    If you intended to remove the posts, and you don’t want to redirect all of them, I recommend just letting it run its course.

    The warnings you’re seeing in the search console are simply Google letting you know that something may be wrong with your site, it won’t harm your ranking in any way.

    If Google hits a 404 on a particular URL enough times, Google will remove it from its index.

    If you want to clear those errors out of your search console to make it more useful for you (or at least easier to spot real problems), check each one and hit the red “Mark as Fixed” button. If Google gets a 404 again after you tell it that it’s fixed, it will get the hint. ??
