There were still several hours until dawn. Without finding a way out, Jiang Chen would never make it through the coming hours. He wasn't entirely certain that the command post was on the summit of Tianshan, but the summit was undoubtedly an ideal spot. If it were him, he would have chosen the summit to establish a temporary command post as well. It was a high vantage point surrounded by cliffs on all sides, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Once he had a plan, Jiang Chen began to map it out. He closed his eyes, visualizing the path he had taken to infer his current position and his distance from the Tianshan summit. Relying on memory for such calculations was not perfectly precise, but it was close enough. The difficulty now was that the massive army was closing in; he had to find a way to break through. He could not slip away silently, and the moment he revealed himself, a bitter struggle would await him. He remained in hiding, not daring to surface.
More and more fighter jets appeared in the sky, their powerful beams constantly sweeping the area, turning the landscape as bright as day. Jiang Chen knew he didn't have much time left. The area he occupied had been locked down; if he didn't find a way out, he would soon be swarmed by a countless army. Once surrounded, even with three heads and six arms, he would not be able to escape his fate.
