Chapter 982: Take Yazd!
Otto pounced on the branches and dirt on his body, which were hit by the air currents of the cloudburst bomb's explosion, and then, when he opened his eyes, he was already miserable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info{{}}
At the last moment, Otto took a sharp breath, and then, with his head down, lay on the ground, because he was far away, the temperature had not yet cooked him, but the lack of oxygen was his great enemy.
People can't live without oxygen, without oxygen, then they can only suffocate to death, after Otto took a sharp breath, he relaxed his whole body, so that the body did not move, so that the oxygen consumption can be minimized, and, more importantly, he has been trained in diving, he can hold his breath for three minutes, this time, he held it for another half a minute, before he finally dared to breathe, the cloud burst bomb not only consumed oxygen, but also generated a large amount of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, he relied on improvisation, to avoid this crisis, but, his subordinates, All of them were killed in this air raid.
Odo looked at the scene as if it was in hell, he thought that Iraq might attack them, and when the time came, they could run away without a trace under the cover of the mountains and forests, but he never thought that Iraq would use this kind of weapon.
Ordinary bombs, even laser-guided bombs, do not have such great power, similar to the carpet bombing of American B-52 bombers, where they pass, there is not a single piece of tiles. {{}}
This army has been destroyed, and all the weapons and ammunition they have stored have also evaporated, and the two big explosions that occurred just now are the result of the explosion of weapons, and the plan of the sรจ column has all gone bankrupt.
Otto's face turned pale, and in his mind, he was already aware of his fiasco.
Will the Iraqis give them a chance? If it weren't for the fact that they had six divisions of arms that could suppress the surrounding provinces, I am afraid that a new round of peaceful return would have begun, and now, since Iraq has used such powerful weapons, then it will definitely not let go of these southern provinces, and Iraq will definitely launch a ground offensive at the same time, but unfortunately, now is the time to carry out guerrilla warfare, and these fighters have died in advance.
Although Odo was desperate in his heart, he still had a belief that he would return to Yazd, break the six remaining infantry divisions that had been transferred to Jingrui, and carry out guerrilla warfare to delay the Iraqi offensive, as long as he could consume the living forces of Iraq, he would achieve his goal!
He didn't know that Yazd was now in turmoil, and he was about to usher in a drastic change. {{}}
The pilot of the Tu-22 bomber did not know the effect of his bombing, but when the subsequent F-20 fighter plane flew over the target again, he felt the shock, here, it was like a catastrophe, everything on the ground, all non-existent.
Poor guys down there, that's what annoyed President Qusay!
The sound of the propeller of the CH-47 helicopter pierced the sky in the mountains, and flying in the mountains was a time to test the quality of the pilots, but they did not have to fly too low, and after being equipped with terrain matching radar, the safety of the flight was greatly increased.
In the cabin, Marwan looked at his subordinates, this combat mission, so to speak, was issued temporarily, they only went through a day or two of preparation time, but for this mission, they were also full of confidence.
There was only one platoon of soldiers stationed at the airfield, and the nearest barracks was thirty kilometers away, you know, it was a mountainous area, thirty kilometers was a straight line distance, and the mountain road was winding, sixty kilometers away, enough for the defenders to walk for an hour. {{}}
Their biggest task is probably not to eliminate the defenders there, but to clear the runway of the airport that has long been unused to prevent debris from harming the landing of transport planes.
The helicopter pilot skillfully piloted, flew over one hill after another, and finally, it suddenly became clear that a familiar runway appeared in front of him, which was his goal!
"Attention, about to enter the battlefield, prepare for battle." Marwan said, loading the bullet.
At the airport, several sentries were lazily looking at the sky, and suddenly, from their sight, two strange planes appeared.
Since they were newly recruited, they didn't have much experience, and they still knew ordinary helicopters, but they hadn't seen helicopters with propellers in the front and rear.
What is that? These people are still curious.
"Tutu, tutu. {{}}" saw the helicopter and spat out a tongue of fire.
The side doors of the CH-47 helicopters were opened, and from the inside, a machine gun was pushed, which was their special weapon.
Due to the insufficient range of the helicopter gunship, this time they could only use this form, first carrying out a fire cover.
