Piece of text soldier attached to chart (9)

I believe the answer is:

paragraph

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'piece of text' is the definition.
'paragraph' can be an answer for 'text' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'piece of' bit.

'soldier attached to chart' is the wordplay.
'soldier' becomes 'para' (para is a kind of soldier**).
'attached to' says to put letters next to each other.
'chart' becomes 'graph' (I've seen this before).
'para'+'graph'='PARAGRAPH'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for paragraph that I've seen before include "Subdivision of text" , "Division of a text" , "Unit of text" , "Chunk of text" , "Section of writing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
