Machine War: Infinite Frontier.

"Recently, the number of people entering and leaving the country has increased by 300% compared to before. We have found that many dangerous elements have entered the country through various channels. The public security situation has also become serious, and the conflicts between regulators and natural persons are increasing day by day."

"The Atlantic Federation Fleet has arrived near the coast of Orb. The Atlantic Federation, Eurasian Federation and other powers have recently begun to impose sanctions on our country. The existing stockpiled materials will start to be in short supply in a month, and the assistance provided by PLANT will take at least another month and a half to arrive. There is still a half-month difference in time."

"The public opinion is now very unified, and everyone is demanding that Master Shizhen abdicate. The Earth Federation is also discussing whether to impose further sanctions. Judging from the current situation, if we really suffer more severe sanctions, the impact on us will be unpredictable, especially the impact on the people will be devastating."

"Master Shizhen..."

In the huge conference room of the Government Affairs Hall, Xiao Yun sat in the main seat of the conference room and listened to reports from one person after another. In addition to these, there were various other issues. To sum it up, it was just one word: chaos. The whole country was in chaos, and no aspect of the economy, politics, diplomacy, and public security was unaffected.

Cagalli sat on the left and remained silent, while brother Sanada kept wiping his sweat. Xiaoya's father, the head of the Jiyang family, closed his eyes calmly, as if he didn't care about the current situation at all.

Charles, the former Emperor of Holy Britannia, was also at the meeting as an advisor. He was sitting behind Cagalli and looked almost the same as the head of the Jiyang family.

But Xiao Yun, who usually seemed very frivolous, was listening to other people's reports more seriously at this time. He took a very rare serious attitude to face the current situation, and recorded and sorted out all aspects of the situation through the meeting computer.

After everyone finished reporting, Xiao Yun knocked on the table gently to quiet the meeting room, and Charles and Ji Yang's family head also opened their eyes.

"Everything is only temporary, and the difficult period will soon pass. I have summarized all the questions you have raised. The sanctions imposed by various countries are nothing, but they will affect the normal development and operation of private enterprises. In essence, other forces that impose sanctions on the private sector have harmed and threatened the property safety of our citizens. I will make reasonable arrangements for this."

"As for the supply issue, PLANT will also speed up the process, compressing the one and a half month time by half, and deliver some supplies to Orb in advance. Orb is not a large country with a small population, so it shouldn't be a problem how much supplies can be consumed every day with PLANT's full support."

"As for the public security issue, if there is a shortage of police force, let the Land Defense Force help maintain public order. Citizens who want to leave do not need to be stopped. Just maintain normal order. As for those who come in, they must be carefully screened. At least no threatening elements can be allowed to enter Orb through normal channels. Let the intelligence department and special forces take action to find those who are causing trouble. Those who enter the country illegally should be arrested or killed."

"The diplomatic department can announce that our country does not accept any threats and is ready to go to war to safeguard our national interests. The Orb Army will enter the third combat readiness state from today. All fleet aviation units will begin 24-hour patrols. No rats can be let in. The First Fleet will be dispatched to the territorial sea border to directly confront the Atlantic Federation Army. We will announce that we will conduct military exercises in the designated waters. We will not be responsible for any losses they suffer if they enter the exercise area without authorization."

Xiao Yun was not prepared to make any concessions. Although he had not said anything, it did not mean that he was satisfied with the current situation in Orb. Xiao Yun had never been satisfied with the situation in Orb since the end of World War I. However, at that time he really did not have much time and energy to deal with things here.

Now that I have some free time, I can deal with the problems here. Although I am a little too anxious, Durandal has actually made a lot of preparations a long time ago. The Orb PLANT Alliance will be absolutely invincible once the World War II begins. Now they are just waiting for a suitable opportunity to start the war.

In short, Orb can provoke and be tough, but they must not be the first to open fire, at least not openly. He is just waiting now, waiting for LOGOS to lose patience, waiting for the situation to become more chaotic, and for all the monsters to jump out.

A warehouse full of various new machines used for experiments in the library had already been filled. Although for Xiao Yun and his team these were just test machines produced in the process of creating perfect machines, for this world these machines were already super-standard. Even if one randomly picked out a mass-produced Justice Gundam and activated the three-red system at full power, it would be able to compete with the best machines of the new generation. Well, there would definitely be no problem during the outbreak phase.

