“Alik, maybe while it’s not too late, tell your men to retreat. Don’t do this, don’t do this. In any case, Alik, you and I will die. What’s the point of all this? Who will win this? You and I will not win this, understand? If we or I see you in the action, I won’t show you mercy, just like you won’t, understand? It’s better if you come to me as a guest. Retreat your men, have pity for their mothers, have pity for your guys, retreat them. Give the order to retreat.”
“I can’t give that order."
“Alik, listen to me! From my heart, I wish that you survive this, but you better leave.”
“I don’t have a choice. I have orders and I will obey them in any case.”
