Mind (Su Xun)
In order to teach the truth, we should first treat the heart. Mount Tai collapses in front of it, but its color remains the same. Elk thrives on the left without blinking, and then it can control its interests and rule its enemies.
As a general's principle, we must first cultivate our minds. Only when Mount Tai collapses in front of our eyes without changing color, and elk scurry around without blinking, can we control the interests and deal with the enemy.
Every soldier is just and unjust. Although he is profitable, don't move. If you don't move, you will be at a loss. A righteous man can be angry, and an angry man can fight a hundred battles.
The military advocates justice. If it is not justice, don't act even if it is profitable. It's not that every move is harmful, but something that can't be handled will happen in the future. Only justice can anger morale, and if you anger morale with justice, you can devote yourself to fighting.
Every way of fighting, not fighting to raise money, fighting to raise strength, not only raises the spirit, but also raises the heart. I want to express my regret and severely reprimand the cultivators so that they have no scruples, so they raise money; Rich and excellent, so raise its strength; Small wins are urgent, small setbacks are beneficial, and their qi is raised; People don't do whatever they want, so they nourish their hearts. Therefore, scholars often have their own desires. Endless anger leads to more courage, and endless desire leads to more greed. Therefore, although he is at peace with the world, scholars are tireless in fighting, and the reason why the Yellow Emperor fought seventy wars was that the soldiers were not in danger. If you don't cultivate your heart, you will win the first battle, so you can't use it.
The operational measures are roughly as follows: before the war has happened, we should accumulate financial resources; When the war is about to happen, we should cultivate combat effectiveness; When the war begins, we should cultivate morale; If you win the war, you must cultivate your mind. Carefully set up warning lighthouses, strictly patrol the border, and let farmers have no scruples and farm with peace of mind. This is the way to accumulate financial resources. Comfort soldiers with rich food, wine and other things, let them relax and save their strength. This is the way to cultivate combat effectiveness. To achieve a small victory, what is more urgent is the feelings of soldiers; If you suffer a little setback, you should encourage more soldiers. This is the way to cultivate morale. When using soldiers, we should pay attention to prevent soldiers from fully realizing their desires. This is the way to cultivate their minds. Therefore, soldiers often accumulate anger, but they have desires in their hearts and cannot fully realize them. If the anger is not eliminated, there will be more courage than praise. If the desire is not fully realized, it will continue to pursue, so even if the world is annexed, soldiers do not hate fighting. This is why the Yellow Emperor's army has never slackened after 70 battles. If you don't cultivate your mind, soldiers can't continue fighting after winning a battle.
Anyone who wants wisdom is strict, and anyone who wants stupidity is stupid. Wisdom is unpredictable, and strictness cannot be made. Therefore, all scholars are under their own orders, and husbands are not stupid. Husband is only a fool, and then he can die with him.
Generals should be smart and strict, and soldiers should be ignorant. Cleverness is unpredictable, severity is not offensive, so how can soldiers not be ignorant when they all give up themselves and obey orders? Only soldiers are stupid, and then they can risk their lives.
Whenever a soldier moves, he knows the enemy's master and the enemy's general, so that he can move in danger. Deng Aishou (zhuì) is a soldier of Shu, not a mediocre man, so a million-strong army can sit and bind him. Naturally, he is humiliated and moved. Therefore, the ancient sages can taste the enemy with soldiers and taste themselves with enemies, so they can decide when to go.
When sending troops, you should know the enemy's monarch and generals before sending troops to dangerous places. The general of Wei, Deng Ai, led the troops to cut (from Yinping Hutong, he traveled more than 700 miles in no man's land, tied his troops with ropes and fell into a deep valley from the mountain). If it weren't for the fatuity and incompetence of Liu Chan, the late ruler of Shu Han, millions of troops could have done nothing and tied them up. Wargo always looked down on Liu Chan, so he sent troops to dangerous places. Therefore, a good general in ancient times could use his army to test the strength of the enemy, and at the same time measure himself with the enemy's reaction, so as to decide his own course of action.
Every master's way, know the reason and then you can transfer troops, know the situation and then you can add troops, and then you can fight. Know its reason but not surrender, know its feelings but not depression, know its festival but not poverty. Don't move when you see small profits, and don't avoid small disasters. Small profits and small troubles are not enough to humiliate my skills. The husband then suffered a catastrophe in Italy. A husband who loves himself only by practicing skills is invincible in the world. Therefore, patience can support a hundred braveness, and silence can control a hundred actions.
The principle of being a general is: be reasonable before sending troops, be reasonable before sending troops, and be reasonable before sending troops. If you understand the truth, you will not give in, if you understand the situation, you will not be discouraged, and if you understand moderation, you will not be embarrassed. Don't be tempted to see small interests, and don't avoid small disasters. Small interests and disasters are not worth humiliating my skills, and then I can cope with big interests and disasters. Only those who are good at practicing skills and love themselves are invincible in the world. Therefore, forbearance can resist all kinds of courage, and quietness can control all kinds of actions.
Soldiers are long and short, and the enemy and I are also one. Dare to ask: "my strengths, I use them, he will not work with our school;" What I lack, I will make up for it, and he will be stronger than my horn. what can I do? "He said," My strengths and weaknesses, which I resisted violently (pú), made me doubt and fail. My strengths, which I nurtured in the shade, made me fall into it. This is also the skill of length. "
The army has its own strengths and weaknesses, whether it is the enemy or the enemy. Excuse me: I use our strengths, but the enemy does not compete with me; I hid our shortcomings, but the enemy is trying to confront me. What should I do? A: I deliberately exposed our shortcomings and made the enemy suspicious and retreat; Our strengths, I secretly hide, let the enemy scoff, trap. This is a flexible way to use your strengths and weaknesses.
Those who make good use of soldiers make them ignore and rely on them. If you don't care, you know that death is not enough; If you rely on something, you won't know that you will fail. The ruler is a tiger, yelling and hitting; When you meet a lizard with your bare hands, you will become discouraged, and so will your feelings. If you know this, you can do it. If he makes a sword with his head bare, Wu Huo will not dare to force him; If you wear armor and sleep like a soldier, the boy will be killed with a bow. Therefore, those who are good at using soldiers are solid. If a husband can form a solid body, he can do more.
People who are good at fighting should let soldiers have no scruples, but rely on them. Soldiers have no scruples and know that sacrifice is not a pity; If you rely on something, you will know that you will not fail. Holding a foot-long whip, facing the tiger, dare to shout hard; When you meet a lizard empty-handed, you will turn pale and retreat again and again, which is human nature. If you understand this truth, you can lead troops. If you are naked but holding a sword, Hercules Wu Huo will not dare to approach; If he sleeps with a helmet and armor and a weapon, the child will dare to bow his head and shoot. Therefore, people who are good at fighting use various conditions to consolidate themselves; It is extremely powerful to be able to use various conditions to consolidate yourself.
