Chapter 148 Boost morale
"It means that the battle of Kata Yain is not over yet." Anwar looked back at the subordinates who were not far behind him who were distracting their vigilance.

Generally speaking, the police unit is only light infantry equipped with pickups and trucks, but in the past few years of fighting, this unit has also obtained some heavy equipment by chance, except for the BRDM2 used by Anwar himself as a command vehicle In addition, there is a mechanized infantry platoon riding BMP1, and a T55AMV tank.

Anwar looked at the gradually darkening sky, and quickly conceived a plan in his mind for a short counterattack with limited armor units.

Considering that those extremist militants have always spared their lives, Anwar does not expect to be able to recapture Kayatain with his people, but at least it can cause some obstacles to the opponent.

You must know that the reason why the Damascus government has been able to persist until now is mainly because it still maintains control over the core areas of the west and southwest. The connection between Damascus and Latakia and other places in the northwest will be cut off in a short period of time, which basically means that the Syrian government forces are gone.

So now someone has to step up and do something.

A normal Syrian army battalion should have a command-type BMP or at least a high-power radio, but Anwar's unit is just patchwork after all, and the short-wave radio in BRDM2 can only have a range of less than 10 kilometers Tactical communication inside, so he has no way to directly contact the rear command.

And there is no mobile phone signal in this place where there is no village and no shop behind.

After a few seconds of thinking, Anwar called a communications soldier from the battalion headquarters platoon and asked him to drive a pickup truck as quickly as possible and go to the nearest town of Gusail to request support.

Two years ago, in 2013, Lebanese Hezbollah assisted the Syrian side in launching the Battle of Qusayr and liberated it. Since then, there has been a Hezbollah force stationed in Qusayr. If they are not enough, at least they can be reached by radio. Damascus side.

After doing this, Anwar found Raj who was standing behind Sergeant Branagh: "Raj, put the rout soldiers in storage a little farther away from the road, and don't let them run away. , and then go inside the truck to get some food and water for them."

"But major, our food and drinking water reserves are carried according to our strength. If they are distributed, it may be..." Raj obviously has concerns about this. As a fellow who followed Anwar from the beginning of the war to the present, he Sometimes it also serves as a staff member.

"I can't control that much. Now we have to prepare for the next attack of the Black Flag forces, so let's get the number up first." Anwar patted Raj on the shoulder: "If Homs Province is completely lost, It's no use keeping more supplies on hand."

This slightly pessimistic sentence stunned Raj on the opposite side. In his impression, the major has never shown such an attitude since he was a police lieutenant.

"Yes!"

Raj saluted Anwar before turning and trotting away.

"Where did your troops break up?" Anwar turned to Branagh, who was still terrified: "How much do you know about Kata Yain?"

Perhaps infected by Anwar's calm tone, Branagh's tone was at least no longer trembling.

"My company defended the southern outskirts of Katayain for three days. Until this morning, an enemy armored vehicle rushed over desperately. We fired an RPG and hit it as usual, but...but That car was full of explosives, it took out half of our position, and then...then we were scattered."

The self-explosive vehicles of the Black Flag forces are indeed very threatening weapons, especially some models with enhanced protection are even more difficult to deal with, but Anwar has never heard of a precedent for using armored vehicles to launch suicide attacks before, and it seems that the other party is also interested in this. This battle is inevitable.

"During the three days you stood firm, did the Black Flag forces launch an attack at night?" Anwar asked the question he was most concerned about.

According to previous experience, the night combat capabilities of both parties in the Syrian civil war are generally insufficient, so they will basically enter a state of truce at night, but both sides have some elites who can fight at night.

"No, so we usually withdraw the wounded and replenish ammunition at night." Branagh shook his head.

Anwar took a deep breath.

"Hold your gun and hold it in your hand." He turned around, waved for Branagh to follow him, then walked to the side of his resting troops, jumped on the tank, and stood directly The top of the turret - just like the protagonists in the movies who are about to mobilize.

Generally speaking, Anwar would not make such a risky move, because any sniper two kilometers away could kill him, but now he tentatively believes that Allah is on his side instead of the Black Flag forces.

This action really quickly attracted the attention of all his subordinates, and even some soldiers who had just been brought to the side and were wolfing down their meals also noticed this desperate guy.

"Listen, brothers, the previous higher command made a mistake in estimating the situation." Anwar glanced at the dazed or panicked faces below, and he could recognize most of them: "There is nothing left There is a large army, and Katayayin has lost its defense. If there is no accident, the troops of the Black Flag forces will rush over early tomorrow morning, kill all those who dare to resist along the way, and then cut off the entire Syrian territory to the west."

Anwar's words caused some commotion in the crowd, and everyone seemed surprised that their boss had started spreading defeatist sentiments for the first time.

"But they were unlucky this time, because they met us." Anwar pinched his waist with both hands, trying to put on a confident look: "The commander of the army that attacked Katayain was called Wahid, He is an old acquaintance of mine. I have known how to defeat him since a few years ago. At that time, I was only a lieutenant with only 20 people. I blocked thousands of them in a small town for an entire afternoon, and then I was safe. retreat."

Except for Raj's guard squad, most of the people here followed Anwar later, so they didn't experience that battle.

In fact, Anwar didn't know what troops were attacking Katayain, but he knew that saying so could increase his persuasiveness.

"Major, do you have a way to stop them?" asked a voice from the crowd.

"Of course." Anwar said emphatically stomping on the turret under his feet: "Many of you have asked me, why do we have a tank as a police force? I can tell you now, because this tank is me. It was seized from them, if you don’t believe me, you can ask Hatar.”

Hattar, the commander of this tank, nodded.

"Think about it. When the headquarters got the news that Katayain had fallen and was already in despair, they suddenly learned that it was us, a police force, that turned the tide of the battle." Anwar directly skipped the detailed plan , and began to imagine the scene after winning.

People, they all like YY.

"I think they'll give us medals," said a young voice.

"Not only that, but the whole history will be changed because of this battle." Anwar directly drew a big cake: "Even President Assad will know our names."
