In this true and false news, the British slowly shifted their hatred to the top of Palawan's head, thinking that if there was no Palawan independence, there would be no Scots to make a fuss at all, after all, the example is great, such as the Soviet Union back then.

So the British thought about it, and they noticed that the Philippine government representative, who was seeking help in the United States, was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night.

After hearing the identity of the person on the other side of the phone, the Philippine representative, who was still very angry, immediately jumped out of the clouds with joy, and was so excited that he could hardly say anything, and immediately reported the information to the Philippine government after hanging up the phone.

The Philippine government is actively looking for allies all over the world, the United States, Vietnam and other countries, but they did not go to the United Kingdom, which is still related to some things in history, the relationship between Britain and the Philippines in history is not very good, but now to be able to get help from the British, it is undoubtedly a relief for the Filipinos.

The Philippine government's rare move became very fast, and the next day the Philippine government secretly sent a delegation to Britain, and it was the British foreign secretary who called the Filipinos last night.

The British, who are good at engaging in some intrigues behind their backs, almost decided to deal with Palawan, and a series of plans have appeared in their minds, the first of which is to fund the Philippines and let them recover Palawan, as long as Palawan is quickly recovered by the Philippines, there is no idol role, and it can also let the Scots see that the arms can't twist the thighs.

The British also made a rare move quickly, and the original old office system suddenly seemed to drip lubricant, and the plan was prepared almost on the same day, and a basket of plans was set for the Philippine government, which was submitted to Congress the next day, and the Congress almost unanimously approved the review, and immediately began to implement it.

Aid to the Philippines, certainly can not be free aid, the British are not philanthropists, all aid is paid aid, and the price is still very high, just in recent years the British economy has also regressed a little, pit the Filipinos is also a good decision for them.

The Philippine delegation arrived in London, England the next afternoon, and began negotiations that night, and the negotiations went smoothly from the beginning, and the Philippine government is now going crazy if it wants to recover Palawan, and tens of billions of taxes can not just be gone, Palawan's annual tourism tax, fishing tax, and various taxes are the big taxpayers in the Philippines, to put it mildly, Palawan is a small island that feeds one-third of the Filipinos.

Finally, on July 27, the two sides formally signed an agreement in London, and the speed made everyone in the world feel a little astonished.

The British gave the Philippines a repaid loan of three billion pounds, which the Philippine government used to buy British weapons and equipment to deal with Palawan.

This loan is not the almost interest-free loan that Lin Qing talked about with the Dutch government, but it has interest, and the interest is not low, not much different from usury, and the specific amount of the Philippine government has not been announced, but with the urine of the British, they are merciful if they do not kill the Philippines.

Although the Filipinos were a little dissatisfied with such a high interest rate, they gritted their teeth and agreed to the British government's conditions when they thought of the benefits after recovering Palawan.

The British economic expert group has seen the economic downturn in recent years, and inflation is rising year by year, so they do not repay it in cash, but repay it with equivalent mineral resources and various crops.

Of course, the prices of mineral resources and crops are all purchased at the lowest price in the world, which is equivalent to the British buying 4 billion or 5 billion dollars of materials with 3 billion dollars.

Of course, this is only one of the clauses, and the rest of the clauses clearly stipulate the use of the money, which can only be used to buy arms for the British, and cannot be used for anything else.

In order to prevent the Filipinos from taking out loans for other purposes, the loans were not deposited in the Philippine banks, but in the Royal Bank of England, and could only be used every time they bought arms.

Generally speaking, no country will agree to such a clause, and even if most countries agree to this kind of loan, they will not agree to put money in the bank of another country, and the British are completely bullying the Philippines by doing so.

Although the Philippine government is very reluctant to agree to these terms, the situation now forces them to agree.

The Yankees have not made any moves for a long time, and the Free Democratic Republic of Palawan has already won the recognition of more than a dozen countries around Southeast Asia, and if the Philippine government does not take action, it will be difficult for them to take back Palawan.

After all, the Philippine government is not very short of money, after all, the Philippine government is not like the European government, often in debt, the Philippines has a surplus of tax revenue every year, and the Philippines does not invest a lot in social welfare, but why not take out a loan?

This time, the Philippine government has also learned from the experience, abandoning its traditional arms purchase policy in the past, and forcibly refusing to look at those bargains of good quality and low price, and locking its eyes on those weapons photos that they had never dared to think about before.

F-16 fighter jets, 10 years of goods, 32 million US dollars, 50 million US dollars for five years, brand new goods are not.

