If you find a code that is accessing to the health of the selected units, you can make a script to change the health of selected units.

Here is a cheat table for Stronghold 3 that does this:

The code that you have posted is writing to the health when it's changing. You need to find a code that is accessing to the health when you select a unit. (Or any code that you can use to calculate the address of the selected unit's health.)
