บท 112: Momma's Ti...

But for all the surprising accuracy and flying skills of the Rushbloods, they were, after all, medium mechas ambushed by heavy mechas.

The Longs had the element of surprise, and the advantage of preparing against them.

Plus, although not as good as the Rushbloods, all of the Long family pilots were still pretty good shots themselves, and they quickly established a steady rhythm.

"Focus fire and defensive postures." Victor Long commanded as he expertly shot down a Rushblood mecha.

His group immediately responded by hunkering down and aiming at pre-selected targets in clusters of three.

It was a devastating strategy for which the Rushbloods had no answer.

Within seconds, ten more Rushblood mechas fell while taking out only three Long mechas.

The battle was as good as over.

One of the critical traits that a good commander must have is knowing when to retreat and salvage as much as possible out of a loss.
