Adipati Pandan Alas was very angry to hear the various successes of the Duchy of Pamotan, especially the problems that occurred in Bali and the rebuilding of the village of Thanda, many dukes were amazed at the success of Pamotan.
Even the efforts of Duke Pandan Alas who wanted to hit Kotaraja Majapahit with Pamotan was not successful.
Finally, the Duke of Pandan Alas gathered his aides to discuss the issue.
" How is Patih's brother, what should we do to prevent Pamotan from advancing, or so that Nanda Prabhu Bhatara Purwawisesa would send troops to Pamotan to warn the Duke,?" duke Pandan Alas asked in a furious tone.
" Maybe as good as his Gusti Adipati soon became this Majapahit King,!" patih Kebo Mundira.
" It seems that Nanda Prabhu is still reluctant to give up power over Majapahit to me, maybe Nanda Prabhu still feels strong because behind him there is the Duke of Pamotan, so he still persisted with his attitude,!" the Duke of Pandan Alas.
" Or we use a strategy like that ' ''to block the entourage of Pamotan, so that Pamotan looks disobedient to Kotaraja,!" patih Kebo Mundira.
" You mean what about Patih's brother, then,?" duke Pandan Alas asked not to understand.
" This Gusti Adipati, soon is the ulu bekti event, so of course Pamotan will send a messenger to deliver the tribute to Majapahit city, Majapahit city, so the messengers of Pamotan and his luggage we snatched and his guards we killed all of you, so it is seen that Pamotan will not submit and obey Majapahit,!' patih Kebo Mundira.
" Hemmph, it may be your suggestion that Patih's brother, but who can we rely on to intercept the entourage from Pamotan, is Patih's own brother,?" duke Pandan Alas asked Patih Kebo Mundira.
" I don't think I need to intervene because there are still many retainers of the Duchy of Pandan Alas who can do it, because of course the envoy is not the Duke of Pamotan himself, but the Duke of Pamotan himself, so it can still be handled by our people,!" patih Kebo Mundira.
" You're right Patih's brother of course Pamotan's messenger is only Tumenggung level, so the Tumenggung of Pandan Alas certainly able to overcome it,!" duke Pandan alas.
" Right Gusti Adipati, Tumenggung Pandan Alas certainly able to resolve the emissary from Pamotan,!" patih Kebo Mundira.
" Who can we trust to do the job, then,?" duke Pandan Alas.
" I thought Tumenggung Distance Jalu and Wiratanu were able to carry out the task in addition to twenty selected soldiers,!" patih Kebo Mundira.
" Well, how is Tumenggung Distance Jalu and Wiratanu are you willing to do this task,?" duke Pandan Alas asked Tumenggung Distance Jalu and Wiratanu.
" Sendika dawuh dukipai, we are willing to live the decree of Gusti Adipati, !" answer the two with an.
" Good, I hope that you two will not fail again like the time to block the Duke of DAhA's entourage at that time,!" duke Pandan Alas.
" For this time of course the group will be escorted with some Tumenggung only, ' said the Duke of Pandan Alas again.
" And for Tumenggung Surengrana strengthen the troops do not let us miss the previous time, also for Kakang Patih and Anakmas Mahisa Dara, I command as a messenger to deliver tribute to Kotaraja,!" there was an order from the Duke of Pandan Alas.
" Sendika dawuh Gusti Adipati,!" answer the loyal servants of Duke Pandan Alas.
Then immediately Tumenggung Distance Jalu prepared the soldiers who would be brought to block the messenger from Pamotan ulubekti bearer to Majapahit palace.
Tumenggung Distance Jalu and Tumenggung Wiratanu brought along twenty selected soldiers who would accompany them.
The two Tumenggung intended to intercept the messenger from Pamotan outside the city of the king of Majapahit.
*********
In Pamotan itself, the Duke of Pamotan is preparing a group of guides to the city of Majapahit which will be led by two twin Tumenggungs, namely Tumenggung Rapala and Rapada.
" The other half-full moon is the court in the city of the king of Majapahit with the receipt of tribute from the Dukes, therefore I order the Tumenggung Rapala and Rapada to escort the tribute Pamotan,!" duke of Pamotan.
" Sendika dawuh Gusti Adipati,!" said the two Tumenggung twins.
" But this time they will both be escorted by ten Balasewu Warriors, because the current situation is uncertain, It is likely that the backup of the emissary from Pamotan can occur, he said, so it's necessary to have a strict escort like never before,!" duke Pamotan said again.
" Pardon the servant Gusti Adipati, are not too few soldiers who accompanied Tumenggung Rapada and Rapala, ten soldiers are too few if according to the servant,!" patih Sengguruh.
" No Uncle Patih because it proved the ability of Balasewu soldiers with assistance during the war in Bali, and this time even sent to escort the tribute was a Warrior from Balasewu troops,!" there was an explanation from the Duke of Pamotan.
It is Senopati Lembu Petala who says,
" As good as his leader added one more person Gusti Adipati, and the advice of Tumenggung servant Srengganu also to the city of Majapahit was escort tribute from Pamotan this,!"
" Well, Tumenggung Srengganu I order will join Tumenggung Rapada and Rapala escort tribute from Pamotan,!" duke of Pamotan.
