THE BLOOD OF JAVA
BLOOD OF JAVA: Episode 83
"Gusti Patih, we're facing important news." Said a soldier to Patih Kinjiri.
"Please. What important news do you bring?"
"I'm sorry about Gusti Patih."
The soldier showed him a map he had made with one of his friends.
"We heard that Maha Patih Jogo Rogo, from Mangkon Rogo Kingdom, fled along with his subordinates through several villages and also forest paths."
".....They also went through several paths that they had prepared for a long time. But the line was guarded by the army of the defected Mangkon Rogo Kingdom." Obviously the soldier.
"Where are they now?"
"That's our problem Gusti Prabu. That path we can't cross with very, very tight guard."
Patih Kinjiri then ordered the soldiers to give letters to the guards of the line. Patih Kinjiri wants to negotiate with Maha Patih Jogo Rogo. Because sooner or later, Maha Patih Jogo Rogo will also definitely attack.
With the army and the subordinates of the kingdom who had defected, Maha Patih Jogo Rogo certainly had his own strategy to carry out the attack.
"They must be preparing an attack against Prabu Garan Darang. Throw a letter to them. Do not make contacts that endanger you. Just throw the letter. After that you go back to your respective duties." Patih Kinjiri's orders to the two soldiers.
"Gusti Patih. Gusti Patih's orders will be carried out now."
"Execute. And be careful."
"Gusti Patih."
The two soldiers went straight to Bamantara to carry out orders from Patih Kinjiri. Because now, Bamantara was the temporary leader of the two soldiers. Bamantara immediately carried out the order.
After the letter was completed, Bamantara immediately ordered the two soldiers to go along with some of their friends towards the intended path. And left his letter to the troops of Maha Patih Jogo Rogo.
While waiting for the next news, Patih Kinjiri along with others began to hold training for the young villagers who wanted to fight with them. They will all be placed in every village they have conquered.
Patih Kinjiri wanted to create resistance groups in every village. So that the number of forces of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela in this place can increase. And he could execute all his plans much more easily.
Prabu Jabang Wiyagra also could not send too many troops, because the landing path of troops in the waters is also not safe. Troops from the Dark Kingdom of Ngampar have also been on guard in the territorial waters of the Mangkon Rogo Kingdom.
The only safe route for the delivery of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela has been fenced by troops from the Dark Kingdom of Ngampar. So now Prabu Jabang Wiyagra must find another route to send troops and logistics assistance.
Fortunately, Patih Kinjiri and his troops are used to farming and they have been taught how to survive in battle when there are obstacles to sending aid. So that they are not surprised by this kind of problem.
In this place Patih Kinjiri and his troops also get help from the villagers, starting from food and boards. Because in this place a lot of people are experts in making buildings. Including the fortification.
Some villages that were originally just small and unorganized places, had now turned into a majestic kingdom. A giant-sized fort is planned to be built by Patih Kinjiri and his troops.
In making this giant fortress, of course, it will take a very long time. Because they are limited in energy. When it comes to resources, most villages under the rule of the Mangkon Rogo Kingdom have abundant resources.
They could make use of all the resources available to build the planned fortress should be able to be completed within three months. When finished, then they are really ready to welcome the arrival of the invasion of the Mangkon Rogo Kingdom.
Singo Rogo then took the initiative to participate in the construction of the giant fortress. He met Patih Kinjiri at the main headquarters. The one in a small village, where first Patih Kinjiri and Utari Gita lived in the territory of Mangkon Rogo Kingdom.
"What interest did Ki Singo Rogo come to?" Ask Patih Kinjiri.
"I have a great idea Gusti Patih. To build that gigantic fortress, I only need to finish it within seven days and seven nights. And there's no need to involve so many villagers." Answer Singo Rogo.
Patih Kinjiri was surprised by Singo Rogo's remarks. For it is impossible to build a great fortress in seven days and seven nights. Even if the villagers and the entire army were deployed, it would not necessarily be able to solve everything.
"Relax Gusti Patih. I have an army of softeners who can finish everything within seven days and seven nights."
"But..."
"Gusti Patih is hesitant? I'll prove everything. I just need a offering for those softened troops."
It is not the intention of Patih Kinjiri to doubt the ability of Singo Rogo, just that all of it is clearly not able to be accommodated by his head. Because it is clear, the science of Patih Kinjiri with Singo Rogo is far different.
Singo Rogo is much more experienced than Patih Kinjiri. But the proposal from Singo Rogo is worth a try. If it fails, then he doesn't need to discuss it anymore. If successful, then Patih Kinjiri can complete his task much faster than he expected.
"How's Gusti Patih?"
"alright. I allowed Ki Singo Rogo to do it. And I will ask the villagers for help to help Ki Singo Rogo prepare everything that Ki Singo Rogo needs." Jawah Patih Kinjiri's.
Singo Rogo was pleased that his proposal was well received by Patih Kinjiri. He just wanted to help ease the burden of Patih Kinjiri which was already piling up. A Patih who plays like a king.
There are many tasks, but the time is very limited. Time goes on and goes on very fast. If Patih Kinjiri is also not quick to take action, it is certain that their troops will lose the fight.
Because this fight is not only a matter of who is strong and has high knowledge, but also who is smart in dealing with opponent strategies. Prabu Garan Darang is a cunning king and also smart in strategizing war.
Even though his army is now in chaos, but with his cleverness, it does not rule out the possibility that he has a surprise plan. He may have a difficult to guess. Because now, the spies sent by Patih Kinjiri began to have difficulties.
The Mangkon Rogo Kingdom troops who were still siding with Prabu Garan Darang were now much more vigilant than before. Moreover, they also get additional troops from Prabu Bambang Pura. So that Prabu Garan Darang troops have now increased.
As for the army of defectors, they were all scattered into some hard-to-reach areas. So that Patih Kinjiri is not easy to contact all of them. Moreover, they are also very closed. And it is highly unlikely that the spy Patih Kinjiri could be close to them.
His only good chance is Maha Patih Jogo Rogo. Even though Patih Kinjiri does not know the location of Maha Patih Jogo Rogo's hideout for sure, but at least he knows where Maha Patih Jogo Rogo went.
And you could say, the number of Maha Patih Jogo Rogo troops can greatly help him in facing Prabu Garan Darang troops, if Maha Patih Jogo Rogo wants to join him.
