Hearing what the other party said, Kashin was very happy: "Yes, our F-20 can completely defeat the Iranian Tomcat in medium-range and short-range combat."

Nonsense, Zhang Feng thought in his heart, this kind of fighter is just a light fighter, but the radar is strong enough, and with the mid-range Sparrow missile, it is capable of fighting the Tomcat. At close range, it can indeed fight the Tomcat For a moment, thanks to the powerful thrust of the F404 engine, its performance is so high that it cannot overwhelm the heavy-duty Tomcat at all.

However, after saying this, Kashin is in a good mood, which is conducive to the next development.

"The Sparrow AIM-7F missile you promised last time, I also hope to ship it together." Zhang Feng said.

"This is absolutely fine." Kashin said, these were originally agreed by the company, so it was not difficult.

"In addition to these, we also need to import more Paveway laser-guided bombs and Maverick air-to-ground missiles, and we hope not to use low-end products." Zhang Feng continued.

These, Kashin frowned a little, who knows, the other party's request is far more than these.

"In addition to these, I also hope to introduce the F-20 F404 engine production line and the fire control radar production line. Some materials that we cannot produce can be ordered from your country. However, we must gradually be able to produce engines on our own production line and the capabilities of the fire control radar," Zhang Feng continued.

"No, these are impossible." Kashin said a few NOs, and then said: "This fighter plane production line in your country can't find enough skilled workers, let alone the more sophisticated engine. And the fire control radar, that is, we export all the parts, and you are only assembling, and I am afraid that the craftsmanship will not be up to date."

"With the guidance of technical personnel from your country, I think we will train enough workers." Zhang Feng said: "I hope you will convey these conditions to your company as soon as possible."

In fact, Zhang Feng is asking for a lot of money to export the production line of engines and fire control radars. For the United States, this is almost absolutely impossible.However, the actions of the United States this time are too irritating, so Zhang Feng simply opened his mouth. Anyway, the actions of the Americans this time are very inappropriate, and there are many opportunities to take advantage of. Even if the negotiation fails in the end, he has no loss.

And, at the right time, Zhang Feng added some spice to the deal between the Americans and the Iranians.

After seeing off Kashin who was shaking his head all the time, Zhang Feng walked into the combat command hall of the military region again. Here, the main high-level commanders of the military region have already arrived, and they are studying the latest battle situation.

In fact, the South is also paying attention to this operation of the Northern Military Region, because the entire Iran-Iraq War is an overall situation.

"Now, the bridge has been bombed, and the retreat of our tens of thousands of troops has been cut off." Fath said: "If the command is not proper, I am afraid it will be suspended. God bless, I hope they can escape safely."

"Now they can't retreat at all. Although the back road has been cut off, they still have sufficient supplies and can take Bakhtaran. Now is the right opportunity!" Yizart said.

"Yes!" Zhang Feng just heard what Izzat said, and said as he walked in: "The trapped beast is still fighting, as long as you cheer up the army whose retreat has been cut off, their fighting power will explode even more violently. In Bakhtaran, there is a good place to spend the winter. There is no way out for retreat. We have already lost some soldiers and consumed a lot of logistics materials. We must not let this northward movement return without success, or even become a Rout!"

"I suggest that we immediately report our thoughts to His Excellency the President," Zhang Feng said.

Unexpectedly, Izzart shook his head: "Qusay, we can't do this. In the army, this is a very wrong approach."

As soon as Zhang Feng heard it, he understood. These people in the southern military region saw the key point, how could the commanders in the northern military region not know?However, the Southern Military Region can only watch, but not talk about it. If it is said, it is exceeding its authority.

Dad has such a firm grasp on the army, how could he tolerate an irrelevant person pointing fingers?The old man, who was already very suspicious, might have doubts about the Southern Military Region, and if the final result proves that these people are correct, he would be killed instead.

"I heard that His Excellency the President has ordered the Medina Division to retreat." A staff officer said.

Medina division retreat?Everyone had an ominous premonition that the situation that the southern military region had won with great difficulty, and the confidence built up among the people of the whole country, would be ruined in the north?

Chapter 352 Unconditional Execution of Orders

When the order was passed to West Islamabad, Lieutenant General Hazraj, the commander-in-chief before the war, was a little embarrassed.

Now, the troops are able to advance and achieve such a great record, which has a lot to do with the tenacious combat of the Medina Division. Now, the Medina Division is the vanguard when attacking Bakhtaran, but now, they come from the headquarters of the military region The direct order is to let this army go to attack Callander.

