Gongjin's Campaign Memorials

Great Commander (dà shuài 大帥) was the rank of Yellow Turban Wu Ba.

Description[]

Just as with Wu Ba, his rank is known without much detail. It seems plausible that Wu Ba was ranked lower than Large Division Leaders and Small Division Leaders, above whom there were only the Zhang brothers.[3]

Duties and Rights[]

  • Lead troops.

Notes[]

  1. Kongming's Archives translates '大帥' as Commander-in-Chief. This is incorrect because the hanzi for Commander-in-Chief is just '', without '大'.
