Let me explain the stat distribution and my respective choices. You get max 11 points in Defense, which is a necessity. Your Bodyguards will stay alive for a longer time, have more health, and aid you in your battles for longer.
You also get max Rank, which is another important stat. Finally, you also get 8/8 Bodyguards in your setup, along with decent investment in Attack and Life/Musou.

How to set up your Bodyguards in Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered
Leveling up your Bodyguards is just one part of the act, since you’ll have to command them properly. For safe setups, the best option is to have them on Defense Command.
You should also equip the entire unit with Bow Weapons, and follow that with Huang’s Bow. This increases both the offensive and defensive potential of your Bodyguards.
That’s more or less it when it comes to getting an optimized Bodyguard setup to use on your adventures.
