That He might cut down a section of the disbelievers or suppress them so that they turn back disappointed.  

And that He might cut off (li-yaqta‘, is semantically connected to the clause containing nasarakum, ‘He gave you victory’), that is to say, that He might destroy, a party of the disbelievers, by slaying them or making them fall captive, or suppress them, humiliate them through defeat, so that they fall back, return, frustrated, not having secured what they desired.
القرآن:٣:١٢٧ –

لِيَقْطَعَ طَرَفًا مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَوْ يَكْبِتَهُمْ فَيَنْقَلِبُوا خَائِبِينَ  

{ليقطع} متعلق ينصركم أي ليُهلك {طرفا من الذين كفروا} بالقتل والأسر {أو يكبتهم} يذلهم بالهزيمة {فينقلبوا} يرجعوا {خائبين} لم ينالوا ما راموه.
