Having shed its loss-making operations, the company can finally move forward unencumbered.
Tips
usage
Originally military (a soldier going into battle without heavy armor), now almost always figurative, shedding psychological baggage, debt, bureaucratic weight, or uncompetitive business lines before taking on a challenge.
memory
Parse as 轻装 (light gear) + 上阵 (enter the battlefield). If you travel 'light' and 'enter the fray,' you move faster, a clean mental image for both the literal and figurative sense.
