THE SUN GOD SWORD
War
Wira Mangkubumi did not return directly to his residence. The man stood alone staring at the thousands of Swarnadwipa soldiers who were doing a lot of work.
The man's face was not so happy, at this time he was not sure he could go back to Swarnadwipa and reunite with his wife and son.
After a few days of being in this place, the man did not even meet his sister-in-law, Sungsang Geni. There were many things he wanted to tell, or just share the heartbreak and longing for his son.
“Arak!” Suddenly one patted the man on the shoulder, keeping him from a long daydream.
“Darma Cokro?” Mangkubumi's spirit smiled slightly, trying to act as calm as possible, but the look of his own face still could not be hidden from the eyes of Darma Cokro.
“This is the best wine for now, I purposely brought it for you..” Conversation Darma Cokro.
“Thank you..” Wira Mangkubumi welcomes a small pitcher offered by Darma Cokro.
“Your face is very messed up, friend.but I don't intend to know what caused it.” Darma Cokro breathed a heavy sigh with a small smile. “But sometimes I think, can I die peacefully, meet my wife and parents.”
“We won't die.” Wira Mangkubumi muttered little. “This war we will win.”
"How is it?"

“We have to leave this place..” Wira Mangkubumi gives advice to Lakunig Banyu. “Make as if this place is empty uninhabited, let them enter into the headquarters.”
“What do you mean..?” Impaling Ki Lodro Sukmo, he almost raised his tone without looking at Lakuning Banyu.
“If we want to win, leave this place! Let them in, make traps that trap, we'll earth scorch this place along with them in it.”
“What kind of tactic is that?” ki Lodro Sukmo. “Ma'forgive me, but isn't it something very funny, let the enemy into our house, and we instead go like cowards.”
“This development will destroy them all.”
“I agree,” continued Lakuning Banyu. “We will bury everyone in this place, along with the fortress that has long shackled us.”
Darma Cokro scratched his head, his forehead frowning. Darma Guru just begut-mangut sign agree, while the other elders, meskti not so agree forced to follow also agree.
“I leave this plan to you.” Lakuning Banyu appoints Wira Mangkubumi.
After the decision was passed, Wira Mangkubumi asked everyone to prepare mines inside the forest, as well as inside the walls. However, Wira Mangkubumi still asked some people to fight from the top of the wall.
Archers must stand guard on the wall, they are warriors who have the knowledge to relieve a fairly capable body. At least be able to avoid and escape the attacks that lead to them.
The Surasena warriors collected much of the oil they got from coconuts, forest distances and anything that could produce oil. Later the oil will be put in a strategic position.
If only there was demon powder, it was the best thing to trap the enemy to melt.
***
The long-awaited day has arrived, now it is beginning to sound the footsteps of the horsemen. Also the clattering of the feet of the soldiers who were screaming, like a man of doom.
All plans made by Wira Mangkubumi have been implemented. There were only a few hundred people standing on the wooden walls, using arrows smeared with oil.
It was just that Wira Mangkubumi was unable to break the ingredients to make the Demon Powder that could explode. Nevertheless, with the existence of demon chariots that could spew out 50 arrows in a single strike, they had enough power.
Ki Lodro Sukmo and Darma Guru were among the hundreds of archers.
Meanwhile all the Surasena soldiers had already left from that place, watching the movement from a distance.
Grap..grap..grap.
Then I heard a loud scream. “SERANG!”
The first wave of enemy troops came like an unstoppable storm, no less than 5 thousand troops.
“Release demon carriage!” Ki Lodro Sukmo shouted loudly.
Instantly thousands of arrows shot out rapidly, speeding through the wind and landing on the enemy.
“Thank you black prisai!” Shout one of the leaders of the army.
Thousands of people lifted the shield of hard metal towards the sky, and the arrows aimed at them could be driven away easily. Nevertheless, several tens of arrows still had time to pass through the sidelines prisai.
Dozens of people screamed in pain, they were hit by arms, chest and even head.
Not faltering in the slightest, the enemy moved forward towards the headquarters of Surasena, with the shields still facing towards the sky. Then the second wave advanced as well, they seemed to be reliable archers.
“Drop them!” shouting again the enemy.
Hundreds of arrows shot upwards, precisely at the hundreds of people standing on the walls of Surasena. Ki Lodro Sukmo smiled slightly, so far he has not seen any great people in the squad.
“They are quite smart.” The old grandfather muttered a little, then spat down while catching a single arrow that managed to reach his place. “Arrow like this will not be able to beat us.”
“Strike!” Darma Master shouted as well, then the second attack from the demon carriage again splashed through the air.
“They are close..” Ki Lodro Sukmo beckoned to Darma Guru. “Use your gun!”
Darma Guru pulled out two swords from the scabbard, one of the black-colored swords that could be controlled with just fingers. The black sword was then smeared with coconut oil mixed with distance, then burned.
With a single movement of his index finger, the black sword drifted swiftly carrying flames across the thousands of astonished-looking enemies. Then the sword struck the ground that was breaking.
A small trench filled with thick and slippery liquid, coconut oil and also various kinds of dry twigs and other oils that they have processed. For a long time the black sword stuck, until finally the fire began to spread and blaze.
The trench forms like a circle of cobwebs if looked carefully, and everything is filled with oil. Mangkubumi heroes needed thousands of coconuts to make the oil, and managed to get nearly 20 barrels of oil.
“They intend to bake us.” Shouting again the leader of the army, now they became a little panicked when the fire had not grabbed their bodies.
“The fire we created will not be too big, but mentally they can fall just because of it.” Little muttered Wira Mangkubumi from a distance.
And the man's words were evidently evident, the enemy subconsciously took down the shield and made a gap for the demon chariot to finish them off.
“SERANG!”Ki Lodro Sukmo's. “Stop them!”
