A Magical Hogwarts - Vol 7 Chapter 3
Voldemort was in the first place, sitting north facing south, playing with snakes in a leisurely manner… the “cute” rune that teased him.
At his feet, there was a crystal clear bucket, which contained Qasim’s corpse.
The Dark Lord picked up a delicate dagger and fiddled with the corpse at will.
The blade cut open the chest cavity, he provoked the still warm heart, and threw it to the already very fat snake.
The smell of blood permeated the hall, and all the Death Eaters could smell it, but they didn’t dare to speak, they could only feel a chill in their hearts.
He was one of his own. He killed him just because he failed the mission, and he cut flesh to feed snakes piece by piece…
In the opinion of many Death Eaters:
Never mind Voldemort and Grindelwald, who has the bigger picture, but in terms of cruelty, Grindelwald is definitely a younger brother.
Voldemort wanted this kind of shocking effect, he narrowed his cold eyes, and his eyes landed on the ground a little further away.
It was a huge picture of the confrontation situation in Britain, more than two meters in length and width, spread out below the steps.
London, the Ministry of Magic, Diagon Alley, Hogwarts… all the important cities and regions, are on it.
There are also several arrows, coming from a strip of water in France, Italy in the distance, as well as Switzerland, Austria… across the sea.
It is clearly marked:
European Wizarding Forces.
In addition to geography, there are also all the main field forces such as giants and werewolf corps, which are also marked near certain stations.
The whole form of the UK is in full view!
Roose Bolton is called “skinned” by many people, but he feels that the Dark Lord is the real old “skinned”.
However, this thought just flashed in his mind. He stood by the map and continued to report:
“According to current information, the Ministry of Magic will launch a summer offensive, and the commander is said to be Stark.”
For this information, most Death Eaters were not too surprised.
At the end of June, Dumbledore gave the newly graduated Stark a boost and suggested that he replace Wizengamore.
Although he is young, regardless of his fame, strength, prestige and official position, he is enough to serve as the commander-in-chief of a war.
Therefore, what everyone cares more about is the battlefield location.
Roose Bolton held his wand and pointed to a remote corner of the map.
“The battlefield will be placed here—”
“The Hebrides!”
Hearing the name of the island, many pure-blood wizards let out a sigh of relief, as long as it is not near their home.
There were even those who looked at Jaehaerys McFasty maliciously.
The Hebrides are sparsely populated and remote, but they are famous in the magical world.
Because there, there is one of the British native dragons – the Hebrides black dragon.
And this archipelago has been guarded by McFasty for generations, and they are also the famous dragon knights.
Last year, Jaehaerys McFasty took refuge in the Dark Lord, and also provided Jialong, which was reused as an air force.
Taking advantage of the Battle of Buckingham Palace, Jaehaerys McFasty made a surprise attack on the Fire Dragon Reserve and obtained many Welsh Green Dragons, greatly increasing his strength.
In the Death Eater camp, he is also considered a sudden rise, and he is more and more important.
In terms of status, it basically completely replaced the previous Malfoy family, and the limelight was no different.
Inside the Death Eaters, it was like a harem vying for favor.
Voldemort’s “love” is so much, it is impossible for both rain and dew. How much he favored the McFasty family, the other wizards would be left out in the cold.
Hearing that the Ministry of Magic was going to attack this place, many Death Eaters gloated over the misfortune, wishing that McFastey…death!
Don’t look at the Death Eater team, the Dark Lord decides with one word, but there are many factions and small groups where he can’t see it.
When Voldemort was still Tom, he followed his pure-blooded family and always called himself “senior” and “humerus”.
They relied on “conservation of the dragon” and looked down on the later entrants.
After the First Wizarding War, a group of Death Eaters led by Malfoy escaped the postwar trial.
After Voldemort’s resurrection, they were not very popular, so they had to huddle together to keep warm.
Also, most of the group of Death Eaters who had been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years were caught by Stark that Christmas… and a small number of them escaped.
