At five o'clock in the morning, when the sun was still below the horizon and only a little light was shy to be revealed, on the Gobi Desert southwest of Isla, a force was slowly advancing towards Isla.

The ground attack of the US military is different from the previous air attack, after all, the previous air attack, even if there is the participation of stealth bombers, the aircraft during the daytime operation itself is very vulnerable to the counterattack of anti-aircraft artillery fire, and there will be no need to lose its own air power, so it must use the cover of nightfall; but now it is a ground attack, in order to better distinguish the terrain and the will, it will be better during the day.

This attack on Isla is the 163rd Infantry Battalion under the 1st Armored Division of the US Middle East Expeditionary Force, and it is also very legendary to talk about this infantry battalion, he is part of the Desert Tiger Infantry Regiment.

As the sharp knife unit of the Desert Tigers, this infantry battalion was formed by the legendary American General Patton during World War II, and followed General Patton to land in Morocco and the United States and Britain to flank the German and Italian forces.

Later, Patton was promoted to four-star general, and with his help, this unit formed by him and created a legend in World War II naturally received the title of Desert Tiger.

Then this unit was left in the Middle East and made great contributions to the previous military operations of the US military, so this Gulf War against Iraq, this desert tiger, as the unit most familiar with the environment here, was naturally regarded as a vanguard force. Now that Isra is the gateway to Basra, the U.S. military has sent its most elite troops.

According to the American establishment, the 163 infantry battalion has a total of 1,200 people, and the commander is Lieutenant Colonel Arthur, after he led his troops to the outside of Isla, he set up howitzers in accordance with the combat regulations used by the US military to shell Isla first, and after dropping enough ammunition, Arthur raised his binoculars to observe a little, and then gave the order for an assault.

However, this order was questioned by Franks, the staff officer of the army: "Lieutenant colonel, I don't think we should blindly carry out a surprise attack, because the situation in Isra is very strange, all the cities where we have attacked the Iraqi army along the way, there will be many troops coming out to surrender, but there is no here, I don't believe that such an important city will not be guarded by troops, especially when the air force detected the enemy coming to reinforce yesterday." ”

In the face of doubt, Arthur smiled disdainfully: "Boy, are you teaching me how to fight? Tell you, those thoughts of yours were all in the face of an army that has the will to resist, but now, our enemy has announced his surrender, and we are now not fighting, but occupying, you know? It's like facing a bitch who has been stripped naked and has become wet to the point of exploding, do you want to be bored to flirt again?"

"So, please forget all the theories you studied in the military school, which will only bind you to be a stupid Hamlet! Now all you have to do is sing the song that the Iraqi army is a big girl who only runs away and begs for mercy!" Arthur laughed.

After reprimanding the young staff officer, Arthur led a team of 400 men and marched straight for Isra under the cover of three Apache helicopter gunships and twenty tanks and armored vehicles.

At the same time, on a small two-story building at the entrance to Isla, a telescope was carefully observing the every move of the US military, holding the telescope was a Chinese soldier wearing desert camouflage, named Qian Jun, the captain of the desert team sent by Zhou Ming, and behind him were five other members of the desert team, as well as four Iraqi soldiers.

"A turtle son, it seems that these Yankees really have no other skills, they only know how to bombard indiscriminately with artillery, and then drive a tank and rush with their heads, which is too unsophisticated. Qian Jun scolded, seemingly very dissatisfied with the single offensive method of the US army.

Qian Jun looked down on the US Army, but the four Iraqi soldiers were frightened, they shouted at Qian Jun, Qian Jun did not understand, until the translator who knew Chinese spoke Qian Jun understood that they were going to fire at the US troops and could not let them enter the city.

Qian Jun smiled at this: "That's why you were beaten so badly by the Americans, let's teach you how to fight." The order went down, and the units continued to lurk, let the American troops enter the city, even if the tanks ran over them, do not move, and wait for my orders. ”

"What order?" the Iraqi soldier was a little confused.

"I fired the first shot, and as soon as I heard an exchange of fire, it was the clarion call for our attack. Qian Jun said.

The four Iraqi soldiers obviously did not understand Qian Jun's way of thinking from the East, and Qian Jun did not explain much about this, because they didn't know what it meant to put them in and fight, so they definitely didn't know how to seize the best fighters, so they could only give this kind of crudest order.

Jacion and Baker's unit were the first to receive the order, and Baker was surprised, "Why let the enemy in? Isn't our mission to guard this place?"

Yasion said: "This is also a guard, and it is also a good way, because we came all the way, you see that other places are bombed by the Americans, and before we see the enemy, our own people are about to die, but now, you see that we are lurking according to their requirements, and in the face of the enemy's first round of grenade bombardment, no one was injured, so I have a hunch that these Chinese people can lead us to win this battle." ”

In the city of Isla, while the Qian army ordered the Iraqi army to begin the arrangement, Arthur's troops outside the city had already begun to enter the city.

