"The shorts are already being made and will be delivered in a couple of days. You'll have to wear loincloths for the next couple of days and bear with it!"

"The Captain is truly mighty!"

"Captain, you keep giving us clothes and shoes, even if you had a mountain of gold at home, you'd eventually lose it all..."

"Don't be afraid!"

“I keep track of everything I give you. When you go to the battlefield, make contributions, and receive rewards, I will deduct it from your rewards!”

"ah?"

"You didn't give this to me for free, did you?"

"Pah!"

"Why should I give it away for free? My family doesn't have mountains of gold or silver. How the hell could I afford to give it away?!"

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard Li Jue say that.

The men of Guanzhong valued righteousness over wealth, and no one took this matter seriously. However, compared to Li Jue's maturity, they preferred to see the Commandant in a fit of rage.

"Gentlemen, the report cards have been posted, and officer ranks will be awarded according to the ranking. If any of you want to become officers, you can apply. As long as your ranking is high enough, you can become an officer!"

"Captain, you can arrange this as you see fit. We have no objections!"

"No, that's the rule!"

"Our military command has its own rules, and no one can break them. If anyone doesn't want to be an officer and only wants to be a private, they can submit an application in advance to avoid being given a position later and then finding it too troublesome to do..."

"Captain, do you think we're stupid? There's no one in the world who doesn't want to be an official, hahaha!"

After a month of arduous training, the more than 1,000 soldiers were already familiar with each other, and everyone knew very well who was capable and who was not.

Furthermore, Li Jue's system relies entirely on scores, virtually eliminating any influence from relationships or personal connections, which makes everyone respect Li Jue as their superior.

Basically, no one had any objections to any position appointed by Li Jue.

While Li Jue was announcing the various appointments, that old bastard Li Jing secretly rode his warhorse back to the capital to claim credit.

"Your Majesty, this is a great joy!"

"Duke of Wei, what brings you this joy?"

"Your Majesty, please look, this is the military uniform recently invented by your great-grandson!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin glanced at the military uniform that Li Jing had handed him, then tossed it aside with a look of disgust.

"What is this? Is this fabric that was ruined by someone's dye shop and you've picked it up to make clothes?"

"Your Majesty, this wasn't dyed badly; it was intentionally dyed this color!"

"What is the purpose of this item?"

"Your Majesty, please have a guard put this on, and you'll see for yourself!"

"oh?"
