The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 1849

"Stop!" Sean ordered under his breath.

The city defense soldiers at the front stopped, and the city defense soldiers behind naturally followed suit.

"Zander, keep guard here while I take two city defense soldiers to investigate. If I confirm that the bandits are the

ones who took Dorodo's residents, I'll signal you with a flare!" Sean said to Zander.

Zander wanted to say something, but Sean had already headed that way with two city defense soldiers.

Sean did not take these 200 city defense soldiers with him because it would be too loud with so many people riding

together. The bandits would notice them before they got close. It was why he approached so quietly with only two

soldiers.

After confirming they were their targets, he could create chaos with his men to delay them while firing a flare to

inform Zander to pursue them with the rest.

200 city defense soldiers and Zander were about three kilometers away from the camp.

Sean and two city defense soldiers were now about 500 meters away.

"Dismount. We'll close in on foot!" Sean ordered.

"Yes!"

The two city defense soldiers answered under their breath. Then the three of them dismounted and approached

the camp on foot, finding that it was indeed the camp of a stray mercenary regiment.

There were 40 or so men in the stray mercenary regiment. Sean found out the number of people in the stray

mercenary regiment by counting the horses tied to the outskirts of the camp. These mercenaries were drinking and

bragging around the fire, and the camp was bustling.

Sean and two city defense soldiers snuck in and found two dozen poor women sitting together tied up with ropes

when they reached the center.

These poor women ranged from 11 or 12 years old to over 30. The 11 or 12-year-old girls had gone to work in the

fields outside the city with the adults and were kidnapped because they failed to escape in time. Regardless of age,

they were sobbing as if the sky had collapsed.

"Stop crying! F*ck you. I'll kill you if you cry again!" A drunken strong man yelled with a riding crop in his hand.

All the women were silent. None dared to speak.

After confirming it, Sean ordered the two city defense soldiers beside him, "You set fire to all the tents. And you cut

the horses' ropes and let them all go. Without them, these d*mn b*stards can't escape!"

"Yes!"

The two city defense soldiers nodded immediately and went off into the night.

Sean crept closer to the women.

Sean's approach frightened the women. They showed expressions of horror and cried.

"Don't be afraid. I've come to save you! I'm the commander-in-chief of Dorodo's city defense army, Sean Lennon! I

will cut your ropes but don't escape yet. Follow my instructions. Don't worry. Someone will save you soon."

Hearing Sean's words, the women were so excited that they looked at Sean with anticipation.

Sean pulled out a black military dagger from around his leg and tried to cut the rope that held the women together.

Just then, two strong men suddenly walked over drunkenly.

"Hehehe... I like older women. What's your type..."

"I like younger ones. Older ones are boring."

"What do you know? Older women are fun."

The two strong men spoke crudely as they came up to the group of women and began picking.
