When the 69 tank came to the valley, the fuel in the additional fuel tank in the back had been used up, and there was still more than half of the fuel in the main fuel tank, which was enough to maintain two hours of fighting.

And the Type 63 armored car, which has added all the fuel it carries to the tank, can also maintain a battle for several hours.

On both sides of the valley, they had already set up their positions, and all their firepower was aimed at the road in the middle of the valley.

The division commander Kamal looked at the sky outside, and after a rapid march for more than half the night, he finally arrived at the designated place, and now, waiting for the Iranians to come.

In this battle, the Iranians must be completely defeated!

Kamal knows the strategic intentions of His Excellency Qusay, this battle will be the same as that of Abadan, an easy war of annihilation, the entire Southern Military District, which one does not admire the military command genius of His Excellency Qusay? It is simply the god of war given to them by Allah!

The Iraqi army has changed the face-to-face formal style of fighting in the past, and every time it fights, there will be a new way.

Using advanced infrared night vision equipment, the westernmost ambush chariot was already closely watching the Iranians who came to see them to death.

Yes, they came to die.

After waiting for more than an hour, when they saw the bright light of those bright headlights, everyone couldn't believe their eyes, were they marching at night?

You know, the first rule of night marching is that you must never turn on your headlights! This is an absolute suicidal act on the battlefield, and in an instant, Kalmar almost wanted to rush up and hug the other party's commander and kiss him twice, good brother, why did you give me a big meal so easily!

They waited quietly, waiting for the Iranians to come and die.

However, when the opposing convoy galloped into the ambush circle, Kalmar hesitated.

The first to rush up was not the armored units of the Iranians, they didn't even have armor protection to open the way, and the first ones were those wheeled trucks.

The Iranians must have gone crazy, and this move by His Excellency Qusay can be regarded as hitting the opponent's soft underbelly.

The westernmost tank reported that the armored forces of the Iranians, behind the wheeled vehicles, were far behind.

At this time, the wheeled vehicles are about to get out of their ambush circle.

The strength of the Iranians to rush to their lives is really not low.

At this time, there are two options in front of Kalmar, either fight now and completely wipe out this convoy, however, the armored force behind is likely to retract.

Or, let go of this convoy and focus on annihilating the opponent's armored forces, however, the wheeled vehicles are running fast, and they can't catch up.

Neither method can achieve the order given to him by His Excellency Qusay: to annihilate this support army.

What to do?

Kalmar knew that now was not the time for him to hesitate, the wheeled vehicles were moving very fast, and his armored strength could not catch up with the other side, and if these vehicles reached the port of Khomeini, they would also increase their strength there.

Can't hesitate any longer.

"Immediately open fire, the 1st Armored Brigade, the 2nd Armored Brigade, immediately to the west, a decisive battle with the armored forces of the Iranians, the 1st Brigade to meet the enemy head-on, the 2nd Brigade to outflank in a roundabout, must be all destroyed. Armored 3rd Brigade, take out these Iranian trucks. "Kalmar gave the order to fight.

The 1st and 2nd Brigades had to ambush to the west and let them attack to complete the task of encircling and destroying the Iranian armored forces, while the 3rd Armored Brigade was ambushed to the east and destroy the Iranian wheeled vehicles.

Having received an order, the 10th Panzer Division, finally began the operation.

"Boom!" A grenade hit a truck at the front of the convoy of trucks, aiming very high, lifting the truck very high and blowing a large crater on the ground.

Although off-road trucks can go off-road, their ability to walk in the wilderness is not as good as that of tracked vehicles, and the road is damaged by bombing, so they are greatly limited.

German artillery is just powerful! Inside the 69 tank, the commander observed the sight of a grenade fired from a 105-mm tank gun, which was spectacular.

Then, countless shells flew over, and the road was in shambles.

Oops, there is an ambush!

The off-road trucks that departed from Ahvaz were the most elite troops sent by Hashmian under his command, and among them were many of the experienced mid-level commanders released by Khomeini.

If it weren't for the urgency of the order, they wouldn't have chosen such a bold way, but now, they reacted immediately.

Iraqis for sure! They calculated their march route and deliberately ambushed here, what a cunning!

Their first measure is to turn off the headlights immediately, and if you turn on the headlights at night like this, it is simply looking for death!

With the headlights turned off, it was dark all around, except for the fires that had ignited the trucks that had been hit.

On one truck, at least one platoon of fighters and equipment were all burned to the fire.

The rest of the trucks drove off the road, although there were potholes underneath, but the off-road trucks were designed to drive in these conditions.

It's dark everywhere now, take advantage of the night and try to get out of here!

