In the north, the Dragon Army armored units advancing towards Erbil in a fork shape also approached their pre-attack targets.The 51st Armored Battalion under the command of Du Yuming rumbled across the border of Erbil on the night of the 19th.In the process of advancing to the south of the city, almost no resistance was encountered.A large number of Kurdish residents lived there, and they gave a warm welcome to the uninvited guests.They not only provided supplies and comfort items to the Chinese army, but also voluntarily joined the guide team to lead the way for Du Yuming's tanks and armored vehicles.Because they know that the arrival of the Chinese is absolutely beneficial to them. They have had enough of being persecuted by Shia Muslims. Once the Chinese arrive, they immediately feel that their day has come.

With the help of these German Kurds, Du Yuming's army advanced more smoothly. They avoided Birchem, an important defensive town in the south of Erbil, crossed the Tigris River, and penetrated straight into the weakness of the Iraqi Second Army. Ravencha.After several small-scale contests, the Dragon Army seized a large amount of equipment and ammunition, and the loss of Ravencha caused the Iraqi Second Army to shake and quickly began to collapse.

The Northern Army Corps commanded by Tang Shengzhi set off from Kirkuk. They will pass through the central area of ​​Iraq, and that area is the most stubborn of resistance.Feng Yuxiang seemed to have realized that Tang Shengzhi's troops would encounter stubborn resistance on the way forward, so they moved the troops out two days earlier.But even so, they are facing an arduous battle near the Zagros Mountains. What they have to face is the last and most capable military force of the French army in northern Iraq!

The Zagros Mountains are the largest mountain range in Iraq and Iran. It stretches for about 300 kilometers and is more than 4000 kilometers wide, from Turkey in the northwest and Kurdistan on the Iran-Iraq border to the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz in the southeast.The mountains are high in the west and low in the east. The highest peak, Mount Ararat, is located in Turkey, while Zard Peak is the highest peak in the Zagros Mountains distributed in Iran, and the second peak is called Dina Peak.To the southeast is getting lower and lower, and there are only peaks below [-] meters in Iraq.However, the foothills of the valleys between the parallel mountains here have high altitudes and a milder climate. They are the main densely populated areas in northern Iraq.

At the foot of Damavand Mountain in the Zagros Mountains, the railway line from the Caspian Sea port of Sari to Gamsar lies quietly at the foot of the mountain like a long dragon.Although this railway line has been ravaged by war and the southern section has been completely closed to traffic, the northern section can be reopened to traffic in the shortest time after each bombing thanks to the efforts of Iraqi workers.

On the side of the railway line is a mountain road.

As night fell in the valley, the war-torn mountainous area looked bare in all directions. The once towering trees were ruthlessly burned by the war, and there was no sign of life around, leaving only bare stone mountains.When you come here, you feel as if you have entered a world without life.

On the hilltop on one side of the road, pairs of vigilant eyes appeared under a few "stones".As the vanguard, Zhu Shaoliang, Hu Sanyu and the others hid under tents disguised as rocks, just because it was close to the supply base of the French army, and the enemy had already suppressed the electromagnetic coverage to this area, so they could not use wireless communication equipment, and could only adopt old-fashioned methods. wired telephone.

The telephone line had already been laid, and Zhu Shaoliang set up a low-light luminous mirror to observe the movement on the road.Suddenly, he grabbed the walkie-talkie and issued a low-pitched and decisive warning message to the nearby soldiers: "Attention all units! The target is about to appear! Two field armored vehicles, ten military trucks, six Wolverine armored vehicles, four Bison armored vehicles, two A MAX3000 field tank! French, six hundred people!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Shaoliang sneered in his heart: "Frenchmen, the weapons are really complicated, even the chariots are so varied!"

Halfway up the mountain, hidden under a camouflage net disguised as a stone, each dragon army soldier has opened the safety of their weapons, and their guns are aimed at the winding road down the mountain.

Previously, the French army's reconnaissance plane came here. Because of the anti-radar detection cloth, the enemy plane did not find the target hidden in the mountains at all, but sent a signal of "everything is safe" to the French army in the vanguard.

Zhu Shaoliang once again issued a reminder to his subordinates: "The target is expected to arrive in 5 minutes! The attack time is 5 minutes, and evacuate immediately when the time is up!"

