The French retreated step by step under the company's army for a month. Many defenders in settlements even chose to surrender because the nobles and generals took the lead in fleeing and directly chose to surrender when the company's army arrived. In just a moment, the French territory shrank by nearly half. All French people who were still French North American colonies were worried. When any battle was fought or both of them were invaded by war, the most severely injured were civilians.

The army of Yanhuang Trading Company was fine. Because Xiao Lin formulated iron military rules and regulations, neither the field division nor the garrison division dared to attack civilians. The company's high treatment also made it unnecessary for them to seize benefits from civilians. On the contrary, because of the civilians' heartfelt respect and love, they fell in love with helping civilians repair houses and doing something within their ability. On the contrary, the French's own army was much more ruthless against civilians on their own.

Most of the colonial troops were composed of those who were rascal and unwilling to work honestly. The army expanded greatly later, without paying attention to the source of troops, and even recruited countless of these people. These gangsters were disbanded by the company's army, and people were unwilling to accept them depending on the situation. If they stayed in those occupied areas, the best situation would be to go to prison for labor reform. They naturally did not want to, and they would form a defeated army to escape after receiving the news. Even many merchants and nobles who had assets but were not strong enough in escort were robbed and killed and silenced.

Not to mention these, the company has now captured a total of fifteen large and small towns, including five urban-level settlements and ten small town-level settlements. Other small villages, or small houses where a few people gather together, were directly destroyed, and civilians were taken back to the town for resettlement. Relying on the three cities, the company formed a solid line of defense, which could completely prevent the French army from sneaking into the territory. Then, stop and attack.

Now, a hundred thousand Frenchman fell into the hands of the company. The number has reached two-thirds of the company's original population. If the population suddenly increases, the company will not be able to dominate well. Moreover, Lin Xin also heard from the news that the last regular French army was solved by them and the British. The Fourth Guard Brigade suffered more than 500 casualties, and the Tank Battalion destroyed two White Tiger-type tanks. This basic light reconnaissance tank powered by batteries is still not strong enough. It was hit by the front-loading gun many times, but it could only fall into the trap.

However, at such a small price, the French lost the combat effectiveness of 30,000 regular troops, which was extremely cost-effective at that time. Without these people, the British could let go. Seeing the company harvesting land and population in the French colonies and a large amount of property, they were jealous. If they didn't grab a good hand, they would really not be able to hold on. They were in a state of war for several consecutive years, and without any investment, their economy and people's livelihood would collapse.

Xiao Lin asked the soldiers to stop attacking, and also to leave a sip of soup for the British. The British were able to move closer to the company because the French were the strong enemy, and they could not survive without joining the company. Now that the French are disabled, the reinforcements from the British are about to arrive, the British will naturally have bad thoughts. Xiao Lin is very familiar with this. The spies he left behind in the British are still providing him with information.

Now, it is not the time to turn against the British. The combined forces of the British and French colonies are no match for the current army. Of course, this is the army and navy. The British Navy, which still maintains most of its combat effectiveness, will still be a big trouble for the company. The Type 54 152mm heavy artillery can also defend against several key cities. After all, the number is only a small amount, and it is not a specialized shore defense gun that can overturn a ship with one shot. The battleships in the hands of the British are not solved by 152mm heavy howitzers.

If the battleships set off and go to a place where there is no heavy artillery cluster defense, then Xiaolin has no way to attack the city settlements. Ijik's little fleet power is OK to defend against pirates, and it is impossible to deal with a huge fleet. Only when Xiaolin gets at least ten missile boats from modern times can he turn against the British, and he also has to get back ten destroyer-level or even above fleets to fight against the British's local fleet.

At the same time, the French were not completely defeated. Give some benefits. Before the company took the initiative to turn against each other, the British could only continue to help the company attract the attention of the French. People bully the weak and fear the strong. The company's army is elite. Militia formed. Even if they hit the company's militia, they have no chance of winning. Although the British's private army is quite powerful, in comparison, the militia troops still have the possibility of fighting. Therefore, if the French recover, they will definitely attack these British people first.

The think tanks of the three counts of Lin Man also thought of this possibility, but even if they didn't take action, could the French let them go? Judging from the French's current appearance, it would be impossible to fight the company. When the company digests its current strength and forms a new force, they have just stabilized the situation of the colony. Even if they want to send troops, the company may have enough strength to fight on both sides. It is possible that they will turn the tables. If they don't have this, they will have to wait to die.

North America is not the most dazzling one among the British colonies. It is impossible to risk the turmoil of other colonies to force a colony that cannot bring huge benefits to the local area. The news spread slowly, and now the Indians were completely excited. The reason why they were unwilling to surrender to the Yanhuang Trading Company was because the power displayed by the company was not enough to bring them hope.

They couldn't see how powerful the company was compared to them, and they could not fight against the whites, so it would be better for them to do it themselves. As long as they were not unable to survive at all, they wanted to rely on themselves. However, now the company invaded the French territory, strangled tens of thousands of "strong" French teams, and defeated the French. Even the British have now become their younger brothers, and they must rely on the power of the company to defeat the French.

This was the first time in the history of the Indians. When the news spread, even the most stubborn Indian tribes began to find ways to join the company's camp. In just one month, five Indian tribes, a total of more than 4,000 people joined the company. The number was very small, but this was an excellent sign. This means that the company has truly gained the hearts of the Indians. No matter how the company used force, someone would take the initiative to surrender.

The Indians were not useless. They were all very excellent candidates for mountain warriors. Since they were fifteen or sixteen years old, they had enough strong bodies, and they would hunt in various forests, inherit the experience of the previous generation, making them good soldiers. With a little training, they could reach the level of the current militia division in the company. Moreover, many people also have the experience of taming beasts, especially wolves and wild dogs. After being well-dressed, they are the best helpers for people.

This trend will become bigger and bigger as time goes by. According to spies, many large Indian tribes and the idea of ​​investing in companies began to gain the upper hand. People long for a powerful leader who can give them a warm life and continue to defeat the white invaders. Xiao Lin has proved with his performance that he is enough to shoulder the burden of revival of the Indians. Rumors of a messenger of gods and great leaders have begun to spread on the North American continent.

When Xiao Lin saw this sign, he would naturally add fuel to the fire. The battle stopped temporarily, and the elite spies and agents trained by Alexey and others were summoned back except for necessary ones, and then spread such words everywhere. Not to mention the Indians, even the white people heard this rumor. They even began to spread to the territory of the Spaniards and the Portuguese. I'm afraid that it won't take long, even the South American continent will have such rumor.

The Spanish and Portuguese naturally began to pay attention to the Yanhuang trading company. Now, the Spanish and Portuguese, due to the rise of the British and French, their colonies shrank significantly. All colonies that could generate huge benefits were also lost one by one. The only remaining colonies in North and South America were already the place where they maintained their interests. If the company rose, it would naturally affect them. The company's external sign was the combined forces of the Indians.

The Spanish and Portuguese, as the first forces to start to explore North American colonies, did not kill the Indians. The first Indians died in their hands, and the Inca Empire, which the Indians were proud of, was also destroyed in the hands of the Spanish. They speculated that as long as the company's power expanded here, they would never let them go. Therefore, the Spanish and Portuguese actually began to prepare to intervene in this war. The first method was to support behind the scenes and strengthen the French.
