Helpless, Lin Ruiwen, who had just pretended to be handsome, went to another room. After ordering that no one was allowed to come in and disturb him, he laid a blanket and sleeping bag on the ground, preparing to make do here for the night.
After taking off his coat and lying in his warm sleeping bag in his underwear, Lin Ruiwen immediately narrowed his eyes and began to enter... the system page.
That's right, he was going to pick new recruits!
Now that he was a second lieutenant platoon leader in the system, he had a quota of 50 people to recruit. Apart from the 15 people he already had, he could recruit 35 more.
Moreover, he still had 512 war points to squander. Even if he recruited the most expensive soldiers of the country, 10 war points per person would be more than enough.
However, this time, the mission was even more difficult than the previous two missions. It could be said that the difficulty was not on the same order of magnitude. If he wanted to complete it, he really had to risk his life!
Therefore, at this time, there was no need to worry about being exposed or not. They had to get through this first. Therefore, the selection of troops had to be based on the best. They had to choose the ones with the best combat strength and the best cost-performance ratio, and not consider factors such as concealment.
Because he had more time this time, Lin Ruiwen could carefully ponder over the recruitment list and slowly choose. As he looked, he discovered something interesting. The price of the cute female soldiers might have nothing to do with their actual combat strength.
From the battle between the Japanese girls, it could be seen that the recruitment price was not necessarily related to combat strength. Otherwise, there were also Italian female soldiers among them, but the Italian female soldiers actually cost 6 points per person!
That was the magical Italy, the famous Noodle Army. It was even more expensive than the French soldiers. The French female soldiers were only five points per person. Then, did you dare to say that the Italian soldiers, who were six points per person, were better than the Japanese soldiers, who were two points per person? It was completely impossible when the weapons were similar!
From this point of view, the so-called number of points for a soldier should not be based on their combat strength, but on their daily consumption, or in other words, according to the recruitment prices of various countries in history.
If that was the case, then it was reasonable.
In history, Japanese soldiers were famous for being cheap because Japan was poor to begin with. During World War II, it could not be considered a truly developed country. Human lives were worthless, but how worthless were Japanese soldiers? At that time, the Japanese people often joked that the life of each Japanese soldier was only worth fifteen cents, because when the Japanese military conscription, the cost of sending a conscription letter was worth fifteen cents.
Needless to say, the Soviet Union soldiers were famous for being gray animals. They didn't even need 15 cents. Just by giving a mandatory order, you had to bring your own rations to fight. Tsk tsk, how could that not be cheap?
In Italy during World War II, although they were not good at fighting, it was said that the salary and treatment were really good. Their lives were very comfortable. It seemed that many times, the food was better than the food in the country. How could it not be expensive?
Then, why were the soldiers of the United States the most expensive, even more expensive than the soldiers of the United States, who were known as the Young Master Soldiers?
This was probably related to the level of education.
As everyone knew, before World War II, the country of Dé was the first country in the world to have universal higher education. At that time, the education level of the citizens of Dé was the highest in the world.
Because of this, the education level of the soldiers in the country was also quite high. At least before 1943, they had the highest average education level in the world's military.
It could be said that during the early stages of World War II, high school soldiers were worse than dogs. Colleges were everywhere. If this was included, it was not a problem for the price of soldiers to be a little higher. You could not let a soldier with an average high school education receive the same salary as a soldier with an average middle school or even primary school education.
In fact, the education level of the Japanese elite infantry during this period was not low. Most of them had the level of junior high school students, but that was only the first few divisions. The later divisions had a much lower education level, which dragged down the overall education level of the Japanese army, so it was cheap.
However, a high level of education did not mean that their combat effectiveness was high. For example, the Italian soldiers had a slightly higher level of education than the Japanese soldiers, but their combat effectiveness was just a joke.
Especially in the current situation, even if he recruited all the soldiers of the country, they might not be much stronger than the Japanese soldiers. Therefore, instead of spending so many points to recruit the soldiers of the country, it was better to continue recruiting cheap Japanese female soldiers. Then, the remaining points could be used to buy more powerful weapons, such as artillery, heavy machine guns, and so on. As for the soldiers of the country, it would depend on the situation. At most, when the need arose, he could recruit two of them to be technical soldiers or staff officers. After all, they had a high level of education.