To this day, they still have illusions that they can complete their mission and get to the port of Khomeini as soon as possible.

Do you think that if you turn off the headlights, you won't be found? From the inside of the infrared imaging night vision device, the tank crew clearly sees the car in front of him, aims and shoots accurately.

It's just that it's a waste of tank ammunition! If the BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle is there, the low-pressure 76 mm smoothbore gun is exactly for this job, with 105 mm caliber ammunition, it is somewhat wasteful, even if it is a grenade.

The tank was aiming, shooting, and approaching the battlefield.

At this time, there are blown trucks everywhere, and for the tank, the truck is an object that has no resistance at all, and can only be slaughtered by him.

Iranian officers keenly discovered that it was absolutely impossible to flee in a truck, and as the trucks were hit one by one, they could only wait for death if they stayed in the trucks.

They had to give up the preparation to reinforce the port of Khomeini, and here first, thinking about how to get out of trouble!

Staying in the truck can only wait for death, not to mention being hit, in this dark night, because of the panic and the car trapped, overturned, there are quite a few.

The soldiers had no choice but to get out of the car, and the commander ordered to find cover on the spot to resist and wait for the rear tank units to come up.

They ran too crazy just now, and the tank troops in the rear were several miles behind them, otherwise, with their own tanks, where would they be bullied so badly.

However, they didn't know that their own tank troops would not end much better.

Hearing the sound of artillery in front and the armored troops in the rear, they knew that the situation was not good, but there was no intelligence at all that there was a regular Iraqi army in the vicinity, so they thought that it was a small Iraqi force interspersed.

The armored troops immediately left the road and dispersed the attacking front, preparing to relieve the hapless force in front.

Just now, in the rush for the road, in the tank unit, it was not the chiefs who rushed to the front, but the old M60 tanks.

Although the Chieftain has more horsepower, it also weighs more, so it is not as light as the M60.

The battle ahead had already reminded them that the tank crews had turned off their lights, and the gunners had turned on their infrared headlights and were using the vehicle's infrared devices to observe ahead.

The chieftain in the rear was a little helpless, its infrared equipment should be the best, and the artillery fire was the most intense, but it was squeezed behind by a bunch of M60s and couldn't rush up.

At this time, the tank units in the rear, no matter who they were, thought that the front was only a small Iraqi force, and because it was more than ten miles away, they only saw the light of fire, but did not see the scale of the battle clearly.

Alad was already the commander of the first armored brigade, and his tank corps rushed to the front, and soon, inside the infrared imaging night vision device, there were shining points of light.

It is equipped with infrared imaging night vision devices, and there is no need for that infrared headlight, and at this moment, all Iranian tanks still use infrared headlights, which is like turning on a flashlight in the dark night, hiding in the dark and can see everything around you clearly.

This kind of battle is very cool.

Because at this moment, Iran's armored forces did not detect the opposing tanks at all.

At a distance of 1,300 meters, Elad brought his tank forces to a halt.

Although the new fire control system has a high dynamic and dynamic first hit rate, Alad still chooses to stop shooting for the sake of insurance.

The 2nd Armored Brigade, on the other hand, chose to take a detour from the side, they needed to block the way home for the Iranians, and not a single one could run away, otherwise it would not be considered a complete victory!

Like fireflies in the dark night, or moths fighting fires, the Iranian tanks have been put on the sights one by one, and the shooting elements have been entered into the ballistic computer.

"Volley!" Alad shouted over the radio.

Suddenly, as if it was a demon from hell, in the darkness opposite, countless fires suddenly flew out, and one after another shells appeared from the darkness, ruthlessly ravaging Iran's armored forces.

At this moment, there was no shadow of each other in their poor night vision devices.

The accuracy of the first round was so high that the M60 tanks that rushed to the front line were shot one after another, and the power was so great that all the tanks that were hit by the bullet were penetrated without accident, and then exploded and caught fire.

Seeing that their tanks were being fired, the armored forces of the Iranians immediately launched a counterattack.

The enemy is definitely ahead! Their tanks, at full speed, rushed into the darkness.

In the night vision device, the outline of the opponent's tank finally appeared.

You're hiding here! Tanks of the Iranians, ready to return fire.

At this time, the second round of shells flew over again.

Tanks equipped with automatic loaders can have continuous fire of 6-8 rounds per minute, while manual loading takes more than ten seconds of reloading, plus aiming, firing, especially although the fire control system is more advanced, however, it takes longer to run-in.

The gunners were also trained by Elard: if you are not absolutely sure, then don't waste shells!

So, although they were a little slower in the second round, their accuracy was still very high.
