Beginning
King Of Wu Challenges His Teachings
                       If instructions are not clear and commands
                       not explicit, it is the commander兵s fault.

                           So if the orders are unclear then it is the fault of
                           the general that the troops did not obey. But if the
                           orders are clear, and his orders have been clear, it is
                           the fault of the subordinate of鍖cers that the orders
                           are not obeyed.
3 Key Principles that
  unify his teachings
 Know your enemy and know yourself
  and in 100 battles you will never be in
  peril.
 To win 100 battles is not the height of
  skill  To subdue the enemy without
  鍖ghting is.
 Avoid what is strong. Attack what is
  weak.

Great Quotes From Sun
            Tzu
In war, numbers alone confer no advantage - Do not advance relaying on sheer military
                                      power.

 Know your enemy and know yourself and in 100 battles you will never be in peril.

    There are 鍖ve fundamental factors for success in war - Weather, terrain, leadership,
               military doctrine, and most importantly - moral in鍖uence.

  Put the army in the face of death where there is no escape and they will not 鍖ee or be
                      afraid - there is nothing they cannot achieve.

          It is essential for victory that generals are contrained by their leaders.

  The winning arm realizes the conditions for victory 鍖rst, then 鍖ghts - The losing army
                              鍖ght 鍖rst then seeks victory.

 When troops 鍖ee, are insubordinates, collapse or are routed in battle, it is the fault of the
                                        general.