The soldiers of the Dragon Army pointed their guns down the mountain, and the Viper bazooka was also replaced with individual cloud-explosive warheads and armor-piercing warheads, looking at the sky vigilantly.

Lv Changqing, the super sniper of the Dragon Army, had already been dispatched from Mosul, and came to this mountainous area to undertake the task of sniping and killing French officers.He has already found a hidden sniper platform by himself, with his beloved ice fox heavy sniper rifle on his back, aiming the black muzzle at the bottom of the mountain. Once he finds an important target, he will not escape his ruthless sniper rifle. kill!Seen from the low-light scope of the sniper rifle, the winding mountain road below the mountain showed a faint green, and all the targets passing down the mountain could not escape his sharp eyes.

"Here we come! Prepare to attack, and fire freely according to the intended target!" Zhu Shaoliang ordered softly.

Convoys gradually appeared on the highway. Before the nervous French entered the ambush circle, they shot continuously at the hill on the left. Dark red bullet marks flew to the hill. A bison armored vehicle raised its 30mm cannon and shot towards the hill. A string of high-explosive shells was fired, and a series of fireballs suddenly lit up on the top of the mountain.

Zhu Shaoliang looked at the raging flames rising not far away, and said to himself that it was fortunate that we set up an ambush halfway up the mountain instead of on the top of the mountain, otherwise we would not die or be seriously injured in this round of French blows.Even so, some people were unfortunately hit by shrapnel in the shoulder, and blood flowed profusely.The soldier gritted his teeth, trying not to make a sound.

"Hit!" With a low and firm voice, Zhu Shaoliang suddenly pressed the detonator button.

"Boom", a dazzling orange fireball suddenly shot up on the road, and the explosion of 3000 kilograms of high explosives immediately lifted the heavy MAX[-] main battle tank driving at the front, and the tank was lifted by the air wave. Turned over, rolled a few times on the road, rolled down from the other side of the cliff, and fell into the bottom of the unfathomable valley.

A Wolverine chariot behind also suffered bad luck, and the entire chariot was torn into a pile of parts flying in the air in the flames, and was thrown in all directions.

Several fire dragons shot out from the top of the mountain, flying towards the road with sharp whistling meteors and fire rain. "Boom boom boom" sounded endless explosions, and one after another French tanks were shot and exploded, throwing up thick black and red flames.Immediately afterwards, several fire dragons shot onto the road, and the single-soldier cloud bombs danced with a light blue dazzling light on the road. The fireball quickly spread and turned orange, swallowing a large area of ​​vehicle wreckage and shocks on the road. French soldiers called.

The high temperature of thousands of degrees turned those French soldiers into burning corpses on the spot. The violently burning fuel sucked out the surrounding oxygen at once. The nearby French soldiers who were not within the explosion range strangled their necks one by one, trying hard to breathe. , But everything was in vain, their eyeballs bulged, they struggled feebly, and finally fell on the side of the road.

"Da da da", flames spewed out from the top of the mountain, and the bullets ruthlessly harvested the lives of the remaining French people. The French people scurrying like rats crossing the street were knocked down one after another, and fell on the road in all directions.However, the French quickly reacted, and a bison armored vehicle rushed over from behind. The shooter on the vehicle fired a 30mm machine gun and prepared to counterattack at the top of the mountain. Puff, after a sound like a layer of rags was pierced, A 12.7mm heavy sniper bullet turned the French soldier's head into a cloud of blood.

"Pfft", another bullet penetrated into the cab. The bullet entered from the driver's shoulder and penetrated into the body, almost cutting half of the body from the left shoulder obliquely, and the whole person was split into two alive. .The car leaned to the side of the road and stopped, and then a grenade went into the car and exploded. The flames flashed, and the powerful impact broke through the restraints of the armored car's shell. vintage convertible car.

Lu Changqing pulled the bolt and pushed an armor-piercing incendiary bomb into the barrel, then he quickly turned the muzzle, aimed at a Wolverine wheeled armored vehicle and pulled the trigger. There was a "bang", and the fuel tank of the armored vehicle was pierced. Immediately start a fire.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he quickly moved the hiding place.

