How can you simply bomb the cave and bury the people there alive?? even the united states with far superior technology and numbers couldnt erradicate the vietcong. Tet offensive was a bad planned move which exposed them and made them lose many troops but if they keep it stealthy, they were winning.

Besides, US had helicopters,better tanks,etc not british empire-level of technology. and fighter places, missiles,etc etc. ok? so just dont EVEN compare one with another. FN would win in guerilla warfare, their ships would be useless into mainland [landlocked places remember?] no planes,misssiles,high-techy stuff.

Maybe the FN could battle the british but the greatest problem the FN would have is: how to field THAT many soldiers at once? because initially the FN would surely want to send over 5-10 million troops, but that would be a logistical nightmare... I would advice a cavalry-only quick strikes aiming at razing down villages and cities, genghis-khan style archer cavalry kills and the mongols proved that. while using yu yan archers to pick out artillery [no people to man it = uselless. making the FN able to sack it and use it for themselves]. aim at destroying their factories [to halt musket/cannnon production] and infrastructure [capturing agriculture hotspots,etc]. possibly the FN would need to shift its war strategies. it would need to change from an chinese-styled army [huge armies, varied strategy,etc] to total war genghis/attila tactics. just cavalry with bows/benders, etc etc

Maybe the EK is better at this than the FN, seeing they got inspiration from nomadic cultures more than the FN heh.

Well, one way or another, I'm more ito pre-industrial warfare you know? warring states and qin stuff xD my name proves it.
