Well, this was turning out to be better than he expected. Not only was he not angry anymore, but Ren was actually talking tactics with him. Hux wasn't so arrogant that he'd refused to listen to others, so he heard him out before responding.
"The fact that they're so easily thrown into chaos shows how weak the New Republic really is. They aren't disciplined or ready to rule this galaxy and it's because of their inaction that the First Order was able to grow this powerful in the first place." An angry, almost bitter tone finally reached into his voice, showing how he felt about the war he was fighting against them.
"However, resistance pilots are still out there and we are on this planet without any means to escape yet. We will do well to keep that in mind and not make any foolish mistake." The First Order will continue, even if Hux didn't make it back, but he highly preferred to be part of it rather than just wasting away on this planet. Everyone in the First Order should feel that way, honestly.
"And we must not forget that the traitor most likely leaked information to them as well." If Hux ever saw FN-2187 again... "We will defeat the Resistance, but overconfidence will serve no purpose for us right now."
