" Hehh, really your words are Uncle Patih, then let me face the troops from Kahuripan in the East, then,!" mahisa Dara.
He heard the name of the Duke of Pamotan, so he placed himself not to face with the Bhre Kertabhumi.
" Let the Kangmas Wengker face the Duke of Pamotan, if in the east, most will be forward with Tumenggung Singha Wara or at best face the Duke of Kahuripan only,!" mahisa Dara said in her heart.
" Prince, have you not heard of the outcome of the battle at Semeru Peak, yet,?" ask Patih Lohdaya.
" Not Uncle, !" answer Mahisa Dara.
" Will Gusti Prabhu go down in battle this time,?" ask Patih Lohdaya.
" No, Ramanda Prabhu will not go down in this battle, like the war before her, Ramanda Prabhu will not come down, all her handing over to us as her sons and daughters, therefore Uncle Patih Lohdaya we daulat as Senopati Agung Majapah, for this time,!" mahisa Dara.
" The prince who will be the opponent with the Duke of Pamotan, if in gathering all the retainer of Pinunjul Majapahit, his sense will not be able to match the Duke of Pamotan it , who deserves to face it,!" patih Lohdaya.
The two Majapahit Authorities were silent when Patih Lohdaya mentioned the name earlier.
" This is how Uncle Patih, if he has to face the Duke of Pamotan, as well as a group of some who are wilful to gang up on the Duke of Pamotan,!" mahisa Dara.
Patih Lohdaya stared at Mahisa Dara's face long enough, he seemed to approve the so-called proposal.
To esokan his day at the Majapahit training palace again gathered some Majapahit magnates but this time Mahisa Dara was not there,he was welcoming the arrival of troops from Wengker directly led by Duke Wengker himself.
" To all Majapahit retainers, the, we are currently facing the arrival of a very large team from the Duchy of Pamotan which is also supported by most of the Duchy in the Majapahit Plateau, so as the security policy stakeholders of Kotaraja Majapahit, I Patih Lohdaya ask for a proposal from all of you to overcome the Pamotan troops,!" patih Lohdaya opened the conversation.
The Majapahit retainers from the position of Rakryan Mantri to Lurah the soldiers who were there were tense, look tense, they feel that the war they will face this time is the most difficult war for them because in addition to the number of unbalanced soldiers in the field again Senopati from Majapahit still under from Senopati the Duchy of Pamotan. Because the general Senopati in the Duchy of Pamotan is the former Senopati Majapahit while still being led by Prabhu Rajasawardhana, so it has been proven its ability.
While in Kotaraja Majapahit, the Senopati is senopati from the Duchy of Pandan Alas.
Because of the mentioned thing, Patih Lohdaya is very difficult to determine the helpers to fill the post - the post on the fort per Majapahit prisoner today.
One of Tumenggung from the Majapahit naval fleet, Tumenggung Watulangka, immediately spoke up,
" For Gusti Patih, if we think as good as Majapahit just give up on Pamotan, to avoid many casualties, at this time Majapahit has been very difficult to find food, in addition to the war, there will certainly be more casualties,!" tumenggung Watulangka.
" Although Gusti Patih, we do not agree with the proposal from Tumenggung Watulangka, because we are on the right side of the legitimate government, it is not appropriate for us to surrender, he said, to surrender it was the Duke of Pamotan, who had dared to mbalela against Gusti Prabhu Suraprabhawa, this Majapahit King,!" advisor Arya Kangga said with fire.
" But we also have to see the reality that Kotaraja Majapahit is lost in everything, from his Warriors to his Senopati, that is, maybe if the King's City could last three days that's a very - very good achievement,!" tumenggung Gangsar support the Tumenggung Watu rare intestine.
" Ahh, there is no way Kotaraja can only last three days, whether this Majapahit warrior does not have intelligence and courage, or just big in the mouth alone, or just big in the mouth, we haven't done it yet but are willing to give up, ashamed as a soldier of a great Kingdom, the retainers are so frightened and will give up,!" said Tumenggung Surengrana with a red face
After hearing the debate among the Majapahit officials, the end of his Patih Lohdaya said to mediate his, to mediate,
" You are here to be asked his opinion not to be on the stomach, when the enemy is in sight, we Majapahit officials are busy with their opinions - each not one even broke, how will we win this war,?"
All who heard the words of Patih Lohdaya were silent.
Some agree with Patih Lohdaya but some do not.
While the influence of Patih Lohdaya is less considered from the Majapahit Superiors, because the general they know his policy is taken from the decision of Mahisa Dara. Not on his own scales.
And among the Majapahit higher ups there have been many who sided with Pamotan, so only half of them are still loyal to Prabhu Suraprabhawa.
His faithful general came from the Duchy of Pandan Alas and a small part of the Duchy of Wengker.
" We hope, 'we can unite our views to resist the attack from Pamotan, who is worthy to stand with the Duke of Pamotan,?" ask Patih Lohdaya.
All the Majapahit officials were silent and looked at each other with the other.
They could not find his answer. Quite a long time the atmosphere of silence so in the training palace.
Arya Kangga as an advisor from Prabhu Suraprabhawa, who is usually smart enough to overcome a strange problem to be broken, but this time he also met a dead end to ask for a name.
" How is this, to deal with just one person from Pamotan we have difficulties, while the Duchy of Pamotan has many formidable Senopati, such as Senopati Lembu Petala, Arya bor-bor, Naja Pratanu, Tumenggung Kembar, and many others, not to mention the dukes,!" patih Lohdaya.
It is very difficult to give a name to face the Duke of Pamotan.
Arya Kangga finally said,
" It was as good as Kakang Patih Lohdaya himself who faced the Duke of Pamotan,!'
