Chapter 587: The Convoy Is Attacked

While there is a lot of international discussion about the visiting fleet of the Future Military Resources Company, Fan Yize's convoy to Iran is moving at an even speed towards the border checkpoint between Iran and Iraq.

The distance from Baghdad to the Iranian border, which is not far, is well connected by well-equipped roads between the two countries.

After the Iran-Iraq war, along with the changes in the international situation, the United States' intervention in the Middle East has prompted the relations between Iran and Iraq to ease somewhat, or at least it is no longer so tense.

But it does not make the two countries friendly countries, but because both countries are under United Nations sanctions at the same time, the trade between the two countries has returned to normal, so the relationship between the two countries is quite calm.

Fan's convoy passed through the Iraqi town of Shahraban and continued along the highway in a northeasterly direction.

Immediately arriving at the Diyala Mountains at the southern tip of Iraq's Diyala province, the road winds along the mountainous area.

During the war, Iraqis fleeing from the south could be seen from time to time along the way, some on foot, others in vehicles.

Along the way, Fan Yize could not see a sizable Iraqi army.

On the contrary, there were several encounters with Iraqi guerrillas.

At this time, the Iraqi guerrillas were not formed by the Iraqi army, but were already active in Iraq during the reign of Saddam.

These guerrillas are made up of people who accept the customs and customs of the outside world, they do not wear headscarves, beards, or religious denominations, they wear tank tops and shorts, they have short hair, they have shaved beards, they ride in vehicles with weapons in hand, and they patrol the road to maintain security.

Several encounters with such guerrilla convoys, Fan Yize's convoy was not embarrassed.

At the time of the coalition invasion of Iraq, this guerrilla force was ignored, and the Iraqi army had only the Americans as its enemy, and the Americans' opponents were also placed on the Iraqi army.

The United States has issued an order prohibiting the exchange of fire with respect to any other armed forces in Iraq.

But this guerrilla force, in the original time and space, brought huge casualties to the US military.

Although this guerrilla force did not like Saddam, it did not like the invaders even more, and they were also very disgusted and hated many of the Americans' actions in Iraq.

As the vehicle passed through the Diyala Mountains, passing by an artificial dam in the mountains, Fan Yize also saw that the guerrillas had been placed in a makeshift camp next to the dam, and many Iraqis passing through here were receiving help from the guerrillas.

The long journey was not easy, and Fan Yize's convoy had only walked out for one or two hundred kilometers, and there was already a thick layer of sand and dust on the body.

The Diyala Mountains are one of the few green landscapes in Iraq, and the man-made dam is surrounded by plenty of palm orchards and well-tended farms.

The convoy did not stop and continued to move forward, and the green scenery soon faded. Go, and it's yellow again. The Gobi Desert is steep and rocky, and the winding road bypasses the peaks, which is rugged and difficult to walk.

In the valley below the road, or on the yellow-green plains in the distance, you can see the houses of the villages, and occasionally the herdsmen with goats can be seen grazing near the road.

Iraq's famous black goat, a top-quality goat that needs to be grazed, is also a very popular export commodity in Iraq internationally, an expensive ingredient.

Grazing is also an essential source of income for Iraqi herders, but due to the deterioration of the environment, there is no standardized grazing, which makes it very difficult to survive.

This situation is a common picture in the Middle East.

As the convoy approached the end of the Diyala Mountains, a steep and rugged mountain road, a herder in the distance hurriedly left with his flock.

When I looked at the convoy, I was even more panicked.

The command car that Fan Yize was riding in had a 360-degree perspective in the car, and cameras all over the body clearly captured the changes on the face of this Iraqi herdsman.

This made Fan Yize frown instinctively, looking at the route in front and the surrounding mountain situation displayed on the map, Fan Yize pressed the communicator and ordered: "Be careful, there may be a situation ahead." ”

The speed of the convoy slowed down even further, maintaining a speed of less than thirty kilometers per hour.

The next few turns down, but they were quite calm, seeing that they were about to drive through the last intersection of the mountains, the Beast off-road vehicle in the front, suddenly an emergency brake, the team joint control system, and all the cars stopped for the first time.

In the next second, in front of the convoy, at the intersection to be passed, there was a violent explosion, the steep mountain wall on the right side of the road exploded, and a large amount of sand and gravel rolled down, burying the mountain road.

On the right side of the mountain road is a steep cliff, and if it is not for the first vehicle to brake urgently and enter the area of the explosion, even if the explosives do not blow up the off-road vehicle, the vehicle will be pushed into the abyss on the right side because of the explosion and the falling sand and gravel.

The Beast armed off-road vehicle, although it looks similar to a normal family off-road vehicle, is completely different inside.

Vehicle-mounted microwave detectors and mine detection devices can detect roadside bombs or mines in time. sense of explosives.

It was just because a bomb was detected that the emergency braking was taken.

It was a 155-mm howitzer shell hidden inside the mountain wall. Sense of the microwave detector, lock the discovery, timely transmission back, to avoid the appearance of casualties.

At the moment of the explosion, every forbidden in the convoy. Guard, too, all opened the insurance of strategic rifles.

Inside every off-road vehicle, there are four prohibitions. Guard, one of the forbidden. Through the weapon control platform in the vehicle, Wei was able to control a machine gun inside the off-road vehicle and conduct fire.

The sneak attack failed, and a large number of armed men, who had already been ambushed on the right side of the mountain road, had to show up and attack the convoy.

Dense bullets landed in the middle of the convoy with a crisp crashing sound.

A large number of armed men appeared on the top of the hill on the left side of the convoy, and on the right side of the road, across the abyss, in another stretch of peaks, armed men also attacked the convoy.

It was a premeditated attack, all dressed in traditional Arabic attire, with turbans, armed with AK-47 rifles and machine guns, enough to wage a town-sized assault and defense.

"Forbidden. The guards listened to the order, the machine gun fire was suppressed, and the personnel got out of the car to annihilate the enemy. ”

On the command vehicle, Fan Yize gave the order to fight.

On the roof of the eight off-road vehicles in front and behind the command vehicle, the armor on the top was pulled, and a reinforcing machine gun appeared on the roof of the vehicle, and the Praetorian guards in the car remotely controlled the machine guns and began to suppress the enemy on the top of the hill on both sides.
