Just as the German forward Hube Group on the left had just defeated the Walker Battle Group and achieved its first major victory since the war began. The German army on the right was worrying about the safety of its logistics supply line. Compared with the offensive line of the left, the right

The front was too long. The German troops on two routes

The strength of the troops is about the same, and longer supply lines mean a decrease in the density of cover troops. This gives the British Rangers more opportunities. Nowadays, these guys who ride in high-mobility vehicles and haunt the desert and Gobi like ghosts have

It began to have a major impact on Germany's logistics transportation lines.

Compared with the German army on the left, the British did not deploy many troops on the front. Montgomery concentrated the British troops on the core position and allowed the Germans to drive straight in. The Germans were cautious at first, but then found that there was nothing worthy of praise.

After the obstacles, their progress is getting faster and faster. However, the speed of logistical support is lagging behind. When the German leader

When the troops were preparing to deploy on the front line and hoarding ammunition and supplies in preparation for war, the British rangers finally attacked Germany's fragile transportation lines and military stations along the lines. Although the British made a lot of preparations and had a lot of mental calculations

Unintentionally. But after spending the happy time at the beginning, if the British want to win, they also need to go through some careful planning.

"The actual situation is somewhat different from the intelligence we obtained before. The intelligence said that the Germans did not deploy combat anti-aircraft artillery to this supply depot numbered as roadblock. This is true, but they deployed some 40mm Bofors around it.

Anti-aircraft guns. This thing is equally deadly to us. So our plan must be reworked. In addition, we do not have enough personnel.

We only have one company, and there are about 300 people in the depot plus the temporary personnel. They have reasonably constructed simple fortifications, including machine guns and machine guns. Although they have not deployed minefields, they are still not something we can attack.

." The short noncommissioned officer nicknamed Mole had a frustrated face. Looking back on the smooth beginning, this period of time can be described as hard work.

Mole is still recalling the victory of the past few days, when his team ambushed a German transport convoy under the guidance of the Iranians. Everything was as written in the textbook. When the two cars guarding the convoy were

After the mine exploded, it was equipped with a 57mm gun

The tanks with artillery and machine guns quickly destroyed the German armored vehicles and towed artillery 800 meters away. The German logistics troops jumped out of the vehicles in a chaotic manner and decisively withdrew to the other side of the roadbed, preparing to rely on the cover of the roadbed and vehicles.

They stubbornly resisted. The result made the Germans think

Unexpectedly, when they had just added machine guns and mortars to prepare for a counterattack, the machine guns hidden behind them swept away these people like wheat. About a company of troops and at least 30 vehicles, in less than 10 seconds, they

Within a quarter of an hour, it was cleared by my own team.

The only fly in the ointment was that the fierce attack also destroyed the weapons and ammunition transported on the vehicle. So Mole and the others could only continue to use the Bren machine guns in their hands and the Sten submachine gun, known as the plumber's masterpiece. The latter

In the eyes of British soldiers, it has no other advantages except simplicity.

In fact, this British team does not want to attack the military station directly. After all, the latter has at least simple bunkers and some heavy weapons. And there will be more troops. The British are very aware of their own power. If they simply rely on the power in their hands,

If you are a little negligent, you will lose all your money, but the reality is that Mole's team must capture this fortress.

, because one of their secret supply points was discovered by the Germans, and the remaining fuel and ammunition not only could not support them to continue fighting, but even returning home became a luxury, unless they were willing to abandon their vehicles and walk across the vast Gobi desert on two legs.

There is a saying in Europe that you should not stop the troops returning home. But in order for the British to go home, they had no choice but to take risks and rob this roadside military station.

However, the British believe in God and have not abandoned them. Just two days ago, they contacted a guerrilla group organized by the Iranian government. Although they lacked heavy weapons, they were better in numbers. This group was called the Camel Tour by the British.

There were about 200 cavalry guerrillas, which just made up for the lack of numbers, and finally made the British attack plan a reality.

"The Iranians have a large number of people, but are poorly equipped. Facing machine gun and machine gun fire during the daytime attack is nothing but death. Our only way is to attack at night. The enemy is visible and we are secretive. We create opportunities by creating chaos, although during the day we

The firepower will definitely not defeat the opponent, but

At night, we can avoid the firing range of those deadly 40mm machine guns, and then close to 500 to 600 meters to launch an attack. As long as we can cause a short period of chaos to cover the Iranians to rush into the camp, then we will win." A look remained on his face.

