It's a pretty ridiculous scene either way but wasn't the point that he lost on purpose? Okonogi was constantly annoyed that most of his men aren't actual soldiers, he wanted to "lose" a direct fight for some kind of closure.
Of course, it was still probably just character wank because Ryukishi forgot to give Mion some kind of arc at the end of Higurashi and tried to throw one together in the last chapter.

Should've happened in Minagoroshi where literally every other member of the gang faced their issues, but for some reason Mion never stood up to her family in the perfect situation to do so.
