Naval Battle part : 3

Dakshin Bhartiya Empire, Lakshadweep Islands, Arabian Sea.

|| 1655 Vedic Calendar, three months and one week after the New Year ||

Following Vijay's inspirational speech, the Navy swiftly set sail from the Lakshadweep Islands. Admiral Gangadhar led the charge, with all three naval commanders of the Bhartiya Empire joining the battle.

Vijay knew that the current situation was dangerous, as concentrating all resources in one battle could leave potential openings for enemy countries to exploit. However, Vijay decided to take this chance. With the Empire's Navy concentrated in the Arabian Sea, it was highly unlikely that the Mughal Empire would attack in this direction. As for an attack through Bengal, it would have been possible if not for the Ahom Kingdom's support.
