Chapter 1515 The Disappearing Iraqi Air Force Attacks

In the area to the southwest of the Iraqi capital, a huge team of tanks is moving slowly, especially in unmanned areas in the desert. Some underground tunnels that were originally buried in the sand have also been opened with entrances and exits. Slowly got out of the ground.

These tanks are suddenly the missing dragon guards in Iraq. They are all painted with yellow-brown desert camouflage. The missiles on the missile launching module behind the missiles also show hideous features.The lid on the barrel of the tank gun is also opened, and shells can be fired at the enemy at any time.

"Report, the first division is ready and ready to attack!"

"Report, the third division has completed the assembly and can reach the south of Calabar within an hour..."

"Reported that the Independent Armored Brigade of the Presidential Guard has completed preparations for combat..."

"Report that the attack helicopter regiment has completed preparations and can be put into battle in half an hour..."

In the desert less than 80 kilometers north of Calabar, a huge underground command center is operating at full capacity. There is no satellite monitoring picture or even too many advanced technology equipment.

Some only have some old-fashioned radio communication devices, and the communication networks in it all use old-fashioned telegraphs!

The sound of the "Dididi" telegraph transceiver is like melodious music, which sounds very pleasing to the eye.

With the sound of Didi's telegram, the intelligence staff team kept reporting to the head of the Tikrit army, Qasim, who was closing his eyes and resting.

The Americans are looking for the Tikrit Army. The troops to which Qasim belongs have little time to show up. Even the Iraqi military rarely mentions them, just like this one hundred thousand troops are in There is no general in Iraq.

At the beginning of its development, this unit, all its weapons and equipment, and its most core elite were hidden, preparing to launch a deadly attack on the Americans in the latter part of the war.

The Iraqis have been preparing for this war for too long.

"Report to the president that we have completed our offensive preparations! The Americans have fallen into our encirclement..." After receiving various reports, Qassem stood up.

They had known the news of the nuclear attack on Baghdad a long time ago. Many of the core members of the Tikrit army and many family members were in Baghdad.

At this time, everyone is paying attention to the news of their families, but as the president's most loyal army, they have a sacred mission.

Now, it's time for them to serve the president.

The entire Tikrit army, all officers, from the commander to the most basic company platoon leader, all came from Tikrit.

Originally there was only one Tikrit division. At the end of the Iran-Iraq War, it was expanded to the rank of the army, and even the number of the entire army far exceeded the conventional army establishment. There were more than 100,000 soldiers, and many soldiers were from other units. Experienced soldiers drawn from inside.

"Commander, do we need to change our combat plan? In the current situation, the US 3rd Infantry Division has fewer troops than us, fewer tanks than us, and even their support is farther than us... once we Unable to complete the annihilation mission in a short period of time, their 3rd Cavalry Division and other troops will encircle us!" As the commander of the first regiment, Mubashar had an amazing instinct for war.

They were the first troops to come into contact with the Dragon Guard tank, and they have a very in-depth understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of the Dragon Guard tank.

Dragon Guard has air defense capabilities, but it is not very advantageous in the face of huge air cluster attacks.

Air defense missiles such as Houyi-3 are advanced enough and have too short range.

When the fighter is at its maximum speed, these missiles can fall down due to exhaustion of fuel in less than twenty seconds.

"There is no need to change the combat plan. Our troops on the Iranian border are entering our territory. The Americans have not yet responded. After eating the third infantry division of the US military here, our task is to go south and swallow the US military. More troops!" Qasim said, shaking his head."As for the US air strikes, don't worry now, our air force will carry out the first wave of strikes against the US army!"

"Our air force..." Mubashar couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Baghdad gathered a large number of their fighter planes. As a result, these fighter planes were destroyed by the nuclear bombs of the US military before they had time to take effect on the battlefield.

Qasim did not explain.

At this time, Saddam in Baquba was also waiting for news from his most loyal general.

Liu Suxue was still calm, after all, it had nothing to do with him.

"Report, Shebal from the Soviet Union applied to see you..." a lieutenant colonel said to Saddam who was rubbing his head.

"He was in charge of the Soviet Union's foreign intelligence before!" Saddam turned his head to face Liu Suxue next to him.

Liu Suxue nodded.

