Correct. They also become rabidly angry if you do so much as indirectly insult Rimuru.

The Yamigaeri are. They were charged with the position specifically by Rimuru's executive council. It also makes sense, as Shion is their leader, and Rimuru's original bodyguard, the unit she leads would naturally become his personal guard. What's more, they are immortal, so their ability to protect Rimuru even onto death makes them useful as living shields.

The Black Corps are more of Rimuru's Black Ops forces. They are his strongest unit. In fact, its implied that if you removed Velgrynd and Rudra, they could destroy the entire Eastern Empire by themselves.
