"I know the name of every trusted aide under my command. You've been in my Personal Guard Army for over a year now. How do you feel about it?" Zhao Feng asked with a slight smile.
"To be able to serve Your Majesty is the greatest honor I could wish for."
"Your Majesty has given me a new lease on life, and I swear to repay this debt with my own," Han Chenyan said with a solemn expression.
For him, as for all the surrendered soldiers reformed from the Penal Battalion, Zhao Feng had indeed given them a new lease on life. He allowed them to live with dignity. Even if they died in battle for Qin, they could still secure a pension for their families. Compared to their former fate as slaves—dying ignored and left exposed in the wilderness—this was already an immense honor.
