Chapter 1863: Small Steps and Big Goals

Hermione's previous efforts to preserve the port of Weymouth under the onslaught of the living corpses had finally paid off.

Because of the continuous support of some major members of the Alliance, as well as the careful planning of Hermione, Lady Maxime, Percy and others, the first batch of wizarding alliances formed after the official establishment of the Resistance Alliance finally began to move towards the fallen land of Britain.

And the reason why these wizards were able to settle down in the south of England very smoothly was because of the "Weymouth Camp", the entrance to the passage that had already laid out all the protective measures, and Harry and others as the vanguard to successfully ensure sufficient territory space.

As one of the operators of this plan, Hermione obviously put a lot of effort into it, but ...... At least it all seems to be worth it.

"Please note that at present our main body is still limited to the southern coast of England - as you know, we cannot disillusion in this fog, so that our lack of mobility, both in whole and in part, is likely to be a fatal factor......"

Not so long ago, the large tent at Weymouth Camp as a makeshift command post seemed somewhat empty, but now there were a dozen more people at once. These are elite wizards selected by Hermione and Maxim to lead the battle, and they will each lead a medium-sized team and be on standby according to the plan.

However, it is worth mentioning that it was not Hermione, Lady Maxime, or Blois's housekeeper who were talking in front of the map at this time, but Percy Weasley, who had been in charge of various front-line intelligence information on the camp for a while.

He paused, and then continued:

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Although we have more men this time, we will not be able to outnumber Helbo's army of living corpses. Therefore, we must always be cautious...... Before we can confirm the full situation in this fog, we must leave a way out and not go too deep. ”

"But...... Of course, while we need to be cautious, we must not abandon even the most basic confidence. Percy said, glancing at Hermione, who was sitting not far away, and then pointed to a red circle marked on the map, "The city of Birmingham, the heart of England, will be our first target once the situation is thoroughly confirmed." If we can find a way to establish ourselves here, then whatever Helbo is going to do, it will make him feel very uncomfortable. ”

It may seem contradictory at first to say that the main body is placed on the southern coast and to point out the destination of "Birmingham", which is located in the absolute depths of the fog.

However, this was the big goal that Hermione and Percy decided to work with...... In this regard, the two of them naturally have good reasons to choose.

First of all, it was the recent arrival of Hogwarts, which let Hermione know that there was already a "friendly army" in the north of England that could provide some support;

Secondly, Harry's trip to Winchester didn't go smoothly from start to finish, but it made Hermione know that Maca, who was the most intimidating to Helbo, was near London, stuck in his throat.

In such a situation, Hermione certainly had reason to make up her mind to bring Birmingham, a key location not far from London, but closer to the north than London, under her control.

To be honest, she really doesn't know what Maca is going to do now, but she still has full confidence in Maca's strength. With Maca firmly eyeing Helmpo himself at close range, this is an opportunity!

Seeing Percy explain the general direction of the whole plan quite freely in front of her, Hermione couldn't help but nod her head secretly - it seemed that Percy, who had always been personable, might be better suited to do such a job than herself.

But the problem now is that the news of the surprise attack of the living corpses in the old town of Winchester has not yet reached this side.

Because if Hermione had known that Helmo and Maca hadn't personally taken action in that attack, she probably wouldn't even have had the plan to land this group of wizard allies, let alone go to Birmingham City.

After all, that means that Helmo and Maca may not be moving each other again anytime soonβ€”that is, Helmo may still have the possibility of freeing his hands to reach out elsewhere!

"Okay, let's go to the stationing points of our respective squadrons to get acquainted with each other according to the previous assignment! If you have any questions, remember to submit a report in time to deal with them...... Disband! ”

Before he could finish speaking, Percy clapped his hands, which allowed the wizards of different genders, ages, and origins in the tent to leave the temporary command post, leaving only Hermione, Harry, Ron, Ginny, and the others...... and Madame Maxim, who has come here to observe today.

"Guys, did I just behave okay?" Percy spread his hands and said, "Didn't you miss anything and forgot to talk about it?" ”

"No problem, you're doing a great job!"

Madame Maxim, who was tall and tall, stood up from the last row of her seats, applauded him, and said:

"I can't imagine that there are people like you, Mr. Weasley, why haven't I noticed it before? If you were in the past, you would have been the best fit to go to the Ministry of Magic! ”

Maxim's original intention was naturally to praise Percy, but unfortunately, her words happened to poke Percy's sore spot. He had done something stupid and wrong, but he had suffered enough for himself, so that his magical strength had not yet returned to its normal level.

"Oh! That's because Percy used to be relatively low-key," Ron put his arm around his shoulder, patted him and smiled, "but it doesn't matter, isn't he stepping up at this critical time?" Moonlight grass always shines at night! ”

"When are you going to use such nice words to coax people again?"

Percy pursed her lips and pushed him aside in disgust.

"I didn't learn it from Luna yet!"

Ron shrugged his shoulders, but didn't notice that Hermione couldn't help but be stunned again when she heard him mention Luna.

"Alright, it's time for us to continue patrolling the perimeter," Harry beckoned Neville, "and if we can't do any of this, we'll have to leave it to Percy and Hermione!" ”

With that, they greeted Madame Maxim and left the tent in a hurry. Soon, it was quiet again.

"Miss Granger?" Maxim called her, "Then I have to go back to Belgium too, is there anything I need to do on your side?" ”

"No more ......" Hermione subconsciously replied before reacting, "Oh no, there's one more thing!" Mrs. Trouble went to tell Mr. Butler, and said...... I would like to know about the situation of those who had settled in France earlier – rest assured, you should understand what you said. ”
