Chapter 289
Chang He was slightly startled: "Why Feng Quan?"

Chang Wei breathed in, and said slowly: "The capital is on fire, and the officers and men stationed in the capital are obliged to do so. Lord Zhen is the governor of the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion, and he can't get rid of this matter. Feng Quan is one of the few people in the Chinese Army's Governor's Mansion who defends Zhen Guogong. At this moment, Lord Zhen went directly to the scene, but Feng Quan left instead, he must have been ordered. Moreover, he was probably ordered to go back to the Central Army Yamen to transfer troops."

"Understood!" Chang He said, "The commander of the imperial court's military battalion only has the right to manage troops but not to deploy them."

Chang Wei nodded slightly: "Go."

The light in the corridor was scattered by the figure rushing out, Chang Wei looked at the quiet courtyard, took out a bamboo tube sealed with wax paint from his cuff, and said to the dark place: "Send it out, you must wait for the reply to come." return."

An ordinary-looking man in long clothes came out of the darkness, took it with both hands, and then bowed and retreated.

……

Fighting the fire was like saving lives. Feng Quan took the order of Lord Zhen Guo and rushed to the Zhongjun Yamen non-stop. When he arrived at the Defense Department to look for the generals and key soldiers who were on duty at night, he couldn't even catch his breath.

"This is the commander's token, please send [-] troops to reinforce immediately!"

When the generals take over the sign with trepidation, they will draw lots and order immediately.

"Wait a minute!"

But at this moment, a few people strode in from the outside, Feng Quan and the general saw the leader, and quickly bowed down: "I have seen the right governor!"

Fang Mei, the governor of the right, scanned the room, and his eyes fell on the sign in the general's hand: "What is this for?"

Feng Quan was afraid of delaying the military situation, so he hurriedly said: "If you go back to the commander-in-chief, the Nancheng Guancang suddenly caught fire, and the fire got out of control. The commander-in-chief ordered the Chinese military battalion to send [-] soldiers for reinforcements. The officer was ordered to come and dispatch troops!"

"Mobilize troops?" Fang Meiyang raised his final voice, "When will our Chinese military battalion also have the right to mobilize troops?"

Feng Quan was stunned for a moment: "You Dudu, the fire is urgent right now, not only endangering the official warehouse, but also the people in Nancheng. The water dragon ladder cannot be erected by one or two people, and the manpower in the official warehouse is far from enough to control the fire. The places that are on fire and the places that are not yet on fire need manpower, and it is too late to ask the Ministry of War to issue an order now, and if the Central Army camp does not send troops to maintain it, it will lead to catastrophe!"

"No matter what the reason is, the imperial court's soldiers and horses must be mobilized by the Ministry of War. This is the law of the king! As the Chinese army's military governor's mansion that shoulders the defense of the capital, how can the troops be so casual?"

"But this is the order of the governor!"

Fang Mei said in a deep voice, "I don't care whose order it is! Without a document from the Ministry of War, this soldier is not allowed to be dispatched!"

"The right governor!..."

"The governor is here tonight, even if you bring out the king of heaven, you have to follow the regulations!"

Fang Mei slapped the sword on the desk, and glared over with a gloomy face.

Feng Quan stood there for a moment, then withdrew his jaw.

The Governor's Mansion of the Chinese Army is not far from Nancang. At this time, many people have already poured out of the street to visit.Everyone talked while running, all the worries of losing their homes were all over their faces.

Feng Quan gritted his teeth and got on his horse, following the flow of people towards Guancang!
Yang You has good feet, when Zhen Guogong arrived, [-] guards from the Han family had already arrived, and people from the Defense Department also rushed over, and all kinds of fire extinguishing facilities were put into use one after another.It’s just that it was a step too late, because the big warehouse that was on fire burned to the ground, causing the warehouses next to it to burn too. Those who could help were only able to take care of these two warehouses, and the neighboring houses, Shops need to be protected in advance, but right now there is no manpower to take care of them.

Su Shou was led by the guards to inspect the warehouse. The Lord Zhen Guo and the people from the Fang Yu Division arranged for the personnel to go down. Just as he was about to ask why the soldiers from the Chinese Army Camp hadn't arrived yet, the guards rushed to him: "Feng Du Something is coming!"

"Great Governor!"

As soon as Zhen Guogong turned around, he saw Feng Quan running over from a distance with his robe in his hand, out of breath: "The next official went to the Yamen, but Fang Mei, the governor of the right, said that he needed a tiger talisman from the Ministry of War to dispatch troops. But send troops, no matter how the subordinate officials describe how critical the situation is, he will not let go!"

Duke Zhen was furious: "This is an urgent matter, how dare he stop it?!"

"He said that this is the king's law, and he dare not violate Fang Yoududu's resolute refusal. He also said that it doesn't matter if the king of heaven is gone, he must have the tiger talisman of the Ministry of War!"

"The five hundred soldiers and horses fighting the fire will use the Tiger Talisman of the Ministry of War?" Han Mo who was passing by heard that he came over, "Is this Fang serious?"

Feng Quan bowed: "Not only was he serious, but he also took a weapon to demonstrate to the lower officials. The lower officials were powerless to argue, so they had to come back and report to the Duke!"

"Fuck his ancestor's tiger amulet! Since his father went to the Central Military Camp, this Fang has united with a group of officials to obstruct his father's administration. Is it a matter of which individual yamen? This is a matter of the court, and a matter of the entire capital! This person surnamed Fang actually uses this kind of reason to drag it here? I will go and meet him!"

As soon as Han Mo said that, he raised his sword and wanted to leave.

Duke Zhen grabbed him and said, "You stay here, I can only deal with you!"

After he finished speaking, he strode to the distant tree, untied his horse, and stepped onto the street.

"Han Shizi!"

Just as Han Mo watched Duke Zhen go away, Su Shou hurried over, "I just forgot to ask Lord Guo, is there someone guarding the basement of the Defense Department?"

Han Mo paused: "What does Shaoqing mean?"

Su Shou looked left and right, and approached him with a tense face: "The fire doesn't look suspicious at the moment, but there is no guarantee that no one will take the opportunity to make trouble when such a big accident occurs suddenly, and the Defense Agency is deploying. Regarding the relationship between the Han and Su families, the Duke of the State must not be careless, lest he fall into the scheme of the villain to divert the tiger away from the mountain."

Mr. Zhen Guo dragged him here, why is it really because of the mechanism of the warehouse gate?He is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, there was a fire for no reason, and the cause must be investigated, and the earlier the inspection time, the easier it is to get clues, so he did not include it for a start, he came to investigate for clues.

Han Mo was moved when he heard the words: "During the transformation of the basement machinery, will the weapons and other things inside be moved?"

"No! All of them are included. Although there are officers and soldiers guarding them every night, but what happened tonight is unusual, so you must personally send someone to guard them!"

Han Mo clenched the handle of his sword tightly, and then called Song Yan who was far away: "Take people to the Defense Department immediately, and keep them under strict surveillance until the Duke sends someone to take over! If someone blocks you, you can go to the palace to see him in my name." Your Majesty or His Royal Highness! Except for our people and those who hold the imperial decree to allow entry, no one should be allowed to enter!"

Su Shou said: "Part of the mechanism in the basement has been built, and it can be used to resist one or two. Wait for me to go with Mr. Song!"

Seeing him walking so swiftly, Han Mo stepped forward to persuade him: "Master Su is as careful as a hair, and my father took over this place later, please stay here to help my father. I will deal with the matter of the basement. Just go and ask Ling Ai for help! —Song Yan, you stay and watch!"

After speaking, he winked, and then he ran away with his guards.