Where is Callander?It was a rugged mountain road, and it was very difficult to pass the T-72 tanks of the Medina Division. If there were attacks by Iranian guerrillas, it would be even more troublesome.

Now, there is already a valley in front of us. If we push forward and hit Bakhtaran, we can advance and attack, retreat and defend, which is very beneficial to our side. Who issued this order?

Although Lieutenant General Hazraj is dissatisfied, it is the bounden duty of a soldier to execute orders. The Iraqi army is not like the US military. Field commanders have great decision-making power. If he disobeys orders, even if he wins, he will be considered Purged for disloyalty.

While contemplating, suddenly, there was a violent explosion outside the small city.

what happened?Haven't the remaining Iranian soldiers here been cleared away?

Soon, he received the news: Outside the city, several Iranian death squads touched their own positions. Fortunately, they set up some minefields. The Iranians stepped on the minefields and retreated!

Iranians, up again?Lieutenant General Hazraj felt a little unbelievable, and at the same time, he also sensed the danger. If the Iranians always carry out this attack, then their attack speed will be greatly delayed.

"Add more sentries to prevent such incidents from happening again," Lieutenant General Hazraj said.

"Report," a loud voice came from outside. It was Maliki, the commander of the Medina division.

"Come in," said Hazraj.

"Report to the commander-in-chief, our [-]st Armored Division is the bravest and best at fighting. Let us take the task of attacking Bakhtaran this time to our [-]st Armored Division! Our current retreat has been cut off, and we only have to take down Bakhtaran Lan can resolve this crisis," Maliki said.

The organization of the Medina Division is the First Armored Division, which shows how much attention this is a unit.

The entire armored division has been charging forward all the way. Although they dealt with stragglers and rogues, they have developed a kind of arrogance that only ace troops can have. Therefore, if they want to take the task of the final attack, that is the first time. The most difficult combat operation.

Hazraj looked at him. Maliki was born in Tikrit and was the most trusted person around the president, so he was put in the position of commander of the [-]st Armored Division. He said, "The superior has issued a combat order."

Maliki immediately stood at attention, listening to what he was most looking forward to below.

"The 15st Armored Division immediately marched northward, occupied Karland, and took Sarpol Puhab. No.40 Armored Division, No.49 Seventh, 61th Mechanized Infantry Division, Three, and [-]st Infantry Division, marched eastward , take Bakhtaran!"

When Maliki heard this, his expression turned ugly. Callander, Sarpole Puha, didn't they just go back?Sarpolepuha is a border town next to Iraq, what are you doing there?

"Report, the tasks of our division can be completed with an ordinary infantry division. I request to exchange tasks." Maliki said.

"This is an order from the superior and must be obeyed!" Hazraj said.

Maliki's mind was full of dissatisfaction: "Then I will ask my superiors!" After saying that, he was about to run out.

"Come back to me!" Hazraj said, "We are the Iraqi army, an army loyal to President Saddam Hussein. Now that we have issued a mission, we must strictly implement it. Do you need me to teach you this order? , it was ordered by the President himself!"

Soldiers, it is their duty to obey orders!

Maliki is not a fool. After thinking about it for a while, he understood that his head had already been lowered.

He would rather lead an ordinary armored division than the power that the president regards as the most precious and will not give up.The army is for fighting!

"This road is not easy to walk, you must be careful." Hazraj said: "Especially the Iranians who will appear at any time, we are not familiar with this place."

"Yes." Maliki was very depressed. Although he did not agree with this order, he must obey it unconditionally.

Suddenly, a sharp police siren sounded in the small town.

Air raid!The Iranians acted so fast!

After the Iranians regained the fighting power of the mighty Tomcat, tit for tat began immediately.

Although Iraq has been bombing Bakhtaran, the Iraqi Air Force has always taken the high-altitude route, entering from high altitude, bombing at low altitude, and returning at high altitude.

Therefore, the bombing of Iraq can almost be said to be blatant.

However, the Iranians are different.

The flying skills of the Iranians are very good, and, as if everyone is not afraid of death, starting from the air force base in Tehran, the F-4 fighter plane, which is full of bombs and has become poor in control, was flown to a faraway place. The ground is only about 100 meters low. In such a complicated geographical environment, there is no warning time at all for flying at this altitude.

After arriving here, the two Tomcat fighter planes in the formation will quickly climb up to guard the airspace here, while the fighter planes behind them will start bombing unscrupulously.
