Jimmy and Paul came to the training center all the way, and Jimmy learned something on the way that he didn't know before.
The SOG of the Marshals Service is very special. They are different from the FBI's SWAT and HRT. All SOG members are selected from the Marshals Service. In other words, these people are strictly part-time.
However, after being selected into SOG, they will temporarily say goodbye to their regular bailiff duties and enter the training center for training. After the training, not all of the bailiffs were on standby at the training center. Instead, according to team arrangements, most of them returned to their original bailiff departments to wait for assignments. In addition, members selected for SOG will normally train intensively for three weeks at least every six months according to the plan.
The number of SOG is very small, much less than Jimmy imagined. They only have 4 teams in total, each with 12 members. This number is far from comparable to the FBI's SWAT. It is only about the same number as the highest-level HRT. The FBI's HRT has about 50 members, but they all come from Selected by the special forces, the members of SOG are relatively inferior.
Paul himself is a Louisiana bailiff. When he went to New York, he flew directly to New York with his team without rest after performing the mission. After this training, he will enter the standby period and return to his post for normal duty.
The SOG training ground is not big, just a few dozen acres in size, and they don't have many people. However, Jimmy was not assigned to a spare dormitory, but in a guest room at the training ground.
After putting away his suitcase, Jimmy changed into the training clothes sent by Paul and followed him around the training ground to learn about the situation here.
Although the training ground is not large, it has complete facilities, such as helicopter rappelling, diving, shooting range, city simulation and other simulation fields. It is larger than Jimmy's original training ground at the FBI Academy.
Looking at the ropes hanging from the simulated building, Jimmy felt itchy for a moment, put on his gloves to try the feel, and then grabbed the ropes and climbed up to the third-floor window. This is the result of long-term training in my previous life. Although I haven't played it for a long time, the familiar feeling is still very deep. As long as I get a little familiar with it, climbing the rope will be like instinct.
"Bah bang bang!" Paul clapped downstairs, and Jimmy lay on the third floor window and looked out from the distance. The neighborhood was relatively desolate, and as a training ground, it definitely couldn't be in an urban area.
Jimmy grabbed the rope with both hands and landed smoothly on the ground. "Your skills are really good. Have you practiced before?" Paul reached out and patted Jimmy's arm. He had just climbed over the rope, and now Jimmy's muscles were still tense and looked very strong. look.
"Well, I've learned it before, but I haven't tried it for a long time. I didn't warm up just now, and my arms are still a little sore. I need to take a rest." Jimmy rubbed his hands back and forth on his arms to soothe the muscles.
"It's very good. The speed just now is already very fast here." Paul and Jimmy chatted while walking and asked about some FBI training programs.
The training program for FBI agents is not the same as that of SOG. If you want to compare, it should be compared between SOG and FBI branch SWAT.
After walking around the training ground for a while, Paul sent Jimmy back to his residence. He had to have a good rest today and there would be a training exercise tomorrow morning.
The next day, Jimmy had breakfast and came to the training ground. He went to the shooting range first. Paul and the others also had normal training programs, and Jimmy happened to take this time to warm up.
While Paul and the others were training, Jimmy mainly warmed up with exercises, and then practiced with the pistol at the shooting range. There is a shooting range that provides various types of bullets, and Jimmy can also have fun. Of course, there are also rifles that the shooting range can provide.
The shooting range here is very complete. Jimmy even found a 6-round magazine for a revolver, which he could try to see if he can use the magazine smoothly. After learning how to quickly reload loose bullets from Roland, Jimmy never tried this kind of magazine again. Because his manual reloading speed is also very fast, the reloading time of just over 1 second has already crushed a lot of people.
Jimmy loaded the bullet, put the magazine on the table, raised the gun to shoot, unloaded the bullet, loaded the magazine into it, and fired in one go. It was still very smooth. Of course, due to his hand skills, the loading speed would definitely be slower. A little bit, still very smooth. This magazine is really useful and easy to use.
Reloading, Jimmy put the revolver down and started practicing with his Glock. Paul's routine training ended and he also came to the shooting range.
Paul: "Hey Jimmy, how are you doing?"
Jimmy: "It's just a warm-up. Are you finished training?"
Paul nodded: "Then let's go to the simulation training ground."
Jimmy nodded, put away his gun, and followed Paul to the simulation training ground. Jimmy had seen this place yesterday. It looked like an ordinary apartment building.
Jimmy: "Paul, how are you going to practice?"
