The Roman military was given orders by their generals, their consuls or their emperor, depending on the times. Technically the consuls were in charge of the military, but the leadership of the various legions was delegated to the generals or the legates of the legion. To complicate matters further, the troops swore their oaths of allegiance to their generals during the republic, so it was the generals who the troops obeyed rather than the consuls. Augustus changed all this by establishing the principate and having the military swear their allegiance to him, as emperor.
