The Array-Breaking Independent Troop led by Han Li, using a tactic of fighting while retreating and pursuing, had been dragging ten Imperial Duke Mechas and numerous Imperial Count Mechas in battle for quite some time.
Before any change occurred, neither side wanted to allow the other to retreat in peace.
But the advantage was clearly on the Imperial side, because their Mecha warriors had greater physical strength.
The tactic of fighting while retreating and pursuing is not less draining on stamina and energy than an intense frontal group battle.
A single misstep could turn this harassing strategy into a direct group confrontation. In comparison to the Imperial Mech Corps, the Array-Breaking Independent Group was keenly aware that they were significantly weaker than the opposition, in every aspect.