The president did not understand what the Soviets meant to see him at this time.

Just as he was about to speak, a colonel came in and reported to him, "The report, General Qassim is ready to complete, request the President to issue an attack order!"

When Saddam heard this, his whole body suddenly became energetic.

"Is our air force ready for war?" Saddam can't see too many troops now. Their air force, except for a few helicopters, can't see anything that can fly.

"The cluster bombs that the Americans provided to us during the Iran-Iraq War have all been hung under the wings of our fighter planes!"

Hashim answered the president.

"Then let our fighter planes take off and tell the Americans that the Iraqi army did not fall because our capital was destroyed! Kill the Americans and rebuild our homeland!" Saddam did not want to rebuild Iraq at this time. of.

What he needs is to retaliate against the US military.

With the secret help of the young Chinese, Iraq became the most important country in the Gulf region after the end of the Iran-Iraq War, and its influence even surpassed that of Saudi Arabia.

The Americans are also very helpful here.

The Americans not only cooperated fully at the beginning, but even before the war, they provided Saddam with a lot of military equipment in order to confuse Saddam. In the past, the Americans still cared about international public opinion. Provide weapons and equipment to Iraq through Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

Of course, the weapons and equipment provided by the United States are only those Patton tanks that have been eliminated by the US military or are about to be eliminated...

Now, Saddam prepares to let their air force carry bombs supported by the Americans, ready to be dropped on the heads of the US military.

Around Baghdad, in many small cities not bombed by the US military, the roads on the ground are still spacious and there are many factories around. They were originally light industrial production factories, just like Baquba. After the president gave orders, these factories It also became noisy inside.

The disappeared air force fighters in Iraq gradually revealed their figures after the doors of these factories were opened.

The silver-gray painting is still so radiant. The nuclear dust shrouded in Baghdad and the numerous nuclear particles floating in the sky over Baghdad cannot cover the light of these fighters.

The pilot was already dressed neatly and sat in the cockpit.

The ground crew has already checked these fighters over and over again, and bombs all the hanging points under the wings.

Anyway, they are very close to the mission site, these fighters do not consider whether the heavy load will affect the range.

There are not only air-to-ground bombs, but also air-to-air missiles.

In some workshops, only one fighter plane stayed in them, and in some workshops, there were a few aircraft in them.

Under the gesture of the ground crew commander wearing a special vest, these fighters slowly moved towards the entrance of the factory under the push of the ground crew.

Without a command tower, all fighters are commanded by ground personnel.

Fortunately, at the beginning, these places were taken into consideration, and the fighters would not be affected by each other when they took off.

In more than a dozen small cities around Baghdad, the newly built light steel structure factory buildings are constantly pushing out fighters. When these fighters reached the wide asphalt road outside, they began to breathe flames from the tail and began to slide on the road. , Lift off.

They will be the first wave of Iraqi forces to retaliate against the US military.

At the same time, Baghdad's long-range missile force, covering the long-range rocket launcher force in the Abu Amer area, also emerged from hidden buildings, and many of them even emerged from the desert.

Under the command of the commander, these missiles and long-range rocket launchers began to adjust shooting parameters. All targets were directed at the vicinity of the US Third Infantry Division.

According to the plan, Iraq’s long-range forces will strike at the attack helicopter station of the US Third Division, and at the same time, strike against other US troops on the ground that are coming for reinforcements.

To the north and southeast of the Third Infantry Division, a large armored unit began to roar when the fighter took off and rushed towards the location of the US Third Infantry Division.The many tanks that had stayed on the border also rushed in this direction.

A large-scale ground battle is about to kick off.

The US Third Mech Infantry Division Command is still asking the Department of Defense about their next mission.

"The Ministry of Defense hasn't instructed yet? I still can't get in touch with the headquarters?" Major General Brian, the commander of the Third Infantry Division, was in a bad mood these days.

As a general, an American general with lofty ambitions, he thought war would be a good opportunity for them to play.

However, in the Iraq War, due to intelligence errors, etc., they suffered heavy losses. Now the Third Mechanic Infantry Division can be regarded as deep into the enemy's hinterland, but was ordered by the front-line command to stand by.

This makes Brian feel very bad.

"Report! The Iraqis are attacking us!" Suddenly, the report of the intelligence staff made Brian jump up.
