In an army of what did they say previously, 30? 1/5 of the army wiped out by one man, not only is that a numbers loss but also a morale loss. Merle caused about as much damage possible, at least as much as he would have in the finale fight if not more. He knew he was an outsider and always would be an outsider, he said he was doing it for his brother, well now his brother has a weaker less optimistic opponent than he did before Merle went Rambo.

I thought it was great, now Daryle is pissed and ready to rip some heads off.
Also, Merle took out the cream of the crop. I would not suspect the Governor would bring the bottom of the barrel manpower wise. Because this was his move to kill off the "head" of Rick's group, it would have been his best "soldiers". What is left back at woodbury?