In short, the recruitment price could not explain anything. At the very least, the combat strength of the soldiers did not seem to be directly related to the recruitment price.
Looking at the system in detail, the information of the female soldiers in the system was all digitized. For example, the female soldiers of the country of Dé. F * ck, ordinary soldiers actually had a bachelor's degree. No wonder!
There were also female soldiers from the United States and Ying countries. The average private soldier had a college degree. Wow, it was not low.
Looking at the Japanese female soldiers, the average private's education level was-technical secondary school. Alright, no wonder it was cheap.
The female soldiers of the Soviet Union…well, they were all junior high school students.
Seeing this, the situation was very obvious. The recruitment price was mainly based on the degree of education of the soldiers. Of course, there must be other criteria, but undoubtedly, education was the most important criteria.
What were the benefits of having a high education background? It might not immediately affect their combat strength, but if they were to operate technical troops, they would undoubtedly have an advantage.
For example, he could now recruit motorised infantry, which was a low-level technical unit. After all, they had to know how to drive.
Then, according to the calculation above, the recruitment price of the motorised infantry was higher than that of the ordinary infantry. Take the Japanese soldiers as an example. The motorised infantry in Japan was four points higher than the ordinary infantry. In other words, a motorised infantry cost 2 4, which was six points per person.
Of course, if he didn't directly recruit the mechanized infantry, but instead upgraded the original infantry, it was also possible. He only needed to add 4 points.
These four points referred to the cost of skill input. In other words, each infantryman had to re-input the combat skills of the motorized infantryman, including driving, repairing, and so on. It would cost a total of four points.
Of course, you could also let the ordinary infantry learn by themselves without spending these points. However, that would be too time-consuming. It was better to spend points to buy skills, input them directly, and learn them instantly. The time cost saved was often difficult to measure in terms of cost-effectiveness.
It seemed like it was a bit of a scam to spend points to upgrade skills. After all, he could learn by himself, but in reality, he wasn't.
It should be known that the motorized infantry seemed to have just added trucks and motorcycles. It seemed very simple, but the weapons and tactics had also changed. In order to do this well, the soldiers had to have a higher education level. At the very least, they had to be middle school students. Otherwise, they would not be able to play well. The simplest question was, if the car broke down on the road, would you repair it?
The motorization of the Second World War was not something that could be expected to be powerful. Mechanical equipment like trucks and motorcycles had a high failure rate and could really make one collapse.
Although you could also let ordinary infantry carry trucks and turn them into temporary motorised infantry, it was completely different from real motorised infantry. The difference in combat power between the two was very obvious.
Without a teacher to teach you, where are you going to learn these things? However, if you used 4 points to learn these, then you would know all these things and could directly be someone else's teacher.
One could imagine that if everyone in a motorised infantry platoon knew how to drive and repair cars, and knew their weapons and vehicle performance like the back of their hands, would their combat effectiveness be the same?
Also, if the situation was urgent and the motorized infantry was needed immediately, would you let them learn it slowly for a few months or immediately? Of course, he would know it immediately!
In other words, if he recruited a Japanese motorised infantry, it would be 2 4, which required 6 points. If he recruited a German motorised infantry, it would be 10 1, which was 11 points.
How was it different? It was very simple. The soldiers of Dé had high academic qualifications, so it was easier to upgrade to a technical soldier. Therefore, the initial academic qualifications would be more valuable as they progressed, especially for high-tech soldiers like tanks. It was really the most expensive Dé soldier who made a profit.
Of course, the Japanese soldiers were not all that bad. This was only the recruitment price of the land army. There was also the air force and the navy. The initial price of the soldiers was also different. The recruitment price of the Japanese navy was not much cheaper than the country's navy, but their combat strength was second only to the country's navy, ranking third.
However, that had nothing to do with the present. What he needed the most now was the army, air force, and navy. He would talk about them later.
The key now was to recruit soldiers. Yes, they had to recruit soldiers!