They are the Dark Lord’s most fanatical and loyal servants.
And the McFasty family belongs to the emerging power… They look down on the old people and think they are rotten and incompetent.
The characteristics of this group of Death Eaters are that they are very hardworking. For example, McFasty, even his son was captured by Stark.
Their enthusiasm, pulling the “involution” within the Death Eaters, is the “mortal enemy” of all wizards who want to lie down.
The formation of these factions and partisan disputes has caused many internal conflicts among the Death Eaters.
If there is a problem with one party, to describe it in one sentence is:
The friendly army is in trouble, and it does not move like a mountain.
At this time, this is the situation, and I saw a Death Eater say:
“The commander-in-chief this time is Stark, and he will definitely lead the werewolves and giants.
Plus, the so-called European coalition…”
“Master, the enemy is powerful, it’s better to avoid the edge for a while.”
“Yes, we should strategically abandon the Hebrides, concentrate our superior forces, and attack Gringotts!”
Someone came up with the idea of the treasury, trying to make a fortune in the chaos.
Jaehaerys McFasty snorted coldly:
“There are a large number of young fire dragons on the island, and they can grow to adult size in half a year.
These are important strengths that cannot be lost. I think reinforcements are necessary…”
“You have a geographical advantage. Last year, you attacked the Fire Dragon Reserve, and you were also supplemented by the Fire Dragon’s combat power.” A Death Eater said strangely:
“You are so strong, and you need reinforcements, what should we do?”
“That is, you have so many fire dragons that you can completely resist Stark alone.”
Voldemort stroked the giant snake under his crotch and said angrily, “Enough.”
The quarrel immediately subsided.
“For a long time, many of our oldest families have gotten a little sick,” he said.
The Dark Lord stood up and stuck the dagger in Casio’s head. He walked down the steps and looked down at the huge map.
“I have made up my mind to place the battlefield on the Hebrides.”
After saying this, the Dark Lord looked down at the map intently.
Roose Bolton, who was silent like a wooden sculpture, spoke again, conveying the strategic plan that Voldemort had made long ago.
“Jaehaerys, you must defend the Hebrides and contain the army of wizards from the Ministry of Magic.
Nott, you lead the Death Eaters, trolls, and orcs to form the Eastward Army;
Dirham, you lead the vampires and the Inferi to form the Westward Corps.
Then the east and the west went in, forming a combined attack on the Stark department… Flowering in the middle! ”
Voldemort is still very satisfied with his strategy of “things go in”.
He looked at everyone and said, “This is a chain-like overall concept, I hope you can fight a beautiful siege battle.
Before the fall, no matter how many wizards died in battle, I didn’t want to see the so-called European Allied Forces appear in this land. ”
Voldemort paused for a moment, looked around and said:
“Can I wish you all success?”
Everyone bowed their heads, and no one dared to promise. Not only were they unsure, but they were somewhat afraid.
“I don’t understand~www.mtlnovel.com~Why are you all so scared!” Voldemort said angrily:
“Stark may be powerful, but war is not the same as wizard duel.
He is only a child, and it is the first time he has commanded a large army of wizards to fight, and he has no knowledge of military affairs, strategies, or tactics! ”
“Fifty years ago, I graduated from Hogwarts and set out on a journey.
After only twenty years, the power of the Death Eaters had accumulated enough to rival the magic department.
Even Dumbledore and his Order of the Phoenix were suppressed by us to the point where they couldn’t raise their heads and could only hide in the dark.
That kind of invincible situation is still in front of us.
Today, just a few decades later, are you so cowardly? What a big joke! ”
Voldemort’s face became colder and colder, and finally he shouted sharply:
“No matter how you say it, the battle strength is 8,000 versus 6,000, and the advantage lies with me!!”
The whole hall was silent.
The Dark Lord moved forward slowly, stepping on the map step by step, and finally landed on Hogwarts.
Before the fall, he will make every inch of land that resists him stained with blood!
