Chapter 608： 11th Armoured Cavalry Regiment

The Americans think they can open up a second battlefield and directly attack the key point of Iraq from the north. This move looks very beautiful on the surface, but in fact, there are also many hidden dangers.

If attacking from the direction of Saudi Arabia, there will be deserts everywhere, which will facilitate the deployment of troops and facilitate the maneuvering of reloaded troops. However, in the mountainous areas in the north, the terrain is very complicated. If the Americans want to attack Baghdad, reloading troops is necessary, and their Supply and transportation is the first big problem!

That's why the Americans are mixed up with the Kurds. I just don't know how much pressure the Americans are under. Because the largest part of the entire Kurdish nation is in Turkey! The Kurds in Turkey account for 40% of the entire Kurds!

Turkey's attitude towards Kurds has always been quite tough. The president of Turkey has said, Kurds? There are no Kurds in Turkey, only mountain Turks! They regard the Kurds as uncivilized mountain people, and they try to assimilate them by erasing all their historical civilizations.

And now? Americans support the Kurds in Iraq, how will the Turks react? Wouldn't they want to see the Kurds within their borders see their compatriots making significant strides on the road to independence, and the Kurds in Turkey getting into action?

Reagan is insane, agreeing with such a bad idea from his think tanks! In fact, the most suitable thing for them is to concentrate all their forces and fight the Iraqi army decisively in Saudi Arabia.

Now, Americans actually go to Turkey! With Andre's personality, it would be too abnormal to not add to the turkey!

…………

South of Mosul, Qayara.

The wide Tigris River flows right next to it. This highway built along the river is the traffic artery between the north and the south of Iraq. At the same time, a railway that is almost parallel to the highway also plays an important role in transportation.

Although the country is in turmoil, Iraq's economy is not bad because of its rich oil resources. It is only in the early 1980s. Most families in Iraq have cars and TVs, which have become necessities of life for Iraqi residents. .

And now, on this highway, it is crowded with all kinds of cars, the cars are full of luggage, and some even have a lot of straps on the roof. These cars are crowding the entire highway, All the cars are moving south.

Americans are calling in! The Kurds have rebelled! The Arabs living here had to migrate south to avoid Kurdish reprisals.

No matter what kind of war, the victims are always ordinary people!

And just behind these crowded vehicles, at a dozen highways, an army was rushing fast.

They are all heavy troops, the tank engines are rumbling, the barrels are high, and the infantry fighting vehicles behind them are also majestic.

The pride of the U.S. 5th Army, the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, they were originally stationed in Fulda, France. After receiving the order from their superiors, they completed combat preparations in three days. Then, they maneuvered to Turkey, and then came to Iraq from Turkey !

Their task is to rush to Baghdad and completely solve the source of evil in the Middle East!

The 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment of the United States is an old-fashioned force with a history of nearly a hundred years! Its earliest designation was the 11th U.S. Cavalry Regiment, which was established in 1902 as part of the U.S. 2nd Cavalry Division. After its establishment, it participated in the Spanish-American War on the spot and formed a Mexican expedition. After the outbreak of World War II, the 11th Cavalry Regiment was changed to the Panzer Regiment and participated in the battles of the latter part of World War II, such as the Battle of the Ardennes-Rhineland, the Battle of Alsace and the liberation of Central Europe.

During the Cold War, the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment was stationed in Germany and became a fully mechanized unit equipped with tanks by replacing a large number of M113 armored vehicles, M114 armored vehicles and M48 Patton main battle tanks. After that, he participated in the Vietnam War. In the Vietnam War, the United States experienced an unprecedented defeat, but this has nothing to do with the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment, they are just like plug-ins, and they are invincible wherever they go. During the entire Vietnam War, the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment killed more than 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers and lost 300 soldiers.

After that, they returned to Europe to be stationed until now.

Re-entering the battlefield, they must continue their past victories and win glory for the flag!

Therefore, after accepting the task, the head of the armored cavalry regiment analyzed the map and decided to take the easiest way: take the road!

Taking the road is the fastest solution, but it is very risky to take the road without mastering the air dominance! This kind of long snake formation is very vulnerable to air strikes!

However, Howard, the head of the armored cavalry regiment, was not afraid. The characteristics of this battle are suddenness and speed! If you take the path guided by the Kurdish guide, many places have to be built with sappers before you can drive on the tank! In this case, it takes half a month to go to Baghdad! He can't wait that long! Now, take a ready-made road passenger trip and you can rush to Baghdad in a day! In Baghdad now, the troops are empty, and a cavalry regiment of one's own side can take it down!

Walking in the forefront was the 1st Armored Battalion, nicknamed the Iron Horse, and the battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Cheno, sat on his tank, leaned out half of his body, and looked into the distance with his binoculars.

The road ahead is blocked! Countless Iraqi refugees blocked the road, which would seriously affect the speed of their own march!

"Order to rush! Crash these vehicles off the road!" Lieutenant Colonel Chernow shouted over the radio.

In war, human nature is the most easily distorted. If you can win the war, you must not talk about benevolence and morality! These vehicles are blocking your own progress, then push them all down!

"Understood." On the front tank, the tank operator retracted his head into the car body, stepped on the accelerator, the turbo engine at the rear was roaring, and the body of the M1 tank had hit the front one. Pickup!

The pickup was pushed forward and slammed into an off-road vehicle in front. The people in the car were screaming, and the American soldier continued to step on the accelerator, the crawler track, and forcibly rolled up!

When the M1 tank drives past, these vehicles become like pieces of paper.

The civilians in the vehicles ahead collapsed, jumping out of their cars and running to both sides of the road.

"Da da, da da da." At this moment, the machine gun on the American tank opened fire! Bullets flew over the scalps of fleeing civilians, and a woman sat on the ground, crying in terror. (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
