The Ancestral Country

The Ancestral Country
Gondho and Waseso


Dewi Anggarawati looked up at the handsome face of Panji Watugunung. A clear tear still dripped from the end of his eye. She was so happy to hear her husband coming home for her.


Patugunung Panji immediately wiped the tears of his wife and slowly kissed the daughter of the Duchy of Seloageng gently. The warm feeling of the husband's friendly kiss can relieve the tears of the beautiful woman who is pregnant immediately.


Ehemmmm


Deheman of Ayu Galuh made those who let go of longing realize that in that place there were not only the two of them.


Panji Watugunung immediately turned to Panji Gunungsari and Dewi Pancawati who smiled meaningfully looking at the intimacy of the two of them.


"Sorry Kanjeng Romo, because the same miss Dinda Anggarawati I so forget the circumstances.


My devotion to Kanjeng Romo and Kanjeng Ibu", Panji Watugunung immediately crouched down and worshipped to the Regent of the Bracelets after releasing his embrace on Goddess Anggarawati.


His four other wives and also Resi Widagdo and Wandansari also squatted to worship.


"Stand up all of you. I say welcome to the palace of Gelang-gelang Regency", Panji Gunungsari said immediately. They immediately stood up.


"Sorry Gusti Regent Bracelets, if I may I know. Who is this Watugunung Nakmas?", asked Resi Widagdo who was confused to see their scene.


"Bopo Rishis, please,


This Watugunung is my son. Did they not say anything to you?", Panji Gunungsari looked at Resi Widagdo who was surprised to hear the Regent's words.


The old man just shook his head while gawking. So did Wandansari.


"He is my husband, the daughter-in-law of Tejo Sumirat, Duke of Seloageng", added Dewi Anggarawati with a smile.


"He is also my husband, Gusti Prabu Samarawijaya's son-in-law, Maharaja Panjalu", Ayu Galuh did not want to lose.


Resi Widagdo was stunned by the big surprise he received.


"Who are these three?" said Resi Widagdo pointing at 3 concubines of Watugunung Panji.


"The three of us are also Kakang Watugunung's wife" replied Sekar Mayang with a faint smile.


Panji Gunungsari and Dewi Pancawati can only smile thinly while shaking their heads to see their five ghosts gathered.


Panji Gunungsari immediately ordered the palace guards to deliver Resi Widagdo and Wandansari to the guest hall.


While Panji Watugunung and his five wives rushed to Keputran Bracelet. Along the way to Keputran, Dewi Anggarawati stick with Panji Watugunung. Ayu Galuh looks upset while the three concubines understand.


Just as Ayu Galuh was about to protest, Ratna Pitaloka immediately withdrew her hand.


"What do you want, wild princess?", asked Ratna Pitaloka with a sharp glance.


"Look at them Kangmbok, stickiness continues.


We are not here" muttered Ayu Galuh.


"Based on stupid women, do you think we are also not upset with Kakang Watugunung?


But we also need to understand.


We share our love with Kakang Watugunung. And all this time, he was fair and kind to all of us. Is that not enough for you?", Ratna Pitaloka looked at Ayu Galuh's face.


"You should thank Anggarawati because she wants to share the same position with you.


You do not forget, even though the king's daughter, but in the eyes of Kakang Watugunung you are the same as us", said Sekar Mayang.


"We have been with Denmas Panji for months, we are each day together with him, happy to live life together.


While Dewi Anggarawati relented and stayed in the Bracelets.


If you still protest with Dewi Anggarawati, how about her position behind? Can't you think of this?", the usually calm and silent Goddess Srimpi, this time speaking.


Ayu Galuh was instantly silent.


The four of them then walked following the steps of the husband into the Prince Bracelets without saying much. Ayu Galuh now realized that the Watugunung Panji belonged to the five of them. They have to learn to share love and fill each other.


The afternoon soon changed night.


At the portico of the Bracelets, Panji Watugunung is sitting on the porch of the daughter in accompanied by his first wife.


Dewi Srimpi came to bring some small food and warm drinks. When she was about to step away, Dewi Anggarawati suddenly asked her.


"Dreams, please,


Where's our other brother? Kog is invisible?".


"Sorry Kangmbok Anggarawati, we don't want to bother you", replied Dewi Srimpi as she gave a smile.


"Why does that have to be?


