The two levels are on par.
Wang Jiayan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, came out and said, "Your Majesty, I think Sun Chuanting died on the battlefield and should be posthumously honored according to the posthumous title of a military general. Considering the merits of Sun Dushi, I think he should be posthumously honored with the title of Zhonglie."
"I second the motion."
"I second this motion."
There were not many military generals in the Ming Dynasty who were posthumously named "Zhonglie", including Zhang Fu, Xu Zhong, Li Rusong and others.
Chongzhen said nothing and looked at Li Banghua.
It was still the familiar recipe, and the familiar taste. The emperor could not speak of what he wanted to do, but had to speak through the ministers.
If the opinion was wrong or things went wrong, the ministers would take the blame and the emperor would not be at fault.
Li Banghua stepped out of the class and bowed: "Your Majesty, I think you should be given the posthumous title of Zhongwu."

Li Banghua looked at this former subordinate and said calmly, "Chuan Ting is extremely talented and brave. His contributions are beyond the evaluation of you and me.

"When he was the governor of the three borders of Shaanxi, he had no money, no soldiers, and no food, but he was able to defeat Li Chuang's bandits in Ruzhou. If it hadn't been for the heavy rain and muddy roads and the lack of food and grass, Sun Chuanting would not have been defeated!"
Li Banghua looked at Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, I think there is no problem in posthumously conferring the title of Zhongwu on Sun Chuanting."
