Chapter 432 Anti-tank mines

"Teacher Commander, the Iraqis stopped in front of them." A soldier ran over and reported quietly to Karim.

At this time, the people who could fight in their division were all ambushed on the side of the railway line. With the obstruction of the railway subgrade, it was considered a natural position. Weeds were covered with around them, which could be integrated with the wilderness behind them.

Infantry cannot fight against tanks, so they buried nearly a hundred landmines in front of the position last night. This was their most effective method. What remains were more than 100 rocket launchers gathered by their entire division and earth-made mooring bottles.

Anti-tank mines are special mines used to destroy or destroy armored vehicles such as tanks, armored vehicles and self-propelled artillery. Anti-tank mines are composed of tnt**, fuses, and fire devices. Compared with anti-infantry mines, anti-tank mines usually have more **** loading, and fuses can only be triggered by force greater than 180 kilograms to trigger an explosion.

The use of anti-tank mines can prevent and actively attack the movement of enemy tank units, cut off enemy tank formations and paralyze enemy tank clusters. It is an effective combat weapon to increase the firepower and stabilise the defense situation of one's own side.

Generally, tanks have the thickest front armor, followed by side armor, slightly thinner at the rear, and the thinnest at the top and bottom. Therefore, using anti-tank mines for attack is a very effective way.

Anti-tank mines are powerful weapons for weak sides to deal with strong sides.

However, one of the disadvantages of this weapon is passive defense, which means that it must be built on the opponent's necessary path to be valuable.

The Iraqi army must not be allowed to advance again, they must be blocked! Because there was no order to retreat, because Karim's love for the great leader made him full of fighting spirit.

The rest of the entire division were inspired by the division commander personally going to the front line. They also mustered up the courage again, even if they threw the moor bottle, they had to stop the other party from moving forward!

Karim's intention was to use landmines first to cause chaos to the Iraqi armored forces while killing large numbers of Iraqi armored troops. Then, when the opponent was in chaos, use a rocket launcher to attack. If it doesn't work, use a moor bottle.

However, the Iraqi army was just a few kilometers in front of their minefield and stopped advancing. This made them very worried. They really wanted to step forward and pull the Iraqi army into the minefield to blow up a few of them.

"Wait a little longer," Karim said.

Karim didn't know that he had lost the most favorable fighter. An armored force that was replenishing logistics was the most vulnerable. If his position moved forward a few kilometers, then the armored force that had almost exhausted fuel would definitely be even more panicked if it was attacked again.

The t72 tank is filling up fuel quickly. As a multi-fuel engine, the t72 tank's engine can be added with three fuels: diesel, kerosene and gasoline, and all can work normally. In the most extreme cases, the three fuels can be mixed and added, and even heavy oil for ships can be used. This can maximize the convenience of logistics supply.

Of course, diesel is the most suitable one.

As fuel is continuously added and injected into the tank, the t72 tank begins to regain its vitality.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from the distant sky.

The regiment commander looked up and saw that there were several Mi24 gunship helicopters.

At this time, a call from the sky also came from his command tank: "Lion, lion, the sky eagle is coming to support, the sky eagle is coming to support."

"Received, please search the area ahead for us, we are about to move forward." said the leader.

These armed helicopters flew from the armed helicopter units in the Port of Khomeini. According to the requirements of the superiors, when the armored forces are advancing, there are helicopters above to search for the battlefield ahead, and at the same time, to provide fire assistance in times of crisis.

Nowadays, the entire Kuzstan Province is dominated by Iraq, so armed helicopters will not be threatened at all and can fly with confidence.

This made the regiment commander very unhappy. In their hearts, he was the most important and combat-effective armored soldier among all Iraqi troops! But now, they are like chickens protected by old hens, and they don’t need protection at all!

The above command is like this. When we get to the bottom, the helicopters that can be mobilized are a few after all. Sometimes, they also set out on their own, just like just now, but now they have to deal with those helicopters again.

After the regiment commander contacted the helicopter in the sky, he still disagreed, but then he knew that the important role of the helicopter was.

Hearing the rumbling sound in the sky, Karim thought to himself that they were not good. They were ambushed under the roadbed. Although they would not be discovered by the opponent's armored forces, the helicopters in the sky would still easily discover them.

What should I do? Karim knew that the current situation was very bad and he had to make a quick decision.

"Prepare for the fight," Karim said.

If they are discovered by helicopters in the sky, then they only have one way to go: kill the helicopter first, and then fight against the opponent's tanks!

