Pageblug in Korowelang

53. Village Attack

In the morning all of Sarah's troops gathered in the field under Sharif's leadership. Including Rangkuti, a new person recruited by Syarif without Sarah's knowledge. They wear black uniforms, black headgear and face coverings of the same color. Several times Sarif gave directions to his men who were ready to carry swords and machetes which they would use to cut down all those who were ready to oppose their new policy.

“We are going to war today and the war we will be fighting is not war against other countries but war against our own family. I know this is very hard but this is when you save yourselves and prove to Mrs Sarah that you are loyal subordinates. Are you ready?".

"Who is our commander-in-chief who will do whatever is ordered by the commander-in-chief according to the instructions given to the commander-in-chief. Don't ever doubt our health because the ladies and gentlemen have known for a long time. We are all loyal and we have no desire at all to boycott Shut up, Commander."

Syarif, who heard the narrative from his subordinates, laughed heartily in front of them. In his heart he thought to boycott all Sarah's policies by tarnishing his good name in front of the citizens more evil than he received from Sarah's directives.

"Good, I'm so glad you guys. Finally I became a part of this palace with all my heart without the slightest hesitation. I hope that the loyalty you have will remain in your chest and that you are ready to stand up for me and when you have to do it.”

"Ready, Commander. Now tell us what should we do? We will gladly do everything. It's been a long time since we've been at war and it's been a long time since my weapon was used to cut down human heads."

Sarif continued his speech before he finally asked some of his subordinates to pick Sarah up at his headquarters. While waiting for Sarah's arrival, Sarif continued to give speeches to his men. Until it was time for Sarah to appear before them, Syarif stopped his speech and gave all the time to Sarah, the great leader they admired because the figure of a beautiful woman really captivated the hearts of anyone who saw her.

"O soldiers, happy to see you lined up neatly in front of me today. My happiness cannot be measured by anything. You are all valiant and very loyal to me. I can not imagine the peak of this happiness. You are always smart in making me happy, never once disappointing me. And for today I ask you to remain loyal to Sarah, who is considered a teacher in the Sultanate of Alexandria. Are you willing to be my right hand and be the one to help me achieve my goals?"

"Ready ma'am. My life and death is only for Mrs. No one deserves to be the employer because only Madame understands our needs. During this time we have served and we know how very kind Madam is to us and our family. There is not a single desire to betray and disobey others. Mrs Sarah is the best."

“It's good I'm glad to hear you say something that makes me happy, but you must remember that I absolutely do not accept coups or power struggles because only I can rule in this world. If I hear that one of you is trying to shift my position, then at that time I will not be favoritism anymore and will not consider anything. At that moment he will die by my hands.”

"We wouldn't dare to do that, madam."

Sarah laughed at the answer from the soldiers. She was really flattered that they didn't display any attitude against her will at all. Several times Sarah gave reinforcement to her men until the appointed time came.

“Alright my beloved soldiers, it's time for us to show the general public that we have unlimited power. Never fail because I have absolutely zero tolerance for anyone who thwarts my plans.”

"Ready ma'am."

“Commander Sarif, please take over your troops and take them to Korowelang. Ruin the whole village, take the girls for me to make as a sacrifice for the king of Jin who always gives me strength. This month I need 35 girls to fulfill a thousand best offerings for my offerings."

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. Rangkuti was stunned to hear all Sarah's words. He couldn't think straight at all that the beautiful woman in front of him actually had a very greedy heart and he should be able to show everyone that he was his subordinates who are very loyal to her.

After being divided into several parts, Sarah's soldiers finally came out of their headquarters and used battle tanks. They headed to the area that was part of their task.

Panglima Sarif led his troops directly and he immediately took Rangkuti and himself in a black car. They then exited Sarah's palace towards the southern part of Korowelang. After traveling for half an hour they finally arrived at an elite village that looked like a dead city. Even though the sky was clear, the sun was shining showing off its authority, but there was no activity going on there. South Korowelang is really like a dead village and a dead city that doesn't seem to have any inhabitants. Everyone already knew that Sarah's army was going to attack them so they didn't dare leave the house.

“Stop right here and order everyone to get out of the house. No one is left inside.”

"Okay commander. We are ready to carry out orders."

Everyone got off the jeep including Rangkuti. They immediately ran to some housing and banged on the door with their guns. Rangkuti did not want to be left behind. He immediately stepped towards a large house that was tightly closed. Several times he tried to force open the door and asked the people inside to open it willingly and happily but several times his requests were ignored.

"Do you not love your lives so much that you refuse to obey my orders at all?"

There was no answer from within and right now Rangkuti really had to be able to show Sarif who was currently witnessing his actions that he was able to bring everyone in the house to their knees.

"Whoever is in this house, please try to disobey, and then I will slaughter you mercilessly."

No movement yet. Rangkuti is currently feeling very nervous but he is still trying to strengthen himself so that he can get good grades in front of the commander of Syarif.

Several times he kicked his foot against the door and tried to pry the doorknob to allow him to freely enter. His friends who saw Rangkuti's failure immediately approached and they gave help to the new boy in his army.

"You don't have to worry about breaking the door. You can simply break the window and enter.”

Rangkuti was stunned because he really felt like an i***t who couldn't think straight to do something he didn't want. It's easy but when we don't think calmly, it becomes very difficult and unimaginable.

After breaking the window. Rangkuti entered the resident's house and stepped into each room to look for the occupants who were hiding from the Sarif commanders. Several times he had to sigh in disappointment because no one was in the house. Rangkuti again combed every corner of the room, even this time he looked under the bed and several rooms that could be used as hiding places but failed several times.

“Ahh,” A voice sounded behind the door, as he pressed the door leaf against the wall. Rangkuti closed the door and saw two people hiding behind the door he was holding.

"Forgive us sir. We are completely innocent. We want to live peaceably and peacefully in our house without any disturbance and Mrs. Sarah." Said a man while holding his hands and bowing his body, not daring to look at Rangkuti's face, which actually did not show his rude attitude.

“Come out and obey my orders!”

There is no resistance from the residents who are now under Rangkuti's power. They stepped into the wide field across the street. There were already many people standing with their heads down, trying to surrender to what they were going to experience at this time.
