For a long time, the top families of the wizarding world were confused, and although they had their own opinions, they had their own opinions on how to establish a new world order. No one knows who disrupted their plans, and the attack and the chaos it caused directly hit all the big families.

Neither the meticulousness of the plan nor the way it was executed was something that a wizard could think of and do. Even families like Peverell, who were already wary of Muggle weapons, didn't expect that as long as the nuclear yield was large enough, it could be activated around the Ministry of Magic and destroy all buildings within a radius.

Who did it, what did they do, and how should they deal with it?

I'm afraid it's one thing that most wizarding families are scratching their heads.

To put it in a slightly cold-blooded way, wizards have suffered far less losses than Muggles in this catastrophe, with only the Ministry of Magic being hit hard and a few wizarding colonies destroyed. However, the reality is more complicated, the Ministry of Magic is the successor of the Wizarding Council, the recognized law enforcement and legislature, and the representative of order.

The destruction of the Ministry of Magic means that order has retreated, and chaos has occurred. Crimes such as robbery and homicide occur everywhere, but no one controls them. People can only cooperate with their neighbors and be wary of any outsiders. This is just the beginning, and when the panic is over, more and more people will realize that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

From this point of view, their purpose should still be the old-fashioned struggle for power and profit. The old Ministry of Magic has been destroyed, and in the intervening period before the new order is established, all careerists are gearing up for a big fight.

This is almost unambiguous.

Here's how to deal with it. Generally speaking, it is necessary to purge effective information from intelligence and information, but it can also drown people in a sea of information.

Phoenix's strategy is the exact opposite. He did not use any intelligence information, but directly started with the most basic and fundamental problems. Fortunately, Phoenix has a lot of cards in his hand, especially a very important resource in troubled times.

What is the most important thing in troubled times? Talents, resources, strategies and tactics, everyone will have a different answer. But for wizards, the only thing that can be controlled is resources. The ability to strategically plan is a wizard's weakness, not that wizards are dumber than Muggles, but that any strategic plan cannot be kept secret for wizards. Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, wizards have a way to crack it, so the wizard's face is very degenerate.

Talent is extremely uncontrollable, purely a matter of luck.

All that's left is resources. In the Wizarding Wars, the most important resource is undoubtedly the various healing potions. In a real wizarding war, no one would use a killing curse, or any spell that would directly kill them. It's too dangerous, it's too easy to get hurt by mistake.

A battle on the scale of the Battle of Hogwarts is nothing more than a small fight.

Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people gathered together, and there was not much guarantee in the flying spell that it would hit the enemy. Chronic lethal spells are the first choice, and as a result, healers and medical resources are in high demand. Come to think of it, it is possible that a person will need a dozen different potions to cure a spell, and when the number of wounded is expanded, the amount of potions needed is simply astronomical.

With a family as a unit, it is impossible to save or leave the wounded to fend for themselves. If the scale is sufficient, just one or two battles will suffice, and let a family withdraw, unless they are willing, to die in the wailing of their loved ones.

This is the difference between a top family like Peverell and other big families, they have enough resources to treat the wounded, and the gap will widen as the war lasts.

So the most important thing is to cut off all the magic ingredients from the market. Peverell doesn't have the power to wipe out all the herb estates and farms at the source, but there's one thing they can control, and that's currency. Cutting off the circulation of money, the magical society will return to the period of barter.

After Phoenix's explanation, he slowly pushed himself away from the conference table with one foot on the leg of the table, looking like he was out of the way. Most of the people present at the meeting were not too happy, but looked solemn. It is not surprising that cutting off the currency means that the goblins, in the name of rebellion, would need to confiscate all property at Gringotts and terminate all services. At this point, it is dangerous. There are no wizards in the world, and intelligent beings such as goblins and vampires all want to occupy the current position of wizards. Letting the goblins start a rebellion is likely to lead other races to wage war against humans, and then the situation will become more complicated, and the goblins are likely to simply fake it.

Vampires, in particular, are in a completely different environment from the goblins, they have never challenged the wizards, at least not openly and directly, so that the wizards have no control over them at all, and the vampires can wait for the world to be chaotic enough before cleaning up the wizards.

Secondly, bartering is different from buying and selling, and does not use any money as a tool for trading, so bartering is not necessarily an equivalent exchange. Some families that are inferior to Peverell, but have more social resources than ordinary wizard families, can take advantage of the situation, and how to deal with them when the time comes is another question.

"It's too risky to get there yet. Billo cleared his throat, "Once things start, there's no going back." If they do so, those families, with the resources at their disposal, can completely withdraw from the current chaotic situation. They have enough manpower to maintain herb farms and farms, and someone can refine potions for the family, make some magical items, and then trade with other families, which will form a new social environment. Maybe it will leave us out. ”

"They can't do it. Mercedes scoffed at Bilo's views.

"It's not anything, it can be solved with violence. Billo said to her, "You're the head of the military, but you should serve the family's overall strategy, not —"

"Enough," Phoenix said sternly.

Mercedes, who was just about to get up, sat down slowly and hatefully.

"I'm not doing this to give us an advantage. The others raised their eyebrows sharply, "Don't hold on to it, we have an advantage, we have a lot of cards in our hands, as long as we play well, we will win, this arrogant idea is dangerous for us." Phoenix lit a cigarette and held out three fingers, "The three laws of war: first, find the enemy, second, strike at the enemy, and third, save yourself." We can't even do the first point. There's no doubt that after my plan begins, the world — oh, it's a bit complacent to say that, but I think that once we do that, the rest of the region won't be indifferent, or we can use the already useless Galleons and get a huge amount of resources from them for nothing - everyone will be thrown into the arena, ordinary wizard families, and if they want to make a difference, they will have to eat other wizarding families and plunder their resources in order to be competitive. Large families need to expand their power while holding on to their own resources. It's like a feast with only one seat, and the people who want to eat the feast need to get rid of the other participants first, and we are waiting for them at the door of the feast. This is not an advantage, there should not be many families who survive after screening, but it is definitely not easy to defeat. ”

"You, aren't you thinking about it?" Billo struggled, he was undoubtedly the biggest loser. After losing the position of Gringotts, according to the regulations, he can only become an alternate candidate for other positions in the family, even if he is the first candidate, considering the war period and personnel changes, in fact, it will not wait long.

"You should be in the service of the family strategy. Mercedes gave a sarcastic smile.
