The Gojalisuta War Part 15
In an instant, the once blue and bright sky suddenly became gloomy and overcast.
Ditya Mahodara who was in the middle of everything, the guards by his side split, and he lost all ability to rule.
An army of that size instantly lost its way and became chaotic. The soldiers began to fight for themselves and were unable to distinguish between north, south, east, and west, resulting in numerous casualties in a short period of time.
On the other hand, the Dwarawati army under the command of Raden Partajumena was a whole machine. They besieged and attacked, biting after bite from the forces of Ditya Mahodara. Raden Partajumena's command skills were at the pinnacle of the art of war.
His brain was like a machine, calculating each step accurately. Every little detail on the battlefield could not escape his eyes, and was used to his advantage.
Ditya Mahodara's army was immediately in danger, and was on the verge of collapse.
At the crucial moment, Patih Pancadnyana finally led his troops and rushed forward to reinforce them.
The arrival of the Patih Pancadnyana troops in the last minutes saved Ditya Mahodara who was on the verge of collapse.
The high ability and quality of Trajutresna's army's body is displayed to the maximum. Although they were always in danger and suffered many casualties, no one escaped and all of them fought valiantly.
After Patih Pancadnyana arrived, he took command and had the scattered Ditya Mahodara forces regroup. With an additional 150 thousand men from the Patih Pancadnyana army, it caused a lot of pressure for the Mandura and Dwarawati alliance army.
Seeing the situation did not go smoothly, Raden Partajumena immediately ordered his troops to separate.
Patih Pancadnyana did not pursue them, and after gathering together with the Ditya Mahodara troops, they sauntered back to where the barn was.
This great battle took place in 3 waves, and lasted the entire day with both sides losing over 100 thousand people. Astana Gandamana became the land of death. Fresh blood stains the soil, and it will never be used to grow crops.
After the battle, the Dwarawati army arranged to collect the corpse and bury it. They gathered all the weapons and armor that could be used and found the horses scattered about.
When night falls, it starts raining. Slowly, the precipitation grew larger and became a storm, enveloping the entire Astana Gandamana.
Rainwater washed the blood on the battlefield, and the red viscous water now flowed into the river, staining it. After the storm, there was a huge change in the land, which seemed like nothing had happened.
In this battle, Trajutresna's army managed to break through from the cage that had been set up by Mandura's forces. Even though they suffered a huge loss, they still managed to.
The Mandura Army was feeling depressed. Not only did the enemy escape, but their general Resi Gunadewa had also died. Based on the battle setting, when non-campaign leaders like the Gunadewa Rishis died, after the battle ended, they would not have the chance to appear in the wilderness and completely disappear.
In the residence of the ruler, Raden Partajumena's face was dark and gloomy.
All the generals and advisers sitting on 2 rows of 6 stone benches, looked very serious. Heru Cokro, as the representative of the player, was invited to this meeting. He sat quietly in the corner, and said nothing.
Based on the calculations of military advisers, in addition to the total annihilation of the Gunadewa Rishis forces, Patih Pragota has lost more than 10 thousand, Arya Setyaki lost 40 thousand, Raden Wisata lost 30 thousand, and in total, Arya Setyaki lost 40 thousand, the army of Dwarawati lost almost 150 thousand.
On the strength side of the player, Heru Cokro made his own calculations. Out of the 7000 infantry led by Ken Arok, there were about 4000 who managed to leave the battlefield.
In the Battle of Gojalisuta, the 10 thousand cavalry Heru Cokro brought was half of what Java Dwipa had, and losing 20% in a day was absolutely heartbreaking.
“We lost this battle because 40 thousand players forced out. Yesterday Jendra told me about it, but I wasn't too concerned about it and so we lost.
What is surprising is that Raden Partajumena did not blame his generals or advisers and bore all the blame.
Arya Setyaki and the others turned their gaze towards Heru Cokro who was sitting in the corner. Of all that, Patih Pragota's gaze was the friendliest as he had witnessed the strength of the player's army.
Being the focus of all these generals and leaders, Heru Cokro trembled. He stood up and said, “Raden Partajumena, the player who landed in the barn place is unexpected and unpredictable. In a short day for them to take action is impossible to maintain.
"Fuckin' thick!" Everyone agrees.
Heru Cokro did not try to find an excuse for Raden Partajumena, despite his poor planning, but his leadership changed everything.
The army of Ditya Mahodara had 50 thousand men left, a staggering number similar to the number of people missing from the Gunadeva Rishis.
"Raden Partajumena, Trajutresna's army has come out, so what should we do next?" ask Arya Setyaki.
Raden Partajumena looked at the map, and a long silence followed.
The meeting just ended like this. With Raden Partajumena's ability, he couldn't make any shocking plans in such a short amount of time either, so he could only look at the map.
After Heru Cokro came down from the mountain, he reported the situation to the allies, and everyone was equally speechless. Because it was like this, Heru Cokro asked Ki Ageng Archery to predict what would happen. Only until late at night Ki Ageng Archery went from the tent Heru Cokro.
The content of their secret conversation was something no outsider would know.
After rushing to the barn spot, other than the 70 thousand remaining there, Trajutresna's army had about 300 thousand people left.
Compared to the armies of the Mandura and Dwarawati alliance, they had lost far more, approaching 170 thousand. Purely, Ditya Mahodara has lost more than 100 thousand. Including those who attacked the camp of the Gunadeva Rishis, they have paid a heavy price.
That place was unable to defend such a large army.
In desperation, Patih Pancadnyana arranged for a general to lead 50 thousand people to take over the Gunadewa Resi camp and also Ditya Mahodara to bring 150 thousand people to camp. The remaining 100 thousand will remain there.
Patih Pancadnyana moved his headquarters to the barn, and after resting, the first thing he did was clear the path. This is to obtain a continuous supply of grain.
The supply of grain where the barn can only last for a month.
Compared to Patih Pancadnyana, Raden Partajumena's reaction was more rapid and decisive.
Just as Patih Pancadnyana had set 100 thousand men out of the rift to destroy the Arya Prabawa army, he had received Raden Partajumena's order to bring his men out.
