As for the military system, Wang Yue copied the modern military position, but made changes in the number of soldiers. The first battalion of Pen, Fun and Pavilion www.biquge.info was divided into two companies, and the first company had five platoons of 50 men each.

In the evening, Wang Youhua took the results of the assessment to Wang Yue and lined up the rankings, of course, Wang Youhua couldn't think of doing this, this was what Li Yu helped him do. Early the next morning, Wang Yue came to the school with this watch, and at this time, 26 young people stood under the high platform, looking at Wang Yue with blank eyes, waiting for Wang Yue to announce the rankings.

Looking at the expectant eyes of these young people in the audience, Wang Yue felt a sense of pride in his heart, it turned out that the feeling of being a superior person was so wonderful, no wonder everyone wanted to be an official.

"The results of your assessment have come out, and now I announce ...... Li Honghua is the commander of the 1st Battalion, and Wang Xiaolu is the commander of the 2nd Battalion! As soon as the words fell, four people carried out two sets of armor from behind the high platform, and the difference between these two sets of armor and other armor was that Wang Yue engraved words on them. They are Major Li Honghua, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the Ironclad Army, and Major Wang Xiaolu, the commander of the 2nd Battalion of the Ironclad Army. The three characters of the Ironclad Army are located slightly below the left shoulder, and the four characters of the 1st Battalion Commander are located under the three characters of the Ironclad Army, the words are slightly smaller, and then below is the major so-and-so, the word is the smallest.

This word was engraved by Wang Yue overnight after getting the list, the purpose of this is to distinguish the personal subordination, and the second is to enhance the competitiveness and sense of honor between the army, although in this way each pair of armor will belong to only one person, which increases the cost, but for Wang Yue, such a similar existence, such a cost is nothing.

As for the name of the Iron Armored Army, it was discussed by Wang Yue and Wang Youhua overnight. Since it has become an army, it must have a resounding name, and the biggest feature of this army is the iron armor of the whole body, so the iron armor army is of course the most suitable name, which not only retains the characteristics, but also does not lose the military style.

Wang Yue personally sent these two sets of armor to the two of them, and when they got the armor, Li Honghua and Wang Xiaolu trembled, they didn't expect that they would be able to command hundreds of people one day, and they didn't expect that they would get such beautifully made armor.

And the others looked at these two people, their eyes were full of envy, and they also wanted such an honor. At this moment, they are all regretting why they didn't make more efforts when they were training, in that case, they can't make it their own now.

Wang Yue naturally saw the envy in the eyes of these people in the audience, this is exactly the purpose of what he is doing, with envy, there is a goal, and there is motivation, which is the most important thing for a strong army.

Later, Wang Yue announced the candidates for the company commander and platoon commander, and also sent their armor to their respective hands, of which the company commander was awarded a captain, and the platoon commander was awarded a second lieutenant. These people don't understand the meaning of this rank, but they also know that it represents an honor, an affirmation of your contribution to this army.

Later, Wang Yue said some words of encouragement, telling everyone that if they work hard, they will be promoted to military ranks and positions, etc., so I won't say much. After saying that, Wang Yue let these people go home and took a three-day vacation. Three days later, Wang Yue will start the official recruitment, of course, the public declares that he is recruiting guards, otherwise he will be considered a rebel if he does not have the right to recruit soldiers. But how can anyone recruit so many guards, a clear-eyed person can know what Wang Yue is going to do at a glance, but Wang Yue and the prefect are of the same faction, so he naturally can't speak. The government doesn't care, who has reason to say Wang Yue.

During these three days, Wang Yue discussed with Wang Youhua and others how to carry out propaganda and the treatment of soldiers. This propaganda is easy to do, as long as you are willing to spend money. But when it comes to the issue of treatment, Wang Yue has a big head, because this is the most expensive. Wang Yue's soldiers are all wearing iron armor, and this iron armor weighs thirty pounds at least, so it is necessary to ensure that the soldiers eat well, and eating well in this era means eating meat.

In addition to this, there is also the problem of soldiers' salaries, and the Southern Song Dynasty court gave ordinary soldiers about 2 yuan a month, that is, 2 taels of silver. However, Wang Yue's requirements for the army are much stricter than those of the Xiang army, this person has at least 3 taels a month, and this thousand people have 3,000 taels per month, not including the officers' rebellious salaries and soldiers' pensions.

But fortunately, Wang Yue's current industry is enough to support these soldiers, not to mention that the rare things that Wang Yue brought from modern times can bring him tens of thousands of taels of silver every month, and the business on the salt alone, Wang Yue's monthly income is nearly 10,000 taels.

But Wang Yue's goal is not just an army of only 1,000 people, which has no effect on the ancient wars of more than 100,000 people, which requires the expansion of the army, but the expansion of the army requires a sum of expenses, which is a headache for Wang Yue.

However, these problems are all in the future, the first problem now is to recruit new soldiers, Wang Yue is not afraid of no soldiers, only the refugees outside the city who are leaning against the city wall are enough to meet Wang Yue's needs now. But Wang Yue naturally wouldn't look for recruits casually, so he had requirements for recruits. These refugees haven't eaten enough for a long time, so they can't meet their physical requirements, so Wang Yue's requirements are placed on willpower.

After three days of publicity, everyone in the city now knows that there is a local wealth in the city to recruit guards, so all the men who have no jobs in the city go to recruit and sign up.

The 26 officers of the Ironclad Army stood behind the registration point, firstly to prevent someone from making trouble, and secondly, to show the heroic posture of the Ironclad Army to those who registered.

The people who came to sign up saw the iron armor worn by the ironclad army, all of them showed greedy eyes, and after hearing that every ironclad army would have such armor, they all fantasized about what they would look like when they put on this set of armor, so they all hugged forward to sign up.

After registering, everyone received a small wooden plaque with their names and basic information written on them, and were told that they would gather at the foot of Chengnan Mountain before midnight the next day, and those who arrived late would be disqualified from joining the Ironclad Army. When the number of applicants was increased to 2,000, Wang Yue ordered the registration to be stopped, and those refugees who did not register were all disappointed, and they lost a chance to eat, and those who signed up happily told the news to their wives and children outside the city, and their wives and children all rose up to hope for survival, and repeatedly told their men to seize this opportunity.

The next day, Wang Yue and Wang Youhua took 26 officers to carry several baskets of steamed buns to the foot of the south mountain in the south of the city. For these people, this participation in the Ironclad Army is their chance to live, and they dare not give it up.

Wang Yue asked each of the 20 platoon commanders to lead a phalanx of 100 people, waiting for those with wooden cards to come, and as for those who didn't have wooden cards and wanted to try their luck, Wang Yue asked them to throw them out. The people he wants are powerful people, not those who are opportunistic.
