At this moment, all the tanks and armored vehicles on the southern front on the battlefield between Iran and Iraq were mobilized.

The number of Iraqi tanks, more than 420, and more than 500 armored vehicles, rushed towards the Iranian positions on a front of more than 10 kilometers.

On the Iranian side, more than 370 tanks and more than 400 armored vehicles also pounced on the invaders in three clusters.

The distance between the two sides, as time goes on, and the dust grows larger, is constantly shrinking.

"Stop!" Arriving at the initial combat area, Ansar issued an order with a serious expression, and this order was issued by Mullah Hazari beside him. Khojaty, the regimental commander who was supposed to be in the command post, got on a command tank of the Ryonwei II, and he was going to personally lead the first battalion of the 1st regiment in the charge.

"The second battalion, the third battalion, the defensive formation is deployed! The 1st Battalion, stop advancing, take the center and respond, the armored vehicle unit, spread out towards the tank troops, keep your distance, pay attention to concealment! Ansar's orders were issued in a string.

He had no way to command the tanks next to him, which were not the equipment of the Revolutionary Guards, but of the Wehrmacht.

In this battle, the armored regiment of the Revolutionary Guards was the absolute main force. Although the Patton tank from the United States and the Chieftain tank from the United Kingdom surpass the Dragon Guard tank, they cannot be compared with the lighter Dragon Guard tank in terms of advanced level, defense, and even firepower.

On the Iranian side, most of them are equipped with second-generation tanks, although the weight of the chieftain is close to sixty tons, regardless of the caliber of the tank gun. Or the internal environment, it can't be compared with the third generation tank. It is simply impossible to penetrate the defenses of the T72, let alone the more advanced T64 and the American M1.

"Hazari. Please inform the friendly forces that are moving towards us, the Iraqis have more tanks and armor than us, and we can only concentrate on destroying one of their clusters and then go and eat the tanks next to us! Both sides let them leave a part of the tanks to contain ...... "Ansar's command ability is beyond doubt."

Hazari didn't care about the tone of the other man's tone now.

The situation on the front line, which was constantly reported back by reconnaissance armored vehicles, was only less than eight kilometers between the two sides. The range of the tank's high-explosive shells had been reached here, but neither side was the first to fire.

Three generations of tanks with thick skin and thick skin, at such a distance. It is simply impossible to impress the defenses, unless it is a large-scale saturation shelling by heavy artillery, and it is possible to achieve some results.

The Iraqi commanders are not fools, they will not fight a war where tanks on the Iranian side will be able to receive heavy artillery support.

Therefore, the tank combat of both sides will basically not encounter the support of artillery units, and once the artillery units appear, the other side will have to retreat, looking forward to fighting again!

"Contact is coming. Mr. Liu, should our artillery be dispatched? "Get intelligence from the front, Aal. Teddell asked Liu Suxue, who was drinking tea with the old god.

Liu Suxue shook his head, "The artillery should move towards the Shadaigan area. Once there is a result here, that side should be the main battlefield, otherwise. Unable to clear Mahshahr and unable to counterattack Darkhoven......"

Artillery units cannot appear on this side. Being able to effectively bully armored vehicles does not mean that you can deal with tanks with thick skin and thick flesh.

"But. In this way, our tank forces ......"

"There's nothing to be had. You should have full confidence in the Dragon Guard tank. Before that, our tanks had shelled with 152 shells, and such high-powered shells could not penetrate the defenses of the Dragon Guard tanks. The Iranian side has the most advanced tanks of the United States and the Soviet Union, ours can resist, why can't they? Liu Suxue rudely interrupted the other party's words.

And then nothing more was said.

As long as the Iraqi side did not have the support of armored forces, their army would not be so strong.

Aller. Teddell frowned and began to dispatch a counterattack.

40,000 Iranian Revolutionary Guards, 60,000 old troops, began the final preparations before the big war.

Tank tank rocket launchers from China were distributed to each infantry squad, each squad, seven anti-tank armor-piercing shells, and again, 62 rocket launchers and 40 fires, which were most popular among the Middle Easterners.

"Boom!"

The Iraqis, knowing that the other side had stopped, waited for their arrival, and in the last few kilometers, stopped at maximum speed towards the other side, charging fiercely at their tanks with barrels.

While both sides looked at each other, the rushing Iraqi tank units stopped, and then quickly raised their barrels, and before they could fire, the first round of strikes from the other side had already begun!

"Fire! them hard! At this time, the superfluous command was useless, and Qasim was in the command vehicle in the rear, and after getting the information, he gave the order.

