Chapter 881: West Germany Must Be Controlled

Muhammad looked at the pouring rain outside, and his heart was filled with anxiety. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Did you get in touch with them?" Muhammad turned back and asked the staff officer.

"No, there's a noise on the radio, and I can't get in touch." The staff officer said.

The Type 63 armored car is still equipped with an old-fashioned vehicle-mounted shortwave radio, and the maximum operating distance of the whip antenna, that is, 50 kilometers, plus there is always thunder outside, which causes strong interference, and it has been impossible to get in touch with His Excellency Qusay.

Muhammad could not have imagined what the commander of the military region would have reacted to if he had known that something had happened to His Excellency Qusay in his own defense zone, and that his military career would have come to an end.

In fact, the Iranians will attack from the swamp, until now, it is only their own speculation, and the military region did not agree, which is why they sent people to the swamp to investigate.

Nowadays, even the Type 63 armored vehicles with good off-road performance are afraid that it will be difficult to cope with the sudden rainstorm, and if they fail to come out before the rainstorm, the consequences will be serious.

Muhammad did not dare to think about the consequences, O Almighty Allah, please bless His Excellency Qusay to be safe!

"Keep calling until you can get in touch." Muhammad said.

If the rain stops and he cannot be contacted, Mohammed can only report to the Military Region, which will send a helicopter to the swamp to reconnoiter and find His Excellency Qusayi as soon as possible.

Because of this heavy rain, many people have not been able to sleep all night.

Ahvaz.

Abel stood in front of the map, meditating.

Organizing this counterattack, and, moreover, choosing to attack from the swamps, was his established idea, but it was disputed in the military department for a long time.

Abel knows that many people have now begun to oppose him, especially the growing rift between himself and Khomeini, who is very unhappy that he does not support certain actions of him.

He chose to attack from this position as much as possible, so that he could drive the Iraqis back in the fastest possible time.

The situation in Iran is not stable, especially Khomeini's purge in the army, the combat effectiveness of the army has not yet recovered, and the country cannot support the huge war expenditures, so Abel chose to take a risky move.

However, God seemed to be playing a joke on himself, even with full preparation, he still underestimated the difficulty of passing through the swamp, and it was almost over, but at this most critical time, it rained heavily.

Allah, Almighty, will surely favor the Iranian people who believe in Him.

"Chairman, we have to think about other methods, should we withdraw the armored division?" General Sharaf said.

"No, we can't withdraw, and even if we withdraw now, can we withdraw?" Abel asked.

"Chairman, General, I have a suggestion." A staff officer said boldly.

"What advice? Go ahead. Abel agreed.

"We are currently equipped with large CH-47 Chinook helicopters, which we can use to resupply armored divisions that have not yet come out of the swamp, plus the supplies we already have, enough for them to win a week's assault." The staff officer said.

Resupply with a helicopter? This is also a method, and the CH-47 Chinook helicopter is the largest helicopter in Iran's arsenal. It is a multi-functional, twin-engine, twin-propeller medium-sized transport helicopter developed and manufactured by Boeing in the United States. Unlike ordinary helicopters, it uses a twin-rotor tandem structure, with two propellers in front and behind the head, and no side propellers in the tail.

This helicopter has a cargo carrying capacity of up to 10 tons, and Iran is equipped with a total of 68 helicopters of this type, manufactured under license for the Italian company Agusta/Southern Helicopters, and due to the shortage of spare parts, half of them have been grounded, and even if 30 are transferred, 300 tons of supplies can be transported at a time, which is enough for use.

However, this did not solve the problem, and now the problem of the armored division was that due to heavy rains, the swamp was even more muddy, and the tanks could not pass.

"We can load the helicopter with cement, throw a lot of cement on the road that needs to be carried forward, and after the cement falls into the swamp, it will solidify in two or three hours, and then temporarily construct a road for tanks, although it may not be able to withstand the full weight of tanks, but it will be much stronger than a single swamp."

If Abel was bold enough to choose to attack in the swamp, the staff officer in front of him was even more whimsical, and he actually wanted to use cement to construct a road?

It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to build a passable highway, and can the road withstand the weight of more than 60 tons of tanks just by throwing cement in the sky and without other construction preparations?

"Sharaf, we need to do experiments to see if this method works." Abel said.

The sky is gradually clearing, and the weather in the Middle East is also changing.

Zhang Feng and Warikh's team, a team of nearly thirty people, was struggling on the muddy road, and the armored vehicles had been abandoned by them on the road.

Last night's thunder and lightning, probably Allah deliberately wanted to test the heroic Iraqi fighters, and the armored vehicle No. 01 was also unfortunately stuck in the mud, and the tracks paddled weakly in the muddy water, but it could not get out of danger.

After working hard in the rain and half disappeared, everyone was exhausted, but unexpectedly, when they were about to get out of danger, the engine finally stopped working because of too much ravage: continuous high-speed rotation, the engine hugged the tile. (The bearing between the crankshaft and the connecting rod is sintered, which is also a common problem of the original export Type 63 armored car, the engine is not up to par, if it is a German engine, then there is no problem).

Completely sad, Zhang Feng wanted to cry without tears, went around, even the direction was wrong, completely lost, now, even the chariot can't be driven, this training is really close to actual combat.

There was no other way, the radio was also broken, and it was impossible to report the situation to the 35th Brigade Headquarters, so Zhang Feng had to order to abandon the car and go back on foot, which was considered an armed off-road.

Zhang Feng took all the soldiers and began to embark on the feat of returning on foot from the swamp, if he could not return as soon as possible, at least the commander of the 35th Brigade, Muhammad, would be in big trouble, I don't know how the old man would be furious.

The sky is blue, and after the rain, the sun doesn't seem so vicious. The already wet military boots stepped on the slippery ground and walked silently. (To be continued.) )
