Those who were to be killed, were killed; those who were to be punished, were punished.
No sooner had the matter of dealing with the rebels subsided than Ye Feng issued several decrees that shook the entire Northern Border Legion to its core.
The Eight Legions would be abolished, to be reorganized into Five Great Legions, with appointments as follows.
Xiao Chuanqi as the First Legion Commander.
Leng Wuming as the Second Legion Commander.
Jin Wuming as the Third Legion Commander.
Shangguan Fenghua as the Fourth Legion Commander.
Qin He as the Fifth Legion Commander.
The positions of Marquis and commander were permanently abolished; the Northern Border would not recognize them, nor would it confer such titles in the future. The personnel structures under the Legion Commanders were to be arranged according to the latest international military regulations, rewarding merit and promoting in due course.
