Chapter 473: Hogwarts Council (3)
The sun comes out and shines in all directions
(omitted later)
When the breakfast time was over, all the people who had the meeting last night sat around the round table again with panda eyes in their heads.
Professor McGonagall, as the host, had to have the kitchen prepare a cup of strong coffee for everyone to refresh themselves.
A cup of strong coffee with ingredients went down, and everyone present suddenly trembled, and then cheered up one by one.
The group of people who cheered up immediately began to have a frank conversation and a full exchange of views.
Scrimgeour sighed, as an Auror who had been on the front line in his early years, although he had been sitting in the position of Minister of Magic for a long time, he was still very unaccustomed to such bladder negotiations.
Scrimgeour took a sip of the unspeakably bitter coffee in his cup, and the indescribable bitterness of the mouth made his whole body shiver, and then his brain became sober instead.
While the others were speaking, Scrimgeour whispered to Cedric, who was the secretary on the side, "Do you know the recipe for this coffee, I want to drink it in my office." ”
Cedric nodded quietly and said, "No problem, Your Excellency, you will be able to drink it the next time you return to the office." ”
As for the formula, Plug someone avoids talking about it.
There is only a difference in the division of labor in revolutionary work, and there is no distinction between high and low. Properly arranging their work according to the characteristics of all aspects is an important topic on the agenda of today's meeting.
However, the plan does not mention much about this part of the personnel arrangement, because after all, this kind of question involves the question of who should be placed in a position prone to heavy casualties, and it is easy to cause a rift when a large number of battle losses occur, so the plan only puts forward a principle of cooperating with the existing plan to destroy a large number of the enemy's living forces. As for who will go to those positions, you can do it yourself, and the plan will not be decided.
After listening to all sides, Scrimgeour thought for a moment and said, "Everyone, listen to me. ”
After everyone's attention was focused on himself, Scrimgeour said, "Next, our battlefield can be divided into two parts, Hogsmeade and beyond Hogsmeade. ”
Seeing that the others did not interject, he continued, "Here in Hogsmeade will be the main battlefield for the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, where they will fend off the attacks of the Death Eaters. ”
"However, as a result, there are very few Aurors who can travel to various parts of the UK to deal with emergencies."
"If the Ministry of Magic could only control the Hogsmeades, and the rest of Britain was left to the Death Eaters, our Ministry of Magic would be dead in name."
"And we've just put a lot of effort into building a national defense system, and if the wizards' calls don't get a response, then we're going to lose their support. I also don't want this system of great potential to die before it works. ”
At this time, Horatio Rodney, who heard Scrimgeeur's meaning, said: "We can take over the system......"
Before Mr. Rodney could finish his sentence, Scrimgeour gave him a "hehe".
If this system were in the hands of the British government, there would be few secrets in the wizarding society.
Seeing that his proposal was quickly rejected by the other party, Mr. Rodney didn't care, anyway, this proposal was just a temptation, and he then said without changing his face: "Or we can send someone to deal with the residents' reports, but we have not done enough to share intelligence." ”
"So I have a suggestion, and that is that some of us go to Hogsmeade to strengthen our defenses. This would allow some of the Aurors drawn from the defenses to be combined with our main force to form a team dedicated to dealing with the residents' alarms. That way, we'll have a strong team to wipe out the Death Eaters who come into sight of the residents. ”
With that, Mr. Rodney picked up the coffee cup in front of him and waited quietly for Scrimgeour's reply.
Scrimgeour pondered the feasibility of the proposal, if that were the case, the wizarding society would still be exposed to friendly forces, and the difference between wearing a bikini and nothing would be the difference between someone taking over the entire system.
"I think it's feasible to do this, and it's necessary to organize such a team." At this time, Harley suddenly said, "Now that the Death Eaters are large in number and strong, we can't completely eliminate them in one or two battles." ”
"So we can rely on this national joint defense system, and as soon as we receive the alarm, we will dispatch superior forces to eliminate the lone Death Eaters."
"In this way, we can continue to annihilate the dark wizards who joined the Death Eaters through countless small annihilation battles. In this way, we can accumulate small victories into big victories, and achieve the goal of strategically consuming the Death Eaters. If we persevere, we will be able to turn the situation in our favor. ”
The corners of Mr. Rodney's mouth twitched a little, and he was familiar with such a tactic. Although he had never been to the Korean Peninsula, he had studied various war examples. It's just that due to the inertia of thinking, he didn't think of using such tactics in the domestic security war.
I have to say that the tactic of "knocking kraft candy" is very much in line with the situation they are currently facing, especially after he discovered the "bloodletting" trap in this plan in the early hours of this morning. This depletion of the enemy's strength while preserving one's own strength to the maximum extent possible is an excellent option to reduce or even avoid the final "bloodletting".
With this in mind, Mr. Rodney said to Scrimgeur, "Mr. Scrimthour, I think Potter is ...... This tactic of the gentleman works. ”
Scrimgeour also saw the advantages of being able to save himself to destroy the enemy, so he nodded and said, "I also agree with Potter's method, then we will jointly organize a mobile force to carry out this plan." ”
John Clark, the captain of the "Rainbow Squad", who has not been involved in the internal dispute in the United Kingdom, as the representative of the International Aurors, said at this time: "I and our team members can also join this team, and we can go as a reserve team to support when we need support." ”
Scrimgeour nodded, and agreed that after the meeting, the three parties would refine the details of the plan separately before arranging another group of people.
"Mr. Lupin, I suggest that your next mission for the Order of the Phoenix is to protect Hogwarts and Potter, as well as gather and pass on information." Scrimgeour said to Lupin, "You have an advantage in that. ”
Lupin knew that Hallie was the biggest card Dumbledore had left behind, and that Dumbledore had written the last letter to the Order of the Phoenix in his last letter to the Order of the Phoenix, saying that he and Blake would return to teach at Hogwarts next semester to protect Harry. So Lupin agreed to Scrimgeur's suggestion after thinking about it for a while.
The Hogwarts side is the best arrangement, Hogwarts Castle and its surroundings have been laid out in advance over the years, and Professor McGonagall only needs to strictly guard the gate to ensure the safety of the students in the school.
After arranging the work of all parties, it was time for lunch. After everyone had packed up their notebooks and other stationery and papers, Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and the next moment the round table was filled with a sumptuous lunch.
