The results of the weapon experiments were naturally presented to everyone, allowing them to make a general assessment of this power and to make corresponding adjustments based on it.

"In that case, let's install this on the main ship. At least it can unleash a much stronger power when necessary, a power that the 'Ninghai-class' can't even compare to..." Chen Xi made the decision after thinking it through for a moment.

The attack speed may be slow, and the attack range may be short, but the power of this attack is enough to make it worthwhile to leave a lasting impression.

Even if it's not the best option, it can still make up for the navy's shortcomings or areas where it's not good at something to some extent.

Regarding the role of the battlefield, the understanding is basically the same.

Like many weapons and equipment, its overall capabilities are not particularly outstanding, but the unique effects brought about by its specialization can make it perform exceptionally well in specific battlefield environments.

A well-rounded approach and a specialized, focused approach are both different, yet equally valid, paths.

"Once the decision is made, we can notify the Lu family shipyard to begin installation. If necessary, we can set sail immediately. Xiaozhi's plan still requires the protection and efforts of the navy..." After slightly refining Fazheng's plan, Jia Xu gave the corresponding result.

Whether it's luring the enemy deep into our territory or using a bait-and-switch tactic, the Kushan Empire's navy must not tie down the army forces on the sea at crucial moments. Only by doing so can Fa Zheng's plans continue to be executed.

"Then I will also inform the royal family to rein in the Kushan forces in the north, so as to provide effective and powerful support," Li Ru said calmly, putting away the bamboo slips in his hand.

The person in charge of the Han imperial relatives was naturally Liu Ye. For some reason, he was not present in the government office and could not contact them by passing on a token.

Because this matter is quite special, it cannot be transmitted through tokens, especially when Liu Ye is also in Chang'an. It is best to communicate and exchange information offline to confirm the plans and bottom lines of both parties.

Numerous communications and exchanges have indeed proven the token's excellence and convenience. However, as a top-tier sage, especially given his unique status, Li Ru still maintained a degree of caution.

Li Ru was more cautious and distrustful than others regarding the token that Liu Tong had researched and created.

This caution and distrust stemmed not from the token's power, but from Liu Tong's.

In most cases, there was no conflict between the two of them, and they were even working towards the same goal. However, because their methods were different, their perspectives also changed.

Having personally tested Liu Tong several times, Li Ru knew Liu Tong's capabilities and bottom line better than anyone else.

It is precisely because of this ability and bottom line that Li Ru has been relatively mild in dealing with certain matters.

Even if it were milder, it would still be a sharp knife, a knife placed on the necks of many.

Regarding the general outline laid out by Fa Zheng, everyone present added their own supplements, making the plan and arrangements full of completely different variables. Even Liu Tong had to participate, confirming and monitoring the progress of the plan, and responding and notifying as quickly as possible in case of unexpected situations.

...

"Why do you suddenly have time to come over?" Liu Ye looked at Li Ru who had come to visit, feeling a little nervous. After thinking about his actions over the past few days and finding nothing wrong with them, he looked up at Li Ru and asked as calmly as possible.

Even someone like him would feel cautious, even hesitant and conflicted, and a little afraid when facing Li Ru.

Although we've been colleagues for so many years, this working relationship can't mask the fear and apprehension in our hearts.

Because they had been colleagues for so many years, Liu Ye knew very well what kind of person Li Ru was.

This is a truly well-thought-out plan that can achieve its goals without regard to the cost, even if that cost is itself.

However, the vast majority of those targeted do not need to pay such a high price.

"I just want to discuss some things with you and find out about the recent situation..." Seeing Liu Ye's reaction and attitude, Li Ru immediately put on a friendly demeanor and then began to learn about some things.

When faced with Li Ru's questions, Liu Ye answered quickly and decisively, answering what he could and directly denying what he couldn't.

At their level, there are very few things they can't discuss, especially in private meetings where there's even more to talk about.

"The progress needs to be accelerated; the current pace is too slow..." After understanding Liu Yao's progress, Li Ru shook his head on the spot, not very satisfied with the current pace.

Liu Ye rolled his eyes and gave Li Ru a disapproving look. "There are certain procedures to follow when a princess is to be married. These things concern the princess's reputation, as well as the other party's. If we speed things up under these circumstances, they won't be satisfied. Don't tell me you can't see their attitude towards the marriage. They don't just want the princess; they also need respect..."

"Having already accepted the marriage into the family, do you still need this kind of respect?" Li Ru looked at Liu Ye speechlessly, never expecting that the other party would also be bound by dogma.

Becoming a son-in-law would naturally lead to a significant drop in status and position. The fact that the other party is willing to accept this shows that they care about the princess and are only interested in her. Wouldn't it be much faster to speed things up by skipping unnecessary procedures and lowering the level of preparation?
“Others don’t need it, but the Yuezhi people do.” Based on his understanding of the Yuezhi people, Liu Ye gave a rather confident and affirmative answer.

"How long will it take to complete the infiltration? We need more information..." Li Ru asked expressionlessly, tapping the table lightly.

"At this pace, the marriage can be completed within a month, followed by a major infiltration in the following month, aiming to finish everything before November..." Liu Ye estimated the time and finally gave a relatively accurate result.

"Two months? That's suitable. They've been locked up for quite a while anyway. Let's release them..." Based on this timeframe, Li Ru made some adjustments to his plan and then gave his decision. (End of Chapter)
