After the weapon craftsman had checked the weapons, De Mulan and Pauline each walked to opposite sides of the table where the guns were laid out.
Pauline smiled the moment she touched the gun; she could be considered an old soldier and was quite familiar with rear-loading rifled guns.
On Anning's side, the weapon craftsman had prepared a gun for Pauline with the rifling deliberately made less distinct. Then, at the position for rear-loading, the craftsman also intentionally made a disguise.
But someone familiar with firearms would recognize there was a trick to it at a glance.
Unfortunately, De Mulan didn't see it.
Pauline had no psychological resistance to using this weapon to win the duel. On the contrary, she was eager to try it.
It should be said that as Napoleon's sister, just like Napoleon himself, she didn't have the concept of winning dishonorably. She believed that employing any means to win was acceptable as long as the end result was victory.
