章 343: Brutal Recruitment

December 15th, 1655

The Mughal Empire, region of Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow

While Vijay was happy and excited about the construction of new battleships back in Kochi, the Mughal Empire started to move. With the ousting of the prime minister, Muhammad Muizzu, the empire began to see the aftereffects.

Corruption increased suddenly as it became blatant and rampant. This was previously controlled by Muhammad Muizzu and the previous prime minister. But now that this position is vacant, and His Majesty Muhammad V, the emperor, has no ability to keep tabs on all the thousands of middle to lower-level administrators, this horse of corruption that was kept at bay was suddenly released, becoming a mad horse destroying everything in its path.
