To command the Recruits, you need to hire them first:

Update 1.9.0 introduced the ability to manage and create teams for multiplayer. The newly added team menu can be accessed using the configurable keybind U or through the command screen. In this menu, you can create or inspect your own team, or view the list of existing teams in your world.

• Team Creation:

To create a new team, you need a banner and a name. The banner cannot be blank and must be unique. You cannot use banners or names from other teams. Creating a team will cost you 10 emeralds (or the configurable currency) 

• Team Inspection:

If you have created a team, you can now inspect it through the main menu.
 

In the team inspection screen, you can view information about your team, such as the current number of players and NPCs, a list of all players, the currently used banner, and the team leader. The team leader can also edit, manage, and delete the team from this screen.

Team members can also inspect the team from this screen, but they can only leave the team from here.

• List of Teams:

The team list screen displays all teams that are saved in the world. Players who are not in a team can send a join request to any team.

• Adding Players:

If players have sent a join request through the teams list menu, the team leader can add them to the team using the 'Manage' button in the team inspection screen. Note that the players need to be online and next to each other.

• Removing Players:

The team leader can remove a player from the team by typing the player's name in the edit box and pressing the 'Remove Player' button.
