Seeing Alex's piercing gaze, Barack felt as if the man before him was testing him by asking him such a question in this situation.
Seeing his hesitation, Alex spoke, "I am new here and your commander had already abandoned you all and was sneaking out but I caught him."
"So as the next most senior official, I want your opinion, "Alex spoke while slashing the spread along with the man who sneaked an attack on him.
Barack was flustered for a moment and squeezing out his courage, he said"Sir Alex, as you can see, the situation seems to be quite bad on our side. If we think about the lives of the remaining soldiers here, I think it is best to retreat to the third defence line and try to stop their raid from there as you might already know once the third line falls, four cannot even offer a resistance."
