For two days Senopati Sandi Demak and his wife were restrained in the Randu Alas.

At the request of Bekel pedukuhnya, a couple was asked to stay to keep Crow Gangsu, because the leader of the robbery was starting to be healthy.

" Anakmas Senopati Brastha Abipraya, we beg you to bring the Gangsu Crow to Demak, because we here will not be able to keep him, ." said Bekel Randu Alas.

" Ki Bekel, don't worry, we will bring those who have been healthy, including the Gangsu Crow," said Raka Senggani.

Bekel Randu Alas heart became very happy, because the threat to the behavior of Gangsu Crow has been overcome.

Bekel Randu Alas would like to thank you for the help of Senopati Brastha Abipraya to overcome the problems that have haunted them for a long time.

He also apologized for the misunderstanding when they first met, had thought that the Senopati was part of the gang raiding gangs.

After a few days in the Pedukan Randu Alas, they finally left the pederasty by bringing the Gangsu Crow.

On the way back to Kotaraja Demak, the Gangsu Crow said,

" Senopati Brastha Abipraya, on the contrary we are released, so that the journey of the two of you is not disturbed" said the leader of the robbery.

While staring at the face of the Gangsu Crow, Raka Senggani immediately replied,

" You will interfere with our journey, but if you let go, you will disturb the ordinary people with the crimes you have committed" replied Senopati Sandi Demak.

" Senopati, we promise not to repeat our actions again, if you set us free,!" ragak Gangsu.

" But what can guarantee that you can keep that promise, then,.?" ask Raka Senggani.

He could not approve the request of the robbers, because the consequences would be very great for the residents and also the people of Demak.

" If you can make a promise or a guarantee that I will not vent again this action of yours, I can release you." said Senopati Sandi Demak.

As he continued to run his horse slowly, because the two of them could not be too far away from the Crow Gangsu group and all his men.

Because these prisoners were on foot, and of course made their way very slow.

Sari Kemuning who seems to be less pleased with this situation immediately close his horse with her husband's horse.

" Kang, should not their request that we approve, anyway if they will vent his actions, we can immediately finish them off" said the wife.

" Kuning, Kakang can not take the risk by releasing them, what if we can not find them because Demak will immediately send his troops to Melaka, and they're here to do even more viciously, who's he guilty of, huh,?" asked Senopati Sandi Demak that to his wife.

There is also the truth of what was said by the husband, so that Sari Kemuning no longer dared to talk about the release of these prisoners.

Although both roads become hampered by her.

Meanwhile in Demak city, precisely in Kadilangu, where Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga is located.

There have been guardians who will talk about the desire of Sultan Demak who will fight against foreign invaders in the Malay land.

In that place has been present, Sunan Giri or Raden Paku , Sunan Kudus or Raden ja' far shodiq, Sunan Bonang or Raden Maulana makdum Ibrahim, Sunan drajat or raden Qosim syaifuddin, etc, Sunan Muria or Raden Umar Said.

Although leaving some guardians again, but it seems that the trial road is still being implemented and as a substitute for the Leader of the party after the death of Kanjeng Sunan Ampel was appointed Kanjeng Sunan Giri as his successor.

Although at that time there were people who proposed Kanjeng Sunan Gunung Jati or Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga who became the Leader. But no one is ready.

In this court, this time, by Kanjeng Sunan Giri discussed the intentions of Sultan Demak who will send his fleet to Melaka.They object if Kanjeng Sultan Demak himself who led his troops to fight the foreign nation.

All the guardians agreed on this except one, Sunan Gunung Jati.

The guardian who served and was in the wliayah kulon is very supportive of the intention of the Sultan to remain his Great senopati in the mission of jihad fisabilillah expel the invaders.

" We are all aware of what Sunan Gunung Jati thinks, he does hope to the Sultan's children to be like Sultan Al Fatih of Istanbul Turkey" explained Sunan Giri.

And the other guardians also confirmed the remark , as they know that Sunan Gunung Jati was the pioneer of the invasion of Demak troops into Melaka on the invasion for the first time.

