To the adjutant, Tawa's order seemed overly cautious. The adjutant felt that even if the enemy caught up, they were fully capable of annihilating them, considering that despite Rocky's continuous interference and the consequent loss of quite a few warships, they still had over three hundred warships at their disposal.

For instance, in this matter, the adjutant's thoughts were too one-sided.

At that time, Rocky faced an enemy force two to three times larger than his own. And what was the outcome?
