Well the sadhus did defend Hindus but some of them were also traitors (example: the ones who served as mercenaries for Muslim rulers or the ones who fought for Abdali against the Marathas).
Some instances of these warrior ascetic heroism include the defense of the Naga Sadhus of the Gokulnath mandir when Abdalis men attacked it, their numerous attempts to regain Rama Jhanmabhoomi, one especially memorable one was the bloody battle they fought after which they gained control of Hanuman Garhi.
A good book to publish would be about all the attempts made by Hindu warriors and common people to regain Rama Jhanmabhoomi through the centuries.
