The Grassland Alliance Invasion Part 9
"There's no time. Just convey any idea you have," said Jayakalana firmly, despite his serious attitude, he was always polite in his actions. He was aware of his weaknesses, so he always listened to the ideas of his subordinates.
Instantly, the camp became quiet.
These generals indeed had a strong reputation. They were able to lead an army on the battlefield, but the advice they gave was sometimes too overwhelming.
Of the five colonels, Jayakalana had high hopes for one, Colonel Jaka Tarub, who was also a second regimental colonel. Jaka Tarub is from the Tarub Tribe and is a brother-in-arms with the Head of Maspion, Jaka Sembung.
Although Jaka Tarub had the barbaric nature of the mountains, he had keen senses and expertise in leading an army.
As expected, when he saw the silence in the tent, Jaka Tarub immediately spoke, "Our enemies number two to three times that of us. Relying on the eastern stronghold of the city, we will not be able to defend it. I think we should retreat before the enemy arrives."
"Back off, where are we going?"
"To Maspion!"
"Maspions?"
"Yes, right. First, most of the barbarian tribes from the mountains lived there, and independent regiments were also stationed there. Second, the region has a strong defense and is better than the camp to the east of the city."
Hearing his words, all the generals agreed.
"Agreed!"
"Agreed!"
************
"Well, the decision has been made. We're all gonna retreat to Maspion."
"General, we need to plan this well and must not show weakness to the enemy" said Major Agus Fadjari, head of the guard unit, giving a warning.
"Yes, we really have to plan it" Jayakalana said as she stroked her mustache and turned to the intelligence officer. "Send all our intel and plans to the commanding unit immediately. In the meantime, ask them what we should do next."
"Understood!"
In fact, when the Military Intelligence Division spies found Lotu Wong, they had sent two reports, one to a camp east of the city and the other back to the headquarters.
The only information they needed to provide to the commander unit was about the plan to retreat.
Time was very limited, and after the meeting ended, the camp in the east of the city became busy.
To avoid the suspicious moves of the 3rd Division, Roberto's men hide in Smelter and show no presence.
Across the camp to the east of the city, there was only the Smelter City Protection Division and Jogo Pangestu troops.
The two men remained silent for several days without any activity.
To outwit the enemy, Jayakalana specifically devised a plan by ordering the guard unit, which was the only cavalry unit in the 3rd Division, to provoke the enemy.
Meanwhile, the main forces moved quietly through the back lane of the camp.
Sambari Hakim and Jogo Pangestu were completely unaware of all this.
The hatred of the two of them towards Heru Cokro was profound. Every moment, they imagined that the moment of revenge would come.
As time went on, the plans of the IKN Alliance began to unfold.
The forum became in an uproar, and they felt deep sorrow for the fate of Jawa Dwipa.
"Java Dwipa will be destroyed, the IKN Alliance is so shrewd!"
"The IKN Alliance remains silent, but when they act, it is truly shocking!"
"The IKN Alliance is playing cleverly!"
"The situation in the Indonesian Territory is changing. Now who would the ordinary noble take notice of?"
************
There are various comments from various parties. Some gave a thumbs up while others felt sad. Whether they are against or supporting Jawa Dwipa, no one believes that Jawa Dwipa can escape this situation.
At the same time, the professional commentators hired by the IKN Alliance announced that the IKN Alliance had planned far ahead, and the satisfaction and arrogance of Jawa Dwipa had given them a chance. Even the global forum was surprised by such a change in situation.
Jack Rothschild, who was convinced that Java Dwipa would survive, was speechless. The territory of Indonesia is really full of dangers and fierce competition.
That afternoon, the hajj sparrows released by the Military Intelligence Division from the city's eastern camp flew to Java Dwipa with new information. The 3rd Division was in fine shape with the support of Maspion, allowing them to last for at least 4-5 days. Within a few days, they can plan and prepare.
Raden Partajumena is preparing a big reward for the enemy. After the camp was completed, Lotu Wong led Ditya Mahodara to a high platform and saw the eastern camp of the city before them.
"Why is the camp so deserted?" Ditya Mahodara was suspicious.
Lotu Wong frowned, "Too quiet!"
