Invasion of Robbers Part 4
At 13:00, the robbers launched another attack. This time, Hadirasa did not leave a single reserve force and ordered all of his troops to attack, giving them enough pressure that they could not care about their northern gate.
Heru Cokro stood in the tower of the village and seeing that their 1000 cavalry in the wings had left, he immediately got a bad premonition.
As expected, in the sky above the north gate, a signal bullet appeared which was a sign of a sneak attack.
"Command the Pantura naval fleet to return to the protective river of the village and assist in the defense of the northern gate."
"Yes your Majesty!"
After the envoy left, Hesty Purwadinata said, “These robbers are very cunning and intelligent. Because when they have found the opponent's weakness, they will never stop to exploit it.”
Heru Cokro laughed. “At first I did not have 100% confidence, but now I can make sure that Jawa Dwipa will win.”
"Why is that?"
“The enemy's raider controls himself and wants to use the cavalry to attack our northern gate. He did not know there were 400 soldiers there as well as the Pantura naval fleet. Most importantly, those who moved the cavalry would open up the 600 cavalry we had hidden near the west gate. Originally with 1000 cavalry there I did not dare to attack, yet now they chose to die! Of course I will meet their expectations.” Heru Cokro explained.
Hesty Purwadinata's eyes were bright and smiling. “No wonder, the enemy will definitely not expect that Java Dwipa has so many cavalry that has not been used.”
Heru Cokro nodded, sending another instruction. “I order general Wirama to get ready to come out at any time. Wait aba-abaku.”
"Yes your Majesty!"
"Sister Jendra, why not let them go now?" Maya Estianti asked curiously. The little boy finally got used to the fighting environment and walked out of the dugout.
Heru Cokro laughed and explained. “Now the robbers have just launched an attack, and be it stamina or morale, they are at their highest condition. This is not the right time to attack.”
"Oh!"
An hour later, the battle in the west was still deadlocked. Although the robbers added an extra 1000 elites, the city's protective forces had an additional 300 men. Coupled with cetbang cannons, both sides were still equally matched.
The ambush at the north gate was ineffective, and the west gate was deadlocked, so Present could not remain calm anymore. Especially as the number of injured people increased, their morale had reached a tipping point, and if nothing was done, there would probably be deserters. Present did not dare to take it too casually and personally led the ranks to boost morale.
Heru Cokro stood on the tower of the village and upon seeing their leader enter the fight, he heaved a sigh of relief. He called the major of the Srikandi Pana Unit Sayakabumi, pointed to the leader and said, "General Sayakabumi, do you see the middle-aged man who rules in the middle of the battlefield?"
Sayakabumi who had extraordinary eyesight could clearly see it. "I saw it. That's their leader, right?”
"That's fine. Now, do you have the confidence to shoot him?”
Sayakabumi took a deep breath and said carefully, "He's roughly 1300 meters away from the wall, and with the reach of the bed arrow, I think I can try it."
Heru Cokro nodded. “General Sayakabumi, bet! Remember, it is better if you shoot both simultaneously, because this is an opportunity that we only have once.”
"Understood."
After taking aim, the three-arc arubalista shot at the same time. An arrow that was as big as a spear, flew towards the main leader of Adirasa.
Heru Cokro who was standing on the territory wall, stared at the track nervously. Sayakabumi did not disappoint him and the two arrows one after another accurately discovered his position.
At that time, he was still trying to improve the morale of the troops. Facing the two sharp arrows, he had no way of reacting before they stabbed him, killing him instantly.
The death of Presence caused the morale that had just risen and fell back, to fall even more. Especially the way he died was too shocking for the bandits. They never expected that the enemy could shoot a terrifying arrow from a distance of 1300 meters.
Heru Cokro would definitely not miss such an opportunity and shouted, "Send me my orders!"
"Ready Master!"
“Immediately order the cavalry out of the village to break through the defenses and destroy the enemies."
"Yes your Majesty!"
Under the territory wall, 600 cavalry were waiting nervously. After getting the order, Wirama excitedly shouted to the people behind him. "My brother! Now it is our turn to shine!”
"Kill it!" 600 cavalry screaming.
These great warriors were locked up all day, even civilian teams were dispatched. Only they have to wait their turn. As of now, they had finally gotten the chance they had been waiting for, how could they not be excited?
As the village gate slowly opened, 600 cavalry shot out from the village gate like sharp arrows to kill the enemy. Behind them, the village gate that was opened was quickly closed.
The news of the death Present slowly spread throughout the looter camp. The current robbers had low morale, and it seemed like they had lost the heart of their troops. The attack from Dwipa's Javanese cavalry shattered the last hope they had and shattered their fighting spirit.
Wirama was used to this kind of attack.
Especially during the Pamuksa War, from beginning to end. Wirama has witnessed the greatness of Gajayana, and learned a lot from him. He was also a hard worker and during the break, he asked for help and learned from Gajayana. Gajayana is not a selfish person, she also has a good impression of Wirama. Therefore, he helped her without holding anything back.
Six hundred cavalry under Wirama's leadership galloped among the robbers as if there was no one there. Since the robbers were preparing to attack the village, so their formation was definitely a siege formation. Facing the sudden attack of the cavalry, how could they block it?
Wirama is also clever, leading his cavalry to focus on destroying ladders, catapults, and moving arrow towers to help the allies get in the upper hand. When their siege tools were destroyed, they were forced to retreat.
After touring for a while, Wirama did not dare to stay too long and led the troops back. The robbers are frightened like birds and have no power to stop their retreat.
The next battle actually entered the Javanese rhythm of Dwipa.
Of the 3 marauding leaders, their main leader Adirasa has died, their second commander Hadikarya is trapped at the north gate and their third leader, Hadikarsa is captured. The robbers at the west gate had no one to lead them. Even though they still had a little resistance, they did not know what to do, whether to go forward or retreat.
Heru Cokro did not give them much time to think. After overcoming the danger of the territory wall, he ordered General Giri to prepare the sword shield warriors to destroy the robbers.
