In fact, Kedoba's previous glimpse into the Alliance's situation had been an eye-opener, leading to a mentality shift from believing the Alliance had already done its best to thinking that the Alliance hadn't tried hard at all. These thoughts were not entirely accurate.
At the very least, they were one-sided.

The Alliance Supreme Command called this the "Temir Rotational Battle," which was essentially substituting training with actual combat, directly exposing soldiers to the battlefield atmosphere and engaging them in personal combat.
