Invasion of Robbers Part 5
Heru Cokro said goodbye to the members before walking down the territory wall. As he walked down, the cavalry was resting, and the medical team did a simple bandage for those injured. The wave of attacks went as expected. However, since they had prioritized the destruction of the siege weapons, they had lost 50 people.
"Baginda!" Looking at Heru Cokro, Wirama bowed.
Heru Cokro nodded and praised him. "You've done well."
“Your Majesty, what should we do next?” Wirama's worried.
“Of course we have to end it hard and destroy them completely. This time the infantry unit will follow you all out of the village.”
Wirama was stunned, asking, “Your Majesty, the robbers still have that many people? Why don't we use the wall to hold on?”
Heru Cokro shook his head. “They are already scared, so why would they dare to keep attacking. If it happens as I expected, when we launch our final attack, they won't be able to set up any defenses, and running will be their only option. We don't have time to waste with these robbers. Do not forget that the north gate is still under attack.”
"Understood."
After a short break, Heru Cokro personally led his troops and brought 550 cavalry troops and 800 sword shield warriors out from the village gate.
This time, Heru Cokro was not prepared to use any tactics such as braiding. He will face and then move forward. The cavalry was like a flood, and after attacking the marauding forces, began a merciless massacre. The sword shield warriors followed behind, and under the leadership of General Giri, they were valiant and courageous.
By the way, the sword shield warriors were bored from having to defend all day, now that they had the chance to attack, they could let out all pent-up anger.
As Heru Cokro expected, the Java attack of Dwipa was something that was not expected by the robbers. After taking a lot of casualties, the robbers who were already frightened could not survive anymore. They did not hesitate anymore and ran to save their lives.
Currently, Heru Cokro had another thought. He rose above the barong and shouted at the running robbers, "Put down your weapons, and we will not kill anyone who gives up!"
Seeing the ruler using such a trick again, the soldiers followed with a tacit understanding. “Put down your weapon, and we won't kill anyone who gives up!” The loud screams caused their eardrums to tremble.
To be honest, the robbers who attacked Java Dwipa did not make sense anymore. Since the main leader had died, giving up was not a bad choice. Therefore, without hurry, the robbers threw their weapons and surrendered.
Surely, there are stubborn people who are still trying to run away. To them, Heru Cokro gave no chance and ordered the cavalry to attack and kill them one by one. Needless to say, the four-legged creatures were clearly faster than the two-legged creatures, and the majority of those who tried to run were killed.
Seeing that running was useless, more and more robbers began to surrender, the weapons in their hands were like hot metal, and they quickly threw them to the ground.
Heru Cokro had no time to count, and left the sword shield warriors to send the prisoners back to the barracks. Heru Cokro brought the cavalry back to the village, then crossed the village and headed towards the west gate.
Hadikarya currently still did not know what was happening at the west gate, so it still tried its best in leading the cavalry to break through. Unfortunately, this cavalry was good at attacking and not besieging. Coupled with the lack of siege weapons, it was much more difficult.
Just then, Heru Cokro led a cavalry army and rushed to the north gate. Heru Cokro orders Wirama to bring troops and wait at the gate while he climbs into the village tower.
Seeing Heru Cokro, Raden Said and Andika who were in charge of guarding the north gate were astonished.
Raden Said asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty, has the western side won?"
Heru Cokro nodded and laughed. “That's right, the threat has been eliminated. General Giri sent all the prisoners back to the barracks. I was worried about you guys, so I brought the cavalry here to help.”
"That's cool!" Raden Said and Andika said together.
"Let's go, let me see the robber cavalry." Heru Cokro walked beside the village tower and looked across, only to see 800 strange cavalry hiding outside the reach of the bed arrows, not daring to expose themselves.
As for these cavalry troops, Heru Cokro did not want to let them go. After this great battle, even though Java Dwipa was victorious, they suffered many casualties and needed new blood. This robber is a good substitute. After the battle, Jawa Dwipa will be upgraded and will need to add troops. Because that was the case, to get this group of robbers under their flag was a perfect fit.
Heru Cokro did not care about their identity as robbers, because after they were on payroll and with the passage of time living under a military regiment, the bandits within him would slowly perish. Robbers who like to commit crimes, not much. Most just want to earn money, and by force, have no choice but to become robbers.
Heru Cokro turned around and asked Raden Said, "Director Said, based on your observations, what kind of character is the leader of the robber cavalry?"
“I mean Your Majesty?” Raden Said was shocked.
“You don't have to care about what I think. Just tell me how you feel.” Sometimes the director likes to think too much.
He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Based on my observation, he doesn't look like a bad person."
"Oh." Heru Cokro's eyes twinkled and he asked curiously, "Why are you saying that?"
Raden Said arranged his words and said, “Since the beginning, the enemy directly attacked the village gate and prepared to attack. However, when they discovered that the strength of our bed bow was too great, the leader immediately retreated and did not continue to attack rashly. Therefore, I estimate that he cares about his men. Usually, such leaders are not evil and immoral.”
Heru Cokro nodded, he couldn't help but agree with that.
Heru Cokro thought for a moment before saying to Raden Said, "Therefore, let's talk to this leader!"
"Oh!"
Walking down the village tower, Heru Cokro rode the barong and ordered the village guards to open the gate and lay a suspension bridge.