We are brothers now. Kangmas Panji Watugunung is our husband.


Already, please call them all" said Dewi Anggarawati smiled thinly.


Dewi Srimpi immediately rushed to the rest room of the three wives of Panji Watugunung others. Not long later they empathize already sitting together in the porch of the prince.


The night is getting late.


The wives of Panji Watugunung have gone to their respective bedrooms. Patugunung and Dewi Anggarawati have also climbed onto the bed. Beautiful face Anggarawati red blushing. Her heart always pounded when with her husband even though they were married for a long time.


That night they made love with love.


**


Morning is coming...


The North Pakuwon Kadri.


A Bekel soldier ran into the main pendopo of the Panjalu army headquarters, as the top brass of the army was gathering.


Gasping for air as he ran, he said,


"Nor Gusti Senopati. Jenggala forces with a number of about 20 thousand troops moved to invade the Duchy of Lasem".


"WHATAAAA??"


Senopati Ganggadara immediately stood up from his seat.


"Bad!


Rajas, Maitreya..


Prepare your troops, today we go to Lasem".


Two young Senopati Daha immediately worshiped the Commander of the Daha Army and retreated from the main pendopo.


The sound of bende and buffalo horn trumpet rang out loud. Hustle and bustle of Daha warriors immediately prepare. As the sun briefly rose Daha's army moved rapidly towards Lasem.


About 18 thousand Daha troops led by Senopati Ganggadara as Commander of the Daha Army, flanked by two young senopati Maitreya and Narapraja. The leaders of Kembang Kuning, Lasem, Anjuk Padang, Kurawan, Bumi Sambara, Kalingga, Lewa and Muria led an army divided into several groups.


After crossing the Brantas river, Garuda Panjalu Utara troops led by Balapati joined.


Next day.


By the time the Panjalu Army reached the Lasem border, the Jenggala Army that had invaded the Duchy of Lasem had succeeded in subduing the newly appointed Duke of Vaisudana.


All members of the family of the Duke of Lasem were killed in an attempt to defend the palace of the Duchy of Lasem. Only a few people can escape death.


That night they rested and camped on the border of the Duchy of Lasem.


In a large tent they were preparing to attack the defense of the Jenggala forces who controlled the palace of Lasem.


"Gusti Senopati,


According to the password that I sent, they did indeed control the palace of Lasem. But it seems that the citizens of Lasem do not like their presence.


What should we do to conquer them?", said young Senopati Maitreya.


"They have slaughtered the family of Gusti Senopati's servant,


Please uphold justice", said Tumenggung Lasem, Wasikerta while kneeling to Senopati Ganggadara.


Hmmmm


"We must not be rash in action, either,


With such a large number of troops, it is not easy for us to defeat them.


As a resident of the Duchy of Lasem, you are so familiar with the terrain and state of the territory.


What is your suggestion, Wasikerta?", Senopati Ganggadara stared at the Lasem Tumenggung.


"We attack them from the west of Gusti Senopati, the palace walls to the west are not as high as on the other side.


"Good, okay,


Tomorrow morning we attack them from the west side of the duchy palace.


Maitreya, Narapraja..


Tomorrow morning once we leave", ordered the commander of the Daha army.


"Sendiko dawuh Gusti Senopati", Narapraja and Maitreya salute Senopati Ganggadara.


An eye from Jenggala who managed to infiltrate the Panjalu troops, heard all their conversations.


Silently he stepped out of the camp of Panjalu's troops, walking hastily towards a house of the people.


There, a thin-bodied man with a moustache rarely sits while enjoying a jug of glutinous rice wine.


"Rear of Waseso, the Panjalu army will attack the palace of the Duchy of Lasem tomorrow morning blind. They will attack the palace from the west", said the eyes of Jenggala to the skinny man named Waseso.


"I'll report this to Gusti Tumenggung Srenggapati, Gondho..


You are careful in your duty" said Waseso who immediately threw his rice wine jug. He dashed quickly towards the palace of the Duchy of Lasem.


Gondho, the eyes of Jenggala immediately returned to the camp of Jenggala troops outside the city of Lasem. The burly man returned to his place on the side of the large tent.


Morning is coming..


The Daha army led by Senopati Ganggadara moved quickly towards the west side of the Lasem palace.


Loudly, Senopati Ganggadara shouted to encourage his troops.


"Today, this,


We're taking back Lasem"
