Everything is already in place, even the east wind is blowing now, and of course Kusai will not pass up this opportunity. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧

"If the Iraqi side is willing to help us put down this rebellion, we very much welcome Iraqi troops to enter Syria and participate in our encirclement of Rifat." Manav said.

He has no other choice, if he wants to quell the rebellion, he must rely on the power of Iraq, but it is easy to ask God to send God, is the Iraqi army so easy to go?

"President Qusay, how many troops do you plan to send?" Manav then asked.

"Our 60th Panzer Division in the Golan Heights will be dispatched quickly, and before dawn it will reach the outskirts of Damascus to complete the encirclement of the rebels, and our 1st Panzer Division will enter from the Syrian desert area, and by tomorrow evening, it will also reach the Damascus area. And, in half an hour, our first support units will land at your Al-Mezzeh Air Base, and our paratroopers and marines will be able to reinforce you as quickly as possible. ≦≧According to my analysis, Rifat's troops are likely to attack your air base overnight, and your air base is now facing the greatest threat. ”

In addition to the two armored units, according to the changes in the situation on the ground, Qusay temporarily added a plan of action, sending two rapid reaction forces, the Airborne Forces and the Naval Commando, to support.

At present, Iraq has more than 20 Il-76 transport planes, which is the largest group of Il-76 transport planes outside the Soviet Union, which is sufficient to transport all the personnel and equipment of the 67th Airborne Regiment.

What are the advantages of the Airborne Forces? It's about being where they are needed! So. Airborne Forces. That is, the rapid reaction forces, the only drawback, is that the airborne forces are not able to carry heavy equipment.

Right now. Qusay has already learned that the rebel 4th Panzer Division, which is inside Damascus, has already sent part of its forces. Go to the air base and want to kill Manav, and Manaf's men are probably not armed to resist the armored forces, especially if he has helicopter gunships, he can't be put into use before dawn, and wait until dawn. ≦≧ it is likely that the two sides are already close to each other.

Therefore, Iraq needs to use its own forces to help Manaf hold the air base. to be able to turn to a counteroffensive.

Except for the Airborne Forces. Another force in Qusay's hands is the Marine Corps.

Iraq's navy is very weak. However, in the hands of Qusay, slowly becoming strong enough, the Navy began to have warships with a displacement of several thousand tons, and it will also have naval aviation, and also the Marine Corps.

Led by Hades of the Sidewinder Special Forces, the newly formed Marine Corps has already played an important role in several naval conflicts.

However, it was not a formal battle, at best, it was just Haijing's work, so Hades was very dissatisfied and always proposed to Qusay that he could make the Marines take on more difficult tasks, and they would be able to complete any task given by the president. ≦≧

Therefore, this time Qusay also mobilized the Marine Corps, in addition to providing them with the opportunity to fight, there is another purpose, this Marine Corps is equipped with Iraqi Desert Leopard 8*8 infantry fighting vehicles.

After half a year of testing, this weapon independently developed by Iraq was finally finalized and equipped with troops, and first of all, it was equipped in small batches, including the Marine Corps.

The Marine Corps refers to the special units in the navy that are responsible for the task of crossing the sea and landing operations, with armored transport ships or ships as the main means of transport, and are responsible for landing operations from the sea or as the vanguard of large-scale all-out offensive operations for large rear forces.

Qusay is well aware of the importance of the navy, and he is also very concerned about the marines, because the main ships of the navy are still in the supporting facilities, and the landing ships that the marines need are not yet possible to have, and they can only use rubber boats to conduct landing exercises, but they are still trying to improve their combat skills. Therefore, when wheeled infantry fighting vehicles with the ability to navigate on the water entered service, they were preferentially assigned to the Marine Corps, equipped with a brigade of a hundred people. ≦≧

And since the airborne regiment was only equipped with a limited number of Soviet-made paratrooper fighting vehicles, and in the face of the armored forces of the 4th Panzer Division, which might arrive on a large scale, the firepower was obviously insufficient, so Qusay decided to let the marines follow, and could use the newly equipped desert leopards to confront the rebel T-55.

Thin-skinned infantry fighting vehicles, how to fight the T-55 tank? This will be an attempt, because one of the great advantages of the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle is that it has high mobility, and with its powerful maneuverability, it can completely suppress the T-55 tank equipped with a primitive and backward fire control system, so that it cannot find a chance to fire, and the desert leopard can use its own anti-tank missiles to counterattack the T-55.

