Pepes 5: On the Brink of War
*Sang Penyar Pendekar Sanggana (Pepes)*
“Rear, this is your wand,” said Rawaiti gently while giving her husband's iron rod.
“Thank you, dear,” said Parsuto who was in a condition of neatly dressed yellow mixed red. Looks bright. He received an iron rod which was his handgun.
“Be careful, Kakang. I will not eat until you return home safely,” said the blind Rawaiti.
“Do not do that, eat even without me,” soft Parsuto said. He loved his beautiful wife.
“Every day we eat together, even as handsome as two. I'm used to eating with you, so I'll wait for you,” said Rawaiti.
“Good. I must have returned safely. Don't doubt my prowess on the battlefield. Didn't you feel it every night?” parsuto closed with a whisper.
“Kakang! Hihihi..!” said Rawaiti embarrassed and laughed giggling, which was followed by the laughter of Parsuto who only had the right hand.
Tong keg keg…!
From a distance came the sound of bamboo claps being hit.
“Tasks already called!” parsuto.
“Go home, Kakang,” said Rawaiti while holding Parsuto's face and smiling sadly.
“Definitely, Dear!” parsuto then kissed his wife's forehead. “Wait for me yes.”
“Iya,” replied Rawaiti with a smile, though in her heart she was pounding. This was the first time the husband had ever been to war.
After establishing his heart and determination, Parsuto then left his beloved wife who is the sister of Surya Kasyara.
They both live in Subur Village as a farmer, a profession that many people do in the three villages on the mountain
After hearing the sound of a kentongan which was a sign of a gathering call, the warriors who were ready to join the war immediately gathered in front of the house of the Village Chief Tukang Tanam.
There were about twenty citizens who were warriors, men and women. The head of Tukang Tanam Village then led his warriors to gather with the warriors from Kampung Kenangan and Makmur Village.
After the warriors from the three villages gathered one, there were as many as sixty warriors. The village heads led their respective citizens who were all under the command of Duke Yono Sumoto.
They waited until finally a messenger from the Kingdom came to the duke. After that, Duke Yono Sumoto led his army towards the Three Eyes Slope. Their position is on the mountain.
Upon arrival at the Slope of Three Eyes, Duke Yono Sumoto did not go directly into the slope, he hid his troops first. Meanwhile, he conducted reconnaissance by stealth so that their existence is not known.
Duke Yono Sumoto saw that no war had taken place on the Slope of the Three Eyes. He saw that there were only hundreds of Sanggana soldiers outside the Sanggana Forest overlooking the slopes. The enemy has not been seen his nose.
Seeing that condition, Duke Yono Sumoto ordered his troops to lay on the ground so that the existence of their heads was not visible from the bottom side of the slope.
“You didn't invite your beautiful wife, Parsuto?” tanya Ngatimin, the thick-moustached man lying face down on Parsuto's right side. The thirty-five year old man was armed with a heavy great sword weapon. It has a large body and muscles.
“I love my wife too much,” Parsuto replied while smiling at Ngatimin.
“I heard you were Gusti Prabu Dira's best friend?” ask Ngatimin.
“If I were you, Parsuto, I wouldn't waste a chance,” Ngatimin said.
“Hahaha!” parsuto laughter. “Ngatimin, how long have you been staying here?”
“Ten year already. I serve Prince Kubur who is now king in the Kingdom of Baturaharja,” answered Ngatimin.
“How does your former life compare to now, under the reign of Little Sangana?” ask Parsuto.
“Very different. This time my life is more focused and there are goals to be achieved. The Kingdom is very concerned about our prosperity. We not only grow crops to eat, but also to sell so that we can have our own property. I heard from the Village Chief, it will be opened a reliable warrior education place for the Kingdom. I will put my two sons in it to become great warriors,” said Ngatimin.
“But why didn't you register as a soldier?” ask Parsuto.
“The reason may be the same as you. I have a strong. A little bit willing, a little bit willing. If I were a soldier, my business would be troublesome. Hahaha!” he answered and laughed without shame.
“Hahaha!” Parsuto just laughed.
“Shut! Enemy troops are coming!” the quiet exclamation of Duke Yono Sumoto. “No one stands!”
From the direction of the western side of the Three Eyes Slope appeared thousands of Demon Kingdom troops. The front row was the Second Level Demon Army led by the Fire Wind Demon.
“Heiii! Bald rat troop is coming, banguuun!” shouted Puspa shouted at his three hundred troops who had been on guard since.
Across there, the Demon Kingdom army was setting up a formation to attack.
Meanwhile, in the Sanggana Forest behind the forces led by Queen Puspa, Queen Getara Cinta and the empresses watch the condition of the slopes from above the trees. The darkness of the forest made them invisible from outside the forest, as well as the presence of the warriors who had been waiting for a while.
Muta Dipa is ready to lead the Flower Guard, Babat Seta leads the Sanggana Ghost Army, Manik Glow aka Swordsman Black Fan leads the Princess Sword Force, and Merak Line leads the Telaga Ruler Army. The four special forces leaders were ready to advance to the war arena.
More into the Sanggana Forest, there were a thousand main troops. They were not planned to enter the war, but were kept on alert if they were to be deployed as a relief force.
“Mahapati, send a message to Ratu Puspa, a new war will be started if the enemy forces have approached the Sanggana Forest. We have to pull them further apart from the last army. Queen Puspa will not appear as the leader of the army, she will definitely fight alone with her husband. Therefore, after Queen Puspa advanced, you took control of the front troops. Advance them only as anglers so that the enemy troops do not hesitate to advance further. Warriors who will advance, while military forces fight at the end!” queen Getara Love's orders are quite long.
“Good, Gusti Ratu,” said Mahapati Turung Gali obediently, although in his heart he did not agree that military forces will fight at the end. It was very clear that it would make their troops outnumbered very far in the beginning.
Mahapati Turung Gali directly conveyed the message of Queen Getara Cinta to Queen Puspa.
“Hihihi! Fine, Puspa will obey. Hihihi!” puspa replied with laughter, enjoying the threshold atmosphere of the war. “You Bull!”
“Yes, Baby Kelinciku?” sahut Abna Hadaya is excited.
“What will you spend to eradicate those cute insects?” ask Puspa.
“Obviously I'll rely on the science of Heart Ravage and Plague of Shampooing…. Uh, how about shampooing? I mean Sacred Grasshopper Plague. Hahaha!” abna Hadaya replied and laughed.
“Hihihi..!” long Puspa laughter. She thinks her husband is really funny.
However, even though the two armies had faced off, but from the stronghold of the Demon Kingdom forces had yet to advance. His officers were still busy observing the situation.
“The nuances of the trap are very felt,” said Demon Wind Fire to himself. He looked closely at the top of the mountain on the east side of the slope and towards the Eternal Night Forest which was on the north side of the slope. “If there are troops hidden on top of the mountain, they will have difficulty when descending. Arrow troops could not reach the war arena. Must be a hidden troop stationed inside the northern forest.” (BH)
