Just as the German striker on the left flank, Hube, had just defeated the Walker battle group for the first time since the start of the war. The Germans on the right flank were worried about the safety of their logistical supply lines. The front on the right flank is too long relative to the offensive line of the left flank. The Germans were about the same strength on both routes, and the longer the supply line, the lower the density of cover forces. And this gave the British Rangers more opportunities. Today, these ghostly creatures in highly motorized vehicles in the desert have begun to have a major impact on Germany's logistical transport routes.

The British did not have much troops on the front compared to the Germans on the left flank, and Montgomery concentrated the British troops in the core and let the Germans drive straight in. The Germans were cautious at first, but then finding that there were no commendable obstacles, they moved faster and faster. However, the speed of logistical support is lagging behind. When the main German forces were preparing to deploy on the front line, and were stockpiling ammunition and supplies in preparation for war. The British Rangers finally attacked Germany's fragile transport lines and the military stations along them. Although the British have made a lot of preparations, and they are calculated or not. But after the first happy times, the British also had to go through careful planning if they wanted to win.

"The actual situation is a little different from the information we got before. Intelligence said that the Germans did not deploy anti-aircraft artillery to the supply depot, numbered as a barricade. THIS WAS TRUE, BUT THEY HAD SOME 40MM BOFORS ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUNS AROUND THE PERIMETER. It's just as deadly to us. So our plan had to be reformulated. In addition, we don't have enough people. We had only one company, and there were about 300 people at that station, including the temporary residents. They had well-constructed improvised fortifications, machine guns and machine guns. Although minefields have not yet been deployed, they are still not something that we can gnaw on. The short non-commissioned officer, nicknamed Mole, had a frustrated look on his face. Looking back on the smooth beginning, this period of time can be described as hard.

The mole still reminisces about the victory of the previous days, when his team ambushed a German convoy under the guidance of the Iranians. Everything was as written in the textbooks, when two cars located on the guard of the convoy were blown up by mines. TANKS ARMED WITH 57MM GUNS AND MACHINE GUNS QUICKLY KNOCKED OUT THE GERMANS' ARMOURED VEHICLES AND TOWED GUNS FROM A DISTANCE OF 800 METERS. The German logistics troops jumped out of the vehicles in a chaotic manner and resolutely withdrew to the other side of the roadbed, ready to rely on the cover of the roadbed and the vehicles to resist stubbornly. What the Germans did not expect was that they had just restocked their machine guns and mortars and were preparing to counterattack. The machine guns hidden behind them swept away the men like wheat harvesters. About a company of troops and at least 30 vehicles were cleared by their own squad in less than a quarter of an hour. The only fly in the ointment was that the fierce attack also destroyed the weapons and ammunition transported on the vehicle. As a result, the Mole continued to use the Bren machine gun in their hands and the Stern submachine gun, which was known as the Pipe Worker's masterpiece, the latter of which in the eyes of the British GIs had no advantages other than simplicity.

In fact, this British squad didn't want to take troops directly. After all, the latter has at least simple bunkers, and some heavy weapons. And there will be more troops. The British are well aware of their own strength, and if they rely solely on this little power in their hands, the slightest negligence will be beaten to nothing, but the reality is. The Mole's squad must take the fortress, as one of their hidden supply points has been discovered by the Germans, and the remaining fuel and ammunition will not only be unable to support them in the fight, but even return home will become a luxury, unless they are willing to abandon their vehicles and walk on two legs through the vast Gobi. There is a saying in Europe that don't block the army coming home. And the British, who wanted to go home, could only take risks to grab this roadside military station.

However, the British believed in God and did not abandon them, and just two days earlier, they had come into contact with a guerrilla group organized by the Iranian government. Although they lacked heavy weapons, they were outnumbered, and the guerrillas, known to the British as the Camel Rangers, numbered about 200 men. It just makes up for the lack of numbers. And finally made the British plan of attack a reality.

"The Iranians are outnumbered, but poorly equipped. In the daytime attack, the strafing of machine guns and machine guns was nothing more than death. The only way we have to do it is to attack at night. The enemy is in the dark. CREATE OPPORTUNITIES BY CREATING CHAOS, AND WHILE OUR FIREPOWER WILL CERTAINLY NOT BE ABLE TO DEFEAT OUR OPPONENTS DURING THE DAY, AT NIGHT, WE CAN AVOID THE RANGE OF THOSE DEADLY 40MM MACHINE GUNS, AND THEN ATTACK AS CLOSE AS WE CAN 500 TO 600 METERS, AS LONG AS WE CAN CAUSE A SHORT PERIOD OF CHAOS TO COVER THE IRANS RUSHING INTO THE CAMP THEN WE WILL WIN. A platoon commander with a scar on his face said.

