In this era, the industrial level of the Soviet Union is still very low. It is absolutely a truth to look at a country's industrial foundation, its automobile production, a country's scientific and technological level, and its large aircraft development.

Under the backward industrial conditions of the Soviet Union, only light trucks such as Gasi AA can be produced. This kind of vehicle uses a 40 HP 4-cylinder gasoline engine with a maximum speed of 70 km / h. It can be said that the performance of a tricycle in the future also exceeds it.

However, Gasi AA was the largest truck in the Soviet Union. At the beginning of the patriotic war, the Soviet Union was seriously short of materials and could even be driven by kerosene. On the basis of Gasi AA, the Soviet further developed Gasi AAA truck. The difference between the two vehicles is that the latter has three axles and the rear has two axles, which improves the load capacity, has off-road ability, and the engine used has also increased by 2 horsepower.

This kind of car is a two ton truck that Gorky automobile factory began mass production in 1935. Now it has been heavily equipped in the army.

An ordinary Infantry Division has two legs. If there is no train to take, it walks on two legs, which is no different from the war of the ancient army. The motorized infantry division is equipped with a certain number of trucks and can take trucks for mobility. Compared with two legs, the mobility is greatly improved.

Now the 402 infantry division can advance hundreds of kilometers a day on the narrow mountain road by taking the Gasi AAA truck. For example, now, they need to reinforce the front line quickly!

At the front of the infantry division was the reconnaissance company. Company commander Andre sat in the front car and looked at the distance with two eyes.

The car has only a simple cab and no door, which is convenient for personnel to get up and down. It is also a simple treatment on the basis of lack of raw materials, and Andre has a rotary table machine gun in his hand.

Although the rear has been occupied by the Soviets, there may still be some guerrillas to destroy them. Such people must be expelled quickly!

The car didn't turn on its lights for air defense.

The rear lights of the car behind are all equipped with light shields, which can only be seen by the next car and can not be seen from the sky.

So far, the number of Soviet aircraft operating in northern Iran is still rare, especially there are no night fighters at all. If they turn on their lights here, they may be bombed by other aircraft. It's too clear to see a long dragon on the road from the sky.

The night wind kept the people in the car awake, while the soldiers sitting in the carriage in the back of the car were already sleepy.

Time passed little by little. Cars bumped badly on the roads in the mountains.

"Creak!" Suddenly, the driver stepped on the brake and the tail lights behind him flashed. Therefore, the cars following him stopped and the whole team stopped.

"What's going on?" Shouted the battalion commander behind.

"There is a big stone on the road ahead. We need to move it first!"

When he came to see it, he almost hit it. Andre jumped out of the car and called the soldiers in the back car: "come on, get down and push the stones!"

This stone, a man high, rolled down from the top of the mountain. It looks like this. It's definitely not a natural phenomenon. Someone must have deliberately damaged it.

It seems that these so-called guerrillas have this ability!

Andre holds a rotary table machine gun and looks at his men shouting slogans and pushing stones together. He needs to protect the safety around him. If a guerrilla wants to sneak attack at this time, he must first ask whether the machine gun in his hand agrees or not!

Andre's eyes looked at the dark mountains in front. Now, he could hear the sound of running water. In front of them, it was only two or three kilometers away. It was the wuzan river. It was a small river in northern Iran. Because of the terrain, although the river was not wide, it was definitely fast flowing.

More than a dozen soldiers shouted and pushed the stones together. At this time, Andre suddenly pricked his ears. He heard a rumble from the sky?

Is it that the other side deliberately arranges stones here to block its own way, and then bombards it with planes in the sky?

"Pay attention to air defense!" Andre continued to shout. His men gave up pushing stones and began to look for shelter to hide temporarily.

Andre was not afraid. He climbed to a small hillside with his turntable machine gun. If a plane dared to dive down, he could kill the other party with his machine gun!

The sound is getting closer and closer, but I can't see anything.

Finally, Andre noticed the shadow in the sky. In a hazy way, the wing of the shadow seemed to be in the shape of an inverted seagull.

Well, the other party is still flying flat and has not dived. It seems that he has not found his own side!

Andre held his breath and watched the plane fly over his head and fly away. He didn't find his own side! At this time, of course, he will not shoot at the air and recruit the other party.

Andre breathed a sigh of relief and became nervous again. And!

In the back, another bomber flew by!

Fortunately, it flew away again.

Just then, in front, suddenly came a huge explosion.

"Boom!" The earth moves and the mountains shake. The explosion will not be very far away from your side! In the distant night sky, it suddenly flashed. It seems that the other party threw a flare.

What are they doing? Our troops have not arrived there yet!

Andre looked at the bright sky ahead. The clearly visible Stuka bomber was diving down and attacking. Suddenly, he realized something.

Damn it, these damn guys!

Andre threw off his legs and ran forward quickly. He held the turntable machine gun to his chest with both hands and then carried it to his shoulders. He seemed to be crazy and ran forward for a few kilometers.

When he turned the foot of the mountain over there, he suddenly saw clearly.

On the wuzan River, the bridge between the two mountains is gone!

The bridge deck was completely blown up, and there were no two piers deep into the water, and there were no approach bridges on both sides. If it were not for the countless broken concrete under the water, it would be like that the bridge had never existed!

Put down the machine gun, Andre sat down on the ground, looked at the rolling wuzan River, and scolded each other's old mother in his heart.

Damn it, I blew up the bridge here! If you build the bridge again, it will be too late, because the mountain road can only accommodate one-way traffic, and there are too few places to meet. Even if there are bridge cars behind, you can't get through.

If you detour... You have to detour hundreds of kilometers. What's more terrible is that those mountain roads can't be crossed by cars. They can only walk past!
