History of the Magics of Rante-Bui in Aceh Indonesia

In the history of Aceh's resistance to the Dutch. There are mystical stories. One of them, the buffalo rifle worn by resistance fighters. One of the buffers was owned by Tgk Chik Di Tiro. It was discovered by the Dutchman Tgk Di Cot Plieng. Until now it is still stored in the Colonial Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in the Ethnographic of Aceh.

After Snouckh Horgronje, perhaps the Schimist was a Dutchman who knew about Aceh. With his knowledge of the language and customs of Aceh, he became a Dutch officer who could mix freely with Acehnese. Especially supported by his quiet and controlled conduct.

But as a Dutch soldier, he was still not fully accepted by the Acehnese. Especially in the war battles. In 1906, Schmist served as a lieutenant in Jeuram and Seunagan who was confused. In those two areas, every day the tragedy and ambush with the lair occurred.

He did not want the incident to overrun his troops, Schmist was looking for a powerful spy. For him, it was not difficult to find the spies. What is difficult for him is to keep his relationship with the spies secret. Moreover, in that area he faced the Teungku Puteh group, who also had many powerful spies to trick and infiltrate the Dutch banners.

So â € œperfectâ €? Â inter espionage also happened. Between Schmist and Teungku Puteh send their spies to the field. As Schmist has many spies around Teungku Puteh, there are also Teungku Puteh spies around Schmist.

Against the scene of mutual oppression of the opponent, H C Zentgraaff in his book â € œAtjehâ € ?? Â reveals. â € œThis is a slick, smooth fight game, which at any time can hatch into one of the most famous and extremely fanatical attacks, and it's all over. So the people of Seunagan are very well known to our troops (Dutch-red). We never feel confident about tomorrow, â € ?? he wrote a former Dutch soldier in his retirement to become a journalist.

Furthermore, the former Java Bode editor remembers, among the many Teungku Puteh spies, there was a trader who opened a small shop in Seunagan's (red market) Keude. Zentgraaff called it a very clever clown, who once also came to Schmist for a mere talk. â € œWhich he wanted to dig up information around Schmist for then submitted it to Teungku Puteh, â € Â Â explains Zentgraaff.
One day, Schmidt received good news from one of his eyes. He immediately reviewed the information provided by the spy. At the same time, the traders from Keude Seunagan came there, which was none other than the spies of Teugku Puteh.

Both were brought into a room by Schmist. The spy immediately told the information he had brought. While the sword heard it carefully. But the presence of the Teungku Puteh spies was finally known to Schmist, after he dismantled Schmist's plan and his troops who would bribe the Aceh guerrillas. Esokya sipedagang was ordered to arrest.

Between Schmist and Teungku Puteh, besides having both mystical powers. According to Zentgraaff, Schmist is the son of Aceh who has since been enrolled and sent by the Dutch to Nezerland, so that the Acehnese children become pure Dutch people who know very well about Aceh.

Schmist's mystical power, Zentgraaff admitted to hearing from Cut Fatimah, the widow of Teungku Keumangan, who during his lifetime gave persistent resistance to Dutch troops in Jeuram. â € œIt has told me that Schmist is one of the few people. He has a buff chain, which makes it immune. He also knows the mystical things, "said Zentgraaff.

But Zentgraaff was not sure Schmist had the buzz. According to him, who owns the objects that can be aunt is only Teungku Brahim in Njong, Teungki Chik Samalangan and Teungku Cot Plieng. They are the spiritual leaders in Aceh (ulama) who sparked the spirit of the fight against the Dutch. â € œTeungku Cot Plieng is the most important among them. Our most patriotic (Dutch-red) patrol commanders have no hope of confronting him. No one dared to tell the whereabouts of a bunch of hideous clerics from the very sacred scholar, â € ?? write Zentgraaff.

Similarly, Dutch troops continued to hunt him, until later in June 1904, Dutch troops led by Captain Stoop managed to find his trail between the two streams of Gle Keulabeu. He was ambushed, but Teungku Cot Plieng escaped from a "needle hole" with leaving Al Qurâ € ™ an and stamped his seal.

Save the stamp found from Teungku Cot Plieng, touted as the heritage of Teungku Syeh Saman Di Tiro, known as Teungku Chik Di Tiro. Because no longer had the stamp of the stamp, Teungku Cot Plieng was finally attacked by a patrol troop of Lieutenant Terwogt. In that ambush, the charismatic scholar was also shot dead.

His body was then propped onto one of the bivouac, for identification purposes. Dutch wonder, because the corpse is not decaying. To ensure that it was Teungku Cot Plieng, the Dutch finally summoned Panglima Polem.

There, the Commander-in-Chief of the Polem salute the corpse by prostrating himself among the Acehnese who were silent for his respect. â € œWhen we meet, Panglima Polem says it's a secret of God, â € Â Â clearly Zentrgaaff.
The Commander of the Polem then released the rider, from Teungku Cot Plieng's body and gave it to Van Daalen, a Dutch officer. But Van Daalen refused, because of disliking things that were mystical.

After a large cleaning operation was carried out by Dutch troops in Pidie, the apprentice was then awarded to Veltman other Dutch officers who were often called as à ¢ â,¬Å "Master Guidelines". He did not even use the anchor. He believed in a sharp steel iron and a revolver, rather than an anchor.

Finally, it was awarded to the Colonial Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, which is still kept in the ethnographic of Aceh. à ¢ â,¬Å "I managed to get a picture of her portrait thanks to the help of a former marsose soldier named Lamster, à ¢ â,¬Â clearly Zentgraaff.
