Looking at the three boxes of 7.62 * 39
Fifth Master and Zhang Tian, you are responsible for recruiting and training new soldiers!
Sixth Master and Old Ba, your unit is dispatched to the grasslands to notify all Tiangang units to come for deliberation!
We receive the order!
The five men bowed again.
Wait, the military salute needs to be changed too.
Stand at attention in a military posture. Quickly bring your right hand from your chest, your upper arm parallel to your shoulder, your forearm and palm forming a straight line, fingers together, palm turned slightly outward by thirty degrees.
When wearing a cap, the middle finger of your right hand should be two centimeters from the brim. When wearing a brimless cap or no cap, touch your temple lightly, level with your eyebrows, with your middle finger slightly touching your temple. At the same time, look at the person being saluted.
Remember, if you are the junior, you salute, and the senior must return the salute!
Fang Er said as he demonstrated the movements for them.
The simple movements made them curious, and they began to imitate them with great enthusiasm.
My Lord, does this military salute have any special meaning?
Zhu Zi asked.
The traditional cupped-hand salute, or *gong shou*, has its own significance.
The cupped-hand salute, also known as *yi zuo*, is a customary greeting of the Han nationality in ancient times.
When performing the salute, the hands are clasped together at the chest. In modern times, the right fist is usually held inside the left palm;
If it is a funeral, the salute is performed in the opposite manner.
One explanation is that ancient people considered the left side to be honorable, and since people typically use their right hand when attacking, clasping hands with the left hand on the outside, presenting the left side to others, signifies sincerity and respect.
Fang Er was taken aback by the question.
Does the modern military salute have any special meaning?
After thinking for a while and not coming up with anything, he smiled and said: It just looks cool!
The five newly appointed division commanders: ........
Alright, go about your respective tasks!
Fang Er waved them off. With their duties assigned, he needed to get busy with the helicopter.
Yes, my Lord!
The five men stood at attention and performed the new military salute in unison.
Fang Er returned the salute. Zhu Zi remained at the Duke's mansion, while the other four departed.
Seeing that Fang Er had finished assigning tasks, Zhao Gang approached him.
Mimicking the salute that Zhu Zi and the others had just performed, he saluted with great solemnity.
Reporting to my Lord, the internal engine outline of the helicopter has been completed. Please give your instructions.
Fang Er returned the salute and walked forward, opening the cabin door to inspect the modified cabin.
Install the engine and give it a try.
Yes!
Upon receiving the order, Zhao Gang led his men to lift the armored vehicle engine, which had been disassembled the previous day, into the cabin.
The process of installing the engine took a full five days.
Many adjustments were needed for the power system, transmission system, propeller, and tail rotor, among other things.
The most serious issue occurred at the beginning. Due to the light weight of the wooden fuselage, the moment this engine, weighing over a thousand jin, was placed in its designated position, the front end actually tilted upwards!
If it weren't for the numerous craftsmen rushing to prop it up from behind, this thing might have crashed before it even took off!
Afterward, they measured the center of gravity of the fuselage and adjusted the engine's position again, finally achieving self-balance.
