After getting news from Prabu Jabang Wiyagra, Patih Kinjiri immediately ordered all his troops to stand guard back at their respective places. Because Patih Kinjiri is also suspicious of the movement made by Maha Patih Jogo Rogo.
Maha Patih Jogo Rogo did not keep his promise. Though he had already agreed to help her in the battle against Prabu Bambang Pura, he did not come at all. There was not even a single envoy he had sent to this defensive fortress. He was definitely planning something.
"Sorry Gusti Patih, should we attack Maha Patih Jogo Rogo now? Because I'm worried that Maha Patih Jogo Rogo is planning an attack." Bamantara.
"He's planning something, Bamantara. But we don't have a good reason to attack. Prabu Jabang Wiyagra has given orders to us to keep this fortress."
"....If we get out of the fortress, then it is very likely that the void in this place will be exploited by the enemy." Answer Patih Kinjiri.
"Yes. I understand Gusti Patih. Then what are we gonna do next?" Ask Bamantara.
"We need to put security in this place. The next attack will have to wait for another order from Prabu Jabang Wiyagra. Currently Prabu Jabang Wiyagra is trying to negotiate with Prabu Bambang Pura."
"Gusti Patih."
"Now return to your position. For a time, Utari Gita's leadership will be taken over by Ki Mangku Cendrasih."
"Ready Gusti Patih."
The fortress area still looks very messy due to the battle. Lots of big stones, arrows, swords, shields, spears, and even the bodies of fallen humans still can not be cleaned all of them. Because right now all the troops are concentrating their forces to protect the fort.
Maha Patih Jogo Rogo is the one to watch out for right now. Because he has violated the cooperation agreement with Patih Kinjiri. In fact, Patih Kinjiri has also given him weapons and also some logistics to support the strength of his troops.
But after all the good that Patih Kinjiri did to Maha Patih Jogo Rogo, he did not repay him in any way either. He disappeared when he was really needed. Fortunately, Mangku Cendrasih and Pangeran Rawaja Pati came with reinforcements.
If the battle only relied on the strength of Patih Kinjiri's forces, maybe Patih Kinjiri and all his troops had been completely pounded. Because the number of troops Prabu Bambang Pura very much. Coupled with their much more complete weaponry.
The position of this fort is in an area of hills and dense forests, so there are many abundant resources. The villagers can grow crops. There are also many wild animals and wild animals. So that the villagers can hunt for the troops who are struggling.
Inside his base, Patih Kinjiri had already started devising a new strategy to make the defense in this fortress even stronger. He helped some clever building to make designs and plans. The design and plan was to expand the reach of this fortress. Because in that way, Patih Kinjiri could expand his territory without having to raise the war flag.
Although there will still be disputes with wild warriors scattered throughout the territory of Mangkon Rogo Kingdom, but at least it can minimize the death of more troops. Avoided like anything, there will still be people who die. But there must still be an effort, no matter how small it is, to reduce the number of victims.
The troops that night stood guard in turns. From night to night, the place was never deserted. Because now the guard has been tightened. Even super tight. There is not the slightest gap for the enemy to enter, or infiltrate. Patih Kinjiri also gave a special cipher to his troops.
The goal is, if until there is an enemy who infiltrated by disguising himself as one of the members of the army, then the original troops can distinguish it with a secret code. Prince Rawaja Pati also assigned his troops to oversee the fort area throughout the day and night.
Pangeran Rawaja Pati's troops move around the entire defensive fort area, to keep an eye out for suspicious movements. Their vigilance is not only Maha Patih Jogo Rogo. But also Maha Patih Kana Raga. Because he must be planning something for revenge.
He must be furious after knowing that Prabu Bambang Pura was arrested and detained in the palace of the Kingdom of Wiyagra Malela. He could have made a move without orders. Because right now, all orders are in his hands. And he has the right to make a decision as a Maha Patih, as well as a representative of Prabu Bambang Pura.
Maha Patih Kana Raga is a very loyal person to Prabu Bambang Pura. He has served for years. And he was also the one who helped Prabu Bambang Pura in building and developing the Dark Kingdom Ngampar, until it became the great kingdom that it is today.
The loyalty of Maha Patih Kana Raga is no longer in doubt. He will certainly justify all means in order to continue the struggle of Prabu Bambang Pura to conquer the Mangkon Rogo Kingdom completely. The Dark Kingdom Ngampar army was also still very much. The remnants of the existing troops are also reportedly ready for war.
The news was received by Patih Kinjiri from a young man who became a spy. The young man received news from villagers who lived in another village. If now, Maha Patih Kana Raga has sent a lot of troops through the waterway with large ships that the Dark Kingdom Ngampar has.
Ports in the Mangkon Rogo Kingdom area have almost all been filled with cargo ships and ships carrying troops from the Dark Kingdom Ngampar. Reportedly they are also selected troops. Because they have a high and filled physique. The sign tied to their heads also indicates that they are not ordinary troops.
Patih Kinjiri was a little confused by all the news. Because he could do nothing but survive in this gigantic fortress together with his army. If he carried out an attack, then he was considered to be disputing the order. If he had stayed silent, he would have been worried because his troops were now still exhausted.
Many soldiers were also victims, not long buried. And all the people in this place are still mourning the loss of hundreds of people who fought on the battlefield. But the most important thing for Patih Kinjiri is to make sure the mental army remains in good condition.
