Iron Germany

In northern Iran, the positions of the Iranian Army's 1st Army and 2nd Army were also suddenly attacked by the Russian 47th Army and 51st Army. The sudden attack made the Iranian Army's 1st Army and 2nd Army a little flustered. Before he could react, the front line had already been lost.

No way, under the suggestion of the German adviser, the Iranian Army's 1st Army and 2nd Army had to abandon their front-line positions and began to retreat.

It's just that the 6th and 54th tank divisions of the Russian 47th Army performed very well in this battle. Although on the Western Front, the Russian T-28 medium tanks, T-26 light tanks and BT-7 fast tanks were completely killed by the German tiger and leopard tanks. However, on the battlefield in the Middle East, they suddenly regained the feeling of being the protagonist of the battlefield.

Although a tank division of the Russian army is only equipped with more than a hundred tanks. However, the frontline troops of the Kingdom of Iran did not even have a single tank, and all of them were pure infantry. Although the Kingdom of Iran also has an armored division. But the equipment is insufficient, and the personnel are still in training, so they have not formed combat effectiveness at all. This allows them to rely on those anti-tank weapons to fight back when facing the Russian tank attack.

If the well-trained German army manipulated these anti-tank weapons, it might be able to make the Russian tank troops pay a heavy price. After all, the tanks of the Russian army are weak in defense, and 37mm anti-tank guns can easily destroy them. But unfortunately, the quality of the Iranian army is limited, and they simply cannot use the combat power of those anti-tank weapons. So much so that their performance on the battlefield is very bad.

"boom!"

A T-28 tank of the Russian army opened fire, and a high-explosive shell hit a machine gun fire point of the Iraqi army. The entire machine gun fire point was blown away in the explosion. The Iraqi machine gunner hiding behind was also killed.

"Da da da!"

The machine guns on the Russian tanks fired wildly, and the Iraqi soldiers couldn't even raise their heads under the heavy bullets. Those who accidentally popped their heads have been shot, so that the remaining soldiers can only hold their heads and shrink in the trenches, trembling.

"Bastard! Anti-tank guns, kill the Russian tanks!" An officer shouted loudly.

A 37mm anti-tank gun was pushed up and aimed at the Russian tank.

"Boom!"

The anti-tank gun fired, and the 37mm armor-piercing projectile, like cutting tofu with a knife, easily cut through the armor of the T-28 medium tank. The armor-piercing shell hit the ammunition rack, detonating the shells on it. The entire tank became a pile of burning scrap iron.

"Long live!" The soldiers cheered.

However, at this moment, a BT-7 fast tank has already circled to the side of the anti-tank gun.

"Boom!" The 45mm tank gun fired.

The anti-tank gun was directly blown up, and the anti-tank artillery also suffered heavy casualties.

Although the Iranian army resisted, the Russian army led with two tank divisions. Under the impact of the Russian tank troops, the Iraqi army's defense line was easily broken through.

"Surrender! I surrender! Don't kill me!"

A young Iraqi soldier saw the Russian tanks rolling over him, so frightened he knelt down on the ground and raised his hands in surrender.

However, the tank soldiers of the Russian army seemed to turn a blind eye to this, and ran over him directly.

The tank's tracks were on the ground, leaving two long bloody marks.

More and more Iraqi soldiers began to retreat. They were very powerless in front of the Russian tanks and could only choose to escape.

However, the legs are obviously not comparable to tanks and armored vehicles. Many soldiers had no choice but to surrender after being caught up.

The Russian army did not kill all the surrendered Iraqi troops, but accepted their surrender. Only a small number of Russian troops killed the surrendered Iraqi troops because they couldn't stop.

Bu Russia wants to liberate the whole world. If the captives are massacred, this will inevitably arouse the hatred of the Iranians. At that time, how will they win the support of the Iranians?

Under the attack of the Russian army, the 1st Army and 2nd Army of the Iranian Army retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses. They are not opponents of the Russian tank troops at all in field battles.

With no alternative, the Iranian Army's 1st and 2nd Army had to retreat to Tabriz, trying to rely on the city there to resist the Russian attack. After all, in urban street fighting, the combat effectiveness of tank troops will be greatly restricted. And the superiority of troops will be brought into play. In this case, even if the Iranian army cannot withstand the attack of the Russian army, it can persist. Most importantly, more time can be bought.

The commander of the Iranian Army believes that the German Army will never turn a blind eye to this. Soon, the German Army will send reinforcements over. They just need to hold back the Russian army and buy time for the arrival of the German army.

But the Russian army obviously knows this too. Therefore, their attacks are very fast. If it weren't for the lack of mechanization or motorization of the troops, and they could only rely on their legs when marching, it is estimated that the advancing speed of the Russian army would be even faster.

Even so, the Russian army took the initiative to launch an offensive in the Middle East, which shocked the whole world.

Originally, the Russian army suffered heavy losses on the Western Front, allowing the whole world to see the strength of the German army and the weakness of the Russian army. I thought that in this war, the Russian army had nothing to do. It could only rely on its vast depth and strength to resist the German attack step by step and consume the German army's vital strength. Wait until other countries join the war before launching a counterattack. Perhaps, it is possible to defeat Germany. Of course, the possibility of failure is also greater. After all, the performance of the German army in this war was really too strong.

But everyone did not expect that the Russian army still had the strength to launch a counterattack in the direction of the Persian Gulf in the Middle East when the main force suffered heavy losses. Moreover, the performance of the Russian army is still very good. This makes other countries can't help but face up to the power of the Russian army. It was not because the Russian army was too weak, but because the German army was too strong, that's why they suffered a disastrous defeat on the Western Front.

At the same time, the offensive direction chosen by the Russian army is undoubtedly very good. If successful, this will undoubtedly cause serious damage to Germany. At least, because of the lack of oil resources, the combat effectiveness of the advanced weapons and equipment of the German army can no longer be brought into play. Therefore, the United States and the island countries are all looking forward to the victory of Russia's offensive.
