Who are "Na'arei Sarei ha'Medinos"?

1.

Rashi: They are children of mixtures. All officers of other nations put their sons under [Achav's] hand as guarantors that they will not rebel.

2.

Radak: They are the children of the great officers. The custom is that they grow up in the king's Chatzeros. The Navi taught that you need not bring [foot] soldiers and cavalry from outside; Na'arei Sarei ha'Medinos will suffice.

3.

Malbim citing Mahari: They are the servants of the officers, who are lowly and few.

What is the meaning of "Mi Yesor ha'Milchamah"?

Radak: Who will arrange the chariot? The head of the war is called Oser, for he begins, and the nation after him.

3.

Malbim: Who will count the soldiers and conduct them?

4)

Why did Achav ask who will command the war? Surely it is he - he is the king!
