They would feel his absence even more if something like that happened, especially if they were alerted to it and came to find out what would have resulted from it all.
If they came to find out about two attacks that were coordinated together, then that would be something that they would need to inform Gerald about and to ask his opinion on what kind of response would be needed to be taken.
Any further problems would only make them need to keep trying to find him, as things would fall apart more.
How they approached it would be important to whatever plans Cerberus would have.
Ash could do her best to stall for more time and to reduce unwanted casualties, but she was not the person who was in power and could affect the result.
All that she could do was to give everything over once she was done and hope that her suggestions would be taken into account.
Cerberus would be the one to use what she brought to them.
They were the ones with the real power to affect the end outcome.
