The Gojalisuta War Part 18
Seeing the arrogant and overconfident Patih Pancadnyana, Ditya Amisunda remained silent. He did not have any evidence and anything would only be a guess, so he could only believe what Patih Pancadnyana said.
Using the cover of Raden Wisata's army as well as the dust created by Arya Setyaki's forces, Patih Pragota and Arya Prabawa led 100 thousand cavalry and quietly left the camp, heading east.
The iron cavalry of the Dwarawati army was unlike the light armored cavalry of Trajutresna's army, and could carry milk and dried meat. What these soldiers brought was meat that required fire to cook. Compared to Trajutresna's army, it was much more troublesome.
Fortunately, Heru Cokro and the rulers of the Java Dwipa Alliance took out their Military Ration Pill and reduced their logistical pressure. Otherwise, without such assistance, these troops would not have made it this far.
Within a short period of time, the troops managed to enter Henei prefecture.
Henei Prefecture, although it was a new prefecture that had taken over Dwarawati for a while, as king Dwarawati ordered his men from there and gave gifts to the people. They are very happy and supportive.
In the eyes of Patih Pragota, there was nothing mysterious or secret about their movements. He was very clear that the operation had to be quick and precise. First, they had little resources left and could not last long. Second, if they went out for too long, they would cast doubt on Trajutresna's army.
After Patih Pragota and Arya Prabawa finished their discussion, they chose the route that the army had to go and prepared an ambush. They wanted to attack them before they could react and destroy them in one fell swoop.
The ambush point they chose was not a canyon or a special land, but a very normal plain. It was hundreds of miles away and apart from the official road, it was only a few scattered villages.
One hundred thousand cavalry hid in the villages. Not far from the village there was a dense forest, as the dense vegetation was also a good protection for the troops.
Seeing such a large army, the villagers were terrified.
Other than obtaining grain from the village, the soldiers did not do anything uncontrollable. Raden Partajumena was very strict and did not allow his troops to rob civilians.
After the troops settled, Patih Pragota sent scouts to investigate and monitor the movement of the reinforcements.
Two days later, the army troops appeared as expected.
Looking from afar, that army of 150 thousand people stretched over 5 kilometers. Their squad that was once the best, has deteriorated and is not as good as it once was.
The moving troops were not suitable for stealth attacks because they moved too long. Even if they killed the front enemies, the ones behind could form and they would definitely not be able to kill them effectively. Therefore, the place that Patih Pragota chose was where the army set up camp.
As they traveled for a long time, and coupled with the fact that there were very few Dwarawati troops here, they naturally paid little attention, as they set up camp.
What they did not know was that not far from there, a pack of hungry wolves were staring at them.
The moment the army set up camp, the hundred thousand iron cavalry were like black floods and rushed out of the forest directly towards them.
The thunderous clattering of steps made the entire ground shake, it was like a tsunami. Black waves engulfed the ground, and the green plains were now covered in black.
At that moment, the army had already started to gather in the camp. Traveling non-stop for a day is exhausting. They put down the heavy grains they were carrying and prepared to settle down. They did not expect the enemy forces to attack, thus causing panic in the camp.
Shouts, the roar of horses, and various sounds echoed. It was like they were in a huge market.
Fortunately, Ditya Ancakogra was a capable person, and he calmed down the troops while rearranging them at the same time. He ordered the cavalry to gather and intercept the Dwarawati army while the infantry formed behind them.
A force of 150 thousand people would naturally not set up camp in one place. They are divided into three groups. When the front group set up camp, the middle group would rush there while the back group was still moving.
Patih Pragota led 50 thousand men to attack the front group. Arya Prabawa leads an army of players to destroy the central guild. Ditya Ancakogra personally led the middle group.
The front camp, after being attacked by Patih Pragota's forces, their army could not be formed. Patih Pragota led his men and led the massacre at the camp.
The center group camp was where the commander of Ditya Ancakogra was located. General Giri asked to lead an army of players to attack them. This was the only group of elite soldiers left.
The Javanese cavalry of Dwipa was a higher level than the Mandura forces. That elite army was naturally unable to contain it, and facing the metal flood led by the 2nd regiment, they had no choice but to get involved.
It was a battle of spears and shields, which ended in a full victory of Dwipa Javanese cavalry.
Ditya Ancakogra who was very confident, could only lead his guard and escape.
Even for the arrogant Arya Prabawa, upon seeing the power of players, his eyes froze. Before this trip, he was not happy because Patih Pragota had treated the strength of the player too well, but now he understood the reason.
Although those elite soldiers were not as strong as before, they were still elite units. However, in front of the players army cavalry, they could not even withstand the attack, Arya Prabawa was stunned.
In the vast plains, troops stretching for miles were destroyed by the armies of the Mandura and Dwarawati alliance. Not only were they unable to connect with the back union, but they were broken into many pieces.
The army was mostly made up of infantry. A small number of infantrymen were not enough to stop the cavalry of the Mandura and Dwarawati alliance army. Instead they were pinned down by Patih Pragota and Arya Prabawa, instantly destroyed.
As the army lost its cavalry, the remaining infantry soldiers were unable to defend decisively, so they were like a group of sheep under the pursuit of the wolf soldiers of the Mandura and Dwarawati alliance, running to save their lives.
The vast plains were filled with fleeing soldiers. They dropped their gear and weapons, some even took off their armor in order to run faster than their comrades.
Arya Prabawa was a bloodthirsty person, so how could she miss such a good opportunity? He ordered the troops to be ruthless and not accept any surrender. Wherever the iron cavalry passed by, they simply left behind a lifeless body.
Patih Pragota was also not a saint, and was also overwhelmed with anger, so he was just as ruthless.
A good opportunity will also not be missed by Heru Cokro. The player's strength took the lives of their enemies, making Heru Cokro feel his battle contribution points increased rapidly.
