At the very top of the Xinese military is the Council of 5 lead by the 'Five Border Generals' (Official title being: Dà biānjiè jiāngjūn) the five generals are in charge of the five border armies of Xin.

Each border general is given command of roughly 5 provinces and it's armies. The 5 generals each have a Grand Fortress within their own provinces but they also have a massive part of the Imperial Tower dedicated to them. Each General tends to stay within their fortress and are occasionally summoned to Zhengzhou if this is to happen a sub takes his place normally a trusted lieutenant, when the commander is in his fortress the sub is in Zhengzhou.

Under the Border Generals are the Jiduwei who are the generals for a province and generally act as Lieutenants to the Border General. In combat they serve as his sub commanders helping the Border General manage the massive armies of Xin. Throughout the Empire there are only 25 Jiduwei with each Border General having roughly 5 each.

Under the Jiduwei is the Yunjiwei who are the above the run of the mill general but not by much. Normally they are in charge of a large part of a provinces troops (Normally a 10th). They are more of a administrative role being the logistical and administrative heads of the military while letting the other more combat focused generals do their job. It is because of this most Military Governors hold the rank of Yunjiwei.

Now finally the run of the mill general, the Enjiwei. A Enjiwei is in charge of a few districts troops and a regiment of Imperial Troops. They are one of the lowest ranking generals and are quite common through out Xin.

Junwei is a vice general and normally a commander in training, old friend given some privileges, or a commander the general wishes to keep his eye on.

Anjingwei is a special type of general they are directly in charge of Imperial troops and normally are placed in between a Jiduwei and a Yunjiwei. They are a political rank and serve as the Emperor's eye and ears making sure to keep the Military in line with the Emperor's goals. They tend to wear a white lotus distinction upon their armor.
