Sun Tzu said: Where soldiers are hostile, the mountain will depend on the valley, depending on the high life, there is no chance of winning the war, and the army of the mountain will also. No water is far away; Guests come from the water, don't welcome them in the water, let them hit them half-heartedly. Those who want to fight, welcome guests without water; Depending on the height of life, there is no water, and the army on the water is also here. Never refuse ze, but go without staying; Cross the army to repel Ze, and back the tree to grass. Here, it is also necessary to repel the Zejun. Pinglu is easy and the right guard is high, and the army of Pinglu is also here. What are the advantages of these four armies? The Yellow Emperor is better than the Four Emperors.
Where the army likes high and hates high, Guiyang is cheap and yin, and the health is practical, and the army has no disease, it is said that it will win. Hilly dikes must be in the sun and right rear. The advantage of this soldier is also the help of the land. When it rains, water comes, and those who want to get involved wait. Wherever there are ravines, yards, dungeons, tight encirclement, sinkholes and gutters, you should go and stay away. I am far away and the enemy is close; I welcome it and the enemy supports it. Those who have obstacles, yellow wells, reeds and mountains beside the army will want something, which is where the treachery lies.
Those who are near and quiet depend on their risks; Away from the challenger, he wants people to enter; People who live in comfortable places are also beneficial; All the trees are moving, come on; Those who have many obstacles in the grass are suspicious; Birds rise and fall; If the beast is terrible, it will cover it. Dust is high and sharp, and the car comes; Humble and broad, only come; Those who come scattered, firewood mining also; Those who travel less will camp in the army. Humble and benefit from the preparation, enter also; Those who argue irrationally advance will retreat; Kerwin Chen who went out first without finding a good job; Those who seek peace without agreement will also seek peace; It is also expected to run the old ice car; Those who half advance and half retreat are lured. Those who stand on sticks are hungry; People who drink water first are thirsty; If you don't see the benefits, you will work hard. Bird gatherers are empty; People who call at night are afraid; Those who disturb the army are not heavy; Those who move the standard are chaotic; Angry people are tired; Millet horses eat meat, the army has no suspension, and those who do not return are also poor bandits. Earnestly, Xu talked with people and lost his job; People who repeatedly admire are embarrassed; People who are punished several times are sleepy; Those who are first violent and then afraid are not refined; Those who come to thank you want to have a rest. The soldiers greeted each other with anger, and for a long time, they did not leave each other. We must observe them carefully.
There are not many soldiers, but there is no Wujin, which is enough to unite Lian Heng and expect the enemy to take people. A husband who is careless and easy to make enemies will be captured by others.
If you don't attach a penalty, you won't accept it, and it will be difficult to use it if you refuse to accept it; If the chess piece has been seized and punished, it is not available. Therefore, it is necessary to use both words and efforts together. If you teach your people, the people will obey you; If you don't do what you want to teach your people, the people won't accept it. Let vegetarians live in harmony with others.
[translation]
Sun Tzu said: When handling and judging the enemy's situation on various terrains, the army should pay attention to the following principles: when crossing the mountain, it must be close to the valley and high, so as to broaden the horizon ahead. When the enemy occupies a high place, it is not advisable to attack from the clouds. This is what the army does in the mountains. When crossing the river, stay away from the current; Don't meet the enemy when he comes from the water. It's good for him to attack halfway. To fight a decisive battle, don't get the moon first; Troops stationed along the river should also be stationed in high places, so as to broaden their horizons ahead and not go upstream. This is how the army deals with rivers. When passing through the saline-alkali swamp, leave quickly and don't stay; If you meet the enemy in the saline-alkali swamp, you must be close to the grass and turn your back to the forest. This is what the army does in the saline-alkali swamp. In order to occupy the open area on the plain, the main flank and rear should rely on the highland, and the front is low and the rear is high. This is the deployment of the army on the plain. Mastering these four principles of using terrain is the reason why the Yellow Emperor defeated the surrounding tribes!
