"You are soldiers now. There are pros and cons to that. Given your current circumstances, you know very well that the things you do in the future may give you opportunities to earn merit. If you do earn merit, perhaps one day you will have a chance, like other soldiers, to enjoy normal leave." Jiang Yan Hai raised his head and looked at them.
