At noon, along a tributary of the Shatt al-Arab River 30 kilometers south of the Iranian mixed armored battalion, the exhausted Hollande and Le Pen squatted by the river, Le Pen desperately scooped up the water in the river with his arms, and then frantically sucked the river water in his hand with his mouth, but when he was halfway through drinking, a black corpse floated in front of him, although his skin had been soaked in the river water a little white, but from the clothes, it could be seen that it was an Iranian soldier who had died not long ago, but the hideous and terrifying face was staring at Le Pen upright.

Le Pen couldn't help but turn around when he saw this, and his whole body immediately began to vomit uncontrollably, and when he vomited all the remaining things in his stomach, the whole person collapsed on the edge of the riverbed as if all his strength had been drained, and the terrible corpse had already flowed away with the river

"It seems that the Iranians did not miss this opportunity and launched a counteroffensive!"

Hollande did not laugh at the cowardice of his companions, but stared at the disappearing corpse with his tired eyes, muttering to himself, at this time, Le Pen's mind calmed down a little, and then he struggled to sit up, looking back at the road he had come, only to see countless black smoke floating within a few kilometers, and the intermittent explosions also hit his eardrums, making his whole body shiver:

"Crazy, crazy, Iran is really crazy this time, do they really want to take this opportunity to completely cross the Shatt al-Arab and occupy the whole of Iraq?

Le Pen's tone when she said this was a little out of tune, after all, she knew this moment. The senior assistant at Thomson, France, has not yet completely come out of his fear

Le Pen and Hollande drove the armored command vehicle with great difficulty, and after running dozens of kilometers to the south, they thought they would be safe. Immediately came to an Iraqi forward base, ready to find some fuel and food supplies, but before the two of them could lift their legs and get out of the car, Iran's fierce counteroffensive began, and the artillery fire smashed straight down on this Iraqi forward base like an eye, and was instantly blown into a pile of rubble

However, Hollande and Le Pen still have a big life. Although they experienced two dangers, the two escaped death, and they thought that this terrible thing would be over. Unexpectedly, their nightmare had just begun, and every time they came to a place where the Iraqi army was staging, the fierce Iranian army would come at them, or the steamroller-like armored troops. Or a storm of shells.

It can be said that the entire territory of Iran on the east side of the Shatt al-Arab. There was no safe place, but with Hollande's extraordinary alertness and experience, they escaped death again and again, and just half an hour earlier, they finally broke through the Iranian fire blockade and rushed to the banks of the Shatt al-Arab, thinking that as long as they crossed the river and returned to Iraq on the other side, they would be safe. However, the corpse of the Iranian soldier that had just floated past shattered Le Pen's expectations again!

Even if he no longer understands strategy and tactics. But he was not a fool, and he knew better than anyone what the corpses of the Iranian soldiers had just died, and that it was quite possible that the Iranian army, like a tidal wave, had crossed the Shatt al-Arab, and if that was the case, the other side of the river was still dangerous

It's not just Le Pen who has this idea in mind, Hollande who is sitting next to him and smoking a cigarette is the same, but his focus is more focused on the new tank developed by China, looking back at the road of death that he has just walked, Hollande can't help but have some lingering palpitations, but as a professional soldier, he has too many questions in his heart, he admits his defeat in last night's tank battle, and also affirms the armored tactics of the Iranians,

In particular, the use of artillery to fire flares and cooperate with the Iranian armored forces that have defects in night combat is simply a stroke of genius, but in any case, he cannot understand why the firepower of the new tank developed by China is so strong, why the armor is so hard, and why the mobility is so fast

In last night's battle, he observed in detail the combat process of the new tank developed by China, and if he had not seen it with his own eyes, Hollande would not have believed that this was a high-performance tank developed by China, which was only equipped with Type 59 tanks, and its excellent combat performance could not be compared with even the third-generation tanks being installed by the United States, the Soviet Union, and other countries.

However, China's new tank not only did it, but also showed unparalleled technical and tactical advantages in actual combat, especially the fast and fierce firepower, as well as the almost perfect armor defense, like a lingering nightmare, haunting Hollande's heart, it is precisely because of this that Hollande has palpitations at the same time, but also secretly marvels that such a new tank with excellent performance is definitely a headache to deal with

Thinking of this, Hollande's body couldn't help but shudder again, but then it was masked by a self-deprecating smile, because, at this time, his mind recalled the wise words of Otto Karjus, the famous German panzer ace who destroyed 150 Allied tanks in World War II when he was stationed in Germany a few years ago:

"There is never a tank in the world that cannot be pierced, only people who can't fight!"

