"Now, let's put it this way. If the road network of the Empire connects every city, town, and village in the Empire, how fast do you think we can mobilize our armies, ammunition, weapons, medicines, clothes, armor, and every other necessary element for a war? And this is only one of the important aspects of building the unified road network. Imagine how fast news can be transported from one corner of the Empire to another. Imagine the convenience in trade and the revenue that would be generated by the construction of the road network. And the most important part is that with the implementation of a unified road network, local rulers like in Bangalore, wouldn't be able to form by taking advantage of the king being far away."

Vijay, upon hearing Mohan's words, chuckled in amusement, understanding Mohan's concerns as he thought to himself. Maybe in this era, people wouldn't fully grasp the importance of a unified road system for a country. But he, from the future, know the significance of a unified road network. The Germans were the first to utilize their unified road network to the fullest extent and fight a war on multiple fronts against a stronger enemy, yet they held their ground. A major contributing factor for this was their unified road transportation system, which immensely helped with logistics in the war.

Vijay noticed the doubt in the researcher's question as he explained, "Your doubt is correct; they may not be able to launch an all-out attack on us if they are so far away on another continent. However, they are a significant seafaring nation and one of the few major naval powers in the world. With this advantage, they have the ability to travel all over the world and conquer territories for profit. Unfortunately, we are their next target and they already have a stronghold in Lanka. Let me also inform you that they have managed to produce a long-range attack weapon called a cannon, which shoots iron balls weighing several kilograms. These cannons are capable of being effective hundreds of meters ahead of the firing point to destroy their enemies' fortifications and artillery. That's not all; I have recently received another piece of bad news that they can also produce a weapon that shoots small iron projectiles called bullets at incredible speeds to kill an enemy almost instantly."

Similar cases occurred in various parts of the Empire where some lower-caste people seized the chance to earn their first pot of gold. Since the requirement was to work in compost piles, it was mainly the lower-caste and poor people who did the work. When they discovered how easy the task was compared to their daily labour, they became more enthusiastic and brought in more of their fellow people. Not only was the task fulfilled, but it was also completed in just a few days, resulting in the collection of at least 5 tons of saltpeter. Upon receiving this news, Vijay was elated that he had managed to collect more saltpeter than he had initially imagined. When he learned the reason behind this success, he felt happy for the lower-caste individuals who had earned their first pot of gold.

Vijay intended to collect saltpeter through organic methods instead of chemical methods, as he knew that South India had no saltpeter mines and using the chemical method for production was more complex and lacked enough raw materials. There was another way to make saltpeter: the organic method. In compost piles or manure heaps, various microorganisms break down organic matter. During this decomposition, nitrogen-containing compounds from the organic material are converted into nitrates. Potassium, often naturally present in soil or added through organic materials, combines with the nitrates formed in the decomposition process to create saltpeter. Unfortunately, saltpeter produced in this way took a long time to produce, and the quality was not reliable for industrial use. However, Vijay had to make do with what he had and produce gunpowder as soon as possible. Fortunately for him, Bharat had a culture of forming compost piles in every village for its manure, which could be used as fertilizer. This meant that saltpeter could be collected from these compost piles, allowing Vijay to expedite the process and produce gunpowder as soon as possible.

"The Bharatiya Civil Sciences Department will contain multiple branches. First, let me introduce the Metallurgical Branch, headed by Hey Ram. HeyRam is the Factory Director of Raya Metal Works. He has earned his place through engineering, designing, and developing the blast furnace in our country, which makes him capable of leading the Metallurgy Department."

Vijayanagara already had an intelligence agency that primarily operated for the military. However, Vijay intended to establish a separate secret service department directly under his control. Once the department gained public acceptance, he would formalize it as the Ministry of Intelligence.

The Ministry of War would encompass both the army and the navy as department-level units." As Vijay eyed the old man, Logananda rose from his seat and offered a military salute to signify his acceptance of the role.

After fully hearing Vijay's experience, Ramaiah began to contemplate the way the rebels' ambushed. "Your Highness, based on what you said, I can only think of a single possibility. Most likely, someone from the rebel's side must have been privy to a secret entrance leading towards the centre of the city. Unless Vayu Deva (the god of wind) simply transported them, I cannot think of another explanation."

Vijay felt a pang of embarrassment, wondering why he had suggested the Trishul plan. He had seen it in the movie "Baahubali" in his past life and thought it would have practical significance in this war. But now it seemed less practical.