This must be a test of blood and fire, but as believers of great leaders, they are willing to give everything they have at any time.

The huge rotor of Mi24 stirred up the airflow and blew the weeds on the ground. Spring had already arrived. In this Karen River basin, there are only a few fertile soil left in the Middle East, with wild grass growing.

The pilot of the helicopter flew and searched both sides, and he flew very low.

Avas is the capital of Khuzestan Province, and the Port of Khomeini is a large port in the southwest. Therefore, there is a railway line between Avas and Khuzestan Province. This railway line is very busy during normal times, and there is a train almost every few minutes.

However, during the war, the railway line was affected. It was not until Iraq captured the ports of Avas and Khomeini that the train traffic began to recover, but it was much less than before.

When the helicopter flew over the railway line, a train was coming with black smoke. It was a diesel locomotive.

A tongue of fire suddenly burst out in the black smoke.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Iranian troops who were lying in ambush fired a rocket at the armed helicopter that had just flew in.

"At ten o'clock, hurry up, pull up." said the weapon operator in the rear cabin.

When the pilot in front heard that something happened, he immediately raised the total torque and pulled the operating lever, and the helicopter began to pull upwards.

"Boom!" The rocket did not hit the target, exploded in the sky, and the air waves caused the helicopter to bump.

At this time, all the Iranian militants on the ground began to stand up and fired guns into the air.

"A large number of Iranian soldiers were found near the railway line, with an estimated number of thousands of people." The pilot of the helicopter reported to the armored regiment via radio, while starting to leave the fire range of the ground personnel.

Although the armed helicopter has armor protection on the chassis, under such a dense fire-like fire net, the flight altitude is still very low, which is still dangerous.

Moreover, the train next to it is innocent, not an Iranian train, so they cannot launch an attack.

Taking advantage of this time, Mi24 flew away from the opponent's firepower area, and at this time, the trains were all gone.

Looking at the Iranians who were not afraid of death on the ground, the pupils of Mi24's pilot's eyes dilated.

"The rocket is ready to be launched." The pilot said to the weapon operator behind.

"No, rockets will blow up our railway." said the weapon operator.

"That depends on our level." The pilot said: "Fight! That is an inevitable accident."

The shell of Mi24 is painted by a gray eagle. Under the short wings on both sides of the eagle, the multi-tube rocket launching nest began to vent its fury of revenge towards the Iranians on the ground.

Dare to attack me? This is what I gave back to you!

Hearing the call of the helicopter pilot in the radio, the regiment commander was delighted, and the opportunity to make contributions finally came! A few miles away, an Iranian came to him, and his tank troops were ready to go.

"Tank Battalion 1 and 2, attack at full speed!" The regiment commander issued a battle order in the radio.

"Boom, boom." After hearing the regiment commander's order, the tankers below were also very excited. They had just filled up the oil and blew in the wind outside for a while, alleviating the fatigue of driving the tank. Now, they are already a hundred times more energetic.

Defeat the Iranians! They launched tanks and hung on the forward gear.

Although they were excited, they all arranged in attack formations strictly according to their usual training. Because they were dealing with Iranian infantry, the 125mm cannon was loaded with grenades.

However, even grenades were wasted against the infantry of the Iranians. The battalion commanders of the two advancing tank battalions had decided to use machine guns to deal with Iranian soldiers.

Fortunately, their attack formation was a tank at the front end, not a large number of tanks on the front line.

In fact, their tank-intensive charge form is also very unscientific on the battlefields of later generations, and will be killed on a large scale by the mother bullets thrown from the opponent's head.

They were trained by the Soviet army, and this kind of tank troops charged intensively, which was conducive to leveraging their own firepower advantages.

"Boom!" Suddenly, an explosion occurred at the bottom of a tank in front.

The tank hand felt a violent vibration coming from below, and his face turned pale. He knew that he had encountered a landmine.

Fortunately, the weak bottom armor of t72 was not blown up, otherwise the three people inside them would probably be hurt. This made him feel relieved that he encountered not anti-bottom armor mines, but mines that specialize in blowing tracks.

Then, with a clamor on the right side of the tank, he stopped moving, and he immediately stopped the tank.

The track of the t72 is a single-pin track plate connected with a track pin. After the explosion just now, the track pin was blown off and the tank lost its power to walk.

"Report, we encountered anti-tank mines." The commander reported immediately. (To be continued...)
