Chapter 1004: The Power of Air Transport

"Boom!" When the bomb landed, the bomb burst into brilliant fireworks on the ground, illuminating the surroundings so brightly that it could be seen clearly from several kilometers away.

"We've been bombed!" In the basement of the royal palace, listening to the report of his minister, Reza Khan gritted his teeth with hatred: "The Soviets dare to declare war against us, this is a challenge to our entire Iranian people, we must drive out the invaders!" ”

As he spoke, he turned to the German ambassador and said, "Thank you for the timely reminder that if we hadn't controlled the lights, it would have been bombed to our capital by the Soviets!" ”

The Soviets dared to drop bombs on Tehran, and if the lights were not controlled in time, Tehran would probably have been bombed, and even the slightest loss of life and property would not have been tolerated.

And now, almost all of the Soviets' bombs exploded in the suburbs, and some even exploded in the distant mountains, more than a dozen kilometers away from here.

"Our country is currently actively organizing transport forces, and the earliest planes will fly to Tehran before dawn, but it will take about two days to get into battle." The German ambassador continued: "For these two days, it is hoped that the troops at the front will be able to hold out. ”

This time it was an infantry division, but even if it was an infantry division, it had heavy equipment, such as divisional artillery, etc., and now, after learning that the Soviet Union had launched an invasion war, Germany had moved quickly, and the early troops were about to arrive, and even then, it would have to be repaired before it could be fought.

"We're going to hold on!" King Reza Khan said: "We will hold out until our compatriots come." ”

The eastern sky is slowly brightening, and the whole of Iran is broadcasting the speech of His Majesty the King.

"Last night we received the shocking news that, without warning, the Soviet Union had dispatched its troops and launched a fierce attack on us on the border! This kind of undeclared war is a serious violation of the sovereignty of our entire Iran, and we will never give in and will fight to the end! ”

"At this critical juncture, we have the support of our compatriots of the same origin as us, and we will definitely be able to drive the invading Soviets away! All Iranians, take action and contribute your strength to drive out the Soviet invaders! ”

His Majesty's voice is full of confidence, after all, they have a strong supporter, and Germany has never lost until now, not before, and never will!

Tehran Airport.

In the early morning, the airport still has a hazy fog, surrounded by mountains, and the take-off and landing of the airport here must allow the pilots to concentrate.

The airport has been put under martial law by the soldiers, and some high-ranking officials, standing on the runway of the airport, looking at the sky in the distance, are waiting with their heads in anticipation.

"Boom, boom." In the distant sky, there was a thunderous sound, and suddenly, they were all excited, arrived, arrived!

I saw that in the western sky, there were several bright spots, which gradually became clear as the bright spots continued to approach, and at the same time, more bright spots appeared behind.

A couple of small planes around, which are fighters of the Iranian Air Force, escort the entire route, and in the center, Atlantic airliners!

In future generations, the United States can deploy and reach the whole world, relying on their advanced air transport capabilities, and those giant bombers can only be equipped by the United States, and where there is a situation, they can be reached.

A large amount of equipment, or by water, but if the waterway bypasses, it will take at least ten days and half a month, the military situation is urgent, and it will not be able to catch up at all, and now, the German Atlantic airliner can be requisitioned at any time when it is civilian, and when it is needed!

Now, 20 Atlantic airliners in Germany have been requisitioned, and these 20 large airliners have been able to transport the 167th Infantry Division in an organized manner!

At the same time, the transport planes improved by the Atlantic airliners are also on the way to follow, and these transport planes are transporting the heavy equipment, vehicles, and support artillery of the infantry division, but the capacity is limited, and there are many trips.

The wheels of the Atlantic airliner, gently touching the ground, slid down the runway for several hundred meters, gently sliding into the tarmac on one side.

Just this one action showed the skillfulness of the training, and at this time, the passenger plane behind had already fallen, and it was not a waste of time at all.

This is definitely the result of many trainings in the Air Force.

The plane stopped, the cabin door opened, and a group of soldiers, running down from above.

When a group of soldiers came down, at the door of the cabin, an officer stood up, and the star on his shoulder shone brightly.

"General Modell, welcome." Below, Mohammad Frugi, the commander of Iran's armed forces, with a large group of people, pays tribute to Moder.

"Well, it's urgent right now." "The pre-planned military exercises and military parades were immediately canceled, and our troops, immediately moving north, prepared to ambush the Soviets," Moder said. Please requisition all your cars so that we can have enough transport capacity. ”

Originally, it was intended to use exercises and military parades to tell the Soviets not to make trouble in Iran, but now that it has happened, this intimidation has lost its effect.

Now, the Soviets should not know that the German army has entered Tehran, so take advantage of this opportunity to teach the Soviets a hard lesson and eat their vanguard.

Modell is here to fight, and here, he has the right to make decisions, the military situation is urgent, he can make his own decisions, and he doesn't have to report everything to the base camp.

In the airport, transport planes and passenger planes are still landing in turn, constantly transporting personnel down, and at the same time, in a building not far from the airport, a temporary command center has been set up, and Moder has entered the working state after getting off the plane.

The battle situation is developing rapidly, and looking at the latest progress, Moder feels that his troops are insufficient.

The Soviets, divided into three routes, the westernmost one, crossed the Aras River in the Nakhichvan region of southern Azerbaijan and entered Iranian territory, occupied Maku and Hoy, and then marched east through Tabriz.

500 kilometers to the east, another Soviet column marched east along the southern shore of the Caspian Sea, with the goal of capturing the port of Nzeri and Rasht, and approaching the city of Qazvin, preparing to join the First Route Army.

The 3rd Route Soviet Army landed at the port of Shah, captured the northern part of the provinces of Gorgan and Khorasan, and prepared to advance towards the railway junction of Semnan and Shahrud.

The movement of the Soviets was very strong, almost as powerful as the German blitzkrieg, and it seemed that overnight, the northern part of Iran was about to fall! Tehran, even more, will be conquered in a few days.

The Soviets want to destroy Iran in one fell swoop, or they want to hold Iran in their hands! However, since they are here, the Iranians are doomed!

Modell's hand was pointed at a position: "Let's start with Qazvin!" ”
