Chapter 19 Encountering a Cobra
Ali has done this action for many times. The tank turns a corner with the smallest radius to change the direction of the combat, which also plays an important role in actual combat.
But now, this action has become an absolute suicide.
The reason why tanks can walk in the swamp is that the crawlers put the ground in a small amount of pressure, which can be withstand.
But now, one crawler is moving on one side, while the other crawler is turning still, and there is only one: the crawler on this side is trapped in the soil!
Halfway through, Ali felt something was wrong. Based on his experience, he knew that the left side had fallen and the car body had become tilted.
He released the operating lever and wanted the track on the left to move again, which might have been out of this danger.
Unfortunately, it was useless. The 580-horsepower engine was emitting black smoke, and the tracks were rotating weakly in the blank, but the car body was not moving.
Reverse gear!
After falling into it, since you can't move forward, try backwards.
Alibaba hangs in reverse gear, stomps on the accelerator, loosens the clutch, and the tank only moves for a moment and stops again.
Here, tanks are simply inaccessible. The big man who came down from above came up with such an idea. Now, this is the best example!
Ali thought in annoyance that this place is simply insurmountable!
Now, I still want to get the tank out. After a while, I'm afraid the tanks will sink to the bottom.
"Drive over and use our armored vehicle to pull him to see if it's OK?" Zhang Feng said.
The purpose of transferring this tank over is to use tanks to pull it if you get stuck. Now, the other way around, the fourteen-ton tank is trapped, and only a dozen tons of armored vehicles can be towed?
No one dares to guarantee the bill, but now we have to try it anyway. Otherwise, if it gets dark, the tank will have to give up, and this is not a war. It is a very serious responsibility to damage weapons and equipment due to accidents.
In front of Kusai Pavilion, it would be even more inappropriate to see that weapons were damaged due to operational errors. In the future, maybe today's affairs will be compiled into a training outline and written into the operating code. At that time, the 35th Armored Brigade will make a fool of itself.
Zhang Feng didn't have those ideas. The most important thing at the moment is to get the tank back. Now, it has penetrated more than 100 kilometers deep into the swamp. You can't let those unlucky tank soldiers walk back, right?
The armored vehicle drove in front, Zhang Feng jumped out of the car, untied the traction cable at the rear of the armored vehicle, and hung it on the tank. He was very skilled in all the technical movements.
Zhang Feng's behavior has won everyone's favor. His Excellency Kusai does not have the nobleness of the noble people who are arrogant and do not make any moves, but they do everything themselves. With such people around them, they feel very friendly.
Invisibly, Zhang Feng narrowed his distance with them. They felt that this prideless Lord Kusai was very easy to get along with.
Even Ali, who was gray-headed and rat-faced, said: "Old Master Kusai, it's all my fault that I didn't drive the tank well."
"Don't blame yourself. If it weren't for protecting me, you wouldn't have sent the tank to the mud pond for a bath." Zhang Feng said jokingly.
After saying this, Ali blushed even more, and his depression during the day was wiped out. He felt very glad to have such a boss.
"Boom, boom." The armored vehicle was gasping for breath, and the engines of the two tanks drove at full power at the same time. Finally, the tank escaped from the danger just now and came out of the mud pit.
At this time, Zhang Feng, who was standing aside, had already been thrown away by the mud stirred by the tracks.
The engines of the two tanks fell silent again. In the low sound of the engine, Zhang Feng suddenly heard a sound of a propeller passing through the air.
"Hurry, be careful, be concealed, the engine is turned off!" Zhang Feng shouted.
The trouble just now helped a lot. Now, the two cars are covered with mud. From a distance, they blend into the swamp. In addition, the sky is dark, so it is difficult to detect the helicopters in the sky.
If it was widely equipped with infrared detectors in the 21st century, then the two tanks would be invisible at all, and the engine temperature would leak their location. However, now, I am afraid that Iranians have not equipped this kind of thing in full on their planes.
Zhang Feng hid under a low-high withered vine and looked up at the sky.
A gray-painted Iranian AH-1 Cobra armed helicopter appeared in the sky to the west.
With a flat head, two rocket nests hung on the flanks on both sides, this weapon is enough to make two tanks fall into hiding.
Everyone was shocked. From their appearance, they could see that this was an Iranian armed helicopter. What did it fly here for?
Moreover, the plane has been hovering at low altitudes. If you wait for it to get closer and find everything here, you may have to take measures to shoot it down.
The Type 63 armored vehicle and the T-62 tank have anti-aircraft machine guns, which may be used to deal with helicopters.
However, Zhang Feng didn't want to do this. Helicopters are the natural enemy of tanks. If the opponent really discovers it, the only thing he can do is to run as far as possible and stay away from the tank.
The two pilots of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards were flying the helicopter.
After the war began, Iraq's army marched straight into the city and occupied a large swathe of Iran's territory.
After an initial failure, the Iranian army finally reacted. They resisted the Iraqi attack, and now they are plotting a counterattack.
On the southern line, the Iraqis captured the important town of Koramshahr and besieged Abadan. The counterattack on Abadan was being planned. The command center formulated a bold plan: from the Susangild swamp zone in the north, use armored troops to raid this zone, complete the counter-encirclement of the Iraqi army invading Iran, and eliminate the invaders on their own land!
An elite armored division had quietly arrived at Lamin on the other end of the swamp. Now, they were waiting for oil supply and the opportunity for the swamp to dry up.
If you want to break through this swamp and give the enemy a sudden blow, you must make careful plans. Now, the swamp is too muddy, which is not conducive to the maneuver of the chief battle tank. However, as long as you wait for more than ten days of rain, you can boldly penetrate it.
In addition, not all places in swamp areas are muddy, and some highlands are relatively dry. These places require fuel storage in advance.
The scene of the armored forces assault is very spectacular, but the oil consumed is also astronomical. If you pass the swamp directly, then when you leave the swamp, the oil will be exhausted. At that time, what else can you use to capture the position?
Therefore, we must first find a suitable place in the center of the swamp in advance and replenish the tanks with oil. Only in this way can we have the strength to attack, occupy the Susangailde area, and then head south to counter Avas and Horamshahr.
Therefore, several helicopters carrying out reconnaissance missions have been looking for suitable locations in the swamp these days. In order to prevent the Iraqis from being noticed, they conducted reconnaissance near the western edge before sunset.
Clinker and their investigation unfortunately passed by Zhang Feng's convoy.
