Mpu Nala is known as one of the figures in the Majapahit Kingdom with cold hands and intelligence. He became Panglima Majapahit or Rakryan Tumenggung.
The figure of Mpu Nala was mentioned since the reign of King Tribhuwana Tunggadewi to Hayam Wuruk.
Mpu Nala managed to build hundreds of formidable ships and brave troops to carry out the mission to conquer the archipelago in accordance with Maha Patih Gajah Mada's Palapa Oath.
Majapahit warships known as the Javanese Jungs with Cet Bang cannons at that time ruled the seas and were highly respected.
Mpu Nala's toughness in leading the Majapahit army is recorded in the Kakawin Negarakertagama, the Prapancasarapura inscription, the Batur inscription, the Bendosari inscription, the Palungan inscription and the Sekar inscription.
Mpu Nala was appointed Commander of Majapahit by King Tribhuwana Tunggadewi. This figure, who is also known as Admiral Nala, was often at Ujung Galuh Harbor (Surabaya Tanjung Perak Port), which at that time was the base for the Royal Majapahit Royal Navy.
His desire to strengthen the Majapahit war fleet was realized after Mpu Nala tried to uncover the secrets of the construction of warships left by the Mongol army. The ships were used to strengthen the Majapahit Navy.
He found the bulky construction of the Mongol army's hulls to be a weak point as it made the ship's navigation systems difficult to control.
Until finally, Mpu Nala finally designed the ideal ship shape for the Majapahit navy. He was able to design a more streamlined hull but much larger capacity than the previous ship. This found ship is called Jung Jawa.
The ship designed by Mpu Nala is capable of accommodating hundreds of navy soldiers from the Majapahit Kingdom, along with supplies to live for one year in the middle of the ocean, capable of transporting tens of thousands of horses.
In addition to a very good design, the Majapahit naval warships are also equipped with cet bang cannons which are known for their ferocity in every battle.
The cannons made by Mahapatih Gajah Mada, which were installed on the warships of the Majapahit Navy, made sailors from Europe anxious when passing through Indonesian waters.
The revamping of the Majapahit Navy was finally able to be completed by Admiral Nala who then led a maritime expedition throughout the archipelago under the supervision of Mahapatih Gajah Mada.
Around 1339-1341, the Majapahit Navy subdued the entire western archipelago, starting from the Samudera Pasai empire, continuing throughout Sumatra Island, the Malay Peninsula, and ending in Kalimantan.
Mpu Nala as the Commander of the Majapahit Royal Navy has been extensively reviewed by Agus S Serono in the book "Jayaning Majapahit: The Story of the Knights Guarding the Ocean", and Irawan Joko in his book "Majapahit Maritime Civilization".
The Majapahit Warlord has a precise strategy by placing dozens of warships to guard five important points in Indonesian waters.
The war fleets of the Majapahit Kingdom were, among others, stationed in western Sumatra, namely the Cluster 1 Fleet which served as guardians of the Indian Ocean. This fleet is controlled by an admiral from Central Java.
The Gugus 2 fleet guards the South Sea, or the South Sea of Java. This fleet is led by an admiral who is a son of Bali.
Meanwhile, the Cluster 3 Fleet is tasked with guarding the waters of the Makassar Strait, and the Ternate, Tidore and Halmahera regions, under the command of a Makassar admiral.
The group 4 fleet has the task of guarding the Malacca Straits and the Natuna Islands led by an admiral from West Java.
While the Cluster 5 Fleet has the authority to guard the Java Sea, all the way to the east to the spice islands of Maluku. This fleet was led by an admiral from East Java.
Flag ships were placed in each of the Majapahit warship cluster fleets. The flagship is the seat of supreme command over all attack ships, supply ships and flagship protection.
When initially led by Mpu Nala, the Majapahit Royal Navy used warships of the former Mongol army, which were sent by Kublai Khan to conquer Java, during the reign of Kertanegara.
The presence of Admiral Nala as the commander of the navy of the Majapahit Kingdom, was the beginning of Gajah Mada's awareness to ask for his help. Gajah Mada, who had said the Palapa Oath, realized that it was impossible to fulfill his oath of domination over the archipelago, relying only on land routes.
When the Amukti Palapa oath was uttered by the Mahapatih of the Majapahit Empire, the islands of Bali, Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Tumasik (Singapore) had not yet been under the banner of Majapahit rule. Gajah Mada needs a powerful maritime fleet to unite the islands through maritime expeditions.
The naval power of the Majapahit Kingdom at that time was still very weak. Gajah Mada ventured to ask for help from Admiral Nala to strengthen the navy of the Majapahit Kingdom. The strengthening of the navy is carried out in terms of the quality and welfare of the soldiers, as well as the quality of the warships.
The Majapahit ships were created by Mpu Nala from a kind of giant wood that only grows on a secret island. This made the Majapahit ships quite large at that time.
Mpu Nala succeeded in building the Majapahit Kingdom's navy to become the largest and strongest in the plains of Southeast Asia. The Majapahit Royal Navy under the command of Admiral Nala has about 40 thousand soldiers. This power made Majapahit respected in the Southeast Asian region, even to the Chinese Empire.
Admiral Nala became the commander of the jewel navy of the Majapahit Kingdom, who had a high genius in his time. When there was no marine school, Mpu Nala was able to create sophisticated ships with capital from studying the warships belonging to the Mongols.
Thanks to Admiral Nala's cool hands, the naval power of the Majapahit Kingdom became very formidable and invincible. This maritime power has made Majapahit's dominance legendary until now.
