The officer opposite spoke with a voice that was already trembling, seemingly afraid that Tang Ye would think him incompetent. However, the situation seemed to have taken an unexpected turn, as Tang Ye did not show any sign of emotional upheaval; it was as if he had anticipated this outcome all along.

"I don't want to hear why you can't hold them off. If you can't hold them, then you can't. Since you can't fight them, notify your troops to retreat completely. Also, inform the other legions to pull their troops back as well. Let those people in," Tang Ye said calmly.
However, when the other party heard what he said, he was momentarily stunned.
"Why? We can't give up. Rest assured, even if I die in battle, I won't let them through. We can't just give up!"
"You misunderstood my meaning. There's no need to fight to the death. Retreat, pull all forces back! The situation has changed; holding out now would only mean meaningless sacrifices."
"Ah, really?"
