Chapter 805: Guderian's Army
At this time, in the Middle East, after careful study of the operational map of the Middle East and strategic deployment of the enemy situation in the face: with a fast and slow combat style, with the assistance of a large number of new fighters, bombers, and aircraft carrier fleets given by Chen Yanlong, as well as a variety of new weapons and equipment, Guderian's troops completely destroyed their front-line forces and military deployments before the British army could completely react.
"How fast are we advancing now?"
Guderian asked Heinersey, the combat staff officer beside him.
"The 8th and 10th Indian Divisions, the 2nd Indian Armoured Brigade, the 9th Armoured Brigade and the 21st Indian Infantry Brigade of the British Army; Already repulsed twice by our mechanized troops! ”
"Iran's Tabriz, Rasht, Qazvin and Rezaye, and the suburbs of Tehran were all bombed by our bomber groups in a carpeted manner!"
"We have fully occupied the port of Abadan and the airfield of Ahvaz, and have stationed the air force and army to rest and support the front-line operations!"
Operational Staff Officer Hainelsey replied.
"How's the battle going in the fields of Hanagan and Kermanshah?"
"And what about the air strikes in the port of Nzeri and Rasht, and the city of Qazvin, and around Tehran?"
Guderian listened and continued to ask.
"The 44th, 47th and 53rd armies of the Soviet army are resisting our offensive in those areas, and even the port of Shah, Gorgan, northern Khorasan province, Semnan, and Shahrud have deployed a large number of Soviet troops to garrison, including the 402nd Infantry Division, the 1st Mountain Cavalry Division, the 23rd Cavalry Division and two motorized independent regiments!"
"However, under the bombardment of our aviation units, these troops have no way to support the Soviet and British troops on the front line!"
Operational Staff Officer Hainelsey replied.
"And what happened to the air battles of our Air Forces and the British, as well as the Soviet Air Forces? Has it already controlled air supremacy throughout the Middle East? ”
Guderian continued.
"There is still a fierce battle, but the airspace in many places is controlled by our air force, and the British and Soviet air forces do not seem to have a lot of troops deployed here, and they are not as many and elite as us in terms of the number of planes and pilots!"
"Because this time, General Garland has dispatched a lot of ace air force pilots to assist us in the Middle East campaign!"
"So in the air combat situation of assistance, our air force is in the upper hand, and the air force of Britain and the Soviet Union is gradually being defeated by us! And they lost more than three times as many planes as ours! ”
Operations Staff Officer Heinelsey continued to answer.
"Speed up the advance a little, especially to control the entire Iranian oil fields as soon as possible, because large-scale battles are going on on both the eastern and western fronts to assist!"
"We want to end the war in the Middle East as soon as possible, especially the war in Iran, bring back a lot of oil for our empire to replenish, and even we need to send some troops back to support the fighting on the Western Front!"
Guderian was silent for a moment, then replied in a serious tone.
"Yes! I'll go and deliver the commander's order right away! ”
Combat staff officer Hainsy immediately saluted and agreed.
Guderian didn't say much, but sat in his tank command vehicle and commanded the army of tanks around him, advancing in a torrent of smoke and steel.
Above their heads, a large number of Il-28 bombers flew and escorted Sabre fighters; Behind them was a large army of heavily armed troops.
And in the distance in front of them, on the battlefield, was a front-line battlefield with roaring artillery fire.
But at this moment, Guderian personally commanded the large army that was fighting, but he still went to the front line of the battlefield without any fear, preparing to end the war in Iran as soon as possible.
