Arms starts with hyenas in the Middle East

Chapter 414 The assassination was successful
The last time Sean was talking about was the time when he asked Simon to kidnap Prince William’s wife and children.

"I understand. I won't let the Boss down."

Simon's expression returned to calm. Not to mention that Sean promised that he didn't need to do it, even if he really needed to do it, he would do it. He was no longer a soldier of the Royal Boat Squadron. His former glory and oath had been sealed up with the annihilation of their team.

"Listen, if Taylor fails and is captured alive, find a way to shut him up!"

Sean stood up and walked to Simon, putting his hands on his shoulders and speaking in a heavy tone.

This was the real reason why he sent Simon over. Assisting Taylor was just a superficial reason. What was really important was not to give Taylor any chance to reveal Sean and the RFG Group.

Swish!
Simon's heart trembled, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Sean, then he returned to normal and replied in a deep voice: "Okay!"

"Okay, let's go and rest."

After Simon left, Evelyn hugged Sean from behind and asked, "Is this... really okay?"

"We must always prepare for the worst. Before anything succeeds, we must first prepare for failure, so that we won't be too passive. Just imagine, if Taylor is caught, whether the assassination succeeds or fails, I will definitely be on the must-kill list of the British Empire."

Sean shook his head. This result was just the worst-case scenario. If Taylor could successfully escape, everyone would be happy.

……

Kensington Palace, west London.

"Honey, remember to come back early."

At the door of the luxurious room, Princess Kate straightened Prince William's collar, hugged him tenderly for a while and then said.

"Of course I will."

Prince William kissed Kate on the forehead and left with a smile. Today is the 11th anniversary of their acquaintance, so he turned down all unnecessary activities. However, there are still some things that he needs to deal with at Windsor Castle, otherwise he will work directly at Kensington Palace and spend a good day with Kate.

Outside Kensington Palace, a fleet of luxurious vehicles was already waiting there, with a bulletproof Bentley Flying Spur in the center, which is one of Prince William's exclusive cars and the one he uses most often.

Just to tell you a joke, the car he used most often before was actually the Land Rover Discovery, but just recently, this bulletproof Bentley Flying Spur worth 25 pounds became his most frequently used car, and his family also moved to Kensington Palace to live permanently. It can be seen that Sean's last revenge made him feel warned.

Although there are many tourists outside Kensington Palace, which seems to give assassins an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, the security system inside is actually very professional and powerful. It is extremely difficult for an assassin to sneak in. Basically, there is no need to worry about assassinations. It is much safer than their residence, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk.

The road from Kensington Palace to Windsor Castle is like a journey from the hustle and bustle of the city to the tranquility of the countryside. There are no dense buildings along the way, but instead a vast expanse of countryside where the sun never sets. The convoy is driving on the winding road, with lush fields on both sides. The countryside scenery can always calm people's restless hearts.

On the round tower of St. George's Chapel in the middle of Windsor Castle, Taylor observed the entrance and exit of Windsor Castle through the 200-5.5x22 NXS scope on the M56 high-precision sniper rifle, quietly waiting for the appearance of prey.

The M200 high-precision sniper rifle, officially named CheyTacM200 sniper rifle, is a high-precision sniper rifle produced by CheyTac Tactical Company of the United States.

The CheyTacM200 sniper rifle is a bolt-action sniper rifle that uses a bolt action and is equipped with a retractable buttstock with a folding rear tripod and a cheek rest. The main purpose of the CheyTacM200 sniper rifle is to intercept soft targets at long distances. It uses a 7-round detachable single-row magazine and fires .408 CheyTac or .375 CheyTac bullets. According to CheyTac documents, the entire system can hit an accuracy smaller than a 2286mm coin at a distance of up to 4 meters, making it the longest range of all modern sniper rifles. The M200 sniper rifle has powerful kinetic energy, and its bullets can fly at supersonic speeds at 2000 meters.

The M200 high-precision sniper rifle is one of the top three high-precision sniper rifles in the world. Of course, the price is not cheap, as high as 21000 US dollars. And this is just the price of the bare gun. What is really expensive is its bullet.

$18.5 per shot!
What does this mean? According to the current exchange rate, it is RMB 143.7 per shot!
As we all know, the bullet of the domestically produced CS/LR4 high-precision sniper rifle is only 50 RMB per round, and this thing is more than twice as much. The difference is obvious when compared.

Once you get the sniper rifle, let's not even talk about the cost of installing the scope. If you go to a gun store to install it, it will cost at least $600. After installing the scope, you need to calibrate the gun first. It doesn't mean that you can use it and shoot accurately after you get it. A very professional sniper will basically calibrate it with about five bullets. In other words, it costs about $92 just to calibrate the gun, which is equivalent to nearly RMB . This is one of the reasons why few people buy this gun and its sales volume is very low. It is too expensive. Of course, another reason is that the accuracy of the high-precision sniper is too high, and maintenance is also very troublesome. It is a technical job, and its bullets are also very delicate.

Many people think that the sights can just be screwed on, but this is not actually the case. If you screw them on yourself, you will never be able to calibrate the gun. In fact, professional tools are required.

First, you need a professional gun stand to secure the gun. Then you need a professional level so that you can adjust the gun to a completely horizontal state. Then you can install the bridge of the scope, and then you need another level. After putting the scope on, you need another level. In other words, it must be completely horizontal. The slightest deviation will not work. Even a deviation of 0.1 mm will make it inaccurate. Moreover, the screws on the scope require professional torque tools. There are standard requirements for what kind of screws you have, how thick the scope strip is, and how much torque you need. A little more or less will not work.

This is a technical job. A slight mistake can result in a difference of more than just a kilometer.

