"At the moment we estimate that the defenders of the port of Khomeini, about three thousand to four thousand people, have no heavy tank vehicles, and are almost all infantry, but, in the course of a few months, they have arranged the entire port of Khomeini into a well-defended fortress, all kinds of firing points, all kinds of fortifications have been fully equipped, and if we venture forward, we will definitely suffer greater losses." Muhammad said.

"So, did our siege tactics work?" Zhang Feng asked.

"On land, we can make sure that their supplies will not be transported, but at sea," Mohammed said: "Although our warplanes patrol the waters around the port of Khomeini all day, during the day, the Iranian warships do not dare to make any moves, and several warships that were sunk also blocked the shipping lanes below the port of Khomeini, but at night, there are still small boats delivering supplies to the port of Khomeini, and we cannot defend any part of the sea, so our siege tactics, It didn't work. ”

"Then why didn't you report it earlier!" Zhang Feng's face changed slightly.

"We want to report it too, but you are too busy, your Excellency Qusay, you are doing a big thing, and we don't want to cause you trouble." Muhammad said.

In fact, they had already reported it, but Izzat only told them to keep a close watch, and Muhammad knew that sometimes, it was not possible to speak too directly.

Zhang Feng nodded, he has indeed been too busy recently, the wars in two other countries have involved too much of his energy, and he himself has ignored Khomeini Port, thinking that as long as it is blocked, when the other party is hungry and can't stand it, he will easily take Khomeini Port.

Now it seems that they are somewhat idealized, the port of Khomeini is so important, how can the Iranians sit idly by, when Hitler besieged Leningrad, the siege was so thorough, and the Soviets managed to provide supplies, not to mention the Iranians.

The hole in the sea is too big! We had to find a way to solve it.

"Report!" At this moment, a rough voice came from outside.

"Come in." Muhammad shouted, and by listening to the voice, he knew that Ali had finally come.

Although Ali was his subordinate and very capable, however, this man's desire for war was too strong, so at times, Muhammad deliberately sharpened his surname.

However, Muhammad, relying on his own well-equipped situation, often sent troops into the port of Khomeini, and as a result, he always suffered.

Who knows, the Ali I saw this time was a little embarrassed, and he still had an abrasive cloth wrapped around his ears.

"Report, Ali, the commander of the Reading Armored Regiment, has come to report, please ask Your Excellency Qusay, the two commanders to instruct." Ali stood very straight, but his big belly stood up to the front, a little nondescript.

"Ali, what's wrong with your ears?" Muhammad asked.

"Report, today there was a hole in our defenses, and an Iranian sniper was infiltrated and taken a cold shot." Ali replied.

"Ali." Zhang Feng said with some seriousness: "We are now in a war, war, a life-and-death battle, there can be no negligence, on the battlefield, we must always keep a clear mind." ”

"Yes!" Ali replied in a loud voice, and when His Excellency Qusay said this, he was loving himself.

"Ali, tell us, what have you gained from going to Khomeini Port these times?"

Ali said with a sad face: "Your Excellency Qusay, I'm not resisting orders, but the boys under my command, I really can't hold it back!" ”

"Come on," said Muhammad, "don't spit bitterness on your commanders, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and if you do that, you can be shot on the battlefield." ”

"Yes." Ali put on a serious face again: "I sent a small group, two tanks in front and two armored vehicles in the back, guarded by two squads of infantry, to the interior of the port of Khomeini, and the start was very smooth, they had already entered a block and there was no movement. ”

"Just when we thought it was the Iranians who had run away, they showed up in various positions, carrying bazookas, and hitting our weak armor, but fortunately my boys reacted quickly and killed them all, otherwise, I don't know how many people would have died."

"Are they all killed?"

"No, there are a few people on motorcycles, they run very fast, and they pick up small alleys, and we can't keep up."

Concentrate all the advantages, strike with thunder, miss a hit, and run away immediately, this is a typical guerrilla tactic, and it is also the one that causes the attacker the most headache.

Motorcycle! This is more of a headache for transportation, and in street fighting, if the Iranians can take advantage of this kind of thing, it can play a huge role, hit and run, and you can't catch up yet.

The Taliban in later generations often did this, one person in front rode a motorcycle, and the one in the back resisted a bazooka, and the two worked closely together to run after launching.