Hollande is also an excellent armored warfare expert anyway, so he knows the essence of this sentence, so after calmly analyzing last night's battle, he found many weaknesses of China's new tanks, such as poor night combat capabilities, such as weak armor in the rear, slow turret rotation, and so on.

However, compared with the individual performance on these vehicles, the biggest weakness of this batch of new tanks in the hands of the Iranians is that the number is too small, and after last night's high-intensity operation, its losses are not small, and the maintenance guarantee is obviously a huge problem, especially this new equipment that has just been developed, and the spare parts equipped with it must not be very many, so that the sustained combat capability of this Iranian elite armored unit will not be too long, and this is the ultimate weakness of this so-called new tank:

"Let's go, let's cross the river. I don't want to keep Daddy waiting too long!"

"Crossing the river?" Looking at Hollande, who patted his ass and stood up, Le Pen looked at him as if he were looking at a patient: "Mr. Colonel, the Iranians have probably occupied all the coasts. We're not crossing the river at this time."

Although Le Pen's words were not finished, the meaning of what she wanted to express was overflowing, and Hollande naturally understood the deep meaning, but he smiled intriguingly:

"Isn't this exactly what the 'polar bear' wants? Although the 'father' may have some trouble in his heart, I think in order to achieve the goal, the 'father' will know what to do! Moreover, the Chinese is there, and the 'father' should know very well." Because the real war has just begun"

"The real war has just begun!"

The same words also came out of Zhou Hao's mouth, and it was no one else standing in front of him. It was Major Ahmadinejad, the commander of the Iranian mixed armored battalion that he single-handedly trained, but at this time, Ahmadinejad's face was impatient with an anxious look on his face, staring straight at Zhou Hao with his neck straight. But Zhou Hao turned a blind eye to this. Still sonorous and powerful, he said:

"That's why you have to go back and fix it, and see what kind of mess you fought last night, do you really think the tank is an Arab horse? You are also a cavalryman on a horse and wielding a sword? Tell your coordination where is it? If you don't want to go back and repair it, you can drive your tank out and run another thirty kilometers to see if it breaks down?"

"This Me"

Hearing Zhou Hao talk about last night's tactical mistakes, Ahmadinejad's face couldn't help but turn red, and his straight neck also bent down. Zhou Hao was right, and he also reflected on it seriously. Last night's tank fight seemed brave and tenacious, but it went against the pre-battle plan.

As a result, the two new tanks were damaged, and several other tanks were damaged, coupled with the high-intensity continuous combat and the harsh desert mirage, resulting in mechanical failures and other factors, when they reached the banks of the Shatt al-Arab,

In the entire mixed armored battalion, the number of new tanks that can be used normally has dropped to four, and the magic 59 "Jaguar" tank is still better, but only 14 can barely move, therefore, repair is inevitable, just looking at the offensive of the Iranian army, Ahmadinejad is very unwilling,

But after listening to Zhou Hao's words, he also knew that the facts were the facts, and in the end he could only bow his head with a helpless look, but at this moment, he only felt that his shoulder was gently patted, and then a slightly stiff Persian language changed into his ears:

"You don't have to worry, the field maintenance of our tank is still very convenient, and in less than 48 hours, your armored battalion will be fully equipped again!"

"Mr. Lu, don't lie to me!" The person who spoke to him was none other than Lu Jiadong, and after listening to Ahmadinejad's words, Lu Jiadong couldn't help but smile confidently:

"If I'm going to lie to you, you'll take back all the M60T main battle tanks that were given to me!"

"I believe, I believe!" Ahmadinejad nodded excitedly, all repairs in 48 hours are impossible, but he believes that this young Chinese man in front of him can definitely create miracles:

"I swear to Allah and believe it absolutely!"

Just as Ahmadinejad's voice fell, a jeep stopped steadily beside everyone, and then a young man jumped out of the car and came to Lu Jiadong's side to stand upright:

"Chief Master Lu, Liao Shaoqing reports to you!"

"Did you bring everything?"

"Eight 52 times caliber 155mm plus howitzers, and eighty 155mm terminal shells will arrive soon, but the Iranian artillery commander has put pressure on us to give us Team Leader Qian"

"Understood, it's to be overhauled quickly, right? No problem, the artillery itself should be fast, but the components of the terminal bullet may be a little troublesome, but the equipment at hand is quite complete now, and 72 hours should be about the same."

"Only 72 hours!" At the same time, at the headquarters of the Iraqi Republican Guard in Baghdad, a British soldier dressed in the uniform of a Soviet major general, pointed to the military map on the wall, and with unparalleled confidence, said to everyone present:

"Iraq's Republican Guard, armed with all Soviet-style weapons, could flood Iran's oil-producing areas centered on Khoram Shahr like a tidal wave" (To be continued). )
