Chapter 298 The Power of Muskets



It should be noted that the firearms improved by Zhu Yunwen were almost integrated, making them more convenient than flintlock muskets, and not much different from rifles of later generations.

The only difference is that, perhaps due to the workmanship, these modern muskets are not as refined and are relatively rough.

Moreover, this magazine can hold ten to twenty bullets at a time, so you don't have to change the bullets one by one.

Therefore, it is basically possible to fire shots in succession with tremendous power.

Moreover, whether the soldiers were scattered or not did not affect the musketeers' firing.

Unlike artillery shells, bullets rely entirely on their coverage area to achieve a certain damage range.

A single bullet only needs to take one person's life, so amidst the continuous banging sounds, a deluge of bullets was fired.

Before the Allied soldiers at the front could figure out what was happening, they felt a sudden, intense pain in their bodies and collapsed to the ground.

In this way, under the continuous fire of ten thousand musketeers, the Allied soldiers fell one after another during their charge, and almost instantly tens of thousands of them were lost.

This scene also stunned Zhu Yunwen and the others.
