“权即遣肃行” makes no sense to me. Is it some kind of Old Chinese for 权力部门将我遣返回国？？

<p>兼语句：用兼语短语充当谓语的主谓句。其主要特点有：它的谓语
由一个动宾短语和一个主谓短语套接而成；动宾短语中的动词通常是使
令性动词。如： “叫、让‘派、使、请、教、劝、命令、禁止、任命、号
召、选举”等等。有是还用“有”。如：<br>
A 我请周恩来同志来解释。<br>
B 你让他下午到我办公室来一下。<br>
C 蔚蓝的天宇中正有一群大雁飞过。</p>

<p>If you have a link with explanation in English or Spanish I would be grateful.</p>

兼语 is a structure where VO & SV combine to form V(O/S)V.

e.g.

让他（VO）+他吃饭（SV）=让他吃饭（兼语句式）

兼语 is inherited from Classical Chinese, ans is still common today.

e.g.

权即遣肃行。（《资治通鉴》）

Often we can omit (O/S) if the context permits:

权即遣行。

计未定，求人可使报秦者。（《史记•廉颇蔺相如列传》）

EDIT:

It's clear that 动宾短语 is Verb-Object Phrase~

（孙）权即遣（鲁）肃行

孙权 immediately send 鲁肃 to go (to build up alliance).
