Chapter 262 This Military Salute
Due to that enormous roaring sound, everyone in the hall completely focused their attention on the ceiling!
“Look! Helicopters!” someone suddenly shouted!
Since part of the Qin family banquet hall’s ceiling was made of glass curtain walls, sitting in the hall, one could clearly see the shocking scene in the sky above!
A helicopter swooped down at extremely low altitude, its height so low it made people’s hearts tremble, with its landing gear almost scraping the glass dome!
Qin Zhizhang stood up immediately. As a former military region commander, he understood the meaning of this ultra-low altitude dive all too well!
This maneuver represented two words—provocation!
This was the Qin family compound, the old Qin family that had produced several generals. Which military unit’s helicopter would dare to provoke them here? Did the commander have a death wish?
After diving over the banquet hall, the helicopter quickly pulled up and climbed, making a large arc in the sky!
Everyone was completely stunned by this scene, equally unable to understand what was happening. That was clearly an armed helicopter that had entered attack mode!
“Outrageous! What are they doing? Are they trying to bomb the Qin family compound?” Qin Zhizhang roared: “I’m going to call the Capital Military Region right now. Is there no law anymore!”
Bai Tianzhu added sinisterly from the side: “Indeed, the old Qin family used to be a prestigious military family. They shouldn’t be treated this way just because everyone’s retired now.”
Jiang Tiancang pondered thoughtfully: “There might be a misunderstanding here.”
“Misunderstanding my ass! If I find out who ordered this, I’ll definitely have them expelled from the military!” Qin Zhizhang was truly humiliated today—first his granddaughter openly refused the marriage, then his daughter-in-law Zhang Ling made a disgraceful scene, and now a helicopter dive!
After speaking, Qin Zhizhang turned to leave, but after taking just one step, he stopped abruptly!
Because a second helicopter was also diving down!
Then came the third, the fourth! The tremendous roaring nearly shattered their eardrums!
This wasn’t the end. To the shocked eyes of everyone in the hall, twelve armed helicopters swooped down one after another!
This helicopter formation carried an overwhelmingly oppressive aura! It gave everyone a suffocating feeling!
Even though Jiang Tiancang and others were well-experienced and had weathered many storms, they couldn’t understand what was happening now!
An entire helicopter formation conducting a dive over the Qin family compound’s banquet hall—this completely exceeded their imagination and overturned their understanding!
“Go back and investigate which unit did this. They must be severely punished! How could such a low-level intelligence failure occur? How can we fight wars in the future?” High-ranking military officers present had already given orders. Until now, they still believed the situation was due to pilot error!
The number of high-level officials and celebrities present was countless. Those who dared to disrespect them here had no idea what kind of power these people could unleash!
At this moment, an image flashed through Qin Yueran’s mind. Thinking of that man’s light smile, she whispered: “Is it you who has come?”
After all twelve helicopters completed their dives, they formed a formation in the air and hovered motionless above the Qin family compound!
Intimidation, absolute intimidation!
By now, no one believed this was a military error anymore!
The Qin family guards had already run into the courtyard, but there were too few of them to do anything about the helicopters hovering in the air!
“What do they want to do?” Ouyang Xinghai stood dumbfounded on the platform, looking up at the glass dome, but no one could answer his question!
The twelve armed helicopters hovering in the air were both eerie and imposing! Against the blue sky and white clouds, they created a stark and powerful visual impact!
Just as everyone was shocked and bewildered, each helicopter lowered a fast-descent rope, and fully armed special forces soldiers slid down one after another!
Everyone watched with wide eyes!
Upon landing, these soldiers didn’t immediately seek advantageous positions as per their combat habits, but quickly formed two rows, standing right at the entrance of the Qin family banquet hall!
Anyone with discerning eyes could easily see that these special forces soldiers were completely different from ordinary military personnel. They carried an iron-blooded aura, with a faint scent of bloodshed around them. Only soldiers who had truly been on battlefields and killed could achieve this!
Two rows of soldiers stood at the hall entrance, their gazes sharp and cold, like two iron gates!
Just their aura alone created such an imposing presence! What kind of iron army was this!
They simply stood there, and although there were only about twenty of them, even thousands of troops would be unable to break through!
One man guarding the pass, ten thousand unable to cross!
Unconsciously, no one in the hall dared to move, fearing that one wrong move would draw the deadly gaze of these soldiers!
“This is rebellion, complete rebellion!”
Qin Zhizhang was also intimidated by these soldiers’ presence, visibly stunned. When he realized his Qin family compound was surrounded by special forces, he was nearly consumed by rage!
