In order to signal Lan, someone had to carry the equipment to the spot where the nuke will land and send the signal for "nuke here". Her master was the one who undertook the task. That's why they needed a general to buy time as well. They literally had to set it off in the middle of the enemy forces and ground zero of the nuke.
Since said ground zero was on the Fanghu, that means the main battleground was on the ship itself by that point. If the General & High Elder of the Fanghu, who would've been at least the top two of the Fanghu's top fighting tier depending on if they're the same person or not, wasn't out there at that point, then they'd be shitty leaders.
