278 Summary

Dakshin Bharatiya Empire, Vijayanagar State, capital city - Hampi.

As soon as the battle commenced, Vijay received real-time updates about the unfolding conflict.

On the pivotal date of October 2nd, 1655, a significant blow was dealt to the Mughal Empire through a meticulously coordinated assault employing three distinct methods across multiple locations simultaneously.

Firstly, the Empire's elite special forces, under the leadership of Dinesh Reddy and Lingesh, executed a highly successful operation, eliminating over half of the naval officers stationed at crucial bases in Gujarat and Sindh. This strategic manoeuvre severely hindered the Mughal Navy's ability to mobilize swiftly, given the shortage of officers, thereby presenting a strategic window of opportunity for the Dakshin Bharatiya Empire to capitalize upon.
