Sun WU: Manoeuvring ~ 《孙子兵法—军争篇》 with English Translations

小编导读:《孙子兵法--军争篇》是春秋末年的齐国人孙武的作品。军争篇是《孙子兵法》的第七篇,本篇以“诈”“动”“分合”为指导,论述军队在战场上实际接战中的战机选择问题,要求指挥者创造战机,不失时机地把握战机。 《孙子兵法---军争篇》 孙子曰: 凡用兵之法,将受命于君,合军聚众,交和而舍,莫难于军争。军争之难者,以迂为直,以患为利。故迂其途,而诱之以利,后人发,先人至,此知迂直之计者也。 故军争为利,军争为危。举军而争利,则不及;委军而争利,则辎重捐。是故卷甲而趋,日夜不处,倍道兼行,百里而争利,则擒三将军。劲者先,疲者后,其法十一而至;五十里而争利,则蹶上将军,其法半至;三十里而争利,则三分之二至。是故军无辎重则亡,无粮食则亡,无委积则亡。 故不知诸侯之谋者,不能豫交;不知山林、险阻、沮泽之形者,不能行军;不用乡导者,不能得地利。故兵以诈立,以利动,以分合为变者也。故其疾如风,其徐如林,侵掠如火,不动如山,难知如阴,动如雷震。掠乡分众,廓地分利,悬权而动。先知迂直之计者胜,此军争之法也。 《军政》曰:“言不相闻,故为金鼓;视不相见,故为旌旗。”夫金鼓旌旗者,所以一人之耳目也;人既专一,则勇者不得独进,怯者不得独退,此用众之法也。故夜战多火鼓,昼战多旌旗,所以变人之耳目也。 故三军可夺气,将军可夺心。是故朝气锐,昼气惰,暮气归。故善用兵者,避其锐气,击其惰归,此治气者也。以治待乱,以静待哗,此治心者也。以近待远,以佚待劳,以饱待饥,此治力者也。无邀正正之旗,勿击堂堂之陈,此治变者也。 故用兵之法,高陵勿向,背丘勿逆,佯北勿从,锐卒勿攻,饵兵勿食,归师勿遏,围师必阙,穷寇勿迫,此用兵之法也。 Manoeuvring Sun WU Normally, in war, the general receives his commands from the sovereign. During the process from assembling his troops and mobilising the people to blending the army into a harmonious entity and encamping it, nothing is more difficult than the art of manoeuvering for advantageous positions. What is difficult...
