Chapter 492: Capture Baghdad

Zhao Bin frowned and said, "Anyway, your words are indeed a bit disrespectful!" Aren't you, an old boy, afraid that this word will reach His Majesty's ears, and His Majesty will pull your kid out and cut off his head in a fit of rage? ”

"It's just you and me here, is it possible that you still tell me?" Song Zhen said with a wink.

"It's not my style to make small reports behind my back, and I think so! What you just said makes a lot of sense! His Majesty's mind is really beyond the reach of ordinary people! Zhao Bin said with emotion.

"Ah~haha!" Song Zhen couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Zhao Bin said with a smile, "I still remember when His Majesty explained blitzkrieg to me, he once mentioned something to me, and His Majesty said this at that time, relying on the rapid assault of tank clusters, as well as the aerial firepower of aircraft and the high-speed cooperation of in-depth airborne and parachute landing, a powerful modern "ramming hammer" was formed, and a solid defense line with heavy guards was quickly broken. ”

"This analogy of His Majesty is very appropriate, but what is going on with this deep machine river and parachuting?" Song Zhen asked suspiciously.

"You don't understand this, do you? I tell you that it is to use large transport planes to airdrop troops directly to the enemy's rear, occupy the enemy's headquarters, occupy important bridges, road sections, paralyze the enemy's communications, and so on to cooperate with the attack of the frontal troops. Zhao Bin patiently explained.

"Divine soldiers descend from heaven! In this way, the enemy's disposition will be disrupted. Song Zhen said excitedly.

"Yes, that's the truth." Zhao Bin nodded and said.

"Hey~! That's not right! How do we airdrop our forces directly into the enemy's rear? How many people can be transported by plane? Song Zhen said puzzled.

"Of course, we can't do it with today's airplanes, but with the development of technology, it won't be long before we can invent more advanced large transport aircraft. According to the emperor's imagination, as long as there are such large transport planes in the future, let alone airdrop paratroopers, even airdrop tanks will not be a problem. Zhao Bin said excitedly.

"Airdrop tanks? How big is that? Besides, the tank is so heavy, if you throw it from the air, it won't fall apart! Song Zhen said with a frown.

"Why are you so stupid! There's a parachute! How could it be broken? As you know, we have now developed a parachute, which allows people to land safely with a parachute. In the future, we will be able to invent larger parachutes that can land safely with tanks, and He also said that the materials for parachutes are too expensive now, and that new materials that are cheaper and stronger will have to be invented in the future. Of course, these are only the assumptions of the Majesty, and they are still under development. Zhao Bin patiently explained.

"Sounds like science fiction!" Song Zhen shook his head and said.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, it's all for later. Our top priority now is to take Baghdad as much as possible, if we can't successfully capture Baghdad, it will be in vain! Zhao Bin waved his hand and said with a heavy face. Although the shape is good now, as long as Baghdad is not captured for a day, Zhao Bin cannot be completely relieved, after all, on this rapidly changing battlefield. Anything can happen, but now everything that needs to be done has been done, and we can only do our best and resign ourselves to God's destiny.

Starting from the attack on the morning of the 19th, the Northern Armored Group of the Western Expeditionary Army tore through the defense line of the British and American forces in only a few hours, and on the afternoon of the 19th, the armored group captured Shahraban, on the morning of the 20th, broke through Bagubai, and in the afternoon thousands of tanks and armored vehicles of the armored group drove under the city of Baghdad.

At this time, Baghdad was in chaos, and a large number of British and American soldiers who had been defeated from the front line poured into Baghdad like locusts. These soldiers, who had already broken through their fears, spread their fears to every corner of Baghdad, and the madness was rapidly contagious among the British and American soldiers. At this time, above the sky, the hovering Chinese planes carried out a large-scale bombing of Baghdad. Beginning on the morning of the 20th, the Western Expeditionary Force dispatched 500 sorties of warplanes to bomb Baghdad. The city was littered with corpses that had not had time to be collected, and entire streets had been blown into ruins.

The Panzer Cluster then launched a fierce assault on Baghdad, but the unheard of rout did not help the defenders of Baghdad. Instead, it caused massive chaos. Tanks that shimmered metallicly in the sunlight crushed the corpses of the British and American routs and rushed directly into the city of Baghdad.

On the evening of the 20th, the armored group successfully captured the city of Baghdad. Zhao Bin danced excitedly after receiving the report.

"Although our army has successfully captured Baghdad, at this time our infantry is far behind, and the 50th Army, which is currently making the fastest progress, is still about sixty kilometers away from Baghdad! We have mobilized all the trucks to transport the infantry, but due to the shortage of fuel, most of the fuel is used by the armored forces. The trucks that can be driven now are simply not able to transport such a large number of infantry. Song Zhen said with a frown.

"If you don't have a truck, run on your legs! I think that in the Korean battlefield, we didn't have a single truck, and once in order to raid the Japanese army, His Majesty the Emperor took us to march 120 kilometers in a day, and then went directly into the battle and defeated the Japanese army in one fell swoop. In addition, when the port of Incheon was raided, all the troops also relied on their legs, ran more than 100 kilometers in one day, and took Incheon Port in one fell swoop. At the beginning, our Tiger Army was able to run more than 100 kilometers in one day, and today our Western Expeditionary Army can also run 60 kilometers in one night, and informed the 50th Army to march rapidly overnight and must arrive in Baghdad before dawn tomorrow! If the task is not completed, military law will be engaged! Zhao Bin said with a stern face.

"Yes! I personally went to deliver the order! Song Zhen answered, turned his head and walked towards the confidential room.

"Wait! Immediately report to His Majesty the Emperor, and say that our army has successfully captured Baghdad! Zhao Bin couldn't help but remind.

"Got it!" Song Zhen answered and strode into the confidential room.

Under Zhao Bin's strict order, tens of thousands of soldiers of the 50th Army of the Western Expeditionary Army marched in a hurry overnight, galloped for 60 miles, and finally arrived in Baghdad on the morning of the 21st, and on the 22nd, the Western Expeditionary Army captured Fallujah and Mahmoudiyeh. So far, more than 1.1 million troops of the British and American coalition forces have been successfully surrounded by the Western Expeditionary Force in south-central Iraq. (To be continued......)
