Watching the defensive wall stand stronger than before, a frown appeared on Heru Cokro's face. He turned to Raden Said and said, “If it continues like this, the territory defense unit will not unite it anymore. Give me my word, order the infantry units to advance. Destroy the wooden gate by all means!” As he spoke to Raden Said, the second part of the sentence was actually addressed to the officer.
"Yes!" the orderly turn around and carry on the orders.
After receiving the new order, General Giri's face became ferocious, he shouted loudly, “Brother, Your Majesty we are watching us! As the main force, we still haven't knocked down that damn gate, it's a shame for the infantry unit! The brat from the White Wolf Army unit asked His Majesty to replace us with them! Can you let that happen!?”
"No!" The soldiers were furious and answered loudly.
"Then what should we do?" General Giri's voice sounded loud and clear throughout the unit.
“Let go and keep our name!” The soldiers are angry.
“Good, this is the determination I need. At my command, we move and attack! If the gate is still standing upright, then I am General Giri, better to die than to face the disappointment of Your Majesty!” shouted General Giri.
"Groan!" General Giri personally acted as the spearhead, and his actions inspired the other soldiers.
Then the infantry unit carried the wood, raised the shield, and formed a tight protective layer in the formation. They attacked in the rain of arrows without fear of death, and rushed towards the wooden gate.
30 Minutes later, under the attack of the fearless infantry unit, the wooden gate finally collapsed. Without the slightest delay, Heru Cokro commanded the White Wolf Army unit that was east wing forward, and slid into the valley. During this time, the territory defense units remained in formation and slowly moved forward.
The moment the gate had collapsed, the entire defensive wall was at its end. The infantry unit army restlessly rushed into the defensive wall, valiantly fighting the hunters above it.
The late White Wolf Army unit took over the task of defending the gate. Coincidentally, they met with reinforcements led by Typhoon Akhsan. The moment the two enemies met, Zev Prianka's eyes turned blood red and she shouted, “Kill them all!” After finishing his sentence, he charged forward and engaged the hunters in close combat.
Needless to say, 500 White Wolf Soldiers who were fully armed against 200 tribal hunters with simple weapons, the war quickly turned one-sided. Knowing their defeat was inevitable, Typhoon Akhsan led the tribe hunters and surrendered.
On the defensive wall, the Seng hunters were pushed back and cornered by infantry units. After all they wouldn't be a match for the official military forces? Wahil Typhoon led his men to defend against the attack and shouted, “Are you the Javanese army of Dwipa? Why are you attacking us without any reason?”
General Giri grinned while his sword sent a hunter to his death. He laughed and replied, “Haha, it's funny, you attacked our White Wolf Mine Farm and now pretend nothing happened? Today, I will crush your tribe into crumbs!”
Right at this moment, Heru Cokro climbed onto the wall and heard the conversation. He immediately shouted, "Well Cyclone, tell all your people to surrender and you'll all be safe!"
“Hmph, we are not cowards. We'd rather die than surrender!” Wahil Typhoon said non-stop.
"Ah, really? All right, you hunters aren't cowards, but what about your family?” Heru Cokro said in an unconvincing manner.
His words caused a wave of commotion among the hunters. Their families would be left helpless against Jawa Dwipa if they died here.
“The wise submit to destiny, Cyclone, I will not repeat it again, surrender and you will be saved. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel.” Heru Cokro gave his offer again while tightening his face.
"Huh!" Wahil Typhoon let out a long sigh, and without a choice, he threw away his weapon.
After the hunters were disarmed, Heru Cokro ordered infantry units to hold the captives, ordered White Wolf Army units to move into the valley, and gathered other tribe members.

"Director Said, how many wounded and dead were there?" Heru Cokro worried about his army.
“Paduka, 20 died, 35 were seriously injured, and 60 were lightly injured.”
Heru Cokro's face turned black, and solemnly said, “We still suffer great losses! The Bureau of Military Affairs must properly handle the deaths. Regulate the basic welfare and livelihoods of soldiers who are severely injured after retirement. At the same time, start looking for more recruits, I think it's time to consider the formation of a reserve army unit.”
"Understood!"
“This war does not reward us anything. The poor Seng tribe are like refugees. We suffered a deficit this time.” Heru Cokro said in great pain.
“At least we have built our prestige on this piece of land. From the way I see it, as news of this war spreads to the mainland, other small-to-medium tribes will start to approach us, seeking an alliance or protection.” Raden Said was convincing.
"Well, I guess I can only think of it this way."
“Your Highness, what are your plans for the Seng Tribe?” ask Raden Said.
“Bring them back to the region. Bring what can be brought. While those we cannot bring will be left here.” Heru Cokro said helplessly. He has no better way. He had suffered such a huge loss, so it was extremely impossible for him to let the tribe leave freely. He could only bring them back to his territory.
However, he saw that Raden Said frowned in response to his solution, so he smiled and said, "Don't hesitate to speak!"
"Good Majesty. I have looked carefully at this valley, and it covers a wide area. The ground that Zinc took in was like a drop of water from a jug compared to the entire valley. The valley was filled with water plants. The most interesting thing is that there is a lake. There are also fertile grasslands suitable for grazing. Therefore, I suggest that we turn this valley into our own pasture. My master is well aware that Batih Ageng is still building its basic infrastructure. Even if it is finished, to build pastures outside the region, we still have to face a great threat from nomadic tribes. In comparison, this valley has not been enlightened yet, so we will only need one company of garrison teams on the defensive wall and we will feel comfortable.” Said Raden.
Heru Cokro nodded in agreement and said, “Your advice is very good. However, the valley was too far from the territory, and a trip through the mountain forest path would not be that easy!”
