Actually it is more of a taunt, I think he was not expecting her to attack and burn down a Mountain. The Mountain is a source of faith for all the Japanese people, not many will even consider attacking it nevertheless even to burn it all down. Another thing is considering that one, all his forces are in the Mountain, lighting it up with fire will kill them all slowly but surely.
