How do I stop a rush as the British in AoE 3

How do I stop a rush as the British in AoE 3 - Side view of unrecognizable young man and woman in trendy outfits and backpack looking away while waiting for train in underground station

So, I created a league for me and my friends to play some AoE during the quarantine.

I used to trash my opponents by simply following a few set strategies (I play as the Brits) To age and create troops as fast as possible.

But as my friends got better, they realised they can crush me by simply all rushing together. I'm no slouch (Colonial by 5-6 min) but I just can't seem to beat off early Hussar or Musketeer rushes.

What should I do? How do I manage my resources to have 15 Villagers, and age in time to create a military?

    How many settlers should I have Age of Empires 3?

    I would advise a bare minimum of 10 settlers per resource, but be careful you don't build too many settlers, as an extra 10000 of everything doesn't help you when your 100 troops get defeated by the 150 enemy troops, and your buildings are destroyed before you can make more.
