Maxwell Fa's Enlightenment in the Monastery Chapter 521

"General Manager, Protector Shen's messenger has returned."

In the Hexi Jiedushi's mansion, all the officials under Wang Zhongsi were in a hurry. Since the spring, their lord, who was also the Jiedushi of four towns, began to order the four towns' elite 200,000 troops to attack the border fortresses of the foreign bandits in turns. In the past few months, there has been constant war, and the messengers traveling between the various armies have had no rest for a single day.

These experienced officials will be responsible for summarizing and sorting the news brought back by all the messengers, and selecting the most important ones for their masters to review. However, the messenger of their master's son-in-law does not need to be reviewed by them, but can be presented directly to the master.

Seeing the dusty messenger from the Suiye army, the officials in the hall were looking forward to some good news. Now that Tubo had mobilized its entire army and even the Tubo king had declared that he would lead the army in person, the fighting on the front line had become more intense, especially at the fortresses built by the armies of An Sishun, Li Guangbi and Geshu Han, where the Tubo people had gathered a large number of soldiers.

At present, the messengers from these three places have never stopped demanding military supplies, food, and reinforcements. On the contrary, there has been no news for more than two months since Shen Duhu, who led only 25,000 troops of Suiye Army, left.