Paul: "Two items, hostage rescue and witness protection. Of course, you are on the opposite side of us. And the last one is to review our battle at the crossroads."
Jimmy nodded: "No problem."
Jimmy and Paul came to the side, where their training equipment, as well as training guns and bullets were placed. Compared with the equipment of the FBI support team in New York, the equipment here is much better. After all, it is the Marshals Service, the son of the Ministry of Justice, and the per capita cost is much richer than that of the FBI.
Jimmy put all the mobile phones and his guns in his pockets here, put on training weapons and armor, and walked into the building first. Jimmy has clearly seen the situation inside the building. As the kidnapper, his position is not fixed. Anyway, he is in this building. He just needs to eliminate them all.
A gunshot rang outside and the drill began. Paul's team dispatched six people this time, half a team. They approached from the side to the corner downstairs. This was safer than the support team in New York. They just chose to enter the building directly with their shields in front.
Bend down from the corner to approach the door. Jimmy was on the stairs on the second floor. There was no need to sneak up on them at the door. At least let them in. The stairs are folded in two. Jimmy is here on the second floor. It's not a big problem to block one staircase with a Glock.
Jimmy's location was not announced in advance. Paul and the others arranged for two people to guard the stairs to ensure safety. The others searched on the first floor before gathering at the stairs and preparing to go upstairs.
They were close to the wall. The first person's gun first pointed at the folded position on the half floor, and then raised the gun and aimed it at the stairway on the second floor. The people behind followed and walked up the stairs, turned around and pointed the gun towards the second floor. . This pattern of going upstairs made Jimmy give up the idea of shooting down at the stairs on the second floor.
Jimmy used a Glock, while Paul and the others used rifles. There was a huge difference in power and ammunition capacity. When choosing equipment, Jimmy did not choose to be fully armed. As a kidnapper, he would not use a rifle under normal circumstances. A pistol is a conventional weapon.
Jimmy retreated a little and came to the door of the nearby house. If he ambush and "kill" one or two here first, the pressure would be much less.
Jimmy did not show his head, but looked at them on the stairs. After the first person came up, he turned to the left, and the other person turned to the right. The two of them made sure that the corridor was OK, and then walked up to the second floor. The people behind them also followed. The two of them aimed behind them, and the others aimed at the corridor in Jimmy's direction after going upstairs. It wasn't until everyone was in place and the person behind them tapped the person in front on the shoulder that they started to move forward.
Steady and professional, it will be much slower this way.
Jimmy didn't wait any longer. He reached out from the door frame and fired, knocking down the two people in front of him first. His people didn't appear in the corridor at all. Paul and the others immediately fired at the door of Jimmy's room. Because it was a training bullet, it did not penetrate the wall at the door. Jimmy retreated faster, so he was not shot at all.
The exercise used rubber bullets, and everyone wore bulletproof helmets. The face was made of transparent plastic, which did not affect breathing and vision, but could block the rubber bullets without causing any danger. So Jimmy's target was always the head, and he only needed one shot. It means that the other party has withdrawn from the exercise training.
The two people who were shot had already withdrawn from the fight. They put down their guns, turned around, walked to the end, and came to the stairs to watch the battle.
Paul and the others aimed at the door, moved over little by little, and successfully arrived at the side of the door. Jimmy didn't give them much chance. When they moved the gun line, he opened fire. Jimmy's nerve reaction speed is super fast now. When everyone slowly moved the gun line together, Jimmy found that they were shooting faster than Paul and the others, which also determined that it was Paul and the others who were shot.
Of course, after Jimmy fired, his position was focused on by the remaining people. This is the benefit of quick nerve response. Jimmy was not greedy. He fired two shots and retreated immediately. All the bullets were empty.
He was also bullying Paul and they did not prepare grenades and flash bombs during the exercise. As long as he was facing a gun, his nerve reflex speed was close to matching his current nerve movements, which ensured that as long as he was not greedy, he would definitely be able to shoot and return early.
Before they met, four people on Paul's side had been "killed", and only two people were left. Their mentality also collapsed, and they started short burst mode directly towards the corner where Jimmy had just hidden, and gradually moved forward towards the corner.
Jimmy didn't wait for them in the corner, but entered the small room inside, which should be the bedroom of a normal house.
He lay directly on the ground, holding the gun in both hands and aiming upwards. When the two people showed their heads in the corner, he kicked on the ground, slid his body a little outside, aimed his gun at the two people, and fired.
