Chapter 1029 New Year's Snow Night (Part 9)
"Who can explain the current situation to me? Why are we surrounded by the police?" Alex asked in a low voice when Jack lowered the blinds again and came to his side to secretly look.
"Those are all black police. They are here to kill this guy and prevent him from appearing in court to expose the evidence." Jack explained the current situation in just one sentence.
"Damn Niang, damn Ni Ge, it's all because of you that we are implicated." Old police officer Jasper kept spewing out dirty words.
Bishop just sneered, "Those outside are all your colleagues, old man."
"Don't compare me with those bastards outside. If I were the one in charge here, I would have kicked you in the ass and kicked you out." Old police officer Jasper shot back without showing any weakness.
"Save some energy, don't waste time on saliva, this time they are serious, and now everyone here is their target to kill."
Sheriff Ronik seemed to have a problem of turning around in circles when he was nervous. He had walked back and forth four or five times in a while.
"I don't quite understand why?" Alice was still a little confused.
"Because now we are all insiders." John handed the Glock 17 with the gun number erased to Alice, "You can shoot, right?"
"I practiced at the shooting range for a while." As if to strengthen her persuasiveness, Alice took it, removed the magazine, pulled the slide to check the chamber, and then reset it. The action was not very skillful but satisfactory.
Jack handed the FN57 to Alex, "You should have received more than just first aid training when you went to the front line, right?"
Although this gun has good armor-piercing performance, the recoil is actually similar to the Glock series, and it is also suitable for women to use.
Alex followed Alice's example and tried again. She looked more skilled, and she obviously recognized those special military pistol bullets. She couldn't help wondering, "Is this your collection?"
"I guess so. I prepared a spare gun because I was going out with that guy. Now it seems that I'm not well prepared.
But I have to remind you that this is just a pistol armor-piercing bullet. It can't penetrate the bulletproof plate even at close range, so you either shoot the head or below the abdomen."
Jack's words made John feel wronged, and he waved his fist to protest.
"OK, let's do this." It seems that she was infected by the calm mood of the small group here. Sheriff Ronik, who kept turning around, finally had a plan, and of course, he made up his mind.
"I will assign the key positions that everyone needs to be responsible for. We must repel them and hold on here until dawn."
"Will there be reinforcements at dawn?" Alex's eyes lit up.
"No, the blizzard will dissipate at dawn, and this is a factory area. Although most of it is abandoned, there will always be workers coming to work nearby, so the other party can only retreat."
Ronik said, looking at the old police officer Jasper for support, but the other party kept staring at Bishop and didn't notice his gaze at all.
In the end, it was John who supported him, "You are the commander here, we listen to you." Jack thought about it and nodded slightly to agree.
To be honest, he looked down on this sheriff who had already lost his edge and wanted to be a civilian.
Jack didn't even need to read the psychological evaluation report that Alex gave him, and he could roughly guess what was written on it. The failed undercover operation brought Ronik not only PTSD, but also completely destroyed his confidence as a commander.
Perhaps even Ronik himself realized this. Although it was determined that there was nothing wrong with his judgment in that operation, the result was that both of his partners died.
Because it was he who gave the order to split up and chase, his two partners chased out without hesitation, but they both died under the guns of drug dealers.
Ronik would recall the scene over and over again, wanting to know whether he had made a mistake at the time, whether it was because of his tiny mistake that killed his partner.
This torture was painful. Whether he could find the answer or not, in the process, self-doubt had completely destroyed his self-confidence.
Just like he had recovered from his injuries and no longer limped when walking, but he still couldn't get rid of his dependence on painkillers.
Of course, none of this mattered for the time being. From the moment Ronik was willing to risk his life to rush out of the back door, he had already gained some trust from Jack.
This trust was not much, but it was enough for him to give up his original plan.
Originally, Jack planned to rush into the snow alone and drive Wushuang. At that time, he also thought that the people outside were gang members who came to rescue Bishop. Facing such a mob, he was fully confident that he could kill these people one by one under the cover of the blizzard.
When Jack learned that the other party was a legitimate Detroit policeman, and was a member of the "Anti-Black Group" that specializes in dealing with gang members, he hesitated.
He was not worried that he could not win, but worried that he would be attacked the moment he left, and that the scene of John being forced to show up with a gun pointed at his head would happen.
Since Ronik proposed to hold on, Jack thought he might as well hold on for a while and see what happened.
After all, this Police Station No. 13 is a product of the American industrial era in the last century. Although the wooden stairs leading to the second floor are creaking, it has solid reinforced concrete columns and beams, as well as brick walls that are several dozen centimeters thick.
As an old police station, almost every window here is equipped with a steel fence as thick as a thumb, which can be said to be easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Since everyone has reached a consensus, the sheriff Ronik took the initiative to arrange everyone's defense tasks.
With the weak candlelight, Ronik found a piece of white paper and drew a big "博" on it, which is the general shape of the police station.
The horizontal line at the bottom faces south, which is the main entrance of the police station and the lobby. Behind it is a separated office area.
At the corner of "博", there is a staircase leading to the second floor, and then there is a short corridor connecting the independent office behind, the temporary detention area.
After the temporary detention area, there is a storage room, which is the horizontal line at the top. Behind Jack and Ronik were behind the storage room, facing north.
"There are at least two snipers aiming at this place across the street from the front door, located on the top of the building in the southeast and southwest corners. After blocking the front door, everyone should stay away from the windows there as much as possible. Clear the furniture in the office area and use the space here to maneuver.
Jasper and Alice, you two are responsible for guarding here. Alex will take the injured Officer Jeffrey to find an office in the corridor to hide. The detention area will be handed over to Officer Nolan (John) and Agent Tavoler. That must be the opponent's key breakthrough point.
I will be responsible for guarding the back door alone. Is there any problem?"
It can be seen that Ronik has a clear understanding of his own combat effectiveness and left the most dangerous task to himself, but Jack has different ideas.
"There's no need to guard the back door. The enemy will go straight to the detention area when they come in. I can take care of that alone. Let John go to the front to help Jasper and Alice. You stay in the corridor and pay attention to the movement on the second floor, and then be ready to support both sides at any time."
"Are you sure?" Through the brief cooperation before, Ronik knew that this guy from the FBI should be the most powerful one among them, but seeing that he was taking on so much, he was still a little worried.
Others also looked a little skeptical, and in the end John stood on Jack's side with extraordinary determination.
"The guy in front of you can hit the observation window less than two inches at a distance of 40 yards with a pistol and blow up a person's head. If he thinks it's okay, then it must be okay."
"."
In the end, Bishop, who was standing aside, broke the silence of everyone, "Since you are short of manpower, why don't you give me a gun, Sheriff? At least we are on the same side now."
