The northern front of Iran, the headquarters of the Russian Caucasus Front Army, moved with the Russian 51st Army. The two tank divisions of the 47th Army served as the vanguard, while the huge forces of the 51st Army wiped out the Iraqi troops that were dispersed by the tank units.
At least, judging from the current situation, the Caucasus Front Army still fought very well in this battle. The 44th, 45th and 46th armies, the 1st and 2nd armies of the Turkish Army fighting in eastern Turkey suffered heavy losses and retreated steadily. The 47th Army and the 51st Army defeated the Iranian Army's 1st Army and 2nd Army in northern Iran. Everything is developing in favor of the Russian army.
"Comrade Commander, the Iranians have been completely defeated by us. We have captured more than 100,000 Iranians. A large number of Iranians are fleeing. According to the information we have obtained, Tabriz will be the place where these Iranians will retreat direction. They are trying to escape there and continue to block us." Chief of Staff Major General Torbukhin smiled.
In this war, the Russian army rarely won. Although they have only defeated the Turks and Iranians now, this is also a rare victory! If Comrade Joseph can be satisfied, then everyone will have great benefits.
Lieutenant General Kozlov nodded: "Let the 6th and 54th tank divisions move towards Tabriz at a faster speed. Before the main force of the Iranians retreats there, get rid of them first. In this case, Iran The North has opened the door, and they will no longer have the strength to prevent us from crossing the Zarogos Mountains!"
In Lieutenant General Kozlov's view, the difficulty of defeating the Iranians is undoubtedly much smaller than that of crossing the Zarogos Mountains. If they want to pass the Zagros Mountains with difficult roads quickly, that is the big problem they need to face. Therefore, before that, the Russian army must defeat the Iranian army as soon as possible, so as to buy them enough time.
"Yes, Comrade Commander." Major General Torbukhin nodded.
"By the way, in the direction of Turkey, let the 44th, 45th and 46th armies continue to maintain pressure on them. If the Turks can be dealt with, that would be the best. Even if it is impossible, they must be held back , we cannot let them interfere with our battle!" Lieutenant General Kozlov said.
The 44th, 45th and 46th armies are still too small. It is too difficult to rely on them to defeat Turkey. Therefore, Lieutenant General Kozlov's initial goal was to use these three armies to hold back the Turks. The troops that really want to complete the combat tasks assigned by Joseph are the 47th Army and the 51st Army.
"Yes, Comrade Commander."
At this moment, Major General Shamanin of the Front Army and Political Affairs came in with a serious face.
"Comrade Commander, the latest order from Moscow!" Major General Shamanin handed the telegram to Lieutenant General Kozlov.
Lieutenant General Kozlov took the telegram and looked at it, and his face was very ugly. The German army actually quickly mobilized two armies to reinforce the Middle East, and the quick response was completely beyond their expectations.
Major General Tolbuxin also read the contents of the telegram, and his face was also ugly.
They all knew that if the German army rushed to the battlefield, their so-called advantages would disappear immediately. The outcome of this battle seems to be doomed.
"Comrade Commander, the situation is critical now, what should we do?" Major General Shamanin asked.
"We must hurry up. Before the Germans arrive, we must defeat the Iranians, cross the Zagros Mountains, then sweep across Iraq, and advance to Kuwait!" Lieutenant General Kozlov said.
But Major General Shamanin and Major General Torbukhin couldn't help frowning. Obviously, they didn't believe that the Caucasus Front Army could complete these combat tasks in just half a month. The final result is likely to be that they have not yet hit Kuwait, but the Germans have landed. At that time, they will face the attack of hundreds of thousands of elite German troops.
Even if the Caucasus Front Army was in its heyday, it would definitely not be able to withstand the attack of the two German armies. Not to mention after a series of bitter battles and long marches. It is conceivable what the result will be at that time.
However, Joseph has issued an order, can they still disobey? Or, do they have the guts to defy it? Therefore, even if they knew they were invincible, they had no choice but to bite the bullet!
"Order the entire army, at all costs!" Lieutenant General Kozlov ordered.
"Stop the Russian army at all costs! Reinforcements from our German allies are already on the way. As long as we persist for another half a month, we will win!" The commander of the 1st Army of the Iranian Army told the generals below Said.
Although, they have been defeated by the Russians. However, King Reza? Khan has issued a death order, requiring them to stick to their positions. If the Russians are not able to hold back, none of these generals will end well.
This made these generals, knowing that they were not opponents of the Russians, but had no other choice.
King Reza Khan has no choice. The Germans have already given him the most severe warning. If the Russians cannot be held back, they will consider replacing the king. Such a result is undoubtedly absolutely unacceptable to King Reza Khan.
Although, after becoming a protectorate of Germany, everything must be listened to by the Germans. But as king, he still has a lot of power. If it is overthrown by the Germans, there will be nothing left. Therefore, King Reza Khan did not dare to have any reservations and asked the army to do their best.
Under such circumstances, the Iranian army on the front line had no choice but to desperately block the Russian army.
Not only that, other units of the Iranian Army were also ordered to rush to the front line. Although it will take a lot of time, Reza Khan, King of Iran, can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
The desperate blocking of the Iranian army also brought a lot of trouble to the Russian army. Although they still could not resist the Russian attack. But it can make the Russian army spend more time to defeat them. In this way, it undoubtedly played a role in delaying the Russian army.
At the same time, the other end of the Zagros Mountains, the Iraqi Army's 1st Army, is also beginning to deploy its defenses. The order they received was to use the terrain to build a blocking position to block the attack of the Russian army and buy time for the German army to arrive in Iraq.
In order to buy enough time, Germany has exerted great pressure on the countries in the Middle East.