" Sendika dawuh Gusti Adipati, I am ready to live the decree of Gusti Adipati,!" said Tumenggung Srengganu while making respect.
" Tomorrow you can prepare everything,!" orders from the Duke of Pamotan.
Then the session in the title of Duke of Pamotan was disbanded after the Duke of Pamotan died the palace hall of the Duchy of Pamotan.
Meanwhile, those who have been appointed to carry out the task have been prepared.
Including the Lurah Warrior Balasewu who numbered ten people.
The ten Lurah Balasewu soldiers who had fought in Bali at the time of the war between the gel gel kingdom and Semprangan.
They were selected soldiers from the Balasewu warrior unit which was a soldier who commanded the hundred Balasewu soldiers
Sasra Bahu and Wiera. Tantra talked about their appointment escorting the tribute shipment.
" Adi Tantra, does Gusti Adipati have a hunch that the delivery of tribute this time will face obstacles so that the escort in the multiplication and from Balasewu unity,?" sasra Bahu asked her younger sister.
" Maybe kakang, given the many duchies that praise Pamotan too much, so it could be that the Duchy of Pandan Alas will take steps that do not fit the paugeran,!" answer Wiera Tantra.
" Maybe also, by blocking the tributary troupe and robbing it will certainly embarrass Pamotan in the eyes of Prabhu Bhatara purwawisesa, and there is a reason to attack the pamotan,!" sasra Bahu said again.
" Kang means that our departure this time will meet obstacles and could be difficult for us,!" wiera Tantra.
" It is therefore as good as we are facing Arya bor-bor to ask for your advice,!'' sasra Bahu said to her sister.
" It's good that your proposal is Kang, let's go to Uncle Arya's drill-drill, too,!" wiera Tantra.
The two then went to Arya's drill-bor at her residence.
After meeting the two of them, he said, then,
" Uncle drill-bor, we want to ask for your opinion and from uncle,!" sasra Bahu.
" Hehh, what kind of help do you guys need, right,?" arya asked drill-bor.
" Uncle, while in Bali right Uncle gave us a drink that can make us immune, so even this time departure we want to get the drinking water,!" wiera Tantra explained.
" Oh, if the problem is in the hands of Kanjeng Guru, I will ask him later,!" arya drill-bor.
" Hopefully tomorrow you've got us,!" arya said drill-bor again.
" Okay Uncle, tomorrow we'll be back here,!" sasra Bahu said again.
Both of them later died from the house of Kali Mayit's Ghost.
While Ghost Kali mayit after finding a request from his subordinates was immediately facing his lord, duke Pamotan.
After meeting with Wikala, Arya bor-bor immediately suffered a request from the soldier Lurah Balasewu and Wikala understood it and gave up the Kalademit ring back to Arya bor-bor.
The next day the whole lurah of Balasewu soldiers came to the house of Arya bor-bor, and after getting drinking water from the Kali Ghost mayit, the ten lurah Balasewu soldiers returned to his barracks each.
After preparation to depart from the tributary escort group that will be delivered to the city of Majaphit completed.
Departure the group with a pedati containing items that will be handed over to the front of the Prabhu Bhata Purwawisesa with at the guard thirteen soldiers in addition to a pedati coachman.
Their departure was separated directly by the Duke and the duchy of Pamotan.
The path of the entourage looks very slow because of a pedati. But it did not match the spirit of thirteen Pamotan soldiers led by three Tumenggung.
" Why was Gusti Adipati too worried about sending this ulu bekti,?" tanya Tumenggung Rapada to Tumenggung Rapala.
" Maybe the Duke is considering the incident that happened at that time, about the backup of our group back from Kotaraja,!' answer Tumenggung Rapala.
" But why should Balasewu's team be involved, then,?" ask Tumenggung Rapada again.
" In addition to his ability, maybe Gusti Adipati wants to investigate the circumstances of Kotaraja Majapahit,!" answer Tumenggung Rapala.
" It also makes sense that your answer is Rapala, because indeed the Lurah Warrior Balasewu is a very reliable warrior,!" said Tumenggung Rapada who continued to walk his horse slowly, the three Tumenggung were in the front row of the group of bodyguards the Upeti.
Ketix they passed ara where they some time ago was stopped by the Soldiers Pandan Alas, said Tumenggung Rapada to the tumenggung srengganu,
" Adi Srengganu here we and Gusti Adipati were stopped by Pandan Alas soldiers led by Senopati Kebo Ndaru, a confidante of the Duke of Pandan Alas because he is the younger brother of Patih Kebo Mundira,!" said Tumenggung Rapada explained to Tumenggung Srengganu who at that time did not participate in the group.
" How many Pandan Alas' soldiers are there,?" tanya Tumenggung Srengganu to Tumenggung Rapada.
" Maybe forty people plus his four senopati,!' answer Tumenggung Rapada.
" And finally they lost,?" ask Tumenggung Srengganu again.
" Nearly all Pandan alas soldiers were killed, only a few people left,!" answer Tumenggung Rapada.
The two were engrossed in telling stories on the journey until the night before the party stopped in a small forest, to just rest and feed the horses and the Cow that pulled the pedati.
