicting the mullah, or even sentenced. "The long-distance raid of more than 2,000 kilometers at the maximum road speed is not reliable for these Chinese tanks that have not experienced such testing! Especially their tracks, even if they are covered with a layer of carbon fiber and better rubber than ordinary tanks, when there are not enough accessories, I don't think our tanks can go through combat missions for a long time..."

"Let's talk about it first! The Chinese should have provided us with at least 100 tanks at this time, but so far, there are only more than 60. Although there are still twenty-five vehicles on the sea, I don't know when it will take to Iran. We must join the battlefield as soon as possible and resist the Iraqi attack!" Khojatyi, who was originally hesitant, also firmed up his thoughts.

They know their combat qualities.

Because of this, they should quickly enter the battlefield. Without trains, they cannot transport their tanks there from a long distance, and there are no large military transport aircraft. The only thing they can do is to run long distances!

"At least, our soldiers must be given some maintenance first! If the soldiers can carry it down, we will continue to rush..." Ansar had to take a step back.

Hojatyi and Maula looked at each other and had to agree.

Ansar, who came out of the armored troops, was more proficient than them.

Under Ansar's arrangement, the soldiers in the team who were lying lazily on the tank shell rested suddenly became busy.

The roads were not hardened, and the roads were relatively flattened dirt roads. Because of too many heavy trucks, the road pit bags were not flat, and the rubber wrapped outside the new tank tracks could easily wear out.

In the dry area, there is a lot of dust and there are enough small stones.

All of this is a serious test for expensive advanced tanks, especially these tanks in China have not yet experienced a long test. If any country had not completed the test, it would not have purchased new tanks from another country before it was fully completed.

On the Iranian plateau, it is even worse than several Chinese tank test sites.

These tanks have too many electronic systems. The electronic parts themselves are very delicate and there is a more headache-inducing hydraulic system!

"No problem, you can continue to set out. But our warriors..." After the maintenance was completed, all tanks were in good performance and in the best condition.

"Before leaving and loading the ship, the Chinese have been running-in for a long time, and the first two months of training is enough to expose many problems! Ansar, your worries are unnecessary. Let the soldiers set off!" Hojatyi was very satisfied with the report from the logistics company. "Although the weapons exported by China are not the best, at least, in terms of reliability, are still good!"

Ansar was speechless and could only continue.

Although the soldiers consume a lot of physical strength, and sitting in it for a long time, their blood cannot flow, and they are easily exhausted.

They were all fanatical religious people who contributed everything to Allah. When Allah's cause was affected and when their country was invaded by the enemy, they naturally gritted their teeth and persevered.

Under the command of the command vehicle, it took only one hour and eight minutes to complete the rest and maintenance, and the convoy set off again.

The entire convoy rushed all the way, and it was still sailing towards the western battlefield at the maximum road speed. Unless it encountered a gas station in a town on the road, it rarely stopped.

Even in the dark, the speed only dropped to fifty kilometers!

Such madness is a huge miracle for the combat history of the entire world's armored corps.

Twelve hours later, the armored convoy was already six hundred kilometers away from Shahel, Iran! If the soldiers were not unable to bear it, the crazy battalion commander and mullah would not agree to the soldiers to rest.

In the evening, after eating the unpalatable 761 compressed biscuits imported from China and drinking a lot of cold water, all the soldiers slept on the ground in military coats next to the tank.

After only six hours of rest, the tired soldiers were kicked out of their sleep by the battalion commander again.

Carry out a comprehensive overhaul of the tank in the headlights, and then refuel the tanks. After some busyness, before dawn, the huge convoy roared and set out to head straight for the west!

No one knows that half of the recruits and half of the veterans are in the fanatical armored forces, whether they are officers or soldiers, they are creating a miracle!

After the birth of a tank, the fastest miracle of raiding speed.

No one dares to do this even in the world's most powerful country. The long-term continuous operation of tanks will cause great damage to the engine. After all, an engine allows objects weighing dozens of tons to move quickly at an average speed of fifty kilometers, and for dozens of hours to rush continuously, is very harmful.

The truth is that the ignorant is fearless. Only those who are half-understand and half-do not understand can create history and miracles!

The first night was rested for six hours, and the next day, I just stopped and refueled and drove all day. After all, the tank's commander and gunner were able to drive the tank. There was no need to observe the external environment, and there was no need to prevent the enemy from suddenly appearing during the movement. From the route they were moving, there were no big cities and no huge oil refineries, Iraqi fighters could not fly such a long distance.

The next day, after driving for twenty hours in a row, the first battalion of the First Regiment, which was trained in Pakistan, was only 800 kilometers away from the battlefield.

"Continue driving, the Iraqi fighter jets can discover us during the day! Attack at night, rest during the day, and repair equipment!" Ansar didn't care about anything else now.

Now, you must observe the enemies in the sky.

Otherwise, they would have been in vain for so long after being bombed by the Iraqi air force.

In Basra, there is a huge Iraqi air force fleet stationed, and the southern refineries are the primary target of the Iraqis.

After driving forward for a distance of two hundred kilometers again, the sky began to brighten.

Under the command of the officers, the tanks left the road and hid into the valley next to them.

The yellowish-brown desert camouflage outside makes these steel monsters not easy to be discovered.

"There is only more than 300 kilometers away from Mahshahr Port and a little more than 600 kilometers away from Avas. If we arrive at Avas, we will not arrive in a short time..." Along the way, the radio on the traffic car kept receiving news from the front. At present, in addition to some of the troops receiving air defense missiles from China, the division command and large forces are in Avas, and there are two choices in front of the officers of the First Battalion.

It is very likely that they will be discovered by Iraq's fighter aircraft fleet on their way from Mahshahr Port to Avas.

All of the most advanced fighter jets of the Iranian National Defense Forces were stationed in Tehran, the capital, and participated in the war in the north, and the southern battlefield could not support it at all.

"We don't go to Avas, we will directly pass the port of Mahshahel and go to the mountainous area to the west to intercept Saddam's Tikrit Division's tank regiment!" After learning the news from the front, Ansar learned that the Tikrit Division, the most elite presidential guard of Iraq, had drawn a tank regiment equipped with Soviet T72 tanks to the front line of Basra before the war.

"We only have one battalion!" Hojatyi said with a frown.
Chapter completed!