Jimmy did this the last time he killed a school shooter, but that time, in order to get farther into the classroom, he didn't lie down at the beginning, but kicked on the ground to speed up before sliding on the ground. There is no need to do this this time. As long as you are on the ground, you can avoid their gun line. This is the blind spot of normal people's thinking.
At this point, all six people were wiped out. Paul had already been "killed" at the door, and now he watched his men being killed like this without losing any temper.
Jimmy fired so fast that they were shot as soon as they noticed Jimmy's gun was exposed. Jimmy has all three of these: speed, reaction, and accuracy. In addition, the last blind spot in the field of vision, shooting from the ground, makes their reaction speed a little slower. There is nothing to say about this. They have carried out so many missions. No one shoots in this way.
Paul and the others put down their rifles, hung their gun belts on their bodies, and gathered in this room. Paul: "I'm convinced, Jimmy, your style of play is really unexpected."
Jimmy: "Hey, hey, it's just a little clever, that is, I am familiar with your action strategies to do this. If it were those desperadoes, they would definitely be sieved by you."
Paul: "Okay, you go out. We are protecting the hostages on the third floor. You come and assassinate them."
Jimmy nodded. He went directly downstairs to the equipment department and replenished the pistol magazine with bullets. There were two magazines, one main and one spare. Glock, this is the standard equipment of the FBI.
He did not fire a signal. Like Paul and the others, he approached downstairs from the side and entered the building through the main entrance. Jimmy had already seen their location. Two of them were on the second floor, and one was looking out of the window of the room on the third floor. He could clearly see Jimmy's movements when he entered the building, but he didn't shoot. This is a drill to get Jimmy in for sure. There are still three people in a room on the third floor. The locations of all six people are clear, and the rest is to be cleared from bottom to top.
Jimmy stayed on the first floor for a while, and then moved up the stairs from where they were against the wall in the same movement as Paul. Glock pointed at the top of the stairs. Although he knew the other person's position, he still had to complete the steps.
When he arrived at the stairway on the second floor, Jimmy walked directly towards the room where the two of them were staying, and waited at the door for a while. The person inside raised his gun and aimed at the door. Although he put on police boots, there was still a bit of footsteps. There were no other sounds in the simulation building, but the footsteps were very clear.
Jimmy first aimed at a person through the wall, dodged and fired, and immediately squatted down and fell to the ground, his body over the door frame, just enough to kill the second person.
After the two were shot, they released their guns, shook their heads and stood up. There is nothing to say. They aimed at the door in advance, but they were shot before shooting. This was the suppression of reaction speed, not the quality of their marksmanship. Comparable.
Jimmy stood up, smiled at them, said nothing, turned and left the room, preparing to go to the third floor. Here he directly discovered that there was a problem with the two of them in the room, but even if he pretended, there was no need to go to the extreme, because he had already made sure that no one saw his actions on the stairs and the corridor on the second floor.
When he came to the stairs, Jimmy started to go up to the third floor. The remaining four people were all on the third floor, and they were divided on the left and right sides. There was no choice. Let's get rid of the one who was watching alone at the window first.
A shot was fired on the second floor, and naturally all the people above heard it, so their actions now are very consistent, that is, everyone aims their guns at the door, while people hide nearby to minimize their exposure.
Jimmy threw a random piece of wood into the side of the room, then ducked and fired. In fact, he just tried to attract the attention of the people inside, but it had no effect. When Jimmy stepped out, the people inside also fired, but they did not hit Jimmy. One was due to shooting skills, and the other was because he felt that He stopped after he was shot, so he only fired two or three shots, and Jimmy's exposed area was very small. Under such conditions, it was normal for him to miss.
Turning around and walking towards the room with the three people on the other side, Jimmy didn't make any mess this time. He fired a few shots at their positions at random. This time he didn't aim deliberately, but took advantage of the shooting gaps to fire a few shots until he had two bullets. After the box was used up, Paul and the three of them were killed.
Paul stood up: "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Jimmy chuckled: "I'm out of bullets. I need to go down and replenish them."
Paul and the others were no longer in the mood to continue. If Jimmy hadn't started playing in the end, maybe they would have been defeated like the other three.
Jimmy dodged from the door and shot a bit fast. If it was a real battle scene, maybe shooting through the wall or near the door would put more pressure on Jimmy. But with training bullets, there is no pressure to be injured. Jimmy's kind of shooting The reality of the law makes them extremely uncomfortable.
