Chapter 117: For the sake of victory, everything can be abandoned

The surrounding fires are still shining, and this sneak attack has come to an end.

The casualty figures were constantly reported, and the enemy in the city, at the same time, launched a total of 63 attacks, the largest of which was to attack the headquarters here, to attack the tank station, and each attack was covered by artillery fire, and the smallest attack was only a shell, some even flew away, causing no damage, and some were very unfortunate, such as the maintenance unit was blown up and the tanker truck was blown up, and the losses were heavy.

General Novikov looked at the mess all over the ground, looked at Major Dmitry Lav with fire in his eyes, and just said lightly: "Put our tanks out and fire a salvo of ten shells." ”

At this time, it is absolutely unwise to rush into the city, the people inside must be ready, in the dark, the advantage of the tank is not obvious, on the contrary, it will become a target and be easily destroyed by the opponent.

So, General Novikov did not agree to Dmitrylav's request.

Major Dmitry Lav, who was holding his breath, returned to his unit and conveyed the orders of his superiors.

"Shoot inside the city!"

Shoot!

The tank troops, too, are extremely angry, they were attacked by a sneak attack!

When the other party's rockets flew, they were all asleep, and there were cavalry guards outside, and they were too tired, so there was no one to sentry at all, and just like that, they were greeted directly by the shells.

At the same time, when they were attacked, their reaction was also extremely quick, jumping on the tank, starting it, the gun commander turned the turret, but could not find the target.

It is true that they can't find the target, the other party's shooting is a few kilometers away, and if they can't see a clear fire, they can't determine the location, and the other party is all hitting and running!

Now, at last, I have received the order to fire directly into the city!

One by one, the tanks raised their barrels, and the loader stuffed 76 mm grenades into the barrels until the commander gave a clear command: "Fire!" ”

"Boom!" At the muzzle, a huge flame came out, and in the front part of the flame, a 76 mm grenade, flew out of the muzzle and flew into the city!

One by one, the tank guns opened fire together, and the entire tank crew's position was violently trembling.

"Boom!" The shells fell on the houses, on the streets, on the land of the city, blowing up big craters, and the ground was shaking.

"The Soviets are calm enough to not chase after them." In a basement in Qazvin City, a group of generals were laughing and communicating.

The tactics of sneak attack with rocket artillery, hit and run, made the Iranians an eye-opener, they were quite interested in the combat methods of the German army, and some people were already suggesting that the German equipment should be fully introduced and the German armament division should be formed.

However, later, the German side put forward a request, and there was no problem with the introduction of German equipment, but it was necessary for German instructors to train.

This matter was talked about after the war, at least for now, the aimless artillery attacks of the Soviets made everyone present feel relaxed, and an enraged opponent was not terrible, and it was difficult to deal with a deep and sophisticated opponent.

Moder did not discuss these issues, and he was still thinking about how he could kill and injure a large number of Soviets in the coming street battles in the coming street battles with minimal casualties on his own.

Fortifications, fortresses, these are the most important, rational arrangement of firing points, effective use of one's own weapons and personnel, to achieve the optimal combination, Moder is to consider both strategy and tactics.

"General, the latest intelligence." A staff officer hurried in and handed the telegram to Modell.

When he got the telegram, Modell's face suddenly changed.

The 402 Infantry Division of the Soviets, which is rushing in, has now passed through Tabriz and will reach Qazvin tomorrow!

Now, the forces inside the city of Qazvin, against the existing tank brigades and cavalry divisions of the Soviets, are enough, however, if one more infantry division is added, it is different.

In street fighting, it is an immutable truth that there are more people and more power, and the comparison is who has more guns and whose guns are faster!

The sudden increase in this infantry division will make Qazvin's situation critical!

What to do? Do you want to give up Qazvin? If this place is abandoned, then the Soviets will drive straight in, and the military summit will be directed at Tehran!

The whole basement fell silent, everyone looked at Moder, and they all realized that the situation had become complicated this time, but they were more convinced that Moder would have a way!

Moder looked at the large-scale map on the wall, carefully observed, observed, and finally, he made up his mind: "Order, send Stuka bombers to blow up the bridge over the Uzan River near Miane, it must be completely blown up, and there is no possibility of repair." ”

Hearing Moder's words, an Iranian officer immediately became anxious: "No, that bridge, we spent a lot of money to build, and it has been less than five years since it was put into use!" ”

"Major General, pay attention to your thinking, it is a time of war, the bridge can be rebuilt if it is destroyed, if the Soviets pounce, then our city of Qazvin will be lost, we will kill and wound thousands of soldiers, compared to the lives of these soldiers, a bridge is nothing! If you don't think it's appropriate, then I order you to lead a detachment of troops to block the Soviet infantry divisions that are coming in with reinforcements? ”

The Iranian major general finally stopped talking, and Moder's face was still serious: "Is this a war, or may it turn into a war of annihilation, which is related to the life and death of Iran, and everything can be separated!" ”

Up to now, the minds of these Iranians still don't turn, if they hadn't brought someone over, the Soviets would have really been able to hit Tehran! Modell has convinced them of these guys, and still doesn't even understand what war is.

The moon and stars are scarce, and driving at night in this kind of night is nothing.

The Soviet 402nd Infantry Division, which belonged to the Transcaucasian Military District of the Soviets, did not intend to participate in the war of invasion of Iran, for whom the invasion of Iran was just a matter of fingers.

As a result, a reorganized cavalry division was wiped out in the valley, and the Soviet top brass immediately realized that something was wrong, and reinforcements were ordered.

The 402nd Infantry Division is the most mobile in the entire Transcaucasian Military District, because they are fully equipped with cars and belong to the motorized infantry division.