But before that, Xiao Yun himself had to act as the opener. The main combat forces and aces were now all scattered in different worlds. Now that there were no problems in other worlds, he could temporarily mobilize them all back and, by the way, send some transforming fighter jets over.

MS naturally has considerable advantages in close combat. Transformable fighters can fight beyond visual range. Interference from neutron jammers is not a problem for Xiao Yun and his team who have a brand-new communication system. FOLD communication and quantum communication are both far better than the current communication system of World No. 1. The communication interference from GN particles is not necessarily worse than that of neutron jammers.

"Also, let me announce to the public that Cagalli and I will be getting married in a month. I sincerely invite all parties to come to Orb as our guests."

Kagali glanced at Xiao Yun fiercely, pursed her lips, and finally lowered her head and remained silent.

"Hmm?" The head of the Jiyang family had been silent, but now he suddenly spoke: "This is not right, your old man clearly said that it is our Jiyang family, Shi Zhen Xiao Yun, you don't take your old man's words to heart."

For some reason, the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly changed from serious to something else. Led by Brother Sanada, a large group of people began to look up at the sky. Of course, there was only the ceiling above them, and they were probably looking at the mosquitoes on the ceiling.

Xiao Yun blinked and looked at the head of Ji Yang family: "She doesn't want to."

The head of the Jiyang family opened his paper fan and said with a smile, "In Aobu, we believe in the parents' orders. We in the Jiyang family have never said that we disagree or are unwilling to do so. You should think about this matter carefully. Our Xiaoya has already reached the age to get married. How long do you want her to wait for you?"

"That's something we need to think about carefully." Xiao Yun frowned slightly and nodded in approval, then said, "Change it. Announce to the public that I, Shizhen Xiao Yun, will be holding weddings with Cagalli Yura Asha and Ya Ot Jiyang at the same time."

"Tsk tsk tsk, you are so shameless." The head of the Ji Yang family looked at Xiao Yun in disbelief and said speechlessly: "Such things can happen at the same time? How can you let them announce to the public that the current Prime Minister Orb is a sex-hungry ghost who wants to marry two wives at the same time? How can such a thing still exist in this era?"

Xiao Yun was also helpless: "What should I do? Your Ji Yang family is so prominent, I have to give an explanation, right? It's okay for the child to have your family name, and the middle name can just have Xiao."

Sanada pondered for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, uncle. In many places, you can marry four wives. It's a belief, so you have to marry four. Otherwise, why don't you just join Xiao Yun?"

"I'm going to take your sister!" Xiao Yun stared at Brother Sanada in amazement, but Brother Sanada was actually thinking: "There are girls of the right age in the Sanada family's side branch, so we can barely add one."

Someone spoke more objectively: "Normally, there is no such restriction on families in our country. In fact, many people have mistresses, but they have never made it public. Wouldn't it be bad to make such things public? How about Master Ji Yang, let your Xiaoya suffer a little?"

Ji Yang jumped up and down: "That's my daughter, not yours. I wronged her? Why don't you wrong your daughter?"

"I want to feel wronged, alas."

"Alright, alright, let's go together." Xiao Yun made the final decision directly, and said: "It was originally a ceremony, so what if there are more people? The meaning is greater than the purpose. What's wrong with me, Xiao Yun, marrying another wife? At the beginning, the old men were not clear and I was dizzy. This family came to say that the marriage contract was finalized, and that family came to say that the marriage contract was OK. Have you ever considered my body? Am I not tired? I know I am excellent, but what can I do? I can only open my heart. I am not afraid of gossip, so why should you be afraid of shit?"

The head of the Ji Yang family was immediately furious: "Damn it, you are so shameless. I finally know what old man Shi Zhen and his men like about you!"

"You think I'm shameless, and it's like you've been hanging out outside for so long and don't have many female confidants. What's the matter? Are you too shy to bring them home? I'm embarrassed. I have several female confidants. I'll introduce them to you next time." Xiao Yun pouted, too lazy to argue with this old guy: "Then what should we do? Let your Xiaoya go to the church alone with me, and only invite people in the circle to be witnesses. If you say it's okay, I'll do it."