"Do we need to send a spy to investigate?"
Lotu Wong shook his head, "No need. Anyway, tomorrow morning we'll launch an attack."
"Alright, I'll go check on our troops." Ditya Mahodara turned around and left.
Lotu Wong watched Ditya Mahodara who left and nodded. He was very satisfied with the personality of Ditya Mahodara. Although Ditya Mahodara did not have the talent of Patih Pancadnyana, and his personality was not very popular, and rarely spoke, but he had the qualities that were respected by Lotu Wong. Ditya Mahodara carries out every command with full responsibility.
Ditya Mahodara secretly arranged everything about the development of the army, looking for suitable campsites, planning camps, securing resources, arranging guards, and so on. Under his supervision, everything went smoothly and Lotu Wong had nothing to worry about. Ditya Mahodara was a general who allowed the ruler to feel calm.
The next day, the alliance army launched their assault on the camp east of the city. However, the strange thing was that even though they were facing an increasingly advanced enemy, the eastern camp of the city remained silent.
Seeing that, an uncomfortable feeling approached Lotu Wong. The attack went smoothly without any resistance, and the alliance troops managed to enter the camp. At that time, even a fool would realize that something was wrong.
The two armies gathered at the camp east of the city. Lotu Wong and Roberto frowned with gloomy faces. Inside the camp, the rice field statues wearing armor stared at the alliance troops like little clowns mocking them.
"Janck, As, Cel*ng!" shouted Jogo Pangestu, while swinging his sword and breaking the rice field statues to release his anger.
Roberto is calmer. He went beside Lotu Wong and asked, "What do you think?"
"Obviously, our troops have been monitored, so the enemy gets the information early. I think they backed out yesterday afternoon." Lotu Wong was a bit worried.
Feelings like this when things are out of control are uncomfortable.
Roberto nodded and agreed with Lotu Wong's analysis. "The north and south sides have been blocked, so where can they escape to?" He called Sambari Hakim, who also had a grim face, and asked, "Is there any other territory around here?"
"Yes, to the west is Batih Ageng; to the east near Salt Island, there is Maspion. Both areas are under the Java Dwipa Region."
Roberto nodded and continued, "What do you think they're running away from?"
The Judge was silent for a moment; he was not sure.
Just at that moment, Ditya Mahodara and Ditya Yaahgriwa approached them.
Roberto politely asked, "General, have you found anything?"
Ditya Yamahgriwa touched his mustache, "Based on my observation, they escaped yesterday afternoon, and most likely they went eastward." As expected of an experienced general, he had a broad insight.
"Is there any chance they're trying to trick us on purpose?" Lotu Wong was still feeling anxious.
"There's such a possibility." Although he said that, Ditya Yamahgriwa was actually quite sure of the answer. However, due to the situation, he did not want to be too direct.
The response of Ditya Yamahgriwa made Lotu Wong's face change.
Ditya Mahodara, who was standing beside them, looked a little awkward. He was very understanding of Ditya Yamahgriwa.
"Ahem!" Roberto helped Lotu Wong out of awkwardness and looked at Sambari Hakim, "Is there anything special about Maspion?"
The only task for Sambari Hakim is to answer well. "Maspion is a mountainous region ruled by barbarian tribes; mountain barbarians still live there." As it turns out, Sambari Hakim has done a lot of research on the Java Region of Dwipa.
"Oh yeah!" Sambari Hakim suddenly hit him on the head and said enthusiastically, "In addition to the city protection unit, they also have a combat regiment, probably to fight the beasts on Salt Island!"
Roberto and Lotu Wong looked at each other, then they made a decision.
It seems that the 3rd division is most likely in Maspion.
Roberto looked around and his spirit increased. He said out loud, "The enemy has just retreated and most likely they are near here. Even if they reached Maspion, they would not be ready to fight. That small region won't be able to fight our great army."
"really so. The retreating enemy shows that they do not have the confidence to face us; they are cowards." Lotu Wong stepped forward and said, "Now we're going to Maspion."
"Go to Maspion and destroy the 3rd division!" nadim Makaron.
"Go to Maspion, destroy the 3rd division!" The roaring roar passed through the entire wilderness.
