Yeger Sobac was indeed a fortunate man. Although his ancestors were from a prestigious imperial family, they had declined, making his background no different from that of an ordinary minor noble or even a commoner. Yet, he enjoyed a prosperous official career with a bright future. In his previous life, before being trained by the Volunteer Army, he had become an Imperial Grand General before the age of fifty. Of course, just as he was one step away from becoming a Marshal, he suffered a series of defeats under the repeated assaults of Teacher Yang, Old Tan, and the companions of the 830 Party. The Volunteer Army alone claimed the "heads" of thirteen dreadnoughts and two titans from his forces. Despite this, his Chief of Staff, adjutant, flagship captain, and even his security chief had been replaced several times, and he had changed flagships multiple times, yet he still fought on the front lines "suppressing the rebels" until he was finally captured, thus earning the title of "Good Friend of the People of Earth." Certainly, as he had never harmed civilians or prisoners of war, and had even provided relief to disaster victims with military rations on several occasions, he could generally be considered a gentleman. Consequently, even during his two years as a prisoner, he was not mistreated and even gained a little weight.
