The Conquest of Udo-udo Part 2
Akhsat propped up his forehead with his hands as he was having a severe headache. He said with annoyance, “It can't, it can't! So what should we do?”
All the ruling families looked at each other, all of them did not know what to do.
"Why don't we return those things to them?" One of the members said softly.
“It is too late, if we agree with the messenger, everything will be fine. We rejected it and since the enemy has gathered their troops, they will not let it stop.”
Inside the tent, the atmosphere became very pressing.
At this point, a member of the ruling family stood up and suggested, "Why don't we give up?"
The moment his words came out, everyone panicked as if he had opened Pandora's box.
"Rush?" Everyone stammered.
“We can't. We are the descendants of the savannah. How can we give up without fighting?” Solidala shouted with dissatisfaction.
Akhsat felt a tremor in his heart. He knew that the worst outcome would come soon. He did not have the strength to prevent fear and cowardice among the ruling family.
One should not treat the ruling family as rats. In fact, they were the true core of the tribe and held all the power. Since they wanted to surrender, even though as the leader he did not agree to, he would not be able to control the army. The logistics of the army were controlled by all these ruling families.
Akhsat closed his eyes, and thought that his ambition to become ruler had ended.
After a long while, he opened his eyes and said, "Haryono, about submission, you go and handle it!"
Haryono was the one who suggested surrender. He stood up and said, "Okay!"
“Tribal leader, we can't give up, we can still fight!” Padatala tried to stop him.
"Guards!" Akhsat did not even see Padatala and instead called his bodyguard.
“Ready Paduka!” Four guards entered the tent.
“Capture Solidala and throw him in jail!” Akhsat knew that one of the envoys' conditions was to hand him over.
To prevent an accident, Akhsat had to imprison Padatala.
"Tribal leader!" Padatala had a face full of shock and was speechless.
To be honest, he was Akhsat's right-hand man and about locking him up, Akhsat could not bear to do so. Unfortunately, the situation forced his hand, and he had no choice.
"Catch her!" Akhsat could not bear to see what he ordered cruelly.
"Yes!" The guards were all extremely loyal to the tribe leader. Although surprised, they did their job without hesitation.
Solid's heart grew cold and he stopped fighting.
"All of you, disbanded!"
He had failed in his mission of becoming a ruler. His usual energy and spirit faded along with it. The ruling family, after seeing that, who knew what they felt in their hearts as they left quietly one by one.
To be able to bring down the Udo Udo Tribe without bloodshed was completely unexpected.
As the army reached outside the Udo Udo Tribe territory, they were confronted with Haryono, who rushed over and surrendered.
After understanding his intentions, Heru Cokro did not know whether to laugh or cry. He did not expect his actions to have a good effect, and could help him persuade them without using a single troop.
Even so, Heru Cokro did not let his guard down and ordered his troops to advance.
The large army was like a whirlwind as they blew towards the Udo Udo tribe. Furthermore, one could see some light armored cavalry who were scouts sent by other tribes.
Heru Cokro did not stop them and instead showed off the military power of Java Dwipa. The wandering tribes are like that, they fear the strong and oppress the weak.
Under the sky and white clouds, tens of thousands of men troops moved forward in an orderly manner. If one personally saw it, one would be enchanted. The largest tribe in the meadow, the Pangkah Tribe, only has 10 thousand people.
Heru Cokro ordered the village protection regiment of Batih Ageng to enter the camp and take over the defense work. After that, they would take over all the equipment and disarm 3000 male soldiers.
Surrendering without fighting, be it soldiers or commoners, they were all still a little wary and non-submissive. Heru Cokro would naturally be careful if they turned around to bite him.
Only after finishing with all the items did he not worry and start meeting the important people of the tribe.
The Udo Udo Tribe tent
Heru Cokro was respectfully invited to sit down. Akhsat brought all the ruling families and kowtowed to their new master.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Heru Cokro noticed that his eyes were a little sour, and when he knelt down, he did not want to. Since things were in a hurry, Heru Cokro did not know what to do with them. “Many of you are sincerely giving up, I feel very happy, so are you all going to move to Jawa Dwipa and enjoy our wealth?”
All the ruling families looked at each other. This was another way of saying he wanted to keep an eye on all of them. Since they had no choice, they could only agree to it.
The enemy who took the initiative to surrender, then Heru Cokro naturally would not kill everyone and do anything stupid. To leave all these ruling families in the tribe, however, Heru Cokro was worried. Taking them to Java Dwipa and spending the rest of their lives is the best option.
With that, they could act as a sign for the other tribes. If one of them is unable to hold on and has no way out, giving up is still a good option.
In the long run, dropping the Udo Udo tribe has a very big meaning. It announced the entry of Java Dwipa into the meadow, and acted as a stepping stone for the future.
As for short-term gains, the most important thing was to obtain the barong and 3000 elite soldiers.
Based on his calculations, in addition to the 6,000 barongs prepared for 3,000 individuals, the Udo Udo tribe still has 3,500 more.
The 3000 elites were separated by Heru Cokro and sent to the 2nd, 4th and 5th regiments.The 3000 replaced cavalry would become part of the independent division and be stationed at Camp Pamong Lor.
Of the generals, the leader of the 10 men was appointed to the rank of sergeant, and those with 100 men under him were made to be lieutenants. As for the 3 with 1000 under them, they faced a different fate.
This does not mention the locked-up Padatala. He will be sent to the Jawa Dwipa prison and spend his days there.
Of the remaining two, one was named Jayamedho. He is 45 years old and is an experienced parent. Heru Cokro arranged for him to retire and spend his old days in Java Dwipa.
What Heru Cokro admired was that young man.
He was 26 years old and was given his name in the meadow. He was not part of the tribe and came from a small tribe that was destroyed by the Udo Udo tribe. Akhsat admired his quality and broke the rules to allow him to lead 1000 people.