" We can understand him, who would not be proud if there is a leader of the country who can succeed as Sultan Muhammad Al Fatih has done, he said, but at this time Demak is still very vulnerable to division, especially for those who want to evoke the success of Majapahit in the past, in addition to , many irresponsible people take the opportunity at a time like this, " said Kanjeng Sunan Giri again.

Then the Leader of these trustees asked the opinions of the guardians present there.

General they wanted to let the Demak Army still depart, but not with the Sultan of Demak.

They wanted the Sultan to remain in Kotaraja Demak and let the army be led by another Senopati Agung.

That is the agreed word set by the trustees in the meeting, led by Sunan Giri .

" If there is a Sunan Gunung Jati kangmas, maybe he is the one who is very worthy to say this to the Sultan's children." said Sunan Kalijaga.

" But he is not here, let us who are here convey this to the son of the Sultan, you should be the son of Kalijaga and also the holy child who carries out this task, " sunan Bonang.

Both Sunan Kalijaga and Sunan Kudus also responded to the request of the elders of the guardians.

They will be the ambassadors of the trustees to convey their objections to the departure of Kanjeng Sultan Demak as a Senopati Agung Demak who will be the leader of the naval fleet of Demak forces.

There is concern among the guardians if this fisabilillah jihad mission fails, and causes the Sultan to die, he said, of course, it will be very dangerous for Demak's position as the center of the first Islamic government in Jawadwipa.

If later the transfer of power from the Sultanate of Demak is not going well will certainly make this first Islamic Kingdom that stands in the motory of the guardians will meet its destruction, it means that the da'wah that is run throughout the archipelago can stop suddenly, and the old forces can rise again .

And the guardians did not want that, as much as possible they would prevent the departure of Prince Sabrang Lor who now has the title as the second Sultan of Demak.

If the time before his departure it is not a problem in because he is not a King or Sultan, who has full power over the Kingdom of Demak, so there is no problem , in contrast to this time, Prince Sabrang Lor, or Senopati Sarjawala was a King, who was domiciled in the palace with all his power and strength, was a king, it is very dear if he himself will be his Senopati in this war.

After the meeting at Kadilangu was completed, and Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga and Kanjeng Sunan Kudus were given the mandate to convey the message of the guardians to the Sultan Demak himself.

So that these two guardians also carry out their duties facing Kanjeng Sinuwun in his palace.

The arrival of the two makes Kanjeng Sinuwun very surprised because unlike usual the two guardians are very reluctant at this Demak square facing him together.

Moreover, Sunan Kudus, which is actually the Senopati of Demak's own troops, even during the war against Majapahit he became Senopati Agung.

" What is it about Uncle Sunan facing me, is there something important, so you two come together,..?" sultan Demak asked the two.

And this time, he received both of his guests in a separate ward dedicated to receiving very important guests and personally, so that what is spoken is more free and free but cannot be known by the general and broad audience. His collar can stay awake.

" I apologize to us before the Sultan's son, the arrival of both of us is related to the intention of Anakmas Sultan who will immediately send troops to Melaka" said Sunan Kalijaga.

" It's true Uncle Sunan, though,.. Demak troops are ready to be deployed just waiting for reports from the soldiers telik codi Demak who have been assigned to see and know the exact strength of the enemy,.." clearly this second Sultan of Demak.

He who holds the title Senopati Sarjawala and also Prince Sabrang Lor, is still very young, even tends his soul still likes to explode.

And the Sultan was unhappy and unsettled to sit on his throne without doing anything, as he had been doing all this time.

But his difference this time , he is the place to depend on the entire citizens and people of Demak , as the place of decision makers and also the symbol of the new Demak Kingdom stands it.

So it is very unfortunate if in a state of not being pressed or requires the hand of the Sultan to go down , the work is done by the Sultan himself.

" Pardon the servant, anakmas the Sultan,. Actually, the council of the trustees did not dispute about the departure of the fleet of Demak troops to help the people to wither away from the occupation and oppression of the foreign nation, said Sunan Kudus.

