C219 Replacement of military authority
When the sky had just begun to brighten, the imperial city's police station had already sent out all of their forces. However, what made the Commander of the Imperial City Security Office, Xiao Wen, feel strange was that this morning, when the sky was still dark, teams of Imperial City close guard had already appeared on the road.
These close guard were obviously mobilized from the four defensive cities around the imperial city. Their armor was bright, and they were fully armed.
Although the security in the imperial city had been in chaos due to the increase in the number of outsiders, this was still the Emperor's birthday celebration. There shouldn't be a need to act like they were facing a great enemy, right?
Commander Xiao Wen could see that something was amiss with a single glance. This was because the clothes the close guard s were wearing were not those of a celebration, but a complete set of battle equipment! All the infantry were wearing the new armor they had changed for the summer, swords hanging from their waists, shields in their hands.
This commander of the Police Department stood on the street, frowning as she watched a group of close guard s pass by. He was filled with doubts, and immediately went back to the office in Police Department and called for one of her subordinates, telling him to go to the military headquarters and ask for instructions.
But soon, the bad news came back. Even the four squads of security guards that Xiao Wen had sent out earlier brought over a report on their horses, saying that close guard had stopped the security guards from patrolling.
Just as Xiao Wen was filled with anger, a fellow dressed in the uniform of the close guard entered the imperial city. Looking at the emblem on his chest, it was a vice commander officer.
"Commander Xiao Wen!" Then, he read out an order in a loud voice: "Special orders of the Supreme Commander: In order to maintain security in the imperial city, the defense of the imperial city, and the security of the city, everything is temporarily under close guard's control. The imperial city's Police Department is temporarily under close guard's control, everything is under close guard's command!
After saying this, this guy placed the military order on Xiao Wen's table.
General Ma Hanqiang from the close guard Guild?
That guy, Ma Hanqiang, was in charge of the imperial city's defense! Why would you care about our Police Department!
The 40 year old Xiao Wen gloomily looked at the military order in front of him. He suddenly felt a chill in his heart ? Was something going to happen? Since ancient times, the close guard had been in charge of the outer city's defense, while the Public Security Bureau was in charge of the city, this was clearly an order. However, the close guard had suddenly issued an order from the commander department to take over all the authority in the Public Security Residence ?
Commander Xiao Wen understood in his heart that even if the documents of the Supreme Headquarters were true, it would still be very inappropriate!
One had to know that to take over the capital, the Monarch had to personally write down the order to do so! However, looking at this strange close guard officer whose eyes were filled with killing intent, Commander Xiao Wen could vaguely sense that the other party's hand was on the sword hilt. If he were to open his mouth to refuse, the other party would probably immediately take action!
Xiao Wen was very clear about his own strength. He couldn't help but look outside the door as he cursed the guards under his command for dereliction of duty! He actually let these guys in so casually! Although these guys have an emergency military order in their hands, they should at least report it to the military!
"Alright ?" Xiao Wen hesitated for a moment. In the end, he didn't dare to reject it as he hesitated: "I wonder how our Police Department will cooperate with the military?"
