CHAPTER 39, PLAN AND PREPARATION FOR THE ATTACK

Setiba at the residence of Prince Mangkubumi, had seen Raden Mertowijoyo, Joyodipuro, Joyo Wiguno, Joyo Praboto, and Joyo Utomo who was sitting together with Prince Mangkubumi on the front porch.

“Monggo nakmas Danang and nakmas Said, we have just started a conversation about the preparation and maturation of plans to pound and conquer areas in the north and south of the land of Java.”hambut Pangeran Mangkubumi.

“Please forgive romo, we came late so that made the conversation hampered.”ucap Raden Mas Said.

“Not why nakmas, anyway we have not entered on the subject. Monggo, let's sit down together and talk about everything.”ujar Pangeran Mangkubumi.

Soon Raden Mas Said, Danang Hadikusumo, Nyai Arum, and Sekar Kinasih took positions to begin to engage in the planning.

“As we all know, the lunge of the corn-haired nation has deepened and gripped the power of the palace in managing and regulating the law in this country." said Prince Mangkubumi.

"The legal and cultural order in the land of Java is increasingly damaged by the interference of the corn-haired nation, which made the Mataram palace founded by Kanjeng Panembahan Senopati and reached its golden age when Kanjeng Sinuwun Sultan Agung Hanyorokusumo became fragmented.”ujar Pangeran Mangkubumi.

“This is sustainable and influential on the people of Java land who are currently losing their identity as Javanese people. They are squeezed sweat by officials of the palace who for the sake of greed piled up property and cooperate with the corn-haired nation, pulling levies that are felt very burdensome for the people.”, added Prince Mangkubumi.

“Our sovereignty as part of the Javanese land community must remain upheld, without the interference of foreign nations in governing and presenting peace to the people, especially the small people who have difficulty living.

“As we planned earlier, we will divide the troops into two large parts, one led by me, and the other will be led by nakmas Said." said Prince Mangkubumi.

"Said nakmas forces will move southward to conquer and capture the areas there, and make the areas of Madiun, Ponorogo and Magetan as the center of our power in the south of Java.”ujar Prince Mangkubumi.

“While my army will move to conquer and capture the north by conquering Pati, Jepara, Grobogan, Demak, Semarang, and Banyumas. As we know, the northern area of the land of Java is very important, because there are several major ports that play an important role in trade.”up continued Prince Mangkubumi.

“From the news that I heard, Sinuwun in the palace of Surakarta is currently in severe pain. Based on the news I heard, Sinuwun intends to hand over the sovereignty of the palace to the VOC in full, where this cannot be left alone.”ujar Pangeran Mangkubumi.

“I think this is the right time for our troops to move to conquer and take over the areas in the land of Java Romo." said Raden Mas Said.

"I am sure the people of Java and the men loyal to this country will not accept if it happens. According to my estimation they will further support our struggle.”Addanced Raden Mas Said.

“Lantas how about the readiness of your soldier unit nakmas Danang?”ask Prince Mangkubumi to Danang Hadikusumo.

“Singgih Gusti Prince. Currently, the forty soldiers have experienced rapid progress, thanks to the support of Gusti Raden Mas Said, Nyai Arum, Diajeng Sekar, and Raden Mertowijoyo.”ucap Danang.

“They are currently in a very high state of spirit to fight alongside the forces of Gusti Prince, as well as they also want to prove that they can be useful to this country and erase their dark past.”add Danang to Prince Mangkubumi.

“Lantas, what are your plans against them nakmas.”kanya Prince Mangkubumi.

“Nyuwun pangapunten Gusti Prince, I plan to send one of them who happens to be a former robber from Alas Krabut in Banyumas to invite and gather seventy people who will be trained secretly in Alas Krabut, as troops pitung tens.”ujar the young man.

“Then the servant along with the rest to spread secretly as a password to collect information from the regions that will be our target, also inflame the spirit of struggle among the people there.”add Danang to Prince Mangkubumi.

“I agree with your plans nakmas. Immediately you prepare and leave no later than next week.”Prince Mangkubumi's orders to Danang.

“Singgih sendiko dawuh Gusti Pangeran, I will do my best in carrying out the duties of Gusti Pangeran.”ujar Danang while arranging his bektinya prayer.

“Nakmas Said, please you prepare all your troops and leave as late as next week.”Prince Mangkubumi's orders to Raden Mas Said.

“Sendiko dawuh romo, I will also prepare everything for the departure of our troops next week.”ucap Raden Mas Said while arranging his worship service.

“Then Mertowijoyo, you and I will prepare our troops here while waiting for information and instructions to be given by the nakmas Danang and his tens of units.”ucap Pangeran Mangkubumi on Mertowijoyo.

“Sendiko dawuh Gusti Pangeran, leave it to the servant to organize and prepare our troops.”ujar Mertowijoyo perform his worship service.

Secretly Danang glanced at Sekar Kinasih who was seen bowing his head while biting his lips.

Anxiety and anxiety were evident in the look on the girl's face, although as part of the unit he tried to hide it...
