During Sōsuke Aizen's rule over Las Noches, there were two prohibitions.
First, the Espada were forbidden from firing Cero Oscuras within Las Noches.
Second, Espada ranked four or higher were forbidden from releasing their Resurrección beneath the dome.
The primary purpose of these two rules was to protect the "dome" of Hueco Mundo.

The commander of a battlefield front was arguably the most powerful figure below the Hokage.

Even the Hokage, if not present on the battlefield, could not countermand the commander's orders.
Of course, if the Hokage was present, then the battlefield commander could only be the Hokage.
