Soon, under the arrangement of His Majesty the King, under the palace affairs department, the resettlement office for retired servicemen was soon set up, and the person in charge was also arranged.

The purpose of setting up the resettlement office is to resettle retired servicemen, eliminate worries about the future, and let the vast number of servicemen feel at ease.

Not only the Army, but also the Navy, as long as they are legally discharged from the army, they can get the placement arrangement.

Of course, at this point, it is necessary to say about the current military system in the United Kingdom as a whole.

First, the entire United Kingdom Government has implemented a universal winter training system in conjunction with the traditional compulsory militia system.

Every able-bodied adult male who has attained the age of sixteen must come in December in the winter months for a month-long military training under the leadership of the local lieutenant and is not allowed to return home.

These thirty days are mandatory, mandatory, and all citizens must participate.

That is to say, it is the nature of a national obligation, in place of the tradition of mere labor and military service for His Majesty.

In this regard, the county lieutenant received this task, and his salary naturally increased a little, but the hard work made them unable to avoid it.

This kind of one-month annual training measure can not only grasp the domestic adults of appropriate age, but also recruit in a timely manner.

will contribute more to the kingdom's military power.

Before, the army and navy recruited either unlucky people from the side of the road, drunkards, or homeless, and in short, not many people wanted to be soldiers.

His Majesty the King carried out a series of military reforms and improved the system of deficiencies in the army.

First of all, in the recruitment of the army, it is no longer the army itself that arrests and envy it, but the local militia leads the county lieutenants, and in coordination with the military appropriation committee, they go to the local areas to recruit together.

Of course, there are also those who sign up on their own, and there are recruitment offices in each county, and although people are welcome to sign up on their own, there are not many responders.

In terms of the payment of salaries, the bad habit has also been changed, and the officers are no longer paid on their own.

Instead, each soldier had his own bank account number, which in the Bank of England was credited to the account on time every month.

The standard of salary payment is different, which in turn has given rise to the development of the military rank system.

After a series of deliberations, in 1560, the British military rank system was officially promulgated.

The ranks of the army and navy are divided into 9 classes and 22 grades, which are:

Field Marshal: Field Marshal

Generals: Generals, Lieutenant Generals, Major Generals

Brigadier General: Brigadier General

Officers: Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, Major

Lieutenants: Captain, Lieutenant, Ensign

Warrant Officer: Warrant Officer 1st Class, Warrant Officer 2nd Class

Non-commissioned officers: regimental non-commissioned officers, company non-commissioned officers, and team non-commissioned officers

Sergeant: Sergeant, Sergeant, Corporal

Private: Private 1st, Private 2nd, Recruit

There are two types of army rank insignia: officer epaulettes and soldier (including warrant officers and non-commissioned officers) armbands.

Marshal: A crossed scepter surrounded by a crown and laurel branches

Admiral: Crown, four-pointed star, crossed scepter, and sword

Lieutenant General: Crown, crossed scepter, and sword

The recruit was no more than four shillings a month, up to the privates and sergeants, all three of which increased by four shillings per rank, and finally to the sergeant, which amounted to exactly one pound.

Don't look at the relatively low salary, but this is a pure salary, clothing, food, weapons, are all provided by the army, this money as pocket money is more than wrong, can barely feed the family.

Starting from a non-commissioned officer to a lieutenant, the starting point is very different, and it has stepped onto a new level.

The sergeant started at two pounds sterling and increased by eight shillings per rank, and by the captain he reached four pounds a month.

This salary is enough to support the family and live at the middle-class level.

Colonels and brigadier generals, starting with five pounds, increased by two pounds per rank, and to brigadier generals, eleven pounds a month, with an annual salary of hundreds of pounds.

Generals, on the other hand, start at twenty pounds and increase by ten pounds per rank, and when they reach the rank of general, they will be forty pounds per month, and their annual salary will be four hundred and eighty pounds, which is enough to buy a small estate.

The marshal, on the other hand, was paid ninety pounds a month, or a thousand pounds a year, which was more than the annual income of some barons.

Of course, these are just ordinary salaries, and in wartime, there will definitely be allowances, so to speak, the standard of living of the military has risen in a straight line.

The salary is higher, there are more people who are soldiers, and the number of years is naturally higher.

In five years, before reaching the rank of lieutenant, all of them were retired, unless they had made outstanding meritorious contributions.

The reason why this is so is because under the setting of this set of military ranks, the royal family and the United Kingdom really can't afford to raise too many soldiers.

Take, for example, the current United Kingdom standing army of 30,000.

There are about 150,000 troops stationed in various places, and although half is shared by the local government, it still requires nearly 5,000 pounds a month from the Army Appropriations Committee.

The 5,000 defenders in Normandy and the 3,000 defenders in Brittany were allocated nearly £10,000 a month.

Add in the thousands of people guarding London, and the City of London pays half, but it still needs to allocate two thousand pounds.

In other words, the monthly expenditure of the army has reached 17,000 pounds.

The navy numbered just over 10,000 men, but the government and the royal family still had to spend £10,000 on the use of seaports to apportion.

Combined, the monthly military expenditure amounted to 27,000 pounds, and the royal family needed to share close to 13,500 pounds.

This is a huge amount, which means that the annual military expenditure is 162,000 pounds, and the total amount that the royal family needs to spend on the military every year reaches 80,000 pounds.

Fortunately, the land sales in Normandy and Brittany gave the coalition government and the royal family a blood transfusion, otherwise it would have been really difficult.

After all, the central finance of the coalition government is only 200,000 pounds a year, and the salaries of officials have already accounted for half of them.

The establishment of a resettlement place is equivalent to an additional expense, and the pension and resettlement fee are also required, and these add up to not a small amount.

I can't bear it if I keep letting the royal family do it!
