THE BLOOD OF JAVA
JAVANESE BLOOD: EPISODE 273
The pelvis, who felt himself strong, tried the knowledge he got from the Chairman of the black robe group. Panggul along with twenty of his men came to several soldiers who were on guard in a village. Panggul challenged at least eight soldiers of the Wiyagra Malela Kingdom who were there. At first the soldiers were silent because they already knew that Panggul wanted to try his knowledge.
But over time the behavior of the pelvis is unacceptable. The pelvis even spit on the soldiers, so that the emotions of the soldiers were provoked, and then put up a fight.
"Hey stupid soldier! If you're really a mandraguna, let's fight me now!" Shouted Panggul to the soldiers.
These soldiers tried to respond to that casually. They even tried to speak nicely with the Hip, lest he continuously make a fuss. But Panggul instead wasted such a good opportunity. The pelvis even more arrogant and arrogant, because it already feels that he is invincible. These eight soldiers tried to calm themselves down, and did not bother with what the Pelvis was doing.
But the name is also ordinary people, they can certainly be angry and do not accept if invited continuously. Especially when Panggul brought the big name Prabu Jabang Wiyagra.
"Hey! Jabang Wiyagra was just a foolish young man who did not deserve to be a king! He's better suited to be a horse stall cleaner!" Say the Hip with a big laugh.
These soldiers also ended up getting furious, and did not accept the words thrown by the Panggul. The eight soldiers were finally forced to pull out their swords, then attack the Hip blindly. The pelvis tried to convolve, and dodged the soldiers' attacks. But the ability he had was nothing compared to those soldiers.
Although the Hip is not capable of sharp weapons, it does not mean that he has no weaknesses. The pelvis was hit by a kick from one of the soldiers who attacked him, to make himself fall to the ground, and embarrassed made. The unaccepted pelvis immediately ordered all his men to attack the eight soldiers. The pelvis felt greatly underestimated by the soldiers who attacked it.
Twenty men, against eight men. But the results are still not satisfactory at all. All the members of the Panggul if in the dark hands of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. These soldiers are famous for being very strong and not easily defeated, because they are graduates of Padepokan Ageng Reksa Pati. And educated directly by Mangku Cendrasih. So they have more power to face their opponents.
The pelvis attempted to attack the eight soldiers. But again he fell to the ground. The pelvis became even more embarrassed, as it was he who challenged the soldiers first. Before that, he was very confident that he would win the fight. But as a result, Panggul remains crummy and stupid, in front of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. So now it is the soldiers who laugh at him.
"How's Ki? Already satisfied?" Ask one of the soldiers.
The pelvis only grumbled in annoyance, as he had already lost by a landslide. Although there was not the slightest injury on his body, still Panggulbs had lost, because he had managed to fall many times. These soldiers still look fine. The pelvis was silent, without answering a word. The pelvis was completely embarrassed in front of many people. Even the villagers who were there laughed at him.
"Please." A soldier replied briefly.
The pelvis eventually forced itself from there, along with the moon of his men. Panggul's own men also felt very embarrassed, because their chairman had really become a coward. The pelvis, which usually does not give up easily, now prefers to retreat, simply because it fell several times to the ground. And that is the most shameful thing for the children of the pelvis. They became upset and disappointed with the Hip, who had now lost.
The soldiers sat back in their place. There are so many villagers who do not expect, if the soldiers of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela really have the soul of a true soldier. Because it should be, if these soldiers wanted to, they could have killed Panggul at that very moment. But they didn't do it at all. Even the sick asked their replies, they only answered briefly.
"We are soldiers. We're not killers. Our job is to protect, not finish."
It was indeed taught by Mangku Cendrasih, so that the soldiers of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela did not become arrogant. Mangku Cendrasih educated them all to be good soldiers. Because all this time, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela were famous for their cruelty. Mangku Cendrasih wants to dismiss the skewed opinion of the community about it. Because it can damage the authority of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela itself.
The upbringing of the Padepokan Ageng Reksa Pati indeed gave birth to many soldiers who were much smarter than the previous soldiers. Because they are well educated in thought. It was very different from the previous soldiers, who were mostly educated because of the violence. This is because the soldiers of the previous generation were formed due to war and division. They tend to have a hard nature.
While the soldiers of the present generation of Wiyagra Malela Kingdom, were educated in a much calmer time. Especially after the establishment of Padepokan Ageng Reksa Pati, the training of the soldiers was much more organized and well conditioned. And this is what is produced. The soldiers were much calmer in the face of the situation and conditions. They do not care in addressing a problem that lies ahead of them. So they are hard to beat.
But even so, they still cannot avoid violence. Because if Prabu Jabang Wiyagra orders them to behave cruelly, then they will also bring up their respective cruel sides. Whereas when dealing with the Pelvis, these soldiers have the right to take action. One of them is to let the pelvis go from that place. So that nothing more detrimental happens.
If Prabu Jabang Wiyagra knew about the attack carried out by Panggul and his group, of course the soldiers would get a reprimand. But now Prabu Jabang Wiyagra is not here. So they prefer to accept what the Pelvis has done and said to them. They all even hope that the pelvis will be aware of what he has been doing all this time. Bloodshed will no longer occur.
After experiencing various kinds of battles and wars, the soldiers learned more about how to prevent war between groups from happening. Panggul and his group not only fought the soldiers, but he also fought other bandit groups, so that the hunting area was more widespread. And the pelvis can benefit more than usual.
Although the soldiers let the Hip go, but they did not let go of the Hip just like that. They keep an eye on the movements made by the Pelvis and his group. Little by little the soldiers had also started to suppress the movements made by the bandit groups. In a way, make a lot of care posts, in areas that are still not widely inhabited by the community.