" So where is the problem, if the council of trustees supports our intention to attack Melaka ,?" ask Sultan Demak again.

Then Sunan Kalijaga explained to the Sultan about the departure of the Sultan himself who would become Senopati Agung in a visit to the Malay land this time, because at the time of the first failed raid, it was, the Sultan was the Senopati Agung and at that time was titled Senopati Sarjawala

So , still according to the results of the council of the trustees, asked the Sultan to undo his intention to meminmpin his own troops, let the Great Senopati was handed over to others only, let it be handed over to others, if the Sultan does not like the old like them, he can appoint from among the young, as long as not the Sultan Demak himself who came down directly to the field of action.

Long time ago, Kanjeng Sinuwun was speechless from Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga, he felt something was wrong from his speech, so the Sultan immediately responded to him,.

" Whether Uncle Sunan is both unhappy to have a leader like Sultan Muhammad Al Fatih from Turkey, besides he is still very young, he is also the one who has made the Prophet's hadith come true, as good as the leader and as good as the troops led him, so constantinople fell into his hands, and he changed the name to Istanbul, which means the city of Islam,!" sultan Demak said this second.

While taking his breath, the Sultan then continued his speech, that all his desire is to make Islam victorious throughout this archipelago, if it can reach foreign countries, and an act of jihad fisabilillah is the duty of a true Muslim indiscriminately whether he is a commoner or a King, his position is the same in the eyes of Allah Swt, there is no difference , there is no caste, I would be very happy if martyred in the way of Allah, especially fighting for His religious interests, which is to free Muslims from colonization and oppression, explained Sultan Demak.

He still adds his words to himself being a King or being a commoner, his duties remain the same , and this time the task will remain he shouldered himself on the shoulders as a leader of the Demak Kingdom.

" But there is a difference when anakmas was still a Duke of Anom with the current who has become the Sultan in Demak, the difference is very striking, anakmas, anakmas, when the Sultan's son was still a Duke of Anom, anakmas only submitted and obeyed all orders from Kanjeng Sinuwun, in contrast to today, anakmas Sultan who controls all the power in Demak, and as a Sultan or Raja , he , anakmas Sultan must properly protect the entire Demak kawula and let the issue of illumination be handed over to the Senopati in charge of it, isn't there still very much Senopati Senopati pinunjul from Demak this, quite anakmas Sultan ordered, they will certainly be ready to do it, ." explained Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga.

" I'm sorry before Uncle Sunan, but it has been my determination since being appointed as a Senopati Sarjawala, especially after my defeat in the first raid, I will remain his senopati, I will remain his senopati, especially after being appointed as a Sultan in Demak, because the task of a Sultan is not just to sit casually on the seat of his throne, there are calculations later, there will be, if a King of his work is just sitting on his hands, of course he is a King who will be thrown into the fire of hell, has the power not able to run it well just rely on others, but can not run it, that's the hallmark of despotic leaders..," said Sultan Demak.

" But we are concerned about your safety, my dear Sultan, what will happen if you cannot return from that battlefield, how will this continuation of the Kingdom of Demak be, and what can we do to keep her,..?"

A speech and a question that was asked by Kanjeng Sunan Kalijaga to the young Sultan of Demak.

But indeed the Sultan remained firm with his stance, he told the two that if Sang khalik blesses and still gives him safety, of course he will be able to return to Demak without anything less, however, if he is indeed martyred in this war, he will sincerely accept it, and regarding the continuation of the throne of the Kingdom of Demak, he handed it to the almighty, everything will return to him, not least of him.Such is what the ruler of the second Kingdom of Demak.

And for the two legates of the council of trustees felt that it failed to persuade the Sultan to abandon his intention to become Senopati Agung in this war.

For both of them can only pray that the Sultan remains given health and safety for him.

Although their duty failed to persuade the sultan to confine his intention to become Senopati the Great on the attack to Malacca this time.

But still both have done their efforts to prevent the Sultan to leave.But what would be said by the second Sultan of Demak is firm on its establishment.
