Today only, at this very moment.
Although it's unnecessary to mention the previous defeats, they were actually pivotal. Without defeating those over a hundred Count Mechas, Ji Xinghe would now be facing at least three hundred of them.
The difficulty could be described as exponentially greater.
Based on the thoughts presented by Aida Kang, or rather his recognition of Ji Xinghe's combat power limit, it's more likely that two hundred Count Mechas would be used to pursue Ji Xinghe while the additional one hundred or so would besiege the Independent Group.
Even if there were only just over a hundred Count Mechas, or even three hundred, the assembled Independent Group wouldn't be afraid and would definitely achieve ultimate victory.
Over two hundred Mountain-cutting Mechas are indeed formidable, and so are the Federation's Mecha warriors who pilot them.