"Whoosh", another fire dragon shot at the rear row of the convoy, and the cloud explosion blasted a ball of blue light, and with a loud noise, several chariots behind were mercilessly swallowed by the fireball.

"Da da da...", the Longjun machine gunners shot at the French fleeing on the road to their heart's content, killing these panicked French devils one by one like a rabbit.

Middle East Storm Chapter 829 Battle of Mount Zagros

Zhu Shaoliang glanced at his luminous watch, and gave an order in a low voice: "It's time! Prepare to retreat!"

All the Chinese soldiers who were firing fiercely stopped shooting one after another, put away their weapons and ran quickly towards the back hill, and a few soldiers carrying individual bazookas ran at the end.As soon as the soldiers started to retreat, Zhu Shaoliang and Hu Sanyu quickly put away the tent, opened a stone slab on the ground, and a hole appeared below.The two drilled in through the hole and covered the stone slab.

The French reconnaissance plane that had been here not long ago turned back again. The plane did not find any targets at high altitude. After circling a circle, it slowly lowered its altitude, but still did not find any targets.The sound of jet engines sounded in the air not far away, and two Spitfire fighter jets flew from a distance.The fighters, like the reconnaissance planes, also failed to spot any targets.After circling a few times, the two planes randomly dropped the bombs they carried on the top of the hill, then the plane shook its wings and returned to the south.

"Threat cleared!" the pilots reported to their superiors.

More than ten minutes later, a group of French transport planes appeared in the sky. They slowly lowered their altitude on the side of the road that had been burned into a dragon, and jumped out one after another. They looked for survivors and lifted those who survived. On the transport plane sent to the rear hospital for treatment.

Immediately afterwards, the transport plane that followed continued to patrol nearby, trying to find the attacker and then launched an attack immediately. After the search was fruitless, the altitude was gradually lowered. French soldiers with live ammunition jumped out of the plane one after another, and quickly landed on the ground. Scattered in all directions, ready to find the whereabouts of the attackers.

With the development of science and technology, the weapons of anti-guerrilla warfare in countries around the world are becoming more and more advanced. In fact, in the final analysis, they are nothing more than: reconnaissance aircraft, radar, special forces, air strikes and local puppet troops.

The reconnaissance plane that may appear at any time wanders over any corner of the enemy country, can find the opponent at any time, and send the information back to the headquarters. At critical moments, the artillery carried by the reconnaissance plane can also launch attacks on important targets; special forces are Supplemented by reconnaissance planes and radars, elite special forces supported by long-range projection forces can appear in any corner at any time to attack the discovered guerrillas; means!As for the local puppet army, it is a more important factor. Just like submarines are the nemesis of submarines in the ocean, the locals are the best opponents of the locals!

Then, these modern warfare routines all have means of defusing them: both reconnaissance aircraft and radar are susceptible to interference, and the means of interference are always much cheaper and simpler than detection equipment.It is the best way to use special forces to deal with special forces; the way to deal with air strikes is simpler, as long as you hide yourself well, you will not be attacked by air power.As for the local puppet army?Most of them are vulnerable in themselves, and at most they are used for appearance in key battles, or driven to the position as cannon fodder for the first wave.

The Iraqis are not the puppet army of the French. The two sides are at most partners in cooperation to resist aggression. Moreover, the two sides often have differences in military policies and strategies and do not trust each other. Therefore, more often, the French have to implement the puppet army themselves It is a pity that the French are not locals and are not familiar with the local terrain after all, so those "fake and inferior substitutes for the puppet army" are not very effective in the mountains of Iraq.In order to better perform tasks and strike the enemy, the French Supreme Command sent additional special forces and mountain divisions to Iraq, hoping to improve the results of the battle.

Every move of the French was watched by Zhu Shaoliang who was hiding in the cave. Hu Sanyu next to him asked softly anxiously: "Brigade Commander, how do we deal with these French?"

"We don't need to do anything! Someone will take care of them!" Zhu Shaoliang replied softly.

The sound insulation in the cave is relatively good, otherwise, even if they speak softly, the French special forces outside are likely to find the hidden dragon soldiers.

