    The research for this one took me far longer than expected (just over 8 months, I believe).
    Nevertheless, the work has now been done. I'm back.

    This was, indeed, very useful to me every time I went to war.
    My entire village is grateful to you! They have chipped in and erased a giant monument: a simple, yet huge and eloquent metal laurel wreath placed on top of an extremely high pedestal. Each morning, fresh flowers are thrown at the monument by nubile farmers' daughters while the village elders splash lukewarm coffee onto them. At dusk, we all gather around the monument and watch the video again on our mobiles.
    Thank you, Madam, from the bottom of our hearts!

      Those are some great strategies, but they are not suitable for ordinary people. You have to understand that these ancient conspiracies were born in the era of constant war in ancient China. You don’t want our society to be full of fraud and have no trust between people at all

    Another good example for number 6 u could’ve used was the battle of vaslui with the ottomans vs moldavians because the battlefield was very foggy and the ottomans deep in enemy territory didn’t know the area very well but the moldavians did and they used it to their advantage by having guys on the west of the ottomans make lots of noise by blowing horns, using drums and screaming as if they were gonna charge and attack from there and in response the ottomans focused heavily on their left anticipating an attack and completely neglecting their right which was where the real attack was going to come from

      Relieving the state of Zhao by besieging the state of Wei
      共敌不如分敌;敌阳不如敌阴。
      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.

      @@CaiZhongwen2023 I think you didn't understand my reply. I stated of course it was originally written by Chinese, because the names Wei and Zhao make it obvious that it was written by Chinese. Now do you understand?
      Though your unneeded explanation pointing out the obvious should help those who ate paint chips as a child, I am sure.
