One thing, the Soviets still guessed wrong. It was not the German tank force, but the independent mechanized brigade of Iran!

The morale of Reza Khan's administration and the relationship between Iran and Germany are quite friendly. Most of the weapons in the Iranian army are purchased from Germany. For example, the main combat equipment of the mechanized brigade is the semi tracked sdkfz251 armored transport vehicle. In mountainous areas, this semi legged armored vehicle has high speed and low fuel consumption. It has been equipped with the Iranian army for several years, Well received.

At the same time, last year, they also obtained more than 20 Panther 2 tanks from Germany. This weapon with a weight of 20 tons and equipped with 50 mm tank guns is also very advanced in this era.

For Germany, it is eliminated because Germany's military development is too powerful. After all, in history, when the Germans launched a war, they just made tanks 1 and 2.

These Panther 2 tanks, painted with new colors by the Iranian army, have become their main force. Now, the only mechanized brigade in Iran is attacking the Soviet artillery!

The Panther 2 tanks in front are rumbling. The engines of these tanks have reached their service life. When they are exported to Iran, they are equipped with new engines. Now, at the best time, the tank engines rumble and the high-pressure oil pump rattles, constantly sending diesel oil into the cylinder and pushing the piston, Output a steady stream of power.

Tanks galloped on the field. They came from Tehran. Mahmoud, the brigade commander of the mechanized brigade, sat on one of the Panther 3 tanks and charged with the whole army.

"Go! Kill these Soviet devils! "

"Boom, boom!" Just then, the Soviet artillery opposite opened fire!

The shooting of 152 mm howitzer is very spectacular, even if it is armor piercing projectile!

The gun barrel was very thick. At the muzzle, a huge fireball came out with a black smoke. When the fireball appeared, several tons of gun bodies were also retreating involuntarily.

The sound of gunfire was so loud that people's ears were buzzing! If it happens to be hit by the air flow from the muzzle, it will even rupture the eardrum of the ear!

Blunt headed armor piercing bullet, flew out of the muzzle and flew towards the opposite Panther 2 tank!

The tank troops on the opposite side show no sign of stopping. They are still rushing towards this side!

Although tanks also have main guns, they are only 50mm caliber. At this time, they can't give full play to their advantages. On the contrary, they will delay their progress because of firing!

Artillery has always been firing from behind the position. They are definitely not fighting bayonets on the front line. Artillery Forces, also known as technical forces, do not have specially strengthened individual combat skills.

Therefore, once they are approached by infantry, they will be dead!

At this time, behind the Panther 2 tank and in the half tracked infantry combat vehicles, the Iranian soldiers are also ready. In their hands, they are holding mp36 submachine guns with 75 rounds of drums. As long as the armored vehicle sends them to the battlefield, the submachine guns in their hands can give the enemy the most violent blow!

The Soviet artillery fire and the first round of Volley filled their artillery positions with smoke. When the smoke dispersed, major Ivan was dismayed to find that the hit rate was zero and none of them hit!

"Come closer and fire again at a distance of one kilometer!" Cried major Ivan.

The range of the howitzer is very long. When they launch the howitzer, they can hit ten kilometers away. Therefore, the artillery just fired with their hands and feet. It seems that there is no problem. However, they launch armor piercing shells and need to shoot accurately. At this time, the distance is too far and the hit rate is too poor. They must hit directly!

The Gunners continued to load, and the artillery squad leader was extremely nervous to indicate the exact firing data for his own artillery. Compared with the special anti tank gun, it lacked an effective direct pointing device.

"Boom, boom!" Finally, the second round of artillery fire began to salvo at a distance of one kilometer.

This time, the opposite armored force was not so lucky. An armor piercing bullet accurately hit the turret armor of a panther 2 tank. Under the huge impact, the armor was like paper paste, quickly sunken back, and then turned into a blown air ball.

"Boom!" The turret exploded, and the kinetic energy brought by the impact was very terrible. What's more, under the severe impact, the ammunition in it exploded horribly.

In the explosion, the turret was torn and a fire broke out inside.

The driver and radio man in front struggled to climb out, while several people in the turret behind were all killed!

If you want to fight, there will be blood and sacrifice, which is inevitable!

The Iranian army is not afraid, they are still moving forward!

"Be careful not to move forward in a straight line and maneuver!" Brigadier Ahmed shouted on the radio, "God bless us, we will win!"

Panther 2 tank no longer walks in a straight line. The driver in front is running wildly, adjusting the direction from time to time.

Now, the two sides are comparing who is more tenacious and who is faster!

If the Soviets move faster and kill those tanks and armored vehicles within 100 meters of the tank force, they will win. If the Iranians rush faster and reach 100 meters, with submachine guns in their hands, they can kill all the Soviet artillery!

The current situation is favorable to the Soviets, because as the distance approaches, their shooting accuracy will be higher, and their artillery fire will completely tear each other's tanks. Don't worry about the problem of being unable to penetrate!

Yakov returned to his company and commanded his six howitzers to fire. His first hit was the result of a gun he personally commanded!

"Keep firing, come on!" Yakov shouted. At this time, he was completely attracted by the attack of the Iranians in front, and there was no time to take into account other directions.

Come on, move fast!

La prize, the loader, quickly ran back to the truck and continued to carry heavy shells. The 152 mm shells were sub packed. The warhead and propellant were separated. His body was strong and carried both boxes to his shoulder at once.

He stood up straight and wanted to send the ammunition to the front of the howitzer. However, when he looked up, the light from the corner of his eyes aimed at the back of his own side. He was surprised.

"Cavalry, Iranian cavalry!"
