Yes, them coming in numbers like this is already anomalous, and is likely another sign of the coming invasion.

That being said, you're right that we have certainly been warned repeatedly about the dangers of overextending here, so if yrs was going to punish us for something it would be well justified to punish that.
That is saying that if they run we should not chase after them not that we should wait and give them time.

On the other hand, we've also been warned of the trouble to the south and have reason to expect that there will be pressure affecting the other villages, including the ones we were assigned to protect. Take too long here and we risk trouble affecting those other villages.

If we go slow and steady, that gives more time for Shen Hu to get more civilians into the shelters, and increases the survivability of our troops.

Push too fast and hard, and we risk getting caught in a fight where we can't pull back enough to continue running interference and control across the entire battlefield.
 
[] Drive them before you

I dunno how to do write ins but im for drive them before you cautiously. Keep an escape avenue handy. Cus i agree that if they group up they can screw us over. We have tons of batteries in the first and second realms amd two other villages to help after this that could go down in flames if we take too long. Imo we should scatter them without a wholesale slaughter then head to the mext village to even the odds there too

If they gang up on us then our allies can mop up the ones on the ground.

I think it's not a regular raid at all, it's probing attack - to see what they should expect when pressing. It's a valid tactic in case of future invasion. That said the mystery guy is more likely here to cover retreat (we know that he has some stealth arts) then to actually fight someone.
 
I think Aggressive is the right move here. In war, failing to be decisive when you have the chance is very bad. Furthermore, a rushed opponent may make mistakes, which is great for us. And, as others have mentioned, LQ is very well stated for survival and escape if the water starts to get over her head.
 
[X] Drive them before you

To those worrying about ensuring that we can escape, we always have an avenue handy either via teleporting with SCS or if Qi- the Soaring Charm, the only way we won't is through being one-shot which we've got piles of arts that make that sort of thing almost impossible to do for on-level fighters so that's not likely an issue unless the Mystery Fighter has a few heavy hitting tricks up their sleeve.

Confusion to the enemy. I wonder if that is a nickname we might get?
Adding them to the ones that Six gave us a while ago, we've got so many now.
"Of course you're worth it. Most talented musician in the South, luminous fairy of the winter moon, black left hand of the Cai, Best Big Sis! The name of Ling Qi rings from the mountaintops!"
 
I think we'd have a hard time finding a more advantageous situation for Ling Qi. If we don't attack now, we'll never do.
