Money is something no one ever finds excessive, but Malin wrote what he knew into a handbook because he saw in these soldiers glimpses of his own past experiences.
He saw soldiers willing to die for their families, the courage to fight to the death for friends, and noble officers thick-facedly seeking his decisions for the sake of their subordinates.
Therefore, he handed the handbook over to those two commanders. Malin initially did not know their ranks, but in the morning, all the soldiers and officers saluted them, their eyes filled with unmistakable respect—clearly, they were their commanders.
Of course, they later introduced themselves, and Malin learned that there was a position called political commissar, ostensibly established to boost the troops' morale.
This position often required being at the forefront, and only the bravest in a legion could don the red and black military uniform.