The platoon leader with a scar said.

"Although this method is a bit unethical, but...well. We are British and they are Iranians. That's it. Tell Billy to let the Iranians pay attention and get as close to the target as possible before we meet again. Otherwise, even if we meet again

At night, the German machine guns and flares can still kill them all." Lieutenant James, who was leading the team, hesitated and said.

"What did they say?" An hour later, when the second lieutenant saw the scar-faced platoon leader returning with a bearded Iranian, he asked eagerly. From the other person's eyes, he saw confusion and confusion.

Doubtful. Could it be that the Iranians didn’t agree with his action? He thought it was possible. After all, anyone who had attended a military academy would know the dangers of doing so. If the Iranians didn’t agree, then Lieutenant James would have no choice but to give up the action. Then

Instead, they asked the Iranians to help them get some gasoline so that they could go to the next supply point.

"I know your plan. I studied in a military academy. Well, to be more precise, I studied in a military academy in China. I specialized in guerrilla warfare. To be honest, your idea disappoints us. In your plan, I only

You can see naked exploitation instead of cooperation! You have never regarded us as allies.

Treat it. So..." At this point, the guerrilla leader with an Islamic-style beard gave up. "So, do you want more remuneration? Or are you not planning to cooperate?"

Second Lieutenant James looked at the other party in surprise. The other party answered in English.

"It's fun to be smart and work with smart people. You can take the fuel you need and the light and heavy weapons that match the number of combatants you have. But other materials, if there are code books or other things of special value, we must take them first.

"The other party replied.

"Are you taking orders from the Iranian government or China?" In an instant, James realized that the identity of the other party was not simple. Their goal was not to cause some disruption to the other party's logistics. It was to obtain some relatively sensitive things. In James' view,

Come on, their unit is simply not worth mentioning compared to the well-equipped British Rangers. The latter's equipment level has reached the peak of the battalion and company level troops. The former is just a ranger. Faced with

With such an inconspicuous force, even if the Germans discover it, they will put the attack order at the end?

"It's not important. In any case, we are comrades now. As long as you can agree to our conditions, and then after we launch the attack, both sides can launch a concentric assault on this base. We can completely contain us in person

We are enemy troops, I just hope you can do what you should do." The Iranian glanced at James and said, minding his own business.

"How do you solve this problem?" James asked curiously. He didn't care about the Iranians, but because if this operation failed, they would have no choice but to abandon these precious vehicles and choose to walk or ride like the Iranians.

Camels wandered in the wilderness.

"We will naturally have our own methods. If we just create chaos, we may be more professional than you. Although our equipment is simple, it is enough to complete the scheduled mission." This Iranian is not friendly to the United Kingdom.

The attack will be carried out at night. Under the cover of night, the British slowly drive their tanks out of hiding, and the team responsible for clearing the sentries has already brought guns with silencers to clear the nails. The team responsible for fire support

The mortar team set up the artillery and waited quietly for the battle to come. The British needed to reduce the charging time as much as possible and mortar

The attacks of artillery and 57mm cannons will not last too long. Mortars have a fast rate of fire and can theoretically fire about a dozen shells in a minute. They must shorten the attack time as much as possible before the opponent can react.

, quickly suppressed the opponent. Although the Iranians promised to do better, James was not optimistic about the opponent.

At the same time, the Iranian guerrilla captain named Ahmadi directed his men to put long boxes off the camels. Just before night was about to cover the entire land, several half-ton jeeps came from a distance.

We arrived at the Iranian ambush site. The rear parts of these vehicles were covered with canvas. The contents inside were their decisive weapons in this battle.

What is different from what the British think is that the equipment in the hands of these Iranian guerrillas is not as weak as it seems. Some of these so-called Iranians are originally Chinese, but they just look like Iranians. In the UK

In the eyes of people, or most Europeans, there is no difference between the ethnic minorities in Xinjiang and Central Asia and the Iranians. The camel cavalry is just a part of the entire guerrilla force. The long-range support firepower and heavy equipment of this guerrilla force

They will only join the frontline troops during battle.
