Anno died, and according to analysis, it should have died from the explosion.

After the battle, a Combine soldier found Arno's head while cleaning the battlefield, only a head, and his body could not be found.

It is estimated that the body has been blown apart, and on this head, Ah Nuo's expression seems to be a little sad, I don't know if it is because he can't personally avenge his father's sadness.

The old man of the tribe stared at the head of Ano for a long time, and then ordered that together with this head, the captured Juan should be brought alive to the tomb of Ano's father, and the people of their tribe would behead Juan with their own hands, and pay tribute to his father and the spirits of Arno and the six hundred warriors in heaven.

In this battle, the combined army under the command of the old man of the tribe won the victory after Ano destroyed the allied army's firearms and detonated the gunpowder, and they roared out of the city.

The Confederates were in a panic and crushed the Confederates in one fell swoop, killing most of the Confederate soldiers and capturing their commander Juan, leaving less than 5,000 Confederates fleeing in disarray.

Although the old man of the tribe was ecstatic, he did not immediately order the pursuit, because he knew that the alliance still had the remaining strength, and the strength in his hands was less than 20,000, and this battle not only killed more than 30,000 alliance troops, but he himself also lost more than 10,000 soldiers.

He didn't plan to go on the offensive until reinforcements arrived, so he repaired in Manila, where the Confederates had brought enough supplies to eat.

For the Coalition Army, the greatest loss was that of Ano and his 600 warriors, and the death of Ano filled the whole army with an atmosphere of sorrow, so that no one was in the mood to celebrate when it should have been.

At this moment, the only one who is really happy is the old man of the tribe.

Not only did he defeat decades of enemies, fulfill decades of long-cherished wishes, and eradicate the greatest internal threat, but he also had an extra usable momentum - the momentum of a mourning soldier.

He has not read the art of war, but his years of combat experience have taught him that whenever an army feels sad, the combat effectiveness of this army will often be raised to a higher level, and he has relied on the momentum of the mourning soldiers countless times to escape from death, and he is very skilled in using this momentum.

So, when he was replenished with reinforcements, and when he encountered the 50,000 Confederates north of Manila who had elected a new leader to retaliate, he succeeded in using the momentum of the mourning army to defeat the second wave of the Confederate army twenty miles north of Manila.

The Confederates lost more than 10,000 troops and retreated again.

After two victories, the Combine Army has taken advantage of the psychological advantage, and has taken advantage of the momentum, and the old man of the tribe skillfully uses the experience accumulated in his forty years of battles to continuously lead the Combine Army to victory, gaining more than forty years of prestige.

It has already been proposed that after the victory, the old man will become the new king and establish a new state, which he deserves.

He was very happy.

However, the Allies knew that in the event of defeat, they would be met with a merciless bloodbath.

These guys, who have been suppressed for many years, will never let go of even a child, and it is estimated that only young women will stay to reproduce, and men, even young children, will be killed.

For the sake of themselves, for the sake of their children, and for their wives not to be taken captive and live a miserable life, they decided to fight to the death.

Under the speech of the new leader, the allied army also had the momentum of mourning, and in the third major war, both sides invested more than 70,000 troops.

After a bloody battle, it was the Allies who had the upper hand, and the Coalition Army was defeated for the first time since it was dispatched, and its momentum was thwarted, and it retreated for ten miles in a row before stopping to stabilize its position.

The strong and weak are reversed, the positions are reversed, and the combined army at this moment is no longer a mourning soldier, but a strong soldier who is domineering, but the allied army has become a new mourning soldier.

The old man of the tribe was obviously unaware of such a subtle change, and he continued to send out powerful warriors and allies to fight bloody battles, but with little success.

After entering November, the weather was a little cooler, and the two sides of the battle entered a period of confrontation, and neither side sent out absolute strength again, but continued to use small forces and small battles to kill each other's living forces, trying to accumulate small victories into big victories.

The forces of the two sides tended to be balanced, the fighting tended to be confrontational, and the two sides fought bloody battles every day, but it was very difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.

This situation made the old man of the tribe and the new leader of the alliance very worried, but it made Xiao Ruxun very happy.

Once the war enters the confrontation period, it will not be easy to end, the population of the entire Philippines will probably not exceed 3 million, and the indigenous population of Luzon is estimated to be at most one million.

Their number of young men will also be very limited, according to the mobilization ability of the primitive tribes, they can probably dispatch a total of more than 100,000 young men to fight, and the current battlefield youth is basically all the young men in their hands.

If these people lose too much, the indigenous people of the Philippines will not be able to resist any foreign colonial forces.

"Xiao Hou, they've been fighting for more than half a month, it's time for us to go out, right? If you don't go out again, you won't be able to go back to the New Year, and the soldiers are looking forward to the New Year! ”

Chen Longzheng was standing behind Xiao Ruxun and suggested.

"Don't worry, wait another day or two, they still have seventy or eighty thousand manpower, and after the next big battle, their number of young and strong people will be reduced to about 30,000, we can dispatch, take it by surprise, break the enemy with firearms, three thousand against the tired 30,000 division, there is still one battle, we only have one chance, don't capsize in the gutter."

Xiao Ruxun's face was relaxed, and he drank tea very happily.

Chen Longzheng smiled bitterly, Xiao Ruxun's ability to kill people with a knife is becoming more and more proficient, and the blood that hundreds of thousands of natives played with him is almost running out, and he didn't realize that this is a game.

After thinking about it, Chen Longzheng decided not to talk about this, but to talk about what happened after that.

"After the matter here is dealt with, who does Xiao Hou plan to appoint to be the Luzon State Minister?"

Xiao Ruxun paused for a moment and said, "Yuan Yan." ”

Chen Longzheng frowned.

"Yuan Yan is indeed experienced, capable, and able to lead troops to fight, but is he too young, in the face of such a big mess in Luzon, his subordinates are worried that he will not be able to deal with the problems here."

Xiao Ruxun was also a little helpless.

"But Ben Hou can't help it! There are not many talents under Ben Hou's hands, most of them are generals who can only fight, there are few literati, Yuan Huanggong needs to stay by my side to give me advice, I can't do without him.

What about you! I have to run around all over the world, and I will go to the continent of Europa next year, and it will be gone for more than a year, and those newly recruited children of Nanyang maritime merchants, I don't trust it very much, so I look at it, there is only Yuan Yan's kid. ”
