ANSWER--
Q1) Why did the soldier decide to make a move from the battle field?

The soldier found that battle was getting dangerous for him and to safe he decided to make a move from the battle.
Q2) Was the battle a severe one? Support your answer by citing words/expressions from the story
Sol-- Nope severe means great and i didn't found this paragraph a severe one
Q3) What may be the possible cause for the officer to be angry?
Sol-
One of the most possible cause for the officer to be angry would be that, the soldier was running like a coward from the battle which was going on.. and one of the soldier characteristics are that they don't have a fear of anything and they are ready to die for the country but this soldier was having a fear of his life more than the country.
Q3) What idea was finally formed in the mind of the soldier when he realized that the man was
commanding officer?
Sol..
The idea which was in the soldier when he realized the man was the commanding officer was surely that he was having a fear of the man. He said that he didn't realized that he was so far from the battle. It was said in fear he said this to not get a scold from his senior. He was surely sorry for that.
Q4) What impression do you get about the officer?
I get a good impression from the officer. His words meant the feeling of a true soldier. He was angry when he found the soldier was running like a coward from the battle. That surely means he didn't fear from dying.