" Well, are we in agreement on this, then,?" ask Patih Lohdaya.
" We agree Gusti Patih,...!!!!?'" replied the Majapahit Superiors in unison.
It is Tumenggung Watulangka who then answers the words, the words of Patih Lohdaya.
" We will not stand at the battle as Majapahit's fleet, and we must keep it from falling into the hands of the enemy,!" tumenggung Watulangka.
" The entire Majapahit naval fleet will be pulled into this Majapahit city, let the runway of the naval fleet at Atbatan be empty right, because we are doing a total prisoner in this Kotaraja Majapahit fortress,!" patih Lohdaya.
Tumenggung Watulangka was jolted to hear the statement from Patih Lohdaya, he did not expect all the soldiers under his control would be pulled all over to Kotaraja Majapahit.
Of course, the ability of soldiers from the naval fleet is less useful if you have to fight on land. But the decision has been taken by Patih Lohdaya that all Majapahit soldiers will hold in the fort Kotaraja Majapahit.
*********
While in the Duchy of Tumapel right in the village of Antang, in the barracks of soldiers from the Duchy of Pamotan that has been completed in the building, the, ter saw Wikala the Duke of Pamotan accompanied by two of his confidants was in talks with other officials of the Duchy of Pamotan and there was also present Duke Tumapel.
" Thank God, the son of Duke Pamotan has been present here safe, because what we hear is a war Tanding with a monk from Tibet,!" duke Tumapel said to the Duke of Pamotan.
" Thanks to the protection of Hyang Widhi wasa, We are still survived Uncle Duke, and thanks to the prayers of all of you so that we can still meet again in this place,!" wikala the Duke of Pamotan replied.
" Does the Tibetan monk have the result of losing, right,?" ask Duke Tumapel again.
" Not exactly Uncle Duke, but he gave up and did not want to continue the war Tanding it,!" wikala the Duke of Pamotan again.
" What was the reason that anakmas gave up, then,?" duke Tumapel.
Then Wikala the Duke of Pamotan recounted a little about the reason the Tibetan-origin monk Ganggadhara surrendered, which makes everyone who is in that place amazed - amazed by the attitude that has been taken from his Lord.
" Ahh, if perhaps Uncle who is in the position of anakmas, of course the Tibetan monk has returned to his name alone,!" duke Tumapel said with a smile.
Wikala the Duke of Pamotan was just a faint smile heard the joke from the Duke of Tumapel.
" Gusti Adipati, will it continue to Kandangan or will it be here until the attack begins,?" tanya Tumenggung Rapada who became the holder of power over the completeness of the Duchy of Pamotan was entered in Kahuripan.
" Maybe tomorrow or the day after we, I mean with Arya drill-bor and Petala Cow going to Kandangan and continue to Pakal, after all its new ready we will attack Kotaraja Majapahit it,!" wikala the Duke of Pamotan.
" Are we going to strike first 'Gusti Adipati,?" Ask Rangga Rawelu.
Because Rangga Rawelu and Rangga Jumena had faced with Tumenggung Watulangka, a Senopati from the Majapahit naval fleet and had a runway at Telbatan.
" According to the soldiers of the Pamotan cipher, the soldiers who were in the Battle were pulled into the city of Majapahit, they will hold it fully in the City fortress, Kota, so we don't have to go forward with Majapahit's fleet at the Battle,!" wikala the Duke of Pamotan.
" Hehh, they withdrew all of their armies that were at the Battle, Adipati's Anakmas,?' duke Tumapel asked in astonishment.
" Right uncle, and in the body of the Majapahit army at this time it has also been broken into two, one of them still remains loyal to Prabhu Suraprabhawa and the other has joined Pamotan, !" wikala the Duke of Pamotan.
" That means our task will be very - very easy to win the war this time,!" duke of Tumapel.
" We have not been able to master the Uncle Duke, which obviously we must try to win the war this time, this time, whatever we can not last and look down on the opponent we face, even though Kotaraja Majapahit is currently seen weak, but with the presence of the cunning Mahisa Dara there, he said, anything can happen,!" wikala the Duke of Pamotan.
Indeed, the higher-ups of the Duchy of Pamotan were very familiar with the lunge of Mahisa Dara that often do the attitude of making a profit on his own, and his talent seemed to come down from his parents, his parents, Rakryan Mantri Kuda Langhi, who had made it difficult for the palace family because of his mbalela attitude some time ago.
" Will the Duke of Kabalan come down here, Uncle Adipati ?" ask Wikala the Duke of Pamotan to the Duke of Tumapel .
" Maybe he will come down here, later after the time of the attack on the city of Majapahit arrived, because his duchy is not currently safe from the intruders, Duke's children,?" duke Tumapel replied.
" Kakang Tumenggung, our supply is sufficient until the time of attack later" asked Wikala the Duke of Pamotan to Tumenggung Rapada.
" It is still sufficient Gusti Adipati, because the supplies we brought from Pamotan hold for two full moons, and in addition from some duchies that support Pamotan even though they are not able to send his troops to come here but they send supplies and weapons,!" tumenggung Rapada.
That night until the morning, the officials of the Duchy of Pamotan busy talking about the problem of attack to the city of Majapahit.
To his day after noon, Wikala the Duke of Pamotan moved to the Thandasain fiefland which was not far from the village of Antang.
He is still accompanied by Senopati Lembu and Arya bor-bor.
And from the yard of his parents' house, he saw his son was trying to run to welcome his Ramanda.
" Ro. mmoo, though,!" said the little boy.
He welcomed the arrival of Wikala the Duke of Pamotan.
" Wah Joko thole, has been great now, has been able to catch up, Father,!" wikala said the Duke of Pamotan while pinching the cheek of the little boy, his son.
