Babylonian Empire

Because of the heavy rain, many people had no sleep at night.

Ahvaz.

Abel stood in front of the map, thinking all the time:.

To organize this counterattack, and choose to attack from the swamp, this is his established idea, but it has been debated in the military for a long time.

Abel knew that many people had begun to oppose him, especially the rift between him and Khomeini. Khomeini was very dissatisfied with some actions that he did not support him.

I tried my best to choose to attack from this position, so that I could drive the Iraqis back in the fastest time.

The situation in Iran is not stable, especially Khomeini's purge in the army, the combat effectiveness of the army has not yet recovered, and the country cannot support the huge war expenditure, so Abel chose to take the risk trick.

However, God seemed to be playing a joke on himself. Even though he had made sufficient preparations, he still underestimated the difficulty of passing through the swamp. heavy rain.

Almighty Allah will definitely take care of the Iranian people who believe in Him.

"Chairman, we have to consider other methods, should we withdraw the armored division?" General Sharaf said.

"No, we can't withdraw. Even if we withdraw now, can we withdraw?" Abel asked.

"Chairman, General, I have a suggestion." A staff officer said boldly.

"What advice? Go ahead." Abel agreed.

"We are currently equipped with large CH-47 Chinook helicopters. We can use these helicopters to provide air supplies to the armored divisions that have not yet left the swamp. Together with the existing supplies, they are enough to win a week's assault fight," said the officer.

Resupply by helicopter?This is also a method. In Iran's arsenal, the CH-47 Chinook helicopter is the largest helicopter.It is a multi-functional, twin-engine, twin-propeller medium-sized transport helicopter developed and manufactured by Boeing Company of the United States.Unlike ordinary helicopters, it adopts a dual-rotor tandem structure, with two propellers on the top of the head, front and rear, and no side propellers at the tail.

This type of helicopter has a cargo-carrying capacity of up to ten tons, and Iran has a total of 68 helicopters of this type, which are manufactured under license by the Italian Agusta Southern Helicopter Company. Due to a shortage of parts, half of them have been grounded, even if Thirty were transferred, and they could transport [-] tons of materials at a time, which was enough for use.

However, this can't solve the problem. The problem of the armored division now is that due to the heavy rain, the swamp is more muddy and the tanks cannot pass.

"We can let the helicopter load cement and throw a large amount of cement on the road that needs to go forward. After the cement falls into the swamp, it will solidify within two or three hours, and a road for tanks to pass is temporarily constructed. Although it is possible Won't hold up to the full weight of a tank, but will be much stronger than a single swamp."

If Abel is bold enough to attack in the swamp, the staff officer in front of him is even more whimsical, actually wanting to use cement to construct a road?

Building a passable road requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Can the road withstand the weight of more than 60 tons of tanks without other construction preparations?

"Sharaf, we need to do experiments to verify whether this method is feasible." Abel said.

The sky is gradually clearing up, and the weather in the Middle East is also changing.

The small team of Zhang Feng and Walih, nearly 30 people, was struggling on the muddy road, and the armored vehicles had been abandoned by them on the road.

There was thunder and lightning last night. It may be that Allah deliberately wanted to test the heroic Iraqi soldiers. The No. 01 armored vehicle unfortunately fell into the mud.

After working hard for half of the disappearance in the rain, everyone was exhausted. Unexpectedly, when they were about to get out of danger, the engine finally stopped working because of too much damage: continuous high-speed rotation, the engine broke down.The bearing bush between the crankshaft and the connecting rod is sintered, which is also a common problem of the Type 63 armored vehicles exported at the time. The engine is not good enough. If it is a German engine, there will be no problem.

Completely saddened, Zhang Feng wanted to cry but had no tears, went around, even went in the wrong direction, completely lost his way, and now, he couldn't even start the chariot, this training was really close to actual combat.

There was no other way, and the radio was broken, so Zhang Feng could not report the situation to the 35th Brigade Headquarters, so Zhang Feng had to order to abandon the car and go back on foot, just treat it as an armed cross-country.

Zhang Feng took all the soldiers and started the feat of returning from the swamp on foot. If he couldn't go back as soon as possible, at least Mohamed, the brigade commander of the 35th brigade, would be in big trouble. I don't know how his father would be furious.

The sky was blue, and after the rain had cleared, the sun didn't seem so vicious.The already wet military boots stepped on the slippery ground, moving forward silently.