As long as the tactics are used properly, they are fully capable of taking out the opponent.

"Thank you very much, now, the radar stations and air defense forces units in eastern Damascus are still following my orders, and I will let them open the airspace so that your country's fighters can fly to our air base in the shortest possible time." Manav said.

Damascus is only three hundred kilometers away from the border with Iraq, the nearest one in the east, where a long-range radar and an anti-aircraft missile battery were deployed in Syria, and now, that missile battery is still under Manaf's orders. ≦≧

After the call with Major General Manaf, Qusay's heart was relaxed, after this incident, Major General Manaf will definitely become one of the most important people in the Syrian leadership because of his great contributions, for example, Minister of Defense, is more suitable for his position, Manaf is very close to Iraq, plus Bashar was also saved by himself, those who insisted that Syria was a big country and did not want to lose to Iraq The old antiques who had a headache fell under the hands of Rifaat, this time, it really gave himself a great opportunity!

With the resolution of the Syrian issue, Iraq's position in the Middle East will be completely established, and through the combination of economic and military aspects, it will firmly unite the countries of the Middle East around itself and establish a solid Arab alliance.

Large aircraft is a strategic transport force, which will play a decisive role in the war, which is why Qusay simply invested money in the research and development of the Yun-10 project, and it is also the reason why Qusay can spend a lot of money to make the Soviet Union agree to two batches of contracts for the sale of Il-76 aircraft to itself, and moreover, it was delivered in a relatively timely manner, and now, Iraq's own Il-76 has more than 20 aircraft.

Baghdad Air Base, at this time the lights are bright, on the runway, the Il-76 transport aircraft are ready to go.

In the spacious cargo compartment of the transport aircraft, there is a strangely shaped armored car, the whole vehicle is similar to the body of the BMP infantry fighting vehicle, welded with thin steel plates, almost the same turret, six pairs of small one load wheels, the use of advanced liquid and gas suspension, the height of the bottom of the car from the ground can be adjusted, the range is 100 to 450 mm, which is also to withstand the instantaneous impact force when falling to the ground when parachuting. This is the БmД paratrooper combat vehicle that Iraq purchased from the USSR.

At the back of the paratrooper chariot is space for six people, with only one opening at the top. This kind of pocket-sized infantry fighting vehicle makes the paratroopers very dissatisfied, and on the battlefield, many times after capturing the enemy's infantry fighting vehicle, they will throw away their own small tank, because it is too crowded! It's a little better than taking the bus during rush hour.

In this mission, their transport aircraft can land on the other side's airfield, so the paratrooper fighting vehicle is not equipped with complex parachutes and other devices, and three such combat vehicles can be crammed into an Il-76 transport aircraft.

Other transport planes are loaded with two slightly larger wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, which look even taller and more powerful, and this is the first appearance of this latest combat vehicle on the battlefield.

Except for the chariots in the middle, the sides were full of warriors in full gear.

"This is the first time that our Marines have participated in such a large-scale conflict since its establishment, and we must show our prestige! We want to make our reputation resound throughout the Middle East, and let our limelight surpass the Sidewinder special forces, we are the most sharp special forces! ”

In the cabin of an Il-76, Hades said viciously.

Regarding Hades's Xingge, everyone knows very well that during training, everyone will scold this devil in their hearts, but their progress is very great, and they are also looking forward to this battle, it is said that Captain Hades came out of the Rattlesnake special forces, and now he is saying that he will surpass the most famous special forces, and each of them has a full suffocation in their hearts.

On this night, the land of the Middle East once again seemed uncalm, and in Damascus, more than eighty T-55 tanks began to make another sortie, turning on infrared headlights, in the direction of the Al-Mezzeh airbase, and began to march.

After completing the preparations for another departure, the armored forces of one of the armored brigades of the 4th Panzer Division, carried out Rifaat's order, and at this time, it was already more than three o'clock in the morning.

Richat did not know that Manaf had "colluded" with the forces of Iraq, and he calculated that as long as his armored forces could reach the air base before dawn, with tanks and armored vehicles, he could completely kill those guys in the air force and eliminate this "rebel" force.