If you attack blindly, then, because you are not very familiar with the terrain, then, it is always your own side that suffers, even if you are well-equipped, you can't withstand this kind of attack, this is already a recognized problem of the world's surname, the United States in later generations, relying on its own force, can easily take down a country, but when it comes to maintaining the rule of this country, the endless harassment and blows make them tired to deal with.

If this problem is not solved, then in the future, if you want to attack the port of Khomeini, you will definitely pay a heavy price.

What to do?

Zhang Feng's mind was rethinking, and suddenly, an idea came to his mind.

"Hurd, I've given you a mission to complete in five days." Zhang Feng said.

"Yes, mission guaranteed!" Hurd immediately straightened up.

"From your troops, find a hundred of the best marksmen, and I will form ten sniper squads separately." Zhang Feng said.

A hundred? Hurd thought quickly in his mind, now, in his army, many officers are protecting calves, and when they find good seedlings, they hide them and refuse to report them.

"What? Difficult? Zhang Feng asked.

"Nope!" Hurd knew that now was not the time for bargaining.

"I will let my special forces instructors train them, due to the tight time, only five days of systematic training, ten days later, under the leadership of my special forces instructors, they entered the city of Khomeini, sniper operations, focusing on eliminating the opponent's living forces, however, if they are wounded but not killed, then it is best, the sniper operation lasts for half a month, after completion, each team member returns to their original unit."

Zhang Feng knows the following situation, so the last sentence is just a mouthful, trained by his own personal guard troops, and then enter the city to fight, and, after completing the return to the original unit, they have no loss, on the contrary, they will also receive systematic training and actual combat, this opportunity, I am afraid that all the middle-level officers will not let go, then, those excellent soldiers will stand out, after completion, whether to let them go back or not is another matter.

Sniper warfare is a method of special operations, snipers are not like tanks, armored vehicles with obvious targets, they can sneak into the city of Khomeini Port in the dark, quietly lurk, and then, aim at those Iranian soldiers, shoot a few cold guns, and wound a few opponents, you know, the wounded will seriously drag down the army, and when their wounded proportion reaches one-third, they will completely lose the ability to resist.

And Zhang Feng's sniper combat training for the Rattlesnake special forces is more professional, so that a hundred shooters with accurate marksmanship can be trained into excellent snipers, and each person only destroys two enemies per day, then, after half a month, three thousand soldiers of the other side will be reimbursed, and in this way, the soldiers in Khomeini Port will not be able to defend at all.

Of course, the actual battle will not be a simple accumulation of numbers, and various situations will occur, but in order to minimize the casualties of siege warfare, these small-scale operations in the early stage are completely necessary.

"Your Excellency Qusay." Ali asked flatteringly: "In my army, there are also a large number of accurate marksmanship, do you want to give us some indicators too?" Two squads are enough, and it also makes our troops enjoyable. ”

Zhang Feng stared at Ali with a big belly, these days, this guy has been suffocating his brain, right?

"Ali, in your unit, there are accurate marksmen?"

"Yes, of course."

"So, what about their ability to artillery?"

"Of course it's even better! We're armoured. ”

"So, you say, do your men make the guns better, or do they make the armor better? If they are willing to make guns, well, I don't mind turning this armored regiment of yours into an infantry regiment. Zhang Feng said.

The sweat on his head came out all of a sudden, and Ali scolded himself for his stupidity in his heart, this Lord Kusai, why can't he always figure out what the other party thinks?

But His Excellency Qusay, but he easily plays with himself in the palm of his hand, which is probably the difference between himself and the other party! He can only be a field commander, but he can become the future leader of Iraq.

However, Ali admires His Excellency Qusay very much, because he knows that this His Excellency Qusai really has two hits.

Although the port of Khomeini is surrounded, because the boats can still come in, the logistical supplies of the defending troops can be supplied, the morale of the defenders is also very strong, and their desire to defend this port named after the great leader is also very strong, here, is their territory, and it must not be taken away by the Iraqis!

Reinforcements from the port of Khomeini had been delayed due to the tension of the war in the north, but they were now full of confidence, and they were very satisfied with the arrogance of the besieging forces that had dealt a heavy blow to them in the first few times.

It's just that none of them expected that their doom would come.

People can not be afraid of death, but no one will remain calm under the pressure of facing death at any time, because they are human beings.
