Explanation:

- The passage discusses military readiness and the context of a border issue with China.

- The words used in the passage show a military and strategic context.

- "Messengers" are people or means used to convey messages. This does not fit since the context involves defense and readiness against potential threats.

- "Terrorists" are non-state actors, and using this term wouldn’t be accurate when discussing strategic military challenges at a national border level.

- "Adversaries" refers to opponents or enemies, which is a suitable term in a military context. It indicates nations or groups that could pose a threat.

- "Friends" are allies or positive relations, which wouldn’t match the context of a threat or military deployment.