"Hiss." The head of the Ji Yang family took a deep breath. What a shameless guy! He could use such a shameless trick that would hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt himself by eight hundred.

But when it comes to canceling the engagement, Ji Yang's family definitely has no such idea now. After all, an alliance marriage is certainly the best thing.

Sanada broke the silence: "That's fine, but Cagalli's wedding must be public anyway."

Everyone agreed with this statement, including Xiao Yun. After all, the imprint of the Asha family was so deep that the weddings of everyone else, including Xiao Yun, could be low-key except Cagalli's. The people also wanted to see this scene.

Patriarch Ji Yang thought for a moment and calmed down: "I'll go back and ask my daughter for her opinion."

Xiao Yun said, "There are two choices. The first is to do it together. The second is to have a ceremony with Cagalli alone in the church with everyone present as witnesses after the ceremony. Neither of these two is possible. I have no choice. Anyway, we have to complete the engagement. We have no other choice."

"I know that Cagalli and Xiaoya will definitely feel wronged, that two daughters of heaven are marrying the same man, so I never provoked them before, hoping that they could think clearly. I also promised Lord Asha to take good care of Cagalli. Now that Cagalli has no other opinions, I will fulfill this promise. But Xiaoya is different. You can still make a new decision for Xiaoya. Of course, Xiaoya can also decide according to her own wishes."

The head of the Ji Yang family frowned slightly, but at this moment the door was suddenly pushed open, and Xiaoya, who was dressed in uniform, pushed open the door and walked in from outside, followed by Ernesto.

Xiaoya raised her head and said loudly and proudly: "No need to ask, I can give you the answer now, Shi Zhen Xiao Yun."

The head of the Jiyang family hurriedly said, "Xiaoya, why are you here?"

Xiao Yun looked at Brother Sanada who was in a daze again.

Xiaoya said, "I was right outside the door, how could I not hear the noise in the conference room? Shi Zhen Xiao Yun, I just want to ask you one question, do you recognize the original engagement?"

Xiao Yun was also melancholy. He was somewhat confused about the engagement, but he definitely agreed to it, so he nodded: "I agree."

Xiaoya said, "Okay, our Jiyang family also agrees. I, Ya Ot Jiyang, will never go against the marriage contract made by the elders at that time. I will marry you, together with Cagalli, but for your face and for the face of Orb, I can accept a separate wedding ceremony, which can be kept secret, but I will never accept no ceremony and no witnesses."

Seeing Xiao Yun nod in approval, Xiao Ya said again: "In addition to this, I need compensation. I will tell you when I think of it."

Xiao Yun continued to nod: "It's okay if you understand and accept it."

Xiaoya raised the corner of her mouth and snorted, "You just said that our child must have the last name Ji Yang, and the middle name can be yours."

"Okay." Xiao Yun looked at the group of people in the conference room and said, "Okay, let's make arrangements and do what needs to be done. Don't just stand here and watch the fun."

Kagalli looked at Xiao Yun and Xiao Ya. Why didn't anyone ask her what she thought?

"Young people's affairs are really more complicated than those of old men."

The head of the Ji Yang family shook his head and left. It didn't matter whether it was public or not. It was just a matter of announcing it or not. Those who should know would know it. The entire Orb high-level officials and the middle and low-level officials who were close to the core circle could not have been unaware of it.

Everyone in the conference room left, leaving only three people inside. Ernesto was sensible enough to close the door.

Kagali stood up and lowered her head towards Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, thank you..."

Xiaoya glanced at Xiao Yun and said, "Don't thank me. Orb needs your wedding to inspire people. My wedding is irrelevant. Besides, this guy also promised to compensate me. In such a family, shouldn't I be ready to accept my husband as anyone? Besides, the benefits that marrying this guy can bring to the family are enough for the family to ignore all other problems."

"Now even if I want to cancel the engagement and my father wants to cancel the engagement, the rest of the family will never allow us to do so. I have already made preparations for this. I never thought that we would eventually become such a family."

"Alright, alright, you're just being stubborn." Xiao Yun stood up from his chair and said, "Just tell me what compensation you want. I'm going to the underground space of Kaguya Island now. Do you want to come with me?"