Walking through the deserted streets of Isla, Arthur also felt that something was wrong, so he picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand: "Black bird in the sky, go inside and check it carefully for me to see if there is anyone hiding in this city, and if so, tell me with missiles." ”

Receiving the order, the Apache helicopter gunship quickly raised its altitude and began to inspect the entire city of Isla, and ten minutes later Arthur replied that it was indeed an empty city.

"Damn, have all those timid Iraqis really fled?" Lieutenant Colonel Arthur gave the order scoldingly, "Then the troops will disperse and occupy all the key points, and at the same time ensure the absolute clearance of the city!"

Under Arthur's orders, his troops were divided into eight parts and scattered in different directions, of course, Arthur, as the commander of the troops, naturally left a maximum of ninety people with him, as well as four tanks and an armored vehicle to ensure his own safety.

Condescendingly, Qian Jun happened to observe the movements of Arthur and his army, and couldn't help but laugh: "It's a division of troops, so I'm going to teach you a good lesson next." ”

As he spoke, Qian Jun came down from the stairs, and he and the remaining five members of the desert team came to the front of the path of Arthur's troops through the tunnel with their interpreters, and set up rockets.

Qian Jun's last chosen location was the corner of a street, lined with temple walls, when Arthur's tank at the forefront appeared in Qian Jun's field of vision five minutes later, Qian Jun was still unhurried, until the last tank of the other side drove over, he did not hesitate to give the order to fire, and at the same time detonated the remote-controlled mine that had been buried in the middle of the road early.

Rumble!

As a huge explosion sounded in Isla, as if some seal had been unlocked for this 'empty city', a violent explosion rang out throughout the city.

Isla is less than five kilometers away from Basra, and the battle situation on Isla's side can still be felt in Basra, so when the Qian army gave the order to open fire, Zou Yue, the commander-in-chief who had been wandering around the room, immediately came to the window and looked in the direction of Isla, his hand was tightly grasping the window sill, and the expression on his face was very serious.

This is undoubtedly a manifestation of Zou Yue's worry, after all, the opponent is the most powerful army in the world now, if he is with the Huaxia army, then there must be a fight, but these soldiers who have only been trained for less than a month are difficult for him to have any confidence.

At this moment, in the city of Isla, rockets shot straight out from the windows next to the streets, and one after another smashed into the tanks and armored vehicles of the Desert Tiger Infantry Battalion as if they had eyes, and immediately turned them into a burning pile of broken copper.

"Enemy attack, this is the Desert Tiger Infantry Battalion, we have been ambushed by the Iraqi army in Isla, and now we have suffered heavy losses, now we are asking for reinforcements, a lot of support!" Lieutenant Colonel Arthur shouted to the rear in an emotional voice.

The helicopter gunship hovering in the air immediately dropped its altitude to support Lieutenant Colonel Arthur, and at this moment, three anti-aircraft rockets flew towards the Apache helicopter in the sky with a long tail, and then saw three fireballs fall towards Arthur, and after a bang, the lieutenant colonel was ambushed and died.

"Let's fight these wolf cubs who have entered the trap, and remember that you can kill the enemy with one shot!"

With these strange orders of Qian Jun, the barrels of the black holes were stretched out of the window, and a salvo was fired at the panicked American soldiers below, and then in the crackling gunshots, all the American soldiers fell down one by one like cutting leeks.

"God, it's all sharpshooters on the other side, run!"

"Oh no, what we need is more powerful firepower to fight back! These ambushes are definitely not Iraqi troops, they must be the most powerful special forces!"

These two cries kept rolling back and forth among the intruding American soldiers, and due to the absence of commanders, the remaining troops were all scurrying around like headless flies, only to be picked up one by one by the snipers hiding in the shadows.

Surprise arose not only from the Americans, but also from the Iraqi soldiers: "Damn! What kind of bullet is this, I can shoot so accurately the first time, if I can do this in the future, then I will definitely become the best sniper, as long as anyone appears in front of me, I can kill him immediately!"

For the joy and excitement of these Iraqi soldiers, Qian Jun clearly struck while the iron was hot: "That's right, you are all the strongest, but now, the Americans outside still want to come in and save their companions, and our second battle has begun!"

With Qian Jun's words, all the Iraqi soldiers also saw the soldiers of the remaining 163rd Infantry Battalion, which had been used as reserves, outside rushing towards Isra under the leadership of tank armored vehicles, and the howitzers were unusable due to the cross-cutting of enemy and enemy. Compared to Arthur's assault before, this time the situation was different, because they had only arrived at the gate of the city this time, and the Qian army ordered to detonate the mines at the gate.

Rumble!

A black mushroom cloud was blown out at the gate of the city of Isla, looking at the mushroom cloud, Zou Yue waved his arms excitedly in Basra's office: Win, we ambushed the vanguard of the Americans, but this is only the first battle, there will be more powerful ones later!
