The trumpets sounded from the command place of Selo Cemeng warrior as a sign that Selo Cemeng soldiers should retreat, they immediately returned to where they rested to treat the wound and restore strength.
The faces of the faces bowed lethargic into the scenery there, they had tried to break through into the fortress but the result was that many lives were lost at that time.
A rash decision taken by commander Mahendra, he felt confident that their troops could easily penetrate the fort's defenses, but his guess was wrong, the soldiers of Tirta Kencana prepared this war well, they were very unyielding and obeyed the orders of their superiors well.
Because of high confidence that made the commander Mahendra immediately attacked the fortress of the kingdom of Tirta Kencana without waiting for a stone thrower because of the weight of the tool so late arrived.
The decision was paid handsomely with many soldiers who had to die in vain on that day.
" What should we do to attack the royal fortress of Tirta Kencana Gusti panglima ,,? today our army of more than one thousand and five hundred have been killed by their strict guard, "asked the senopati of Abinaya to the commander Mahendra as they were meeting in the biggest tent.
" Right, I do not think, it turns out that they are very strong defense, no one is able to penetrate the solidity of the fortress, if anyone is able to squeeze into it, but that's the same as depositing a life,, "
" Right, senopati Jalu Kuning who was able to break through the fort was in fact killed by senopati Bajra, I will not release senopati Bajra in this war,, " cengger Jago senopati growled while clenching his hands because today his senopati Jalu Kuning brother has died at the hands of senopati Bajra.
" Tomorrow what shall we do to crush the fortress ,,? " ask commander Mahendra.
Before all were able to answer the question, a soldier came to inform them if the stone thrower tonight had just arrived, hearing the report that the commander Mahendra smiled happily, now he will not repeat his famous mistake again, he rearranged the attack, so that in the face of the leaders of the army there was new hope to destroy the enemy fortress.

In a room in the castle, the prince Ranu Mulya presided over the meeting, he was very agitated by the news conveyed by a believer about what happened in the palace, he was originally about to return to the palace, he was about to return to the palace, but it was prevented by senopati Bajra, he calmed the prince and said that if in the fortress the troops needed him as the top leader so he undoed his intentions.
But it also affected every decision so that made the commander of Restu Aji who accompanied him always advised that the prince's decision did not harm them.
" I'm still worried about the king in the palace, have you heard from the palace,,? " ask prince Ranu Mulya.
" Alas, the prince, the code-bearers who reported the events in the palace, are now just leaving for the palace to find news, " replied the commander of Restu Aji.
" It is better that you calm yourself first prince, we better prepare a strategy to face the war tomorrow, however tomorrow we must fight again with the soldiers of Selo Cemeng kingdom, for the safety of his king I believe he is in good condition, "the suggestion of senopati Bajra.
" Why are you so sure that senopati is fine, Ramanda, then,,,? "
" Please prince, because I believe in the king's guard, I have also asked Cakra, the son of the servant to spy on the commander of Randu Alas because I have long done an investigation to the commander of Randu Alas,, " senopati Bajra..
" That's right, then my heart's relieved because I know your son's chakra ability,, "
" For today's battle I think we are good enough to dispel their attacks, I hope tomorrow we can defend this fortress again, if there is input then please convey,,! " said Prince Ranu Mulya.
The meeting lasted a bit long because everything there gave each other input to face the opponent tomorrow.
A guard soldier came in reporting the arrival of Cakra at that time.
Prince Ranu Mulya greeted Cakra with enthusiasm, he was immediately asked to sit down and convey what he experienced at the palace this afternoon.
Cakra tells everything that happened and conveys a message from the king to the prince Ranu Mulya so that the prince Ranu Mulya does not worry about his situation and remains concentrated on winning the war here, I was also asked to help Prince Ranu Mulya if needed.
The prince was very happy to hear the report, he immediately ordered all those who were there to rest in order to recover some energy.
When all had returned to their respective places, there were those who were still accompanying the prince there were those who saw the condition of the soldiers who were resting and there were those who were watching the opponents who were resting.
Cakra in the gamit of his hand by senopati Bajra, he wants to know exactly who is the mastermind behind the attack, then Cakra conveys that Gajah Seno who has planned this, Seno who has planned this, even Patih Gajah Seno also cooperated with the kingdom of Selo Cemeng so that this incident occurred.
Senopati Bajra did not think with this incident, he thought the leadership of king Rangga Jaya was very fair, he said, but why there are still greedy people who are not satisfied with what is in his possession so that they want to seize power in a vile way, if you see the salary of a royal retainer that is large enough, if you look at the salary of a royal courtier, enough for them to meet the needs of their families, but why they still deprive others of their rights, why they still use the royal property for their own benefit, he said, they did not realize if the existing royal wealth came from the labor of the common people whose submission was accompanied by prayer that the kingdom could protect them and give a sense of security, calm to the common people, and peace, are they not aware if the royal treasure is given by the people from the hard work of squeezing their sweat, but we royal courtiers can only scatter this wealth for a moment's pleasure.
Cakra listened to his father's grievances while pondering, in his mind was raging about the fate of the commoners who had always been the most at a disadvantage from every war and riot, in his mind, people just want to feel comfortable when working to find a mouthful of rice, people just want to sleep well without thinking about what tomorrow should eat, people just want to joke with their friends without fear of their safety threatened, he said, only simple desires of commoners, but the simple ones are difficult to occur due to human greed.