Using the compass, Zhang Feng chose to head west, so that he could get out of the swamp from the nearest place. After going out, he quickly contacted the 35th brigade to avoid them going out to find him on a large scale.Even if you arrive at Halfaye within the national border, you can also contact the local garrison.

As long as you leave this abominable swamp, you can make another plan. After a heavy rain, the attack of the Persians will also be disrupted, and there will be no danger of being attacked for the time being.

A cobra with thick arms was gliding in the muddy ground. It already felt that prey was coming around, and there seemed to be many more.

Zhang Feng led the team and walked in the front. The current situation is very similar to his training in the unnamed mountain, and he is used to it.

Suddenly, he caught sight of a nearly two-meter-long reptile that was meandering towards it: the whole body was light gray, it was really invisible in the soil, and he was almost fooled by it, with a thick, oval head and round pupils , with large snout and cleft mouth, and well-developed stretch muscles at the junction of upper and lower jaws; fangs are short, and there is a brownish-yellow ring pattern on the neck. Glass pattern.

It's a cobra!

As soon as Zhang Feng raised his hand, the team behind stopped. They followed Zhang Feng's gaze and saw the cobra.

In Iran, Iraq and other places, there are often cobras, and more than a hundred people die every year because of cobra bites and poisoning. At the same time, most of the soldiers will catch cobras.

Not to mention Zhang Feng, catching snakes with bare hands is what every special forces member must do, not to mention that he is still fully armed.

It's been a long time since I've eaten snake gallbladder. I'm tired of eating the field rations these days.

The technique of catching a cobra is very simple, because a cobra can only see what is in front of it, so as long as you attract it with something in front, and pass slowly from behind with one hand, you can catch the cobra in one fell swoop, the key , Just be slow, otherwise, if the cobra is attracted by the hand, it will be troublesome, especially now, without anti-viral serum, as long as it is bitten, it will be completely hopeless.

Zhang Feng successfully attracted the cobra's attention with a wooden stick. He nimbly grasped the seven-inch position of the cobra with his right hand, moved up and down left and right, and pinched the cobra's head.

The cobra was shaking its body weakly, its life had come to an end.

Zhang Feng pulled out a multifunctional saber, quickly cut open the snake's stomach, and took out the snake gall, which was a good thing. He raised his head and put it directly into his mouth.

The feeling of icy cold penetrates into the heart and spleen, although it is a bit fishy, ​​it is also good.

Zhang Feng recollected the feeling just now, and chopped the snake meat into several pieces: "Come on, each of you eat a piece. After eating, you will have the strength to continue on your way."

A few soldiers took it over, but many people didn't do it:.

It takes courage to eat snake meat raw.

"One piece per person, this is an order." Zhang Feng said.Eating raw snake meat is like this. When I was training, I ate raw scorpions and lizards. If I had eaten all the field rations and hadn’t walked out of this damn swamp, this snake meat would be pretty good. thing.

The rest of the people had no choice but to take a piece each, put it in their mouths, closed their eyes, and chewed.

Hades, who was big and thick, took the snake meat in the end, and his painful expression was beyond words, which was even more terrifying than letting him charge in the hail of bullets.

"Eat, like me." Zhang Feng said, picked up a piece of snake meat, cut off a piece with a knife, put it in his mouth, and started chewing.

Snake meat is very chewy, Zhang Feng chewed hard with his teeth, holding his breath, lest the excessive fishy smell make him feel sick.

Eating these things raw is also one of the training subjects of the special forces. In the enemy's rear, in order to avoid being discovered by the enemy, fires are not allowed at all, and eating wild fruits and the like is not as good as the energy of these proteins.

Hades took the snake meat, followed Zhang Feng's example, closed his eyes, and chewed.

While eating, Zhang Feng looked into the distance. Suddenly, a strange phenomenon attracted his attention. Although it was washed by the heavy rain, the artificial traces were very obvious, especially the deep ruts that were pressed , there is definitely a convoy driving over it recently!

Chapter 29 Search and Rescue

Chapter 29 Search and Rescue——

Zhang Feng made a gesture, and all the fighters who were still eating snake meat immediately picked up their weapons, followed him, and touched it.

Carrying the missile, Hades thought to himself, just now when the snake meat was chewed carefully, amidst the fishy smell, there was indeed a fragrance of meat, which was much better than field rations.
