So he had a very reasonable argument to rebut Su Chuanyun: "How much courage did the old man give you? Do you know what a Prince Mecha means? Plus, with their numbers greater than ours, depending on your teammates to create opportunities for you to finish the job isn't possible."
"I rely on my teammates to create opportunities?" Su Chuanyun sneered twice: "You mean all the dirty and hard work falls to the teammates, huh."
"You said it yourself."
"Then agree to it, let's compete."
Su Chuanyun's insistence was understandable to others, as it was laying the groundwork for Ji Xinghe's orders to be executed, motivating them.
Before Ji Xinghe gave the order to retreat, they had to keep charging, but having already received the news of thirty Prince Mechas coming to reinforce, and being in very poor condition, there was inevitably some issue with morale.
In the absence of a subordinate relationship, disobeying Ji Xinghe's orders to retreat was also excusable.
