Chapter 281: Pre-War Preparations

Fallujah, an important gateway to the southwest of Iraq, has been a frequent battle zone between Iraq and the Islamic State for several years.

The U.S. fighter planes are also around the city, focusing on cooperating with the Iraqi government forces to fight against ISIS soldiers.

But for a long time, the scale of such fighting has not been very large, and Fallujah has always been under the strict control of Iraqi government forces.

The armed forces of the Islamic State also seem to be stragglers, with a maximum of a dozen people at a time, and sometimes even a pickup truck plus a few soldiers.

It is more just to harass the Iraqi government. One of the two ace armored divisions of the Iraqi government is stationed here in Fallujah.

With more than 400 tanks and armored vehicles of various types, it is also the face of the Iraqi government forces.

The Iraqi government forces have never planned to transfer away from this armored division, because it is very close to Baghdad, and the Islamic State has been coveting the important town of Fallujah for a long time.

Without the deterrence of the trump card division, I am afraid that the Islamic State will immediately attack Fallujah on a large scale, instead of continuing to conduct tentative attacks like it is now.

It's just that the war in Samarra was not going well, and the Islamic State couldn't do anything about it.

There are deserts on both sides, and it is impossible to march on a large scale. Samarra is the only passage to Baghdad in the west.

The rest is the southwest direction of Fallujah. The battle in Samarra is not going well, and the armed forces of the Islamic State can't help but set their sights on Fallujah.

Recently, this kind of tentative attack has intensified, and even hundreds of armed forces suddenly attacked the station of an armored company on the outskirts of Fallujah.

Destroyed several armored divisions of the Iraqi government army. If it weren't for the quick support of the U.S. Air Force fighter planes, the armored company might be in danger of being destroyed.

At the same time, this is also a very obvious signal. For this reason, the US intelligence agency also kindly notified its own Iraqi government forces in Fallujah, hoping that the Iraqi government forces can respond quickly.

However, it is not known whether it is because nearly 20,000 troops were dragged in Samarra or for other reasons. Iraqi government forces have not made any plans to increase troops in Fallujah.

Even the troops gathered in Samarra were withdrawn one after another.

For the Iraqi government, placing a huge army in Samarra is really a waste of military expenditure.

The daily supply alone makes many people feel distressed.

And Samarra has been given to the Future Technology Group, and they also believe that the Future Technology Group, which has put on an extremely powerful posture, will definitely have a way to successfully occupy Samarra.

Those retreating Iraqi government forces. But they did not rest directly in Baghdad and prepare to support Fallujah. Instead it retreated almost behind Baghdad.

Some of the troops have also withdrawn to their original station.

At present, the situation of the battle on both sides is very strange. The Marin Town troops, which were originally only cooperating in the battle, have become the main force in the battle in Samarra.

The Islamic State forces were completely forced out of Samarra by artillery fire.

In order to prevent the Islamic State troops from returning to Samarra in a short time, the heavy artillery group of the 1st Brigade of the Red Police Corps continued to shell Samarra every day.

Many international military observers. All kinds of guesses were made one after another. In short, anything could happen in the next battle.

But everyone also knows that the armed forces in Marin Town have now become an important weather vane for this battle.

All changes in the battle situation depend almost entirely on the next move of the troops in Marin Town.

At the same time, it is not a secret to all countries about the strength of Marin Town's armed forces in Samarra.

This month's time. With the addition of four battalions of troops, in the direction of Samarra, the armed forces of Marin Town have more than 5,000 direct combat troops.

If you add the strength of the artillery group, the artillery group with 500 heavy guns needs at least 5,000 troops to operate. So far, 10,000 troops have been displayed in front of the whole world.

If the 2,000 security soldiers of the future security company are added, the Red Police Corps has reached the size of 12,000 in this world.

This is already a decisive armed force in Iraq. After all, apart from the three-party competition, the rest of the armed forces are all small-scale.

However, Cai Ruichen was not in a hurry to launch an attack. In order to face Samarra with the strongest posture, he is constantly accumulating strength.

That's why he wasted shells like this, letting the artillery group evaporate the waste heat a little bit every day.

Originally, Cai Ruichen decided to take action when the army strength reached 10,000, to settle the present world first, and then focus on the wasteland.

But with the advent of the multipurpose infantry fighting vehicle, he changed his plans.

To deal with the armed forces of the Islamic State, since the emergence of multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles, it is necessary to equip as much as possible.

Almost eight multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles per day can strengthen the combat capability of a battalion-level unit in four or five days.

In order to adapt to the main combat plan in the next stage, the multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles built also fully take into account the application of the battlefield.

The main focus is on adding assault gun modules, sniper modules, and Gait cannon modules.

And around this batch of armored vehicles, fence defense modules will also be installed. This kind of fence can directly offset the explosive power of incoming rocket launchers outside the defense of the armored vehicles themselves.

Increase the service life of multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles on the battlefield. After all, even if it can defend against rocket launchers, if there are too many rocket launchers, it is also very threatening to multi-functional infantry fighting vehicles.

The multifunctional infantry fighting vehicle was drawn in the draw seventeen days ago, and the base has produced 120 multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles so far.

At present, three battalions have been equipped with this tank.

There are only two months left before the base rewards the Iraqi base vehicle requirements.

The war situation in Samarra was much better than expected, and the Iraqi government forces withdrew voluntarily because of the tasteless food.

This also allowed the battle in Samarra to end early.

Cai Ruichen, who has been waiting for a month, is also preparing to fully occupy Samarra.

However, if you want a comprehensive strategy for Samarra, you must first defeat the Islamic State forces that are still reluctant to part with Samarra.

Otherwise, the more than 10,000 Islamic State troops will not give up Samarra easily.

Although they dare not approach because of the threat of artillery, if their own troops go in, the power of the artillery will not be able to be exerted. I believe that the Islamic State is also waiting for this opportunity. To be continued.
