On the northern Iranian front, the headquarters of the Caucasian Front of the Russian army, moved with the Russian 51st Army. The two tank divisions of the 47th Army served as the vanguard, while the huge forces of the 51st Army annihilated the Iraqi troops who were scattered by the tank units.

At least, judging by the current situation, the Caucasian Front fought very well in this battle. The 44th, 45th, and 46th armies, the 1st and 2nd armies of the Turkish Army, which fought in eastern Turkey, suffered heavy losses and retreated. The 47th and 51st armies routed the Iranian Army's 1st and 2nd armies in northern Iran. Everything is moving in favor of the Russian army.

"Comrade Commander, the Iranians were completely defeated by us. We have captured more than 100,000 Iranians. A large number of Iranians are fleeing. According to the information we have obtained, Tabriz will be the direction in which these Iranians will retreat. They tried to flee there and continue to hold us back. The Chief of Staff, Major General Tor Buhin, smiled on his face.

In this war, the Russian army rarely wins. Although they have only defeated the Turks and Iranians now, this is also a rare victory! If Comrade Joseph can be satisfied, then everyone will be of great benefit.

Lieutenant General Kozlov nodded: "Let the 6th and 54th tank divisions speed up and move in the direction of Tabriz." Deal with the main forces of the Iranians before they retreat there. In this case, the northern part of Iran will open the door, and they will no longer have the strength to stop us from crossing the Zarogos Mountains! ”

In the opinion of Lieutenant General Kozlov, it is undoubtedly much less difficult to defeat the Iranians than to climb the Zarogos Mountains. If they want to get through the difficult Zagros Mountains quickly, that's the big problem they need to face. Therefore, before that, the Russian army must defeat the Iranian army as soon as possible, so as to buy them enough time.

"Yes, Comrade Commander." Major General Tor Bukhin nodded.

"By the way, the Turkish direction, let the 44th, 45th and 46th armies, continue to maintain pressure on them. If the Turks can be eliminated, then it will be the best. Even if we can't, we must hold them back, and we can't let them interfere with the battle on our side! Lieutenant General Kozlov said.

The 44th, 45th and 46th armies were still too small in strength. It will be too difficult to defeat Turkey on their own. Therefore, Lieutenant General Kozlov's goal at the beginning was to use these three army groups to drag down the Turks. The troops that really wanted to complete the combat mission assigned by Joseph were still the 47th Army and the 51st Army.

"Yes, Comrade Commander."

At this time, Major General Shamanin of the military administration of the front military walked in with a serious face.

"Comrade Commander, the latest order from Moscow!" Major General Shamanin handed the telegram to Lieutenant General Kozlov.

Lieutenant General Kozlov took the telegram and looked at it, and his face immediately became very ugly. The Germans actually quickly mobilized two army groups to reinforce the Middle East, and the rapid response was completely beyond their expectations.

Major General Tor Bukhin also read the contents of the telegram, and his face was also ugly.

They all knew that if the Germans rushed to the battlefield, their so-called advantage would disappear immediately. The outcome of this battle seems to be doomed.

"Comrade Commander, the situation is critical now, what should we do?" Major General Shamanin asked.

"We have to hurry. Before the Germans arrived, the Iranians had to be crushed, the Zagros Mountains crossed, and then Iraq swept across and advanced to Kuwait! Lieutenant General Kozlov said.

But Major General Shamanin and Major General Torbukhin could not help frowning, it was obvious that they did not believe that the Caucasian Front would be able to complete these combat missions in just half a month. The final result is most likely that they have not yet reached Kuwait, but the Germans have landed. When the time comes, they will face an attack by hundreds of thousands of elite troops of the German army.

Even the Caucasian Front, in its heyday, was absolutely unable to withstand the attack of the two German armies. Not to mention after a series of hard battles and long marches. It is conceivable what the outcome will be at that time.

However, Joseph had already given the order, and would they still be able to disobey? Or do they have the audacity to disobey? Therefore, even if they know that they are invincible, they can only bite the bullet!

"Order the whole army, at all costs!" Lieutenant General Kozlov ordered.

"At all costs, drag the Russian army! Reinforcements from our German allies, already on the way. As long as we hold on for another half a month, we will win! The commander of the 1st Army of the Iranian Army said to the generals below.

Although, they have been defeated by the Russians. But King Reza? Khan had given a death order to hold their ground. If the Russians were not able to be held back, none of their generals would have ended well.

This makes these generals, knowing that they are not opponents of the Russians, but there is no other way.

Reza? King Khan also had no choice, the Germans had already given him the most severe warning, if he could not hold back the Russians, he would have to consider another person as king. Such a result for Reza? For King Khan, it is undoubtedly absolutely unacceptable.

Although, after becoming a German protectorate, everything had to be listened to by the Germans. But as a king, he still has a lot of power. If it is overthrown by the Germans, then there is nothing. So, Reza? The Khan king did not dare to have any reservations anymore and demanded that the army do its best.

In such a situation, the Iranian army on the front line can only desperately block the Russian army.

Not only that, but other units of the Iranian Army were also ordered to rush to the front. Although it will take quite a bit of time, the Shah of Iran, Reza? Khan can only use dead horses as live horse doctors.

The desperate resistance of the Iranian army has also brought a lot of trouble to the Russian army. Although they were still unable to withstand the attack of the Russian army. But it allows the Russian army to spend more time to defeat them. In this way, it undoubtedly played a role in delaying the Russian army.

At the same time, at the other end of the Zagros Mountains, the Iraqi Army's 1st Army, is also beginning to be deployed. They received an order to use the terrain to build blocking positions to block the Russian offensive and buy time for the German army to arrive in Iraq.

In order to gain enough time, the German side can be said to have exerted tremendous pressure on the countries of the Middle East.