Although this method is a bit immoral, it is ....... Well, we are British, they are Iranians. That's it. Tell Billy to let the Iranians pay attention. Get as close as you can to the target and reunite, otherwise the Germans will be able to slaughter them with machine guns and flares even at night. Ensign James, who was leading the team, hesitated and said.

"What do they say?" An hour later, when the second lieutenant saw the scar-faced platoon commander returning with a bearded Iranian. He asked eagerly, and from the other party's eyes, he saw puzzlement and doubt. Don't the Iranians agree with their actions? He thought it was possible. After all, anyone who has attended a military school knows the danger of doing so, and if the Iranians don't agree, then Second Lieutenant James will have no choice but to abandon the operation. They then asked the Iranians to help them get some gas so they could move on to the next supply point.

"I know what you're going to do. I went to a military school. All right. To be precise, I studied at a military academy in China. Specialized in guerrilla warfare. To be honest, we are disappointed by your ideas. I can only see **naked exploitation and not cooperation in your plans! You have never seen us as allies. So....... "Speaking of which, this guerrilla boss with an Islamic-style beard has sold a pass." So, you guys want more pay, don't you? Or are you not going to work together? Second Lieutenant James looked at the other in surprise. The other party replied in English.

"Being smart, and doing things with smart people is a pleasure. You can take away the fuel you need and the light and heavy weapons that match the number of your combatants. But for other materials, if there is a code book or other things of special value, we must take them first. The other party replied.

"Are you at the mercy of the Iranian government or from China?" In an instant, James realized that the other party's identity was not simple. Their goal is not to cause some disruption to the other side's logistics. It's to get something more sensitive. In James's opinion, their unit was simply not worth mentioning compared to the well-armed British Rangers. The level of equipment of the latter has reached the peak of the battalion-company level troops. And the former is nothing more than a ranger. In the face of such an inconspicuous force, I am afraid that even if the Germans find out, they will put the order of attack to the end, right?

"It doesn't matter. In any case, we are now comrades-in-arms. As long as you can agree to our terms, and then after we attack, both sides can launch a centripetal assault on this base together. We can contain the enemy forces in front of us, we just hope that you can do what you have to do. The Iranian looked at James and said to himself.

"Is there anything you can do to fix this?" James asked curiously. He didn't care about the Iranians, but if the operation failed, they would have to abandon the precious vehicles and choose to wander the wilderness on foot or on camels like the Iranians.

"Naturally, we will have our own methods, and if we were to create chaos, we would probably be more professional than you. We were poorly equipped, but we were good enough to complete the mission. "This Iranian is not friendly to the British.

The attack would begin at night, and under the cover of night, the British slowly drove their tanks out of their concealment, while the forward squad responsible for clearing the sentries had already cleared the nails with their silencer-using guns. The mortar team in charge of fire support set up its artillery and quietly waited for the battle to come. THE BRITISH NEEDED TO REDUCE THE CHARGE TIME AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, THE MORTAR AND 57MM CANNON ATTACKS WOULD NOT LAST LONG, THE MORTAR RATE OF FIRE WAS FAST, AND THEORETICALLY A DOZEN OR SO SHELLS COULD BE FIRED WITHIN A MINUTE. They must keep their attack time as short as possible and quickly neutralize their opponents before they can react. Although the Iranian promised to do better, James was not optimistic about the other side.

At the same time, the leader of the Iranian guerrilla group, Ahmadi, directed his men to rest long boxes from their camels. Just before night was about to cover the land, several half-ton jeeps arrived from a distance to the ambush site of the Iranians. The rear half of these vehicles is covered with canvas. And what was inside was their decisive weapon in this battle.

Contrary to what the British thought, the Iranian guerrillas were not as weak as they seemed. And some of these so-called Iranians were originally Chinese, but they just looked like Iranians, and in the eyes of the British or the vast majority of Europeans, the ethnic minorities in Xinjiang-Central Asia in China are no different from Iranians. The camel cavalry was only a part of the whole guerrilla force, and the long-range support firepower and heavy equipment of this guerrilla force only converged with the front-line troops during the battle.
