The moving speed of towed artillery is very slow. They need to be towed by cars to reach the position, and it also takes time to expand after reaching the position.
Now, the Iraqi artillery are preparing nervously.
The mechanized artillery brigade in Iraq, carrying 13 94mm howitzers and the field artillery brigade of the Iraqi infantry division, has 12 8.16kg cannons and 4 114mm howitzers. At this time, they are opening their own field.
In addition to these, some Iraqi tribal armed forces have also participated in this operation. They are also angry with the British occupying forces. Moreover, they have other purposes. Once they capture the positions of the British army, they can go in and rob the East and West!
At this time, everyone was moving in disorder. The gunner shook the handle vigorously and supported the gun barrel. At this time, a sharp eyed gunner looked ahead: "the British took off again!"
They took a taxi around the British airport, but the British could take off warplanes to bomb them. It was like falling in love and killing each other.
The artillery are definitely not bayonet fighting arms. They prefer to hide behind and secretly fire. When they see those planes taking off from the runway, they panic.
"Where's the antiaircraft gun? Where are our antiaircraft guns? " The commander of the artillery brigade asked loudly. At this time, they urgently need anti-aircraft guns to protect themselves.
However, no one answered him that the establishment of the Iraqi army was not complete, and the anti-aircraft artillery was not in their army at all!
Hataki's fighters took off again, still full of bombs and rockets. At this critical juncture, the British air force must defend itself with fearless courage!
The cockpit of the P-40 fighter has a good view. From here, he can clearly see the Iraqi artillery position in front. After taking off, he can dive down and attack as long as he turns!
However, just when he wanted to turn around, he found that several bright spots were coming in the eastern sky. Suddenly, he attracted his eyes. What was that?
The bright spot is rapidly magnified, and hataki soon sees it clearly. He is very familiar with an aircraft, MC200 lightning produced in Italy! Of course, now it's not the Italian air force, but the Iraqi air force that bought this fighter!
What did he think of? His own side actually ignored an important factor. He was surrounded here by these Iraqis and only thought about the immediate battle. He had no long-term vision at all!
First of all, we should bomb all the bases of the Iraqi air force and blow up their planes on the runway. Now, the Iraqi air force is sneaking into our own side!
On the ground, the artillery cheered. At the beginning, they were still worried about being bombed by British planes. Now they don't need it at last!
"Found Iraqi fighters, Kingfisher ready to intercept." Hataki shouted quickly on the radio. Then he pressed the button.
The bomb landed on the open space outside the airport and exploded. The 1000 pound bomb would seriously limit his mobility. He had to throw away the bomb before he could fight with Iraqi fighters.
After all, Italy's MC200 fighter is the latest advanced fighter developed by Italy. It has an all metal structure and adopts a powerful engine. The aircraft has a speed of 500 kilometers per hour. It is already in the advanced ranks in this era.
Hataki, who dropped the bomb, flew towards the Iraqi plane. At the same time, the fighters behind him also made the same choice. They must first deal with the greatest threat.
Because there are bombers behind Iraqi Air Force fighters. They come to bomb the airport!
And seize this opportunity, the Iraqi artillery can finally fire!
"Boom, boom!" The muzzle of the howitzer emitted black smoke. The whole artillery position was shrouded in black smoke. Shells flew to the British air force base opposite.
The shells were blown into the lawn and the soil was flying. However, it was almost like deliberately releasing water. The first round of shelling by the Iraqi army did not hit the apron at all. Only one hit the runway and just scraped the edge!
"Take off, continue to take off!" General smart kept issuing orders. The fighters that took off in the early stage went to intercept the Iraqi air force, and then continued to take off to bomb the artillery positions over there!
Today is destined to be a very difficult day.
The intrepid British pilot continued to take off forcibly under fire.
Just then, smart saw an adjutant and hurried to him: "general, general, our reinforcements have arrived!"
Raise your binoculars. Smart looks at a Douglas DC-2 transport plane, which is forced to land on the runway under the heavy artillery fire of the Iraqi army. The pilot is good!
"Go and have a look!" Smart was also very excited. He jumped into his jeep and headed for the runway of the airport.
On the runway, the forced landing transport plane has begun to slide to the apron. The transport plane from India took off in the early morning. After several hours of flight, the pilot was extremely tired. However, he was still waving his arm and instructing the soldiers who came to carry weapons.
"The shell is in the back. Unload it from the back first!" He shouted.
So, a soldier, carrying a heavy box of shells, carried the shells down.
"Come on, come on, come on, carry it to the canteen!" A British officer shouted loudly. He was very excited when he looked at the shells.
The officers' canteen of the base is also a tense scene at this time. The soldiers are operating the guns in front.
The 18 pound field gun was the main cannon of Britain during World War I, but after World War I, it was completely out of date and replaced by the 25 pound field gun, so it was eliminated.
Now, in front of the canteen here, there are more than a dozen cannons, at least for decoration, which has no practical significance.
Now, these cannons are about to glow the second spring of their lives!
Last night, because there was no heavy firepower, the officers in the base immediately noticed these old-fashioned cannons. After inspection, they found that although they had been exposed to the wind and sun for many years, these field cannons were still intact. Therefore, they urgently contacted the rear and mobilized a number of cannons!
"Strong charge, let's give some colors to the Iraqi artillery!" Shouted the British officer, who quickly measured the firing data and gave instructions to the Gunners.
"Boom, boom, boom!" Soon, these wooden one man high cannon wheels and short field guns sent out a roar.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
