Prince Without Crown

Prince Without Crown
The Galuh royal army began to depart


That same morning, about ten thousand soldiers were led by prince Indra Mahesa, Commander of Pratisara, Commander of Rangga, who was, Senopati Arya Prana and Tumenggung Paki left the capital of Galuh kingdom to the duchy of Gedangan to join the soldiers who were there.


In accordance with the emblem on the flag, this time the greatest possibility was, they would use a peacock formation.


Armed troops spear they prepared in the head, this will be led directly by Senopati Arya Prana. While the cavalry troops are on the left and right wings, each of which will be led by Commander Pratisara and Commander Rangga.


As for the troops on foot, were in the middle of the army led directly by Panembahan Ardiraja. While the archer troops, in the tail section directly led by Tumenggung Paksi.


The purpose of this formation is clear by relying on the speed of the wing warriors, a strong defense of the soldiers armed with shields and spears, assisted by a troop of pedestrians ready to trick the enemy to approach the tail section. When they are fooled and enter the tail, then the cavalry will corner them from behind. Before the cavalry attacked, they will first be attacked with a leaning arrow that will be fired from the archer soldiers who are in the tail or at the very back once in the form of this peacock.


When these troops arrived at the king's city's boundary, there they were waiting for them to be clothed in what appeared to be a martial forest. These numbers are not many. At least about three hundred people. However, it was not the quantity that was seeded from these warriors. But it is their quality that speaks.


It so happened that Bayu Gatra, was able to recognize some of them. This made Prince Indra Mahesa who had been a bit hesitant, began to be able to believe that they were sincere to help.


After Prince Indra Mahesa nodded his head, now one more person came forward. They numbered about twenty people wearing clothes ranging from pants, clothes and purple headbands.


"commander. We are students of Padepokan kala Wungu. Our teacher ordered us to help the warriors of Galuh kingdom to fight against the power of the Earth Spikes. This is because, our teacher found out that in their army, there were many fighters from the black faction,"


"Commander! We are the villagers who wander to study in various schools and silat colleges. Hearing that the Prince had joined forces to defend the kingdom of Galuh, we deliberately returned from overseas to help defend our homeland. Please, Prince acting as Commander-in-Chief to allow us to join this army,"


"Hmmm. Alright. But I can't promise you all anything. There is no good food, no proper bed, and no reward I can give you all. And one more! When you join the army that I lead, then you are also directly part of the soldiers of the kingdom of Galuh. That way, all of you must listen and obey whatever commands from me, once the commander-in-chief for this soldier. If you can provide good cooperation, then I greatly confuse your presence in this army. However, if you can't and want to fight alone, then with a very heavy heart I say that, let only us fight. You just let them be spectators. May when I die, you will be kind enough to bury my body,"


"Prince too. The words of this prince have discouraged us. We understand that no sweet word will caress an ear on the battlefield. We also know there will be no dancing accompanied by music. There were only the cries of spirit generators, as well as the clang of weapons clashing with sparks. We're all ready to hear your orders and do whatever you say!" Answer them seriously.