The Filipino representative swallowed his saliva and looked at the items on the price list, constantly hypnotizing himself in his heart, bought, bought, bought!

In the end, the Philippines decided to purchase 24 10-year-old F-16s to form two fighter squadrons, and 12 F-16s converted into bombers, also 10-year-old.

The F-16 fighter has been continuously improved since the beginning of its service, and there will be changes almost every five years, and the so-called five-year-old F-16 that the British are ready to sell to the Philippines is actually produced after 1995, and it is one of the more advanced fighters in the world.

In addition to this deal, the Philippines has also learned from the hard way and purchased a batch of vehicle-mounted radars, anti-aircraft missiles, and other various short- and medium-range weapons.

Among them, when buying tanks, the Philippine government also changed its previous thinking and purchased some main battle tanks.

Before Lin Qing established the Palawan Free Army, there was not a single main battle tank in the entire Philippines, and then some light Douding tanks, the Philippine government, which suffered a big loss in the exchange of fire with the Palawan Free Army, made another blood this time, and purchased a batch of British retired Challenger 1 main station tanks, and some older main battle tanks to deal with the T72 of the Palawan Free Army

The purchase of weapons went smoothly, and it was rare for the British not to delay this time, placing orders here and loading them there.

Some of the planes were directly pulled over by the active planes, and after a brief inspection, after the two sides confirmed that there were no problems, there were special pilots to fly the fighters to the Philippines.

Lin Qing went to the UK this time for the purpose of the fighter jets purchased by the Philippines, but Lin Qing did not know that these fighters were not loaded on the ship, but flew directly to the Philippine mainland.

Tanks were loaded on August 1 and departed from Liverpool, and five ocean-going freighters loaded up the three billion pounds purchased with a Philippine loan, and then left the port in a big way.

In fact, according to the price of modern warfare weapons, three billion pounds can't buy much, and an ocean-going freighter is enough, but although the Philippines gritted its teeth and spent money to buy a batch of advanced fighters, some of the remaining things purchased are still dogs that can't be changed, and some obsolete goods are bought.

The Filipinos were very satisfied, and this time although they bought a bunch of very expensive fighters, their "dear" British friends half-sold and gave them a bunch of second-hand items that they didn't need, and they all looked pretty good, and the British gave them a lot of rifles, and they all looked new.

The British are very happy this time, and this time they finally sell all the scrap items piled up in the warehouse in one go, and they don't have to worry about these obsolete goods in the warehouse every year.

In the future, you can save a lot of military spending every year, and it takes a little money to maintain these things every year, and these scraps, the British have been looking for sellers all over the world before, the Middle East has been promoted, and Africa has also been promoted, and no one wants to sell the scrap at the price of selling them, but this time they were actually sold at cost price, and sure enough, the Filipinos have a lot of stupid money.

On August 3, five ocean-going freighters arrived in Swansea, and they did not leave the UK for two days, not because the speed of these freighters was slow, but because these freighters had to load cargo every time they passed through one place, which delayed time, but this is also the fastest way, otherwise it will take more time to wait until all the cargo is gathered at the dock and then loaded on the ship.

The British took joint action with several departments this time, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs negotiated the order and immediately sent it to the Ministry of Defense, and the people who went to the Ministry of Defense immediately looked for inventory according to the order, and then notified the troops to pull out the inventory and send it to the nearest port, and then waited for the cargo ship to arrive at the port and immediately loaded the ship.

In order to prevent any problems on the way, the Filipinos repeatedly ordered no one to open the container while at sea, and at the same time asked the British government to inform the crew, and the British also warned the crew not to approach the container after signing a letter of responsibility with the Filipino that the cargo was not responsible for leaving the port.

In fact, according to international practice, it is generally after the goods arrive at the target port that the seller will be irresponsible, obviously the British are afraid that the goods will have any problems at sea, and once again pit the Filipinos.

The Filipino idea is very simple, since the goods are miscellaneous, then it is forbidden for everyone to approach the container area of the ship, so that as long as the goods are loaded into the ship and unloaded, there is no human contact, there will be no problems, for which the Philippine government has specially sent a group of trusted agents of the intelligence agency to upload the container area responsible for supervising the production of containers, so that no one can approach.

Swansea is the last stop of the freighter, here, the freighter will be loaded with the last twelve F16 accessories, after all, the F16 cash fighter, not just buy a plane on it, he also has a complete set of supporting implementation, maintenance facilities, etc., the Philippine government is rare to breathe a round, but also a lot of blood.

After leaving Swansea, the ship will rest for half a day in Port Said in front of the Suez Canal, after which it will go straight to Manila without any stops.
