Chapter 22: The Supreme Arbitration Conference of the International Wizards (4)
"Don't look like that. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info what's going on today?" Phoenix said as he walked, "I don't want to be in the office all day. ”
"There is an interesting thing tonight, the former principal of the Makhtokolo School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Japan, Inoue Narumi, is going to give a speech at the Jazz Opera House. Billo came back to his senses and hurriedly said.
"The schools are bankrupt, what else do you want to do?"
"Raise funds to repay the loan and reopen the school. It is said that he made an agreement with several famous wizarding families in Japan. The new school will be more international and will not discriminate against foreign wizards and students from non-magical families. "Billo knows very well, and it seems that he wants Phoenix to listen to it," Mei Cheng, the principal of China's Chengjun School of Magic and Magic, will also be in attendance, and can be seen. ”
Phoenix stopped, scrutinizing Bilow, and asked what the point of meeting him was.
"Sungkyun is the oldest school in East Asia, and we all know each other. There are three families who take turns to sit in the headmaster position, and the people with foreign surnames are also their in-laws. This Mei Cheng has nothing to do with anyone, he was newly appointed two years ago. He was a brilliant astronomer, but he was not enough to hold an old prestigious school, both in terms of qualifications and abilities. He is just a product of compromise. None of the three wanted the rival to control and influence the school through the headmaster's position. When Mr. May himself visited Durmstrang last year, he met me. Maybe we can try it on him. ”
Hearing this, things are probably clear. To put it simply, Billo wants to instigate, an international school principal. The idea is good, the influence of the principals is enormous, and even in a future war, maintaining neutrality will help Peverell immensely.
However, the ideal is good, and the reality is almost impossible. Even if this headmaster, due to the special period, is a bit of a straw bag, he will not be stupid enough to look at it like this, the superiors and subordinates of the magic school will pay attention to his every move, and it is not good for him to join Peverell's side. Birlow is a bit whimsical.
"I have reservations, and if you wish to try, I have no objection. Phoenix groaned, "I'll go with you, but I'll not see him." ”
With that, he raised his head and looked at the sky.
"Sometimes, don't think too much about intrigues, you can't win a head-to-head duel, these little tricks don't make sense. ”
"Yes. ”
Billo chuckled inwardly, not knowing what Phoenix meant. Half of his request was agreed to in the front, and the back seemed to imply that his hand was too long, and it stands to reason that Watson or Mercedes should be responsible for this negative.
"What time does it start?"
"3 hours later. ”
They left the Anti-Apparition Zone, mainly because Bilow had no direct visibility here, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the Opera House in the middle of the city, not far from Peverell.
They came too early, and it wasn't even time for lunch. The reception staff was in a hurry and didn't know what to arrange, and the theater was not open at this time. In the end, they could only find a secluded corner at Phoenix's request.
He himself took out an old book and read it with relish. Billo directly called a few people to go next door to play cards.
The title of the book is very interesting, called "The Rise and Fall of Empires, the Integration of Empty Space". Written in the 1st century AD, it is a work of military theory. It pioneered air supremacy, which refers to the control of a belligerent party over a certain space at a certain time. With air supremacy, we will be able to restrict the combat activities of enemy organisms or flying objects, ensure the freedom of action of our own organisms or flying objects, and provide effective air cover for the combat operations of the army and navy.
At the beginning, the huge dragon army unique to Europe seized air supremacy, destroying any broomsticks or flying carpets that dared to take to the skies, and entangled the powerful wizards of the enemy - especially the wizards who could single-handedly take out the dragons. The Hippogriff and Thestrals then form a fast, low-altitude force to attack the remnants of the enemy forces that have been breathed by the dragon. If necessary, support the Fire Dragon Legion to intercept the enemy's powerful mages so that they cannot disengage from the current battle.
This was followed by a legion of ground magical creatures composed of Kemera and the human-headed sphinx, which broke through the enemy line from the front, followed by a mixed army of wizards and Muggles, quickly following up, and cooperating with the air force to destroy a large number of enemy living forces. Ground magical creatures take over the Fire Dragon Legion against the most powerful few wizards. Whether or not to launch in the end, killing the enemy's strongest wizard with all forces is at the discretion of the commander, and it is usually recommended to retreat.
A powerful wizard, the tactics of the sea of people are of little significance, only to increase casualties. Unless there is a wizard who is not much different from the level, retreat is the best. As for the methods of dealing with such wizards, they are not detailed in the book, and they are not important to the book.
Relying on this theory of invincibility, Peverell has been able to kill the world for a century. Only China and Peru can barely compete with each other, as they each quickly form their own dragon legions. Among them, China originally did not have a fire dragon, but relying on the excellent wizard quality at that time, the reverse development of the fire dragon was quickly completed.
The use of Australian Albumins and Hirchidiri Black Dragons is a hybrid, which is very suitable for military use Chinese Fireball Dragon, taking into account the docility of Australian Albumins and the ferocity and aggressiveness of the Hirchidiri Black Dragons.
Peverell has also tried to crossbreed better varieties of dragons, but has never been able to solve the problem of mass breeding of hybrids. For example, the Russian ice dragon and the Corsican elven dragon cannot be bred in large quantities, not to mention the high cost of artificial cultivation, and the number is not enough. On the battlefield, there are only a few of them, and when they meet a journeyman, they are wiped out in a few clicks.
After that, the Phantom Shifting Charm appeared, and the wizard's combat mobility was infinitely magnified. This set of theories is outdated, and the informal, non-large-scale mode of warfare dominates the battlefield of the wizarding world.
Mobile warfare, with attack as the main means, with a high degree of mobility, flexibility, initiative, offense and quick decision, became the main battle after the 14th century.
After reasonably choosing the place of operation, quickly deploying troops, reasonably choosing the timing of the battle, and sending the strongest wizard of your own side to directly raid the enemy's important areas alone, causing heavy casualties or losses to the enemy, quickly retreat.
The largest military force in the group, in groups of many people, attacks valuable targets everywhere. From herbal manors to hospitals, when the enemy's strength has been greatly weakened, they will concentrate superior forces and destroy the enemy.
This mode of battle takes a long time, especially if you are targeting a continent.
While reading the book, Phoenix pondered how to conduct war in the new era. After all, the Anti-Phantom Shifter Charm was an invention of the Secret Period. Through forceful means, Peverell confiscated almost all the house-elves in Europe and the United States - only one per family, and if you want to enjoy the services of house-elves all the time, you have to cooperate with other wizarding families, and it is difficult to increase the number. House-elves are not goblins, and are slow to reproduce - mainly for attacking areas with anti-illusion shifting spells, and if the situation calls for it, they can assign a house-elf to each family member.
At present, through the countermeasures of the house-elves, the anti-illusion disfigurement charm has brought the strategic situation back into balance.
"Phoenix. Love suddenly appeared in front of Phoenix, pulling him back from his deep thought, "We're done, we can have a meeting to discuss your strategic plan." ”
With a rare excitement on his face, Love said word for word.
