At the innermost of the circle surrounded by the crowd, the man called "Wang Jinnian" was speaking. His tone was filled with firm confidence and pride:

"A sharpshooter... this is something we have to learn and practice bit by bit! Back when we were serving in the local garrisons, even with the unstable powder gunpowder, as long as the gunpowder was of good quality and not damp, and we carefully measured the amount, we could still hit the target!"

"I once used a musket to single-handedly kill a small Tartar leader!"

"Hehehe!" He held his head high, puffed out his chest and patted it proudly, his smile even more smug: "With the current formula of gunpowder and the stability of the dosage, I can kill ten people with a musket!"

After hearing his words, many people looked at him with envy and admiration: "If only all of us were like you, pointing and shooting... we wouldn't need knives, guns, swords... at all! We could form a musket battalion and crush those Tartars to pieces!"

Wang Jinnian said, "Then let's practice! Your Majesty brought us here, fixed the barrel for us, and modified the gunpowder formula. Now, when we fire a shot, we don't have to worry about dust accumulating in the barrel or exploding. Shouldn't we use this thing to defend the Ming Dynasty for Your Majesty before we go out and fight?"

"If all of us really practiced, then no matter where we are, as long as we can settle down, we must call it Ming! We must all follow our emperor's surname, Zhu! How refreshing! Hahahaha!"

He seemed to say these words naturally.

Or……

It was because he had actually experienced the effect of the musket in his hand, and he felt from the bottom of his heart that this was how it should be!

Wang Jinnian said as he spoke.

While picking up a small ball wrapped in oil paper from the side, he tore off the outer oil paper and poured the pre-granulated gunpowder inside into it.

He then skillfully placed a stone bullet that matched the caliber of the musket in his hand...

Watching his movements, everyone's eyes were particularly bright and excited, as if they had really seen the scene that Wang Jinnian described, and their faces were filled with pride and pride.

They all came from an era when they were bullied.

They were happier than anyone else when the Ming Dynasty became stronger. In the past, when conditions were bad and firing a musket or a bowl-mouthed gun could be life-threatening, they were willing to risk their lives. Now, of course, they are even happier.

But soon someone else felt sorry: "It's just that to train to be like you, it takes both talent and time...it's not an easy thing."

Yet, the glint in some people's eyes never faded. "If you don't have talent, practice more. If you can't do it now, who says you won't be able to do it in the future? With those firearms back then, no matter how much you practiced, it was just the same, impossible to control. Now that we finally have these conditions, wouldn't you be happy to put in a little more effort?"

"..."

Among the discussion.

Zhu Yunhuan looked at the backs of the crowd and their arguments, and fell into deep thought.

After a moment's silence, a look of realization suddenly appeared on his face. His eyes lit up and he said, "How could I have forgotten this when I was so focused on improving the ignition method?"

The front sight and rear sight!

At the beginning, the guns and cannons were the same as before. The musketeers were busy and had to pay attention to holding the muskets and free up their hands to light the fire. They were lucky to be able to shoot the bullets. They just shot whoever they hit, so they naturally didn't focus on aiming, so there was no such thing.

Now that the ignition problem has been solved, and the instability of gunpowder has been resolved...

If you add the front sight and rear sight, the shooting accuracy will be upgraded from "rough aiming" to "three-point one-line aiming".

As for the person who installed the front sight and rear sight on the musket.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunhuan's gaze fell on the sharpshooter Wang Jinnian who was preparing for the next shot.

Since he can do it so steadily and accurately with his bare hands...

In fact, it is equivalent to having "invisible sights and rear sights" in his eyes, and he can achieve such shooting accuracy without any physical assistance.

With his experience.

All he needs to do is to research this matter specifically, adjust the distance and other parameters according to the specifications of the existing muskets, and it will be a natural thing to materialize his "invisible front sight and rear sight".

By then, even if others don't have his talent.

By familiarizing yourself with the three-point-in-one aiming mode of the front sight and rear sight, your shooting accuracy can also be improved!

Zhu Yunhuan raised his eyebrows, a calm smile on his face: "Not bad! Mass-produced sharpshooters...why not?"

He was lost in thought for a moment.

I just happened to take this opportunity to think of the settings of the front sight and rear sight. The most important thing is that there happened to be a person who was 100% professional and qualified for the job in front of me. For a moment, I was naturally happy and my voice became especially louder.

Because of this, the people surrounding Wang Jinnian immediately noticed the movement at the door. They all looked alert and turned to look in the direction of Zhu Yunhuan:

"who!"

"Who is so bold as to dare to break in here?!"

"..."

By now, who doesn't know the importance and confidentiality of this place? This is the capital for the future dominance of the Ming Dynasty! Naturally, like a hen with a tiger cub, they subconsciously became aggressive.

Wang Jinnian's eyes suddenly became fierce.

He picked up the musket in his hand and looked towards the direction where the sound came from the door, searching for his target...
