"Commander, Zhao Long is here to report."

The time to enjoy is always short. After drinking the potion brought by the butler, Zhao Long walked in before enjoying Natasha's massage skills for too long.

Cai Ruichen sat up straight, and said to Zhao Long, "Sit down, let's watch the battle in Samara together."

"Yes."

Zhao Long nodded, came to the sofa and sat down.

Opposite the sofa in the hall, the Samarra battlefield projected by the base filled the entire hall, making the three of them appear on the Samarra battlefield in an instant.

After a month of war, Samarra can no longer see the shadow of the once big city, and there are ruins everywhere.

In the ruins of the city, there is no complete door and window, and almost no complete street.

The buildings that can still stand are also dilapidated and crumbling.

It looked more like a huge ruin.

This is a rare brutal battle in Iraq for many years. Both the Iraqi government and the Islamic State have invested heavily.

Every day there are uninterrupted explosions and attacks, blowing up the already incomplete city into ruins.

I am afraid that Berlin at the end of World War II was also more complete than this city.

However, even if it is a ruin, the sound of fighting is everywhere in this city.

Especially in the Samarra Industrial Zone and the location of the railway station, it is the focus of firefights.

Most of the Samarra industrial area is an oil refinery, and there are several oil fields that are being exploited nearby.

The railway station is at the edge of Samarra, and the snatching of two key locations is the core of this war.

Now, these two places have been occupied by Islamic State forces, and the Iraqi government forces that originally controlled Samarra have become the attacking party.

Because it is impossible for the Iraqi government to allow Samarra to be occupied by the Islamic State, it has to send reinforcements to Samarra as much as possible.

However, in a month's time, nearly five divisions of Iraqi government troops were invested. He was almost kicked out of Samarra.

If it weren't for the arrival of follow-up reinforcements. I'm afraid the war is almost over.

However, the counterattacking Iraqi government forces are also very crazy, constantly competing with the Islamic State for control of the train station and industrial area.

As for the battle in the city. It didn't stop at all, and there were scattered firefights here and there.

Cai Ruichen who is far away in Marin Town. I also pay attention to this battle from time to time, and even the Samarra battle in the past month has been recorded by the base.

At any time, he can look at the battle scenes at any time and place in the past month. It's like a month-long panoramic movie.

However, Cai Ruichen has no interest in looking back at the past. Even after watching such battles too much, they don't have much interest in watching the real-time battle situation.

As a material, it may wait for the future technology group to shoot war movies in the future. It can also be used.

After all, no matter how real a movie is shot, it is definitely not as real as a real war scene.

compared to the initial battle. In Samarra, which has been down for a month, the gunfire has also weakened a lot.

Although the Iraqi government forces are gathering troops to seize train stations and industrial areas every day, the scale is being reduced every day.

Battles within the city. The intensity also started to decrease.

After all, after a month-long battle, the soldiers on both sides were already exhausted.

However, the artillery fire has not weakened much, because NATO, Russia and the Iranian air force are carrying out air strikes against the Islamic State every day.

As a result, the Islamic State's not many long-range artillery were all destroyed.

But even so, with the advantage of artillery fire and the cooperation of tanks, the Iraqi government forces are still at a disadvantage.

This is what makes Cai Ruichen feel very ridiculous.

In his opinion, any army in the world, even if they hold fire sticks, is more powerful than the Iraqi government army.

From the battlefield projected from the augmented reality, what Cai Ruichen saw was a well-trained army fighting against a group of idiots.

The Iraqi government army, which has a comprehensive military advantage, is really a bunch of funny comparisons compared to the soldiers of the Islamic State who can only rely on individual firepower.

In Samarra at this moment, the artillery of the Iraqi government army has continuously shelled the Islamic State armed forces in the railway station and industrial area for an hour.

The violent artillery turned over the ruins of these two battlefields again.

Then several M1A1 main battle tanks began to approach these two battlefields, but there was not even a single Iraqi soldier in sight around the tanks.

Only in the distance, I saw several armored vehicles following far away, and there were some Humvees behind.

But when the main battle tank was approaching the train station, those ISIS soldiers who avoided the artillery fire stepped out of the bunker one after another, carried weapons and ammunition, and began to prepare for battle.

In front of the train station, there are more than a dozen M1A1s crouching here, and the three attacking M1A1s are approaching the train station alone.

When they came to this open space, they faced a large number of individual rocket launchers and anti-tank missiles.

ISIS soldiers with strict combat rules are all shot to change places.

No one would stay in the same place for more than five seconds, especially those soldiers who used rocket launchers and anti-tank missiles. They would leave immediately without even looking at the results of a shot.

And the three M1A1 main battle tanks did not even release smoke bombs before the infantry coordinated their battles, and approached the train station under heavy artillery fire.

The commander's machine gun and tank gun on the tank seemed flustered in the face of the firepower points appearing everywhere, almost all firing randomly.

Perhaps this should not be ridiculed at the operational level of these Iraqi tankers, because they faced too many enemies.

There are rocket launchers and anti-tank missiles everywhere, and a tank gun and a commander's machine gun can't keep up.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Long, who was sitting next to Cai Ruichen, looked at the three tanks being besieged, shook his head helplessly, and said, "A troop commanded by a group of pigs."

"Don't say that, if the Iraqi government forces can make full use of the performance of these weapons and equipment, we will have no room to play." Cai Ruichen said with a slight smile.

Just as Cai Ruichen finished speaking, two MiG-25 attack aircraft of the Iraqi National Defense Forces flew over the battlefield at ultra-low altitude.

Dropped several aerial bombs in the train station, and then returned quickly under the anti-aircraft machine guns of the Islamic State.

Under the two MiG-25 fighters, there are still some bombs that have not been dropped.

With a cover from the air force, the three M1A1 main battle tanks immediately relaxed.

However, when the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the three M1A1s officially approached the gate of the train station.

More intensive attack fire appeared. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