All garrisons must choose dry highlands and avoid wet depressions; Seek sunshine, but avoid darkness; Close to aquatic plants; Maintain supplies and station at high places; In this way, there will be no diseases in the army, which is the guarantee of victory. For hilly dikes, they should occupy the sunny side, and the main flanks and rear should be offset. These measures and treatments that are conducive to the use of troops are all based on topography. If it rains in the upper reaches of the river and you see bubbles floating, you should wait for the water to stabilize a little to prevent flash floods. Some terrain is steep before and after, and water passes through it to block pedestrians; Some are large natural wells with steep streams; Some are natural prisons surrounded by mountains on three sides, which are easy to approach but difficult to get out of; Some are tight encirclement, the grass is deep and the forest is dense, and it is difficult to move; Some are natural traps with low terrain and muddy roads; Have a plenty of natural gap. When you encounter these terrains, you must leave quickly and stay away from them. We should stay away from this terrain and let the enemy approach it; We must face it and let the enemy lean on it. On the way to March, there are steep passes, lakes and swamps, water networks, reeds, mountains and lush vegetation. We must search carefully and repeatedly. These are all places where the enemy may set an ambush or hide detectives.
The approach and quietness of the enemy depends on the danger of his occupation of the terrain; The enemy's challenge from a distance is to lure me forward; The enemy's occupation of the flat land without danger will certainly be conducive to a decisive battle with me. When there is no wind and many trees shake, the enemy comes from the cool, and there are many obstacles in the grass, which is a suspicious array laid by the enemy; The bird suddenly flew, but there was an ambush below; It is the enemy's covert attack that makes the beast move on the news; The dust is high and sharp, and it is the enemy's chariot coming; The dust is low and wide, and the enemy infantry is coming; It is the enemy who is cutting wood and grass, raising dust; The enemy is camping, and the dust is less, and it rises and falls. The emissary sent by the enemy has mild words, but he is stepping up preparations for the attack; Those who use tough words and take an offensive stance are ready to retreat; Without pomp, all deployed on the flank are battle formations; There is also a plot to make peace without causing trouble; The enemy's team is running, arranging chariots, expecting a decisive battle with me; The enemy's half-advance and half-retreat is an attempt to lure our army into the bait. Enemy soldiers' confrontation with weapons is a sign of hunger; It is a sign of thirst for enemy soldiers to drink water first; It is a sign of fatigue that the enemy does not advance when he sees the benefits; The birds gathered in the enemy camp proved to be empty; The screams of the enemy at night are a sign of panic; What bothers the enemy will not be serious; What makes the flag shake irregularly is the confusion of the enemy team; The irritability of enemy officers is a sign of fatigue; Those who feed horses and food, kill cows and pull heavy carts to eat meat, clean up cooking utensils, and the troops don't return to camp are poor bandits who are ready to break through or try their best to escape; It is the enemy who will lose people's hearts by speaking to subordinates; The constant return is that the enemy has no way; The constant punishment is that the enemy is in a difficult situation; The generals who are first ruthless and then afraid of their subordinates are the least savvy; It is the enemy who wants a truce to send envoys to negotiate tactfully and modestly; If the enemy approaches me angrily, but does not retreat for a long time, we must carefully observe his intentions. |? Strength is not the more the better, as long as we can concentrate our strength, recognize the enemy's situation and select talents without blindly advancing. Only those who are thoughtless and underestimate the enemy will be captured by the enemy.
The general will execute the punishment before the soldiers are attached, and it will be difficult to cooperate if they refuse to accept it. After the rank is added, if you can't enforce discipline, you can't use it in combat. Therefore, it is necessary to manage them with "gentle means" and "military discipline and military law" to make them neat and consistent. Such an army will surely win the battle. Always strictly follow orders to discipline the team, and the team will form the habit of obedience; Usually, if we can't strictly carry out orders to restrain the team, the team will form the habit of disobedience. Usually, orders can be carried out because the general and the ranks get along well. As long as we don't rush blindly, we can concentrate our efforts, recognize the enemy's situation and select talents. Only those who are thoughtless and underestimate the enemy will be captured by the enemy.

Always strictly follow orders to discipline the team, the team will form the habit of obedience, if not strictly follow orders to discipline the team, the team will form the habit of disobedience. Being able to execute orders at ordinary times shows that the general and the ranks get along well.
