The Crusader tank is the most "advanced" tank developed and produced by the British mainland before its fall. The biggest advantage of this cruise tank is its high maneuverability, its acceleration and highest cruise capabilities make German tanks far beyond the reach.

As Britain entered Germany's arms, this tank had stopped production. The British tank industry was accepted by Germany to produce the German Black Panther 3 tanks, and those in stock must also be effectively utilized.

In this way, when the Iraqi mechanized brigade suffered great losses when attacking its own British air base, Germany generously exported a batch of new tanks to Iraq, which is this crusader tank!

Compared with the German Black Panther 3, the Crusader tank is already very outdated. However, compared with the previous Iraqi CV33 and Renault ft17, this tank is simply a shotgun replacement.

Its biggest feature is that it weighs lightly, with only 20 tons. At the same time, the engine's horsepower is as high as 340 horsepower, which allows the tank to have sufficient maneuverability to soar in the mountains.

So, it took only a few hours to set off from northeast Iraq to reach Tabriz, the first Iraqi army to enter Tabriz. Behind him, there were infantrymen from the Third Division, who also set out before dawn in cars.

Now, Hemi Said, the commander of the Mechanized Brigade, looked at the government building in front of him and felt excited. Their mission was completed so easily. The Soviets were indeed like shit. Thinking of the last time they were abused by the British Air Force, Hemi felt that the Soviet army and the British army were indeed not on the same level.

"At the invitation of the Iranian government, the Iraqi army entered the Iranian territory of Tabriz and temporarily helped maintain peace in Tabriz." Just after the Iraqi army successfully occupied Tabriz, the Iraqi government released a radio to the outside world. At the same time, this was also a major decision made by Rashid Ali after taking Iraq's power, and he will become one of the greatest prime ministers in Iraq as a result!

Iraq and Iran have conflicts, which has a profound historical decision. Although the two countries border, they have different races, one is Arab and the other is Persian.

The most important dispute between the two countries is the border of the Arab River.

The Arab River is composed of the confluence of the Euphrates River and the Tigris River. It is about 204 kilometers long. The 102 kilometers downstream near the bay forms the border between Iraq and Persia. The Arab River Basin is rich in oil and is an important oil-producing area between Iraq and Persia.

The Arab River has an important strategic and economic status, which makes Iraq and Persia unwilling to give in to each other in the dispute over the Arab River border. Whether Iraq alone or sharing Arab sovereignty with Iran is the key to the dispute over the Arab River border between the two countries.

Just after Iraq's independence, when the Iraqi king and prime minister visited Iran in 1932, Iran proposed to delineate the Arab River border according to the center line of the main channel. After it was rejected, the border clashed. At the end of 1934, the two sides appealed the dispute to the International Alliance.

As a result, in 1935, Italy's invasion of Ethiopia shocked the entire Gulf region, prompting Iraq and Persia to eliminate differences and jointly deal with foreign threats. In 1936, Iraq and Iran withdrew their respective appeals and resumed direct negotiations.

In 1937, the Iranian-Iran signed the Tehran Treaty, reaffirming that the 1913 Istanbul Agreement and the 1914 boundary survey committee memorandum were the basis for demarcating the border between Iran and Iran, and stipulated that except for the near Abadan, the rest of the Arab border is still defined in accordance with the 1913 Istanbul Agreement.

In later generations, the outbreak of the Iraqi War was entirely because of the Iraqi strongman Sha Damu's coming to power. With the strengthening of national strength brought about by Iraq's oil interests, Sha Damu took risks.

Now, there are disputes between Iraq and Iran, but it has not yet reached the point of war. The Soviet invasion made Iraq feel like it was cold in its lips.

Once the Soviet Union acquires Azerbaijan and even subverts the Iranian regime, Iraq will never have a good time. Now, when it’s time to do it!

Anyway, Germany is supporting it, so what are you afraid of!

Now, they have easily won the victory in Tabriz, which makes them more confident.

Of course, after this matter, Iran has to express it! It is easy to invite Iraqi troops to come over, but if Iraq retreats, it has to talk about the conditions.

The Iraqi army appeared in Tabriz! They controlled the entire situation in Tabriz. The newly emerged Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan was destroyed less than a week after its establishment!

Except for a few senior officials who slipped away, most of the officials were controlled by the Iraqi army and were waiting for an unknown fate. At the same time, Iraq's joining caused major changes in the situation in the entire Iran.

"We should have expected that the Iraqis would send troops." The Kremlin was deserted, and Khrushchev's words were extremely deep: "The Iraqis cut off the retreat of our army, and the prospects were too bad!"

Even an outsider like Khrushchev can see that the situation of the battle is no longer optimistic.

Although the Soviet Union could provide reinforcements from the Caspian Sea, the last time the artillery regiment of the tank division was annihilated, which shows that it is not safe to land in the Caspian Sea and attack directly. The Iranian cavalry was elusive and would come out of the mountainous areas at any time, causing heavy losses to the Soviet Union. Even well-equipped troops would be annihilated, let alone logistics supplies.

The main channel for the Soviet Union to carry out logistics reinforcements was to transport through land and travel to Azerbaijan. The local guerrillas had already made the logistics troops scratch their heads. Now, with the fall of Tabriz, their logistics have been completely cut off.

"Now, we have to worry about the safety of the more than 60,000 Soviet soldiers who are still fighting in Ghazwin, and they are at risk of being surrounded." Zhukov said with a frown.

As a group of troops were mobilized, the small town of Ghazwin had gathered more than 80,000 Soviet troops! This was more than 80,000 mouths, and the pressure on logistics was greater.

"There are less than 60,000 people." At this moment, Budonnie, who was standing by, said coldly: "I received the latest battle report from Gazwin. After twenty-four hours of fierce fighting, Gazwin's Soviet Red Army killed more than 8,000 people. The front line was the same as before the attack was launched yesterday!"

Everyone shuddered in their hearts and more than 8,000 people were killed!
Chapter completed!
