The ERRORLEVEL environment variable holds the return value of the last executed command. So you can use:

IF %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 (
  echo "Previous command execution failed."
  exit %ERRORLEVEL%
)

Please see http://steve-jansen.github.io/guides/windows-batch-scripting/part-3-return-codes.html for details.
