Chapter 468: Hogsmeade's First Anti-Encirclement and Suppression (2)

Zhang has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and his ability to observe words and emotions is still not low. Seeing a few people at the scene, he immediately realized that something was wrong, so he immediately got up and went out to help prepare dinner. After all, he and the people in front of him are not familiar enough to make some over-the-top jokes, and it is their business to play with each other, so it is a little inappropriate for him to participate, and he is no longer the minor he was two years ago.

Half an hour later, the five people in the café sat around the table, eating pasta and exchanging things about what had happened to both sides today.

When Scrimgeour arrived at Hogsmeade from Hogwarts, officials and staff from the Ministry of Magic began to move in.

After getting the news, these people in the café reported it to their superiors as soon as they got the news.

Soon, after a lapse of nearly four hundred, the pig's head bar became the headquarters again.

Next, orders were sent from the pig's head bar to all parts of the UK.

"Hogsmeade, rich in people and goods, west of Hogwarts, east of the vast forbidden forest, north of the high mountains and dangerous land, south of the railway direct, especially the national town. At the beginning of the war, the Ministry of Magic made the first decision and moved to the office. Prepared for more than twenty years. The people of Britain, who share the same hatred and hatred of the enemy, are dedicated to relieving difficulties, and are unswerving, building a foundation for resisting demons and praising the great cause of the country. ”

At the same time, the Death Eaters also telegraphed the Ministry of Magic around the world, and the British Ministry of Magic had been taken over by them, and a new magical government had been formed.

For a while, from the officials of the Ministry of Magic to the vendors in Diagon Alley, they all fell into the choice of taking sides. Those who defected to Hogsmeade to go to the national disaster, those who remained neutral and waited for the changes, those who began to show their loyalty to Voldemort, and those who hid at home and shivered at a loss, different wizards made their own choices at this time.

Soon, the Aurors arrived at Hogsmeade and began to set up security.

Most of the leading cadres and staff of the Ministry of Magic at all levels went to the Pig's Head Bar to report, and for the rest of the time, the room upstairs of the Pig's Head Bar was the office of the Minister of Magic, Scrimgeur, and the lobby on the first floor was a large conference room.

Voldemort's reaction was not slow, and after learning that almost all of the Ministry of Magic had been transferred to Hogsmeade, he sent people to the Burrow to capture Harry Potter, and personally led a team to Hogsmeade to encircle and suppress the remnants of the former Ministry of Magic.

Just as Scrimgeour and the others were settling their ground, Voldemort arrived with the Death Eaters.

There was no nonsense on both sides, and they fought each other at the first time.

The Aurors relied on Hogsmeade's newly established system of defensive magic that they were not familiar with, and they were able to fend off the Death Eaters' attacks.

At this moment, several of the Death Eaters' shadows that had been lurking in Hogsmeade suddenly began to move, and they began to create chaos in the village of Hogsmeade in an attempt to meet the outside world.

However, the Death Eaters were unable to make much of a storm, and after injuring a few people and two cats, they were pinned to the ground by the government forces who came to support them.

"So you're fully involved in this side of the matter this time?"

After a simple dinner, Zhang Xu sat on the sofa and asked.

Wales, who had the highest epaulette rank among the four, said seriously: "Yes, from today onwards, we will provide all-round assistance to the Ministry of Magic." In the meantime, we will cut off all communication with the Mysterio authorities. ”

Zhang Xu picked every day and said, "So, they can't buy food, salt, cloth and other necessities directly from you?" ”

"Including but not limited to these." Wales said as he sipped his tea.

Zhang Xu frowned, he still wanted to get the meaning behind this matter, so that in the eyes of conservative wizards, the Ministry of Magic had actually compromised with the Muggle government in exchange for support.

After all, the Muggle government had always been "whoever was in the Ministry of Magic was supporting", and they had never been involved in the fight in the Ministry of Magic, and had never ended up like this.

The Ministry of Magic has done this at once, and there is a lot of power to offend conservative wizards.

Zhang Xu leaned back on the sofa, his fingers kept tapping on the armrest, and then the whole person fell into a big wave of contemplation. Now the situation is complicated, and the struggle they face before destroying Voldemort is complicated. The importance of political struggle is no less than that of military struggle, and economic struggle may be fought during the period. It wasn't the place to think about it, though, so he quickly came out of his musings.

After asking a few questions that were not very sensitive, Zhang Xu asked them, "So what are your plans next?" ”

"What, don't you worry about a few of us?" Nelson, who was on the side, winked at Zhang Xu.

"It's not." Zhang Xu shook his head and said, "If your store is not open, then the VIP card in my hand will be useless?" ”

Rodney, who came back with a bottle of red wine, almost missed and beckoned the bottle to Zhang's head.

"Would you like a drink?" Rodney asked Zhang Xu after putting the red wine and wine glass on the coffee table.

"Another day." Zhang Xu said.

Fireflies lit up the starlight of the night and flowed into the moonlight, rippling slightly.

Moonlit Hogsmeade was not at peace, with squads of Aurors patrolling the streets, and the heads of various departments of the Ministry of Magic moving into the rented house where they would spend the next few days going to work.

Some of the people here are full of passion for what they are about to achieve, while others are gray and have no future in sight.

Mr. Delacour walked the streets of Hogsmeade, carefully observing every detail of the place. As the director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation of the French Ministry of Magic, he happened to be in England to witness the coup d'état, and he was sent by the French Ministry of Magic to visit the British Ministry of Magic in the north, on the one hand, to convey support from the French side to the British side, and on the other hand, to make a comprehensive assessment of the current situation in the United Kingdom.

Similar to his mission are fellow Lady Adams and Yuri. After informing their respective countries' magical departments of the situation in Britain as quickly as possible, they were officially authorized to come as envoys to inquire for more detailed information.

Not long after the three of them walked into Hogsmeade under the leadership of the Aurors who led the way, they saw Zhang Xu walking out of the alley next to the main road while talking on his mobile phone.

On the phone, the relevant leaders of the embassy sent a domestic order, ordering Zhang Xu to rush to the Ministry of Magic as soon as possible, and then as a special envoy to express condolences to the British Ministry of Magic on behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