Hundreds of tanks lined up, and then the barrels began to rise, and they opened heavy fire on the enemy, who was only a little more than two kilometers away.

There is no need to aim, and the dense tank formation allows the gun commanders on both sides to quickly press the shell launch button.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! A series of explosions began to cause flames and white smoke to erupt from the barrel of the tank, and the battle began in the dust.

"Rush forward! With armor shells! The 1st Battalion continues to be on standby! "After two rounds of firing on both sides, nothing was achieved at all.

High-explosive shells, unable to break through defenses.

The opponent's tanks are also unable to penetrate the defenses of the Dragon Guardian type!

Ansar didn't even have a judgment after learning about the situation, so he gave a confusing order.

"Let all the tanks move!" Chinese tanks need to fire on the move, which can effectively increase defense, make it difficult for the enemy to aim, and the fire control system on this can assist the tank in firing in action.

The same is true of the M1 type tanks of the Americans.

The Soviet T64 also had such capabilities.

At the beginning of the contact, the tanks on the two flanks did not maneuver quickly, but stopped in place, shelling each other with shells. Both the British chieftain and the American Patton were tank guns with only 105 mm and could not use tungsten core tail shells from China.

The British, naturally, at this time will not supply Iran.

Not long after the war began, more than a dozen Pattons were burned into burning scrap metal after a few hits from the opponent's T72.

If it weren't for the fact that the other side did not have many T72s, the war would have ended at the beginning of the war.

Iraq was more equipped with T54/T55 from the Soviet Union. Therefore, the two sides are also evenly matched.

"Ansar, the right wing has scrapped eight taels of M48, two Chieftain ......"

"Don't worry about the two wings, our main battlefield is the middle position!" Ansar said through gritted teeth. He was not a front-line commander, but only a temporary commander of the 1st regiment.

Moreover, as a front-line commander, Ale. Teddell, as if he had no will to command, let them fight like a scattered sand.

In the area more than 20 kilometers northeast of Darkhoven, it was the main battlefield of this tank battle, and in the middle was the most elite and advanced tank unit, the 1st Regiment of the Tikrit Division of the Iraqi Presidential Guard, against the most elite armored regiment of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. Both sides are top-of-the-line third-generation tanks.

And on the two flanks of the middle battlefield, it is different.

Both sides are some second-generation tanks, only the Iraqi side has a significant number of T72s, and these are the main forces in the war.

"Let the infantry get off and the armored car back! Tank cover, rush to the front and take them out with a bazooka! "On the eastern flank, more than two dozen T72s constantly turned the Patton tanks on the Iranian side into a fireball.

Commander Meshari's eyes were red.

Their tank defense is not good, and the old tanks of the Americans are simply not effective against the 125-mm tank guns of the Soviets.

"Commander, you can't do this, if our infantry doesn't have the cover of armored vehicles, the opponent's tank machine guns can turn them into minced meat!" The staff officer struggled to persuade the above-appointed commander, "Moreover, Colonel Khojateyi told us to leave a small number to contain them and move closer to them......"

"Leave a small part? How to stay? As soon as we retreat, the other side will chase after us and gradually take out us, and when the time comes, we will not be able to fight back at all. After finishing speaking, he picked up the walkie-talkie for command and ordered all the tank commanders: "All units pay attention, organize defense on the spot, and kill them fiercely for me!" Coordinated bazooka soldiers, rush up and take out the opposing tank! Allah bless us! ”

With Mesharyi's order, they were still fighting separately, and some of the tanks that were evading the enemy's blow spread out to both sides stopped, and then the tank body turned, and the front of the car was facing the direction of the Iraqi tank, and the turret could also be turned.

As if discovering the situation on the Iranian side, the same is true on the Iraqi side, the tanks stopped, the T72 moved forward, forming the first defensive position, and the T55 and T54 behind also began to move towards this position, and then stopped.

"Boom!"

The battlefield, which had just been quiet for a moment, became hot again with the sound of a cannon being discharged.

The back door of the armored car, which was originally mixed with the tank team, opened, and countless Iranian tank crews jumped down with bazookas, and soon crawled on the ground, ready to rush towards the opposite Iraqi position under the cover of the tanks that were slowly moving towards the wall.

These anti-tank rocket launchers in their hands have been tested in war.

Against the T72, an advanced third-generation tank, it has great power!

As the armored vehicle retreated, many infantry were blown into a pile of minced flesh and blood mist by the dense bullets fired from the opposite side and the small shells on the armored vehicle.

"Heavy, cover!" (To be continued.) )
