The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette novel Chapter 1573

Chapter 1573

5 a.m.

The sun had just risen in the east, and reveille blared in Dorodo’s city defense army base.

3,000 city defense soldiers stood on the field, neatly dressed. They began running in a neat line on the field at the word of command.

The team of 3,000 men ran orderly. Most importantly, they ran for a full hour.

A five-kilometer jog for an hour was Dorodo’s city defense army daily routine.

They had to jog five kilometers every day, regardless of weather, rain, or snow. Besides that, no one was allowed to take the day off.

Not only regular soldiers must run, but also officers of all ranks.

The three chiliarchs were running on the field with their respective troops.

Wesley was the one at the front.

The two younger men at the back were the other chiliarchs-Anthony and Gregory.

Wesley was 55 years old, Anthony was 35, and Gregory was only 32.

Neither Anthony nor Gregory was married, let alone had kids. Only Wesley married and had a family in Dorodo. He also enlisted his only son, George, into the city defense army.

The 22-year-old George did not cause major trouble in the city defense army but was not up to any good either.

Many city defense soldiers had much to complain about him.

However, with the chiliarch Wesley on top, it did not matter, even if the soldiers complained.

“Commander Jokerman, you’re old! You can’t keep up!”

Anthony came up behind him and said with a laugh.

Wesley immediately turned gloomy and said, “I’m old, but I can do this job for a few more years. You two can never catch up with me!”
