Chapter 1441 Bad News One After Another

"We will never retreat, we will fight to the last person!" Suddenly, Prince Pahlavi drew out his saber and stood on the top of the hovercraft's gun emplacement. His voice was extremely loud: "God bless us, we are going to die comrades-in-arms, avenge our once lost country!"

At this time, Pahlavi was like a lion.

Seeing this scene, even Reinhardt admired, yes, as a member of the royal family, Pahlavi is a real warrior.

Pahlavi's actions inspired everyone's morale. They were determined to fight to the death and never retreat!

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound in the distance. Everyone looked up and saw the southern part of their own side. The smoke was rising, black smoke was rolling, and a tank troop was rapidly advancing towards this side.

The air force did not come to support on time, but the ground forces did not let them down!

The ground troops launched their attack in the middle of the night when they landed on the Baku oil field. They broke through the border guards, moved forward quickly, and hurried along the way, and finally arrived at the oil field!

Their rapid advance was almost the same as the German Blitz. They were able to be so fast due to two factors.

The first is the emptiness of the Soviet Union. All the troops that can fight have been mobilized to Armenia. Even if the Soviets know that Iran in the south is ready to move, they are also incapable because of insufficient troops.

Secondly, it is the Panther 2 tank provided by Germany, which has quite good off-road performance and saves fuel at the same time.

The Iranians were cheering, and the Soviet airborne troops were desperate.

The airborne troops can only be lightly armed. It is already good to be equipped with burst weapons such as machine guns and submachine guns. Although the Soviet Union has experimented with airborne tanks, they are also light and several-ton tanks. They cannot compete with Germany at all. Tanks contend.

"Retreat, retreat!" Vlasov shouted, he greeted his subordinates and retreated to the rear. At this time, it was pointless to continue the attack, and their follow-up troops could not be airborne again.

They have failed.

The whole oilfield area, resounded the cheers of the Iranians.

At this time, the sun was just rising, and the rising sun stretched everyone's shadow very long. Standing on the Baku oil field, the Iranians were extremely excited. They finally defeated the hateful Soviet people. Occupied the Baku oil fields!

When the follow-up troops arrive, they will be able to capture the nearby city of Baku and turn it into Iranian territory!

Victory came too soon.

For the Soviets, it was a different mood.

In the Kremlin, Stalin broke out completely: "What is our air force doing? The German bombers drove straight into our hinterland and bombed our oil fields. We didn't even find it?"

"This is a serious dereliction of duty! Commander of the Air Force, immediately remove all positions and ranks, and go to the military court!" The furious Stalin, no one dared to provoke him, they could only show sympathy to their comrades.

During the original purge, various Soviet armies suffered great losses, as did the air force.

In 1931, succeeded Baranov as Air Force Commander Я. И? Alxnes, arrested in 1937 and executed in 1940. His deputy commander B. В? Heripin also disappeared in 1937. Alxnes was succeeded by an insignificant figure named А?Д? Lockdiolov, who in September 1939 gave way to Я. И? Shmushkevich.

The current air force commander is Shmushkevich. He is a veteran of the Soviet Air Force who participated in the Spanish Civil War. Later, he enjoyed a high reputation as the commander of the Far East Air Force and assisted Zhukov in winning the island nation.

Unfortunately, his life is not good.

This time, the Urals-Volga Oilfield suffered a devastating blow. The oilfield facilities, tens of thousands of oilfield workers and prisoners all died, and many people died in the factories near the Urals. According to preliminary statistics, there were more than 100,000 people.

This is a huge number. With so many people dead, the Air Force Commander is destined to take the blame. What awaits him will be the fate of being shot as a scapegoat.

Seeing the Air Force commander being escorted away, everyone else had a sad feeling.

In the past, they took precautions and made measures to develop the Volga-Ural oil field on a large scale, believing that this would prevent the Baku oil field from encountering a crisis, which would lead to their own failure to get enough fuel.

Who knew that the Germans could easily blow up oil fields, and they still did so when they were already established and ready to produce crude oil efficiently!

Germans are horrible!

Bad news, one after the other.

"It is pointless to report that the Iranian ground forces have arrived at the Baku oil field, the size is above the armored division level, and the airborne troops have stopped continuing to airborne."

Baku Oil Field!

Stalin's fist slammed hard on the table. The thick birch tree made the table humming. Blood dripped from his hand, and he felt no pain.

Everyone was stunned.

The Iranian armored division has already arrived at the Baku oil field. It is very difficult to retake this oil field, because the Soviet Union simply cannot raise troops to go to the Caucasus!

To retake the oil fields, at least two tank divisions are needed! Now on the vast plains in front of Moscow, they are racking their brains for a tank company, where is the oil field!

Now, a bigger crisis has come. If they can't retake the oil fields, all their mechanized armies will be stopped due to lack of fuel. Without fuel, they can't resist the German attack at all!

Rely on soldiers to block with their lives?

Even if they wanted to, they couldn't! The German tanks will run over the bodies of their soldiers and continue to rumble over, and they have no ability to stop them!

No one dared to mess with Stalin. Obviously, there was too much bad news this morning. Who wants to get in trouble? Maybe he will be shot by a furious Stalin.

Stalin walked slowly outside the window, looked at the rising sun, and said, "Increase the production of other oil fields, stop unnecessary fuel consumption in all aspects, fully supply the military, and ask the United States for fuel support."

No matter how bad things get, Stalin can make things right. That's the ability of a leader.

The Soviet Union will definitely persevere!

Just then, suddenly, the door outside was knocked open without knocking, and a secretary hurried over with a telegram, shouting loudly, "No, no, the Germans' Central Route Army. Going south, we are advancing towards Kyiv, and our defenders of Kyiv are about to be surrounded!"