The French were extraordinary as soon as they made a move. There was a series of continuous explosions on the mountain road. It was the French special forces using grenades to destroy the mines left by the soldiers of the Dragon Army.

However, some of the "extraordinary" French special forces soon encountered bad luck. In the darkness, two shadows were quietly groping towards the hiding place of a two-man team of French snipers.

"There are people behind!" A French soldier warned his accomplice with gestures.

Turning his head, two figures appeared in the low-light night vision device, with a typical Western figure, a typical Kevlar helmet, and a typical French military uniform. Even the weapon in his hand was a legal MAS36 rifle.

"Is it one of our own?" The French snipers hesitated a bit. Although they said that according to the deployment plan, their accomplices should not appear here, they may also be members of their brother troops.The hesitant French snipers decided to check the matter through the individual radio station, but they had no chance. The silent pistol in the visitor's hand let out two slight coughs, and the two French special forces saw God on the spot .

After two tall Dragon Army special forces killed the French sniper, a Lee Enfield sniper rifle, two M1 carbines, two Browning pistols and eight grenades became Chinese trophies, and two French soldiers were killed Before, their individual radio station had no time to destroy it, and it was searched by the Chinese intact.

The corpse was dragged into the grass and hidden. Through the French individual radio station, the location of the rest of the French special forces was clear at a glance, and they could monitor the activities of the French army at any time.The French special forces in charge of the search did not know that their sniper team had been wiped out from behind. These Frenchmen were still searching step by step.

The captain of the Special Forces of the Dragon Army was intoxicated and hid under a rock. He held a Huaxia 98 automatic rifle in his hand. Unlike ordinary special forces, he did not use a low-light sight at night.Because when you use luminous goggles, opponents who are also equipped with luminous goggles can easily find the location of your luminous goggles.Shen Zui is also a master sniper who has been fed with hundreds of thousands of bullets, he can detect the target with the faint starlight, and accurately snipe the target without hesitation.

Shen Zui's camouflage net can prevent the opponent's low-light luminous mirror from finding him. At this time, the shadow of a Frenchman appeared on the mountain road 200 meters away. Shen Zui aimed at a seemingly dangerous guy, and lightly pulled the trigger. There was a slight gunshot, and the target disappeared from the scope.He quickly turned the muzzle of the gun again, aimed at a guy who was about to get down, and then pulled the trigger. "Poof" was another slight gunshot, and the target let out a muffled grunt and fell to the ground.

The French soldiers who were attacked got down one after another, and the Huaxia 98 automatic rifle made the Frenchmen in the dark be shot dead in succession, but they still couldn't find the location of the attacker for a while.

"Poof" was another gunshot, and a French soldier was hit by a bullet in the thigh.

The French soldiers who didn't know where the attackers were fired wildly in all directions. The gunshots pierced the silent night sky and echoed in the valley for a long time without calming down.

With a contemptuous smile on the corner of Shen Zui's mouth, he pulled the trigger for the last time at this sniper point, and sent another Frenchman to God with another shot.After firing this shot, Shen Zui quickly slid down a big rock, turned around and dodged into the corner of the valley entrance, and left his sniper spot without anyone noticing.

Three French soldiers were killed and one wounded, but not even a hair of the enemy sniper was injured.

Not long after, Shen Zui appeared from behind the Frenchman again, and the Huaxia 98 rifle fired two shots in a row, and two more French soldiers were sent to report to God.

At this time, there was a roar of turboshaft engines in the air, and the French attack planes passed through the night sky like ghosts.The French pilots on board kept searching for ground targets with searchlights and millimeter-wave radar, and soon, a dangerous target finally appeared on the millimeter-wave radar screen!The French had discovered where Drunk was hiding.

The Spitfire quickly lowered its altitude and swooped in the direction where the Chinese sniper was hiding. The chain cannon under the belly of the machine was aimed at the target. As long as the pilot pressed the button, he could tear the nasty Chinese sniper into pieces.At this moment, another Spitfire acting as a cover found two "own soldiers" on the ground. Since they were their own family members, the French pilot did not pay attention.

The conversation between the French special forces and the pilots was clearly heard by the two Dragon Army special forces disguised as French soldiers through the captured radio. They knew very well what the two French fighters wanted to do.
