He literally said in one of the previous episodes that all they needed was time, and he sent out several waves of attack to slow them down. A successful ambush on their ship, a horde of unkillable stormtroopers, a recently-upgraded Morgan...All of those pieces were played in the service of slowing down the advancing group of Jedi. It was pretty plainly stated when he spoke to Morgan. All he needed was time.

He made smart decisions at every turn, and the only reason the outcome was even close was because of the competency of the heroes overcoming every challenge, even Huyang with his clutch ship repair, which is a refreshing thing.