As the machine gun spat out tongues of fire, the sentries below fell to the ground one after another.
Seeing that the surroundings were all empty and there was no figure, a helicopter landed on the runway, and a large number of members of the Sidewinder special forces ran out of it.
When they walked up to the soldiers who had just been killed, they opened their guns, and there were no bullets in them.
Here, it's simply undefended. Commander Abed, the first team, immediately made a gesture, and they quickly rushed in the direction of the tower.
In the face of the Iraqi army, the people in the tower, and the defenders in the barracks behind did not resist much, and all surrendered. {{}}
The defenders here really had no defense, especially that, except for the highest commander here, that is, the platoon commander, who had a few bullets in his gun, the rest of the soldiers were not allocated bullets.
Because the level of training of the soldiers is very low, in order to prevent accidental misfire, especially to prevent these soldiers, quietly run to the mountains to hunt game and waste bullets, so the platoon commander is very self-righteous and did not issue bullets to these soldiers, it would be good to have a gun, and now it is not during the war.
Therefore, the Iraqi special forces, with little suspense, took this place.
Seeing that the runway was already deserted, Marwan gave an order to let these prisoners pick up brooms and quickly clean the airport runway.
Although the Il-76 has the ability to land on a field runway, and even the ability to land on flat land, it is still necessary to be fully prepared to prevent danger, and there can be at least more than 100 soldiers of the Liberation Army in one plane.
Marwan was in the tower and had radio equipment turned on, and this time they were accompanied by two airport commanders.
As soon as the runway was cleared, a roar could be heard in the distance.
In the midst of non-stop radio contact, a busy take-off and landing began.
The runway has a total length of 3,000 meters, and the Il-76 has excellent short take-off and landing capabilities, which can land at a distance of 1,000 meters, and then take off with no payload at a distance of less than a kilometer.
The airport here is small, there is not enough tarmac, it is impossible to land all 30 Il-76s and then take off, so they use an assembly-line approach.
In the field of vision, the figure of a transport plane, more and more conspicuous, from the appearance, as if a little stubby, I saw that it was aimed at the runway, with the correct gliding trajectory, fell, under the belly, a total of 20 tires of the landing gear, has been put down, two commanders on the tower command, looking at the gliding trajectory of the aircraft, keep giving orders.
"Squeak!" The main landing gear smoothly touched the ground, the oil and gas shock absorbers shook for a while, the fuselage stabilized, began to slide on the runway, and the landing gear in front also touched the ground.
The four engines under the wings are also turned on the clamshell anti-thrust device, which can reverse the air flow of the engine back to the front to achieve the purpose of deceleration, and can be used on the transport aircraft, which can greatly reduce the runway length required for landing.
Before reaching the middle of the runway, the IL-76 stopped, the tail hatch at the back opened, and the heavily armed soldiers ran down, and followed, several armored vehicles inside, which were also driven out, which were Type 63 infantry fighting vehicles eliminated by the Iraqi army.
In a minute, all the personnel and equipment were down, and then the plane began to continue sliding, accelerating, and flying into the sky.
The second Il-76 landed with it.
Members of the Sidewinder special forces were closely guarding the edge of the airport, and several CH-47 helicopters also began to monitor the surrounding ground non-stop, and the Il-76 was very dangerous when taking off and landing, and if there were people on the ground with portable anti-aircraft missiles at this time, it would be a huge threat to the transport aircraft.
They need to protect the take-off and landing of transport planes, and then, the task of attacking Yazd is entrusted to them.
In the third transport plane, Rajavi calmed down his excitement and ran off the plane like an ordinary soldier.
After all the transport planes had taken off and landed, in the open space next to the airport, Rajavi's troops had assembled, and this time, they brought a total of ten Type 63 armored vehicles, three Type 69 tanks, and forty-four off-road military trucks. With the Type 69 tank as the lead, the Type 63 armored vehicle in the center, and the off-road military truck behind, a convoy was formed and headed towards Yazd.
Take Yazd! This is their goal, with Yazd, the surrounding Kerman, Fars, Isfahan and other places will be under their control! They are not as vulnerable as the outside world claims, and they are also a formidable force! It can stop the existence of any separatist forces. (To be continued.)
