Chapter 423 Dismembering the Philippines

Philippines, Jolo Island, suburb of Luuk Town.

In a shabby restaurant, three Filipinos in gray shirts are sitting around a table.

"What time is it?" The darker-skinned man among the three glanced at the door and asked his partner in a low voice.

The person being asked glanced at his watch and replied, "It's already 13 o'clock."

The fat man who hadn't spoken took a deep breath, and tugged at his collar anxiously.

"Santos, do you think that man will come?"

"I don't know, I can't trust Chinese people." Santos said lightly.

The fat man rolled his thick lips, didn't comment on Santos' words, and just leaned back on the chair. To say why they appeared here, we have to start with the phone call they received last night.

The people sitting here are all the top of the Moro National Liberation Front. Although most of the "Mojie" armed forces are deployed in Mindanao, no one would have thought that their base camp is located on Jolo Island next to Mindanao.

At that time, Santos was about to go to bed when a strange call came to his mobile phone. After some hesitation, he cautiously pressed the connect button. However, as soon as the call was connected, the person on the other end did not introduce himself, and directly stated that he would provide weapons to the MLO.

Judging by the English accent, the other party should be from Hua.

Santos is still very cautious about the olive branch thrown by the Chinese. In the Philippines, overseas Chinese control more than 60% of the Philippine economy with more than 1% of the population. No one will have a good impression of a rich neighbor.

However, Santos couldn't refuse the conditions proposed by that person.

It is enough to arm an infantry division!

What shocked him even more was that the man said that the batch of arms had already arrived in the Philippines!

With this batch of arms, Mo Jie's current equipment shortage problem will be easily solved, and he can immediately pull up an armed force of more than 7,000 people from his supporters, and expand the combat effectiveness of the guerrillas by more than several times!

The only thing that made Santos afraid was that the person who put forward this condition was a Chinese, and this Chinese knew his situation well, and even casually stated the house number of the hotel where he was staying at the moment.

certainly.

To prevent his phone from being tapped. Jiang Chen didn't specify which city and which hotel he stayed in.

A drop of cold sweat slid across his forehead, and after some thought, Santos finally agreed to his proposal of meeting. The police didn't come to the door, at least it showed that the other party was not hostile.

Hence the present scene.

After the gunmen were secretly deployed near the hotel. Santos took his two confidants and sat in the restaurant. Sitting down in the private room arranged by that person, he ordered two dishes at random. Then they waited patiently for that person to arrive.

But now, the appointed time has come.

"He tricked us." The fat man spread his hands.

Santos closed his eyes and thought for a moment, "Wait a little longer. If no one comes in 10 minutes, we will withdraw."

However, his voice just fell. There was a knock on the door.

The man with the watch subconsciously touched his waist, seeing Santos shaking his head, he put his hand back on the table again.

"Please come in." Santos said to the door.

The door opened. However, it was a 10-year-old boy who came in.

Seeing that the people in the room were looking at him in surprise, the boy shyly handed out the tablet in his hand.

"Someone asked me to bring this thing here."

"Where is that man?" Santos stared into the boy's eyes.

There was a timid expression on his face. The boy shook his head vigorously, his hands holding the tablet were trembling, and he spoke quickly. "I don't know, he's wearing a mask. He gave me $10 to send this to this box."

As he said that, the boy carefully placed the tablet on the sofa next to the door, then turned around and fled out the door.

Ignoring the boy, Santos winked at the fat man and motioned him to bring the tablet over.

Just then, the phone rang again.

Seeing the caller, Santos pressed the connect button, lowered his voice and said fiercely, "What tricks are you playing?"

Without talking nonsense with him, Jiang Chen spoke straight to the point.

"There is a map on the tablet, and the power-on password is 1234. You can try to open it."

Frowning slightly, Santos still chose to follow suit and opened the map on the tablet according to Jiang Chen's instructions.

"Then what?"

"A total of 8 arsenals are buried in every corner of the southern part of the Philippines." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Where is the arsenal?" Santos asked hastily.

"Have you noticed the box next to the map? Every time you complete a condition, I will provide you with a password. Every time you enter the password, you can unlock a 'treasure' address."

What does he. Mom mean?

Santos was stunned, cursed secretly in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "What's the point of your doing this?"

"I provide you with arms and banknotes to fund your cause, not for you to use them as bargaining chips to negotiate with the government forces, but to see you split Mindanao from the territory of the Philippines, do you know what I mean? ?” Jiang Chen said lightly.

His eyes flickered slightly, and Santos tried to persuade.

"I promise I will lead the Moro people to independence, you can trust me!"

"Haha, the most worthless thing in this world is trust, especially for two strangers." Jiang Chen laughed.

"Then why should we trust you?" Santos said in a gloomy tone.

"So I decided to pay first." Jiang Chen shrugged, "The first password: ad2g3&% # ...... After entering the password to unlock the arsenal address, it will also unlock a mission briefing. Completed It, after I confirm it from the news, I will naturally tell you the next password."

"That's all I have to say, so good luck."

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that the man was about to hang up, Santos, who had just entered the password, hurriedly wanted to stop him, but a busy tone of "beep" came from the other end of the phone.

Stuffing the phone back into his trouser pocket, Santos looked gloomy at the tablet on the table.

"Boss, what should we do?" Fatty asked in a low voice.

Silently looking at the red dot on the outskirts of Luuk Town on the map, Santos was silent for a long while before speaking.

"Calder, take someone to this location on the map."

"Yes." The man with the watch stood up, firmly remembered the location of the hidden ammunition on the map, and then walked out the door.

Santos closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

To be honest, this feeling of being at the mercy of others made him uncomfortable. But such a generous offer, he simply couldn't refuse. If Jiang Chen provided him with all the weapons at once, he might choose a more secure approach. For example, gather an armed force first, prepare for about a year, and then launch an offensive.

Soon, the phone in his pocket rang.

When the phone was connected, Calder's nervous voice came from the opposite side.

"Boss, I found it."

"How many things are there?" Santos asked in a deep voice.

Calder's throat was a little dry, "There are body armor, even night vision goggles, C4 explosives. There are also 2,000 rifles found, and 40 boxes of rifle ammunition. 10 RPG-7, 100 rounds of ammunition... ...and 5 mortars, 100 shells. And $5 million in cash."

arms! 5 million dollars!

Santos sat up abruptly, his fingers shaking while holding the phone, "Immediately arrange for people to transport the general arsenal to our gathering point."

"Understood!" Calder nodded.

Calder is his confidant, and he can trust his loyalty.

After hanging up the phone, ignoring the questioning look on the fat man's face, Santos glanced at the task briefing on the tablet.

[Target: Pagadian City. Destroy the city police station, power station, and government buildings, and kill more than 80 government soldiers. 】

Licking his dry lips, Santos felt his heart beating faster.

If he complied, it would be the largest attack planned by the MLO in the past 13 years. And with the support of this batch of arms and funds, Mojie will be fully capable of launching this attack!

But in this way, there is no way out.

A flash of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but soon that hesitation was replaced by madness, and Santos silently made a decision in his heart.