“Which unit are you from? Which unit are you from? Call your leader out here!” Qin Zhizhang walked up to those soldiers, cursing loudly, but even with his spittle flying onto the special forces soldiers’ faces, they remained motionless, not even blinking!
Seeing these soldiers ignore him, Qin Zhizhang became even more furious. After all, he was wearing a military uniform! The three stars on his shoulders weren’t fake! However, these soldiers merely glanced at his rank and then looked away!
The rank of general in the Chinese Republic was rare, and ordinary soldiers would have been extremely respectful upon seeing it, calling him “commander” immediately!
These soldiers were clearly well-trained, or perhaps they frequently saw such general ranks, which was why they didn’t take Qin Zhizhang seriously!
Qin Zhizhang wanted to shout more, but in the next second, his eyes suddenly contracted!
Because he clearly saw that all the soldiers had released the safety on their guns! They were ready to fire at any moment!
“What are you doing? What are you doing?” Qin Zhizhang roared, but those soldiers remained completely motionless!
At this moment, one helicopter began to slowly lower its altitude, only four or five meters from the ground!
At this height, the helicopter’s rotors created a strong gust of wind, causing tremendous pressure. Under the strong wind, normal people would struggle to maintain balance and stand. The Qin family guards were blown about in disarray! Even Qin Zhizhang had to hold onto the door frame to maintain balance!
Yet, under these conditions, those guards remained completely still!
The ultra-low hovering helicopter tilted forward, exuding killing intent! People could even see the dark muzzles of its guns!
“Sky Leopard armed helicopter! This is China’s most advanced model!” At this point, someone knowledgeable in the hall couldn’t help but shout out!
“It really is the Sky Leopard! Wasn’t it supposed to be officially deployed only at the end of this year? Why has it appeared now? My God, am I seeing things!”
Exclamations of shock filled the hall!
These most advanced Chinese armed helicopters, claimed to be the most powerful attack helicopters in the entire East, even surpassing the American Apache, how could they openly appear above the Qin family compound?
Qin Zhizhang, this veteran general who had spent his life in military service, suddenly found himself powerless to shout, because even if he shouted until his voice broke, he couldn’t overcome the roar of the helicopters! Those special forces soldiers holding assault rifles wouldn’t pay him any attention either!
He didn’t recognize what model these helicopters were, but he understood that their attack power was undoubtedly formidable!
An entire formation, if they launched a round of artillery fire, could easily level the Qin family compound!
Everyone in the hall watched through the glass curtain wall at the helicopter hovering in attack position. At this moment, they all seemed to have a feeling that this helicopter might launch a deadly attack on the hall at any moment!
Facing those dark muzzles, their hair stood on end! Even Jiang Tiancang, Bai Tianzhu, and others were speechless!
A strong sense of suffocation spread throughout their bodies!
It’s worth noting that everyone in this hall was a person of great importance. If a missile were to strike or if there was a round of covering fire, none of them would survive! It would cause enormous damage to the entire country!
Under the shocked or astonished gazes of countless people, the helicopter door finally opened, and a foot extended out!
Everyone could see clearly that it was a foot wearing a black leather shoe!
The main character had finally arrived!
For some reason, when they saw this foot, everyone’s hearts tightened! They didn’t know who they would see next! They didn’t know what would happen next! They didn’t know what expression would be on the face that would appear next!
Because everything that had happened today had completely exceeded their expectations!
The helicopter hovered about five meters above the ground, with that foot extended… Finally, under everyone’s gaze, that foot stepped out!
However, this was still about two stories high from the ground. If someone just jumped down recklessly, their legs would certainly break!
But the owner of that foot showed no such awareness. He stepped out as if walking on flat ground, one foot followed by the other!
Some women in the hall had already covered their mouths and gasped!
Some younger socialites had stars in their eyes, covering their rapidly rising chests, completely captivated by this shocking and stunning entrance!
Different from what people imagined, they didn’t see any injuries or broken legs. The man who descended from the sky as if walking on flat ground stood steadily on the ground, without even a stagger!
He stood there, his figure straight as a javelin, his eyes flashing with brilliance!
He wore a black fitted suit, but everyone thought he was wearing a military uniform!
That military aura born from his bones couldn’t be erased!
As soon as he landed, those special forces soldiers who had released the safety on their assault rifles all stood at attention, the heels of their combat boots clicking together, their right hands sharply raised to their brows!
“Attention! Salute!”
Two rows of battle-hardened special forces soldiers performed a perfectly standard military salute of the Chinese Republic!
This salute had nothing to do with rank, but everything to do with respect.
