Biodata

Feature	Information
Name	Commander (百总)
Affiliation	River Bureau; River Office
Occupation/Role	Senior military office overseeing forces and, in the Combat Department, the waters under its jurisdiction
Status	Active; appointments are highly contested and vacancies are rare
First Appearance	Chapter 52

Commander posts in the River Bureau are normally fixed for years; newcomers generally can only compete when an incumbent retires or a vacancy opens. Such vacancies become contests between Clear River City’s major factions. 106
A Combat Department Commander possesses substantial authority and influence. Within the waters under their control, they are described as functioning like local rulers despite being constrained by the River Bureau’s Thousand-Commanders. 106
Commanders are eligible to obtain military merit above Grade D and may exchange merit at the River Office for higher cultivation methods, including the Force Refinement and True Force Transformation Method. 107
A Commander may recruit and transfer personnel, but formal military registration, tokens, and transfer orders determine whether that authority can be exercised in practice. Hong Ming was unable to mobilize his former Fourth Team before his promotion and transfer were formally implemented. 114

In the recorded emergency selection, only Squad Leaders who had previously secured a selection slot could enter the Commander candidacy. 106
The candidacy theoretically included eighteen martial artists: twelve from the Combat Department and three each from the Ship Affairs and General Affairs Departments. 106
Candidates first underwent screening by receiving one move from a Vice Thousand-Commander without being driven beyond a marked white line. Those who passed advanced to martial contests. 109
Weapons were permitted during the selection, favoring Main Combat Battalion candidates trained in saber techniques. 108
The victor could temporarily serve as a Commander; Hong Ming ultimately won the selection by defeating Jiang Xuan. 106 113

Hong Ming’s appointment — Hong Ming’s victory denied Jiang Yingfeng’s adopted son Jiang Xuan the Commander post, intensifying the rivalry between Jiang Yingfeng and Huang Yucheng. 113
Military-order manipulation — Before Hong Ming’s appointment and transfer were finalized, Jiang Yingfeng issued him a ten-day order to exterminate the bandits responsible for Zhu An’s death while his available troops were removed from his control. 113 114
Huang Yucheng’s death — Vice Thousand-Commander Huang Yucheng was later ambushed and killed, prompting a citywide investigation of Clear River City’s Transformation Force martial artists. 120