If you just screw it on with a screwdriver, then the gun cannot be calibrated with just a few dollars, and you will never be able to calibrate it in your lifetime. Fortunately, the RFG Group has no shortage of these things, so the extra money is not necessary.

This is the weapon Sean specially prepared for Taylor for this mission. After all, William is a prince, and a prince should be treated like a prince. Everything should be treated with the highest etiquette. There is no way, Sean is such a thoughtful person.

At this time, Simon was praying in the prayer room of St. George's Church like everyone else. Today is Thursday. St. George's Church is open to the public from 10 am to 4 pm from Monday to Saturday. At this time, many foreign tourists and local residents are also praying in the church. This is why the two were able to sneak in so smoothly.

Taylor was responsible for sniping William in the garden tower, while Simon was responsible for supporting him in St. George's Church. Of course, this was only on the surface. His main task was to try his best to ensure that Taylor would not be caught after he succeeded. If he was caught, Simon would have to kill him in the chaos and shut him up completely.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Taylor was like a very patient hunter, not impatient at all, but focused. Suddenly, he was alerted. A team of luxury cars drove into the gate of Windsor Castle, and the bulletproof Bentley Flying Spur in the middle allowed Taylor to identify the target instantly.

The convoy slowly drove into Windsor Castle and headed towards the main body of the castle. Taylor's eyes followed the movement. The round tower of St. George's Chapel was in a very good location. It was the tallest building except for the main building of Windsor Castle, and the view was very wide. The convoy stopped outside the main body of the castle. Taylor instantly perked up and focused his attention. He pulled the bolt to load the gun, turned off the safety, and slowly placed his right index finger on the trigger. He put the Bentley Flying Spur in the frame and silently calculated the distance between the two sides, wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure and other environmental factors, and adjusted the ballistic sight bit by bit.

The car door opened, and several of William's bodyguards stood in extremely sophisticated positions to protect him. At this time, it would be too difficult to shoot, and the probability of missing was very high. Taylor only had one chance. If he missed, he would definitely not have a second chance to shoot and could only escape immediately. After William had been assassinated, the security around him would only become more stringent, and the difficulty of a second assassination would increase exponentially. So in the end Taylor chose to release the trigger, turn on the safety again, and make the gun unable to fire, and watched William enter the castle under the protection of the bodyguards.

"Ghost, the target is obscured and cannot be sniped. It has entered the castle."

Taylor pressed the flesh-colored invisible special earphone on his ear and reported, then continued to stare at the entrance of the main castle. Since the target had already entered the castle, what he had to do now was to wait patiently until William came out of the castle. After the door opened, the moment William came out, his figure would be more exposed, and that would be the easiest time to succeed.

"Ghost received, continue to wait, keep silent."

Simon, who was praying in the church's prayer room, responded through the wireless microphone and continued to pray like everyone else, without showing any abnormality due to the response.

It is very normal for snipers to encounter such situations when performing missions, especially when performing assassination missions. Sometimes it is normal to lie there for two or three days. As a sniper, Simon naturally understands the occurrence of such situations. For an excellent sniper, the most indispensable thing is patience.

In other words, if you want to become a sniper, the first thing you need is not how accurate your shooting is, but patience and a strong heart that can endure long periods of loneliness. This is the first element. Without this, no matter how good your shooting skills are, even if you can use machine aiming to hit targets a thousand meters away like in the legendary TV series, it is useless. At most, you can become an accurate shooter in a team, but you cannot become a sniper.

Marksmanship is never the most respected thing for snipers, because it can be trained. To put it bluntly, as long as you are willing to feed him with bullets, even an idiot can become a sharpshooter. But patience and the tolerance threshold for loneliness are innate and rely on talent. If you have it, you have it. If you don't have it, no matter how much you practice, you can't achieve that effect.

The simplest example is that you can never make a person with ADHD stop moving. Even if you point a gun at his head, he will not be able to help but move. This kind of thing cannot be controlled. If you try to control it by force, he will only be driven crazy.

You don’t need talent to be a marksman, but you do need talent to be a sniper.

Time passed minute by minute. Simon had been praying in the church for four hours. On the round tower, Taylor tore open a piece of chocolate and put it in his mouth to replenish his energy.

At this time, William had a sumptuous lunch in the church.

It was not until 3:30 in the afternoon that the main gate of the castle was opened again. Taylor instantly concentrated, turned off the safety, calculated the data and adjusted the trajectory. If he missed this opportunity, the difficulty would undoubtedly increase greatly. William did not come to Windsor Castle to work every day. He was in Kensington Palace most of the time, and there were no suitable vantage points around Kensington Palace, so the difficulty of assassination was extremely high.

The two bodyguards walked out first, and then William stepped out, and this position just left a little space that could be used.

Taylor held his breath, put his finger through the guard and placed it on the trigger, then slowly pulled the trigger.

boom!
When the gunshot rang out, William's body shook, a stream of blood spurted out from his heart, and then he fell down limply.

"Protect the prince!" "Sniper!" "Damn it!"

Several bodyguards instantly blocked the blind spot around Prince William and protected him as he entered the castle.

On the round tower, Taylor calmly took off the scope on the M200 sniper rifle, then turned and left, taking off his headphones as well.

Since the gun is too long and large, it is troublesome to take it away, so the only option is to abandon it. What is needed at this time is a quick evacuation, and it is obviously unwise to take the gun with you.

As for why I wanted to take the sniper scope away, one reason is that this thing is relatively small in size, light in weight, and easy to carry.

At this time, because of the gunshots, the church was the closest, and the believers and tourists who were praying inside, as well as priests and the like, naturally heard the gunshots and were immediately thrown into chaos. Fortunately, there were not too many people at this time, and although it was very chaotic, there was no stampede. After Taylor came down, he took advantage of the chaos to blend into the crowd and quickly left.
