Sirius was certainly not a good commander as he tended to prefer direct combat.
If he just leads one or two teams straight to the front of the battlefield, no matter how strong the enemy is, it is impossible for him to wear away his strong will; but if he is asked to lead a large number of teams to deploy in the middle... This does not mean that he can't do it at all. , but certainly not as comprehensive as Kingsley and Lupin.
Therefore, what he is currently doing does not actually have any technical content. It is just to follow Kingsley's previous instructions and eliminate those crazy wizards in batches.
So when Barlow, the headmaster of Ilvermorny, came to Sirius, the first thing he saw was not that the other party was standing in the middle of the team and guiding many subordinates on the spot, but that he was personally rushing to the front to face the enemy.
Just looking at the flexible spell-casting skills and clever teammate cooperation, the situation here is obviously more inclined to Sirius's team.
But apart from his main team, the other teams are almost all fighting on their own, and there is almost no group cooperation.
Of course, fundamentally speaking, he does not need to exert any commanding ability on the spot, because Kingsley has already told him clearly what to do.
In short, it was enough to drive or lure the group of crazy wizards led by Kingsley's Muggle army.
"Mr. Black?"
Sirius had just defeated an enemy with his teammates when he heard a voice in his own voice and appeared.
"Huh? Oh... You must be the principal of Ilvermorny and the leader of the American support team this time, right?" He said, "Your deputy team leader came to see me just now... Anyway, thank you for coming here. We help.”
This kind of formulaic phrases is naturally not his strong point. Even because of the restraint he received in his family when he was a child, he doesn't like polite words like this even more.
However, when he had to say a few nonsense words to show friendship, he could make do with a few words.
Barlow, on the other hand, watched Sirius fight and deal with it casually, and he suddenly realized what kind of character the last heir of the Black family had.
"No, you don't need to thank me. I think Ryder has already told you what you need to say, so I won't go into details. If there is anything you need our help with, just tell me and I will take him there right away. Just do it.”
After all, the Black family is a major family in the modern British magic world. Even though it is completely lonely now, its name is still there.
As for Sirius, he is actually not very old at this age. If Ruosi seizes more time, it is not impossible to find a wife and have a child or something.
Therefore, Barlow was happy to go along with him and make friends with him.
After all, as long as the Black family still has a large fortune, it will be easy to continue it once they have children.
Barlow is not a careerist, but he is a smart man. As one of the younger principals in the history of Ilvermorny School, he is still full of vision and courage. It would not be a bad thing to leave more paths for the development of the school.
On the other side, Sirius saw that Barlow spoke straightforwardly, and he suddenly felt more favorable towards him. While he waved his staff to cast a spell again, he simply gave up those useless pleasantries and pointed to another battle point on the side.
"Actually, the real commander here is Kingsley Shacklebolt, the current Head of the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic... I'm basically just cooperating according to his plan. He told me that there is no need here. What kind of complex wisdom can he use to deal with the enemies he brings over one after another?"
"So just catch those madmen and beat them up in batches! Pay attention to the fighting style of those guys, don't be suppressed by their madness..."
Before Sirius finished speaking, both the enemy and the enemy nearby heard a gust of wind coming from behind, causing everyone, including Sirius and Barlow, to take the time to glance over there.
Immediately, everyone saw a large shadow rushing quickly from the fog over there, causing everyone to take precautions.
"Fire dragon?"
Before taking up the post of Headmaster of Ilvermorny, Barlow was an employee of the International Confederation of Wizards' Magical Creature Hazards Office, where he was responsible for several missions to control the population of Peruvian Vipertooth dragons. As a former dragon hunter, he has as much knowledge about fire dragons as dragon trainers like Charlie.
Therefore, just by glancing at the flying outline through the fog, he could immediately tell what the big guy flying over was.
"Mr. Black, does Haierbo have the habit of raising fire dragons to fight for him?"
"Huh? I really haven't heard of this."
Just as the two of them were chatting casually, everyone saw that the low-altitude figure flying in the gray fog became clearer and clearer, and soon it completely appeared in the sky above the battlefield.
"One of my own...I am Charlie Weasley..."
Probably because of the use of amplifying spells, a clear sentence suddenly floated over the shadow in the sky. But after hearing this reminder, even Sirius and Charlie were no longer strangers, but they were still a little confused.
Nowadays, I have never heard of anyone who can ride a fire dragon to fight!
"Do you know who that 'Charlie Weasley' is?" Barlow glanced at Sirius, and when he saw that the other party seemed to know the name, he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I know him, the child of the Weasley family," Sirius said, "the dragon trainer at the Romanian dragon farm."
Barro knew much more about powerful and ferocious magical creatures like fire dragons than Sirius. At that time, he had even witnessed the Peruvian Venomtooth dragon preying on humans, and he knew the nature of this creature.
But... he also understands that there are a lot of weird things in this world, so he is more accepting of it.
"With the help of the fire dragon, these crazy dark wizards will have nothing to fear!"
Almost the moment he said these words, all the wizards in the battle discovered that the shadow that had been hovering in the air for a week suddenly leaned down and rushed downwards.
"Roar-"
As he got closer, Norbert's strong body was finally fully revealed - the almost ink-colored dark green dragon scales, the neck and back with hard barbs, and Charlie astride his neck.
Sure enough, a wizard riding a fire dragon arrived!
Just above the heads of the wizards, Nobelta suddenly flapped its broad wings, and in a burst of strong airflow, it suddenly paused in mid-air.
At that moment, I saw Noberta's dragon kiss, and the blazing flames suddenly spit out.
Faced with the terrifyingly high temperature of the dragon's breath, even the black-eyed wizards with that weird black substance need to be careful to avoid it. Naturally, these crazy wizards whose defenses are not much different from ordinary people cannot resist it.
Immediately, a large number of enemies scattered on the battlefield ahead, trying to escape the spitting fire, but many of them were still swept away.
For a time, the numerical advantage turned into a disadvantage, and there were suddenly a lot of running "fireballs" in the open space of the square.
If there is something called "when a tiger breaks into the sheep pen", it probably refers to the scene in front of you, right
The next moment, many wizards who were still fighting shouted in surprise.
And at this moment, another figure rushed into the battlefield from the direction where the Norwegian Ridgeback came. However, it was much more low-key compared to the appearance of the fire dragon, and basically no one noticed it.
And when the figure hurried to Sirius' side, many people realized that it seemed to be another child of the Weasley family.
"Sirius!"
"Oh, Bill?"
When Sirius heard the sound, he first looked at the eldest son of the Weasley family who was running all the way, and then looked up at the fire dragon that was flying again.
"Why are you here?"
"That's right," Bill said straightforwardly without any nonsense, "I've been to the Leaky Cauldron. I heard he said there are some refugees here who are difficult to escort? Charlie and I set up a third refuge at the Quidditch Museum. Click, I’m going to come and pick them up this time.”
"Ah, yes..." Sirius was saying, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "But in my opinion, at least it is more appropriate for Charlie to stay here first - the fire dragon is really suitable for this kind of larger-scale battle. I'll give you some people, and you can lead them to escort the refugees."
When Bill heard what he said, he couldn't help but subconsciously look at the battlefield ahead, and then nodded clearly.
"Uh, that's fine."
