第一套 勝戰計

Chapter 1: Winning Stratagems

第一計 瞞天過海

crossing the sea under camouflage

▌原文

備周則意怠;常見則不疑。陰在陽之內，不在陽之對。太陽，太陰。

▌英文注釋

Mask your real goals, by using the ruse of a fake goal, until the real goal is achieved. Tactically, this is known as an 'open feint': in front of everyone, you point west, when your goal is actually in the east.

第二計 圍魏救趙

relieving the state of Zhao by besieging the state of Wei

▌原文

共敵不如分敵;敵陽不如敵陰。

▌英文注釋

When the enemy is too strong to be attacked directly, then attack something he holds dear. Know that he cannot be superior in all things. Somewhere there is a gap in the armour, a weakness that can be attacked instead. The idea here is to avoid a head-on battle with a strong enemy, and instead strike at his weakness elsewhere. This will force the strong enemy to retreat in order to support his weakness. Battling against the now tired and low-morale enemy will give a much higher chance of success.

第三計 借刀殺人

killing someone with a borrowed knife

▌原文

敵已明，友示定，引友殺敵，不自出力，以《損》推演。

▌英文注釋

When you do not have the means to attack your enemy directly, then attack using the strength of another. Trick an ally into attacking him, bribe an official to turn traitor, or use the enemy's own strength against him.

第四計 以逸待勞

waiting at one's ease for the exhausted enemy

▌原文

困敵之勢，不以戰;損剛益柔。

▌英文注釋

It is an advantage to choose the time and place for battle. In this way you know when and where the battle will take place, while your enemy does not. Encourage your enemy to expend his energy in futile quests while you conserve your strength. When he is exhausted and confused, you attack with energy and purpose.

第五計 趁火打劫

plundering a burning house

▌原文

敵之害大，就勢取利，剛決柔也。

▌英文注釋

When a country is beset by internal conflicts, when disease and famine ravage the population, when corruption and crime are rampant, then it will be unable to deal with an outside threat. This is the time to attack.

第六計 聲東擊西

making a feint to the east and attacking in the west

▌原文

敵志亂萃，不虞，坤下兌上之象。利其不自主而取之。

▌英文注釋

In any battle the element of surprise can provide an overwhelming advantage. Even when face to face with an enemy, surprise can still be employed by attacking where he least expects it. To do this you must create an expectation in the enemy's mind through the use of a feint.
