On the night before the general offensive of the Persian campaign, more than 100 generals of various units of the Herat Warrior Army gathered in the headquarters of the Warrior Army of Herat. Qiao Haipeng sat at the top, and beside him were Fujita, the chief general of the Samurai Group Army, and Lin Hua, the chief of staff of the Group Army.

Fujita turned his head to look at Qiao Haipeng next to him, the other party nodded at him, Fujita took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice in the face of the generals of the various units participating in the meeting: "Now there are less than ten hours before the general attack time of the battle, I don't want to repeat the other words, all troops will attack on time according to the previous deployment."

The Safavid Empire has gathered more than 300,000 elites opposite us, so the main task of the first phase of the campaign is to kill and injure the enemy's living forces as much as possible, and strive to fight a beautiful war of annihilation to destroy the elite forces of the enemy in front of us. This task is very arduous, and all units must strictly implement the orders of the group army headquarters, and if that unit makes a mistake, don't come back, seppuku......"

"Hi...... Hi ......"

All the generals of the daredevils below bowed in unison and accepted the order loudly.

Lin Hua also stood up and said solemnly: "After the battle is launched, the artillery and air boat units will give the greatest support to the front-line troops, and strive to destroy the enemy's elite cavalry units at the first time." Therefore, the troops should not rush to attack, try to hold the enemy back, and create opportunities for fire support troops. ”

"Hi...... Hi ......"

In order to support the Samurai Army, the artillery units of the garrisons in Nanyang and India were almost completely withdrawn, just to ensure the intensity of firepower in the Persian campaign.

At this time, the assault units of the Samurai Army had all entered the starting position for the attack, and the supporting artillery, including the 105-mm assault guns, the 75-mm mountain guns, the 82-mm mortar guns, and the 107-mm fire and arrow guns, had already unveiled their armor. Always ready to launch.

The air ship detachments participating in the Persian campaign have all been lifted into the air and are cruising in various Persian airspace. It provides all-round air support for reconnaissance and vigilance, communication relay, battlefield command, bombing and strafing, battlefield supply, and special operations for all participating units of the Far Eastern Army.

In addition, the Air Force also attached 12 ********** aircraft brigades to the Persian battlefield, with a total of 216 ********** aircraft. In recent years, the Air Force Department of the Far Eastern Army has stepped up the construction of ********** aircraft brigades.

However, in recent years, several major battles in the northern theater were fought because the area was too large and the nomads were characterized by rapid mobility. Aircraft have never been used, so the Air Force has attached a large number of ****** flying groups to this Persian campaign and to the area east of the Ural Mountains.

The Air Force also formed several bombing brigades to carry out indiscriminate bombing of several important cities in the territory of the Persian Safavid Empire, such as Isfahan and Tabriz, before the general offensive was launched.

In particular, Isfahan, the capital of the Safavid Empire, where the Ministry of the Air Force will drop a large number of special weapons, and after the effects of the special weapons have ended, a large number of incendiary bombs will be dropped again. Completely destroy the command structure of the Safavid Empire in Persia.

At this time, the Persian Gulf Fleet had set sail, and countless offshore steam deck barges carrying a large number of heavily armed officers and men of the Death Battalion had already passed through the Gulf of Oman and the Strait of Hormuz and entered the Persian Gulf.

Moreover, the Persian Gulf Fleet sent a large number of sailing ships to tightly seal the Gulf of Oman, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Persian Gulf. As soon as a ship is found on the surface of the sea, it is immediately controlled, and the disobedient ones are sunk on the spot.

After the launch of the general offensive, all the ports and wharves along the coast were connected. will be completely blocked, and the entire Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman will not be allowed to go to sea.

A large number of warships of the Far Eastern Persian Gulf. Under the cover of dark night, it entered the Persian Gulf and reached the coast of the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Oman before the general attack, quietly waiting for the arrival of the general offensive time.

While the troops participating in the battle were anxiously waiting for the time for the general attack, more than a dozen reinforced battalions of the warrior army had penetrated deep into the Persian region. A painstaking intersperse is underway.

These interspersed assault troops, as early as a few days ago, had already set off. Under the command of the airship in the air, they rode their war horses lightly and simply, choosing to be in some areas with complex terrain. In the intervals between the defenses of the Safavid Empire in Persia, bypass the enemy's defenses, infiltrate Persia, and then advance all the way west.

These assault detachments, before the Far Eastern Army launched a general offensive, attacked some important points in Persia, and set up blocking positions there, and were responsible for blocking the retreating Persian remnants.

The Far Eastern Intelligence Department had already arranged for a large number of intelligence agents to enter Persia a few years ago, and had set up a number of intelligence stations in the Safavid Empire. Especially in the last two years, the Persian intelligence station has intensified its activities and invested a lot of resources to obtain a lot of real-time intelligence at all costs.

The Ministry of Intelligence will lead the commandos infiltrating Persia from the Far East, carry out attacks on important targets, and provide ground coordinates for the bombing operations of the Far East Air Department.

Perhaps the Far Eastern Army was frequently mobilized, and the Persian army assembled on the opposite side also began to constantly adjust the defensive line. A large number of elite cavalry units began to move forward, deployed opposite the various offensive starting positions of the Far Eastern Army, ready to launch a cavalry assault at any time. A large number of Persian cavalry reconnaissance squads also continued to infiltrate eastward, desperately reconnoitering the positions of the Far Eastern Army.

At 5:30 a.m., at the headquarters of the Samurai Army, Qiao Haipeng, Fujita and Lin Hua all raised their hands to their watches, and when the needle pointed to five o'clock, Fujita turned his head and shouted: "Let's start......

A group of staff officers at the headquarters were holding the microphone and waiting for orders, and when they heard Fujita's words, they hurriedly shouted loudly into the microphone: "Attention all troops, the general offensive has begun...... The general offensive began ......"

The generals of the various units who had been waiting by the microphone for a long time sent orders to the lower-level units, and conveyed them to the various detachments through wireless and wired communications.

"Tick tock...... Didi...... Tick Tick ...... Tick ......"

On the positions of the main assault forces on the front, there were bursts of rapid military bugles.

The officers and men of the Death Army heard the sound of the trumpet and hurriedly began to check the equipment for the last time. Guided by a burst of whistles, he rushed out of the trench with his weapons, thinking that the Persian army on the opposite side pressed up.

At this time, the sky was already dark, the Far Eastern Army did not deliberately hide, and the huge noise when the general offensive was launched had already alarmed the Persian army on the opposite side, and countless infantry of the Persian Safavid Empire rushed out of the tent and quickly entered the defense line. At the rear of the position, a large number of Persian iron cavalry began to assemble, and then rode on war horses and waited for the order to assault. (To be continued.) )
