The Thousand Mask Warrior

Disconnecting

Dozens of Siamese troops emerged from behind the hill. Only six to seven people rode, the rest ran on the side. All the soldiers were dressed in bright red clothes with their waists wrapped in black cloth, pants sebetis pangsi, naked and wearing a pointy headdress with. Some wore iron armor on their chests and shoulders, especially the soldiers. One man, the leader, wore a taper head covering as well but with a caping-like circle but much smaller.

A long sword tucked in the waist, grasped, or hung cross-legged on the back. Some of them carried long guns and shot them in the air.

On the other side of the hill is also seen with fewer numbers, the Malay forces of the Kedah Sultanate. These Malay warriors wore white-smooth silk garments, high headgear or similar to a turban. High spears stretched forward. Some also carry rifles and have prepared their muzzles towards Siamese troops and small groups fighting in the midst of the two armies of the country in the time of tension.

"Stop, Pucok Gunong. Stop whatever you're doing now" ordered one of the retainers of Kedah's Malay army.

"What's your problem, Nuruddi? Didn't I help Kedah to teach the people of Siam this*parat, huh?" reply the Tiger Belang to the retainer of the Sultanate of Kedah who turned out to be named Nuruddi. It seems that these two people know each other.

"You're not helping at all, Pucok Gunong. Look at the victims on your side with their side. In arithmetic you should know well the results. After all, the Siamese now turned out to be cooperating with the Burmese, a nation that had once colonized and was still looking for a loophole to subdue Ayutthaya," Nuruddi again exclaimed.

Now the courtier walked closer to the Siamese forces on the opposite side and shouted loudly. "This is not our responsibility, Kedah people. You should be the Siamese responsible for this mess. Indeed, the Malay warriors were not our men, but see for yourself the army of your warriors who turned out to be mixed with the Burmese. I had no idea that you could also bend your knees with your invaders, even cooperate with them."

Nuruddi's luring speech clearly entered the heart of the Siamese army leader. Not without reason, Ayutthaya had attacked the Burmese kingdom until the war occurred in 1568 to 1569 AD. Where it began with the failure of Ayutthaya subjugate Phitsanulok, a subordinate country of the Burmese kingdom. As a result, the Burmese retaliated against Ayutthaya and won this battle in 1569 AD. Ayutthaya immediately became a powerful and large Burmese vassal country. Even the Burmese Kingdom to directly expand their submission to the kingdom of Lan Xang, the land of the Lao people bordering the Dai Viet, although only mastered it for a short time until 1570 AD.

Complicated are the relations between the Siamese, Khmer people in Cambodia, Lao in Lan Xang, Burmese, Campa and Dai Viet to Malay. But nothing is really hated by the Siamese except the Burmese, and vice versa.

So the leader looked at the wounded and wounded Burmese warriors in the group of wounded Siamese warriors. He spat on the ground, then raised one hand. The Siamese soldiers holding rifles immediately ran forward without further ado. They already know clearly what they should do without a command in the form of words.

Unfortunately for the Burmese warriors who did not have time to take precautions. The injuries they suffered also made them unable to do many things quickly. Pelu*ru pierced through their skulls. Not until there, the soldier who did not hold a rifle had unsheathed the sword and cut the neck of the Burmese swordsman who had been penetrated by the bullet. The heads of the Burmese warriors were scattered on the severed ground. The only luck of the Burmese warriors was that they did not feel any pain until yesterday.
