Thank you for making high quality content. Thx to this channel, i won't get bored in the next couple of months. You are doing society a favor, by educating people in such an entertaining way.
Read the AOW last summer. The quote that always sticks with me is "Let you plans be as dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt."
“Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the comment sections fate.” - Sun Tzu
Congratulations on your very good pronunciation of Chinese, names and places. It’s very refreshing. I’ve suffered through so many butcherings of it I’ve lost count.
General Cao Cao would be cool! Lao Tzu would be amazing but "prefaced" with same understanding that, like Sun Tsu, the writings may be an amalgamation of "wisdom" created for the appropriate topics that confront humanity. Be Well!! 😃
Sun Zi Bing Fa is a very extraordinary ancient Chinese book that tells us how to win a battle more easily even though we are in trouble. There's another important thing that Sun Zi Bing Fa also provides us with useful advice on facing and dealing with difficulties at work.
@@ChasingElizabeth That 'deal' was secured by one Donald Trump [Doha, Qatar, February 2020] It committed to the withdrawal of US and allied troops from Afghanistan by May 2021. Trump made NO sensible preparations for a withdrawl, including of equipment. Would you rather have seen Biden betray the WORD of the USA ? Tell me how you think the USA could remove all of that which Trump had not, in four months ? The USA fucked up, not just Biden, Trump was even more of a clown. The Afghans don't distunguish between your ever changing chieftains, they look at the whole, the USA, which they defeated.
The Art of Wart, Sun Tzu, the philosophy provides a lot of teaching or wisdom: If you know the enemy and yourself, you should not fear the outcome of hundreds battles. Prudence with creativity and firmness with patience. The wise man always wins because he does not compete. The Art of Wart reaches to win without fighting, the importance of knowing yourself, to have clarity where you have your feet, or clarity of the situation, problems etc. the importance of creativity. The most important is to know yourself.
Okay People’s Profiles yes I am very interested in the history of Sun Tzu but now I really think it’s time you do a documentary on Walt Disney, Balto or Gunnar Kaasen or something else even more unexpected please? I think you’re an amazing historian and I enjoy all of your videos. It’s just that in this time of serious politics people need to STOP talking about politics and look to more important things like history.
For those saying that sun tzu's srt of war is common sense, russia campaign in ukraine, especially in the first few months, did the exact opposite of what the art of war advised.
First : You have Never been in the army ! Second : You didn't follow the Istanbul Peace talks, which were canceled by John Boris. Third : be happy that President Putin is a level headed Leader , because we are still at Peace !!!!! Do You really want an Atomic War ?!? I Don't !!!!!
Or our experts, who proclaimed that Russan economy was in tatters in april of 2022 and that Russan Army spent all their ammunition somewhere in the middle of the summer of 2022,. Their showel - armed soldiers all died in those suicidal brainless zombie swarm - meat wave attacks?
Niccolo Machiavelli was either a straightforward pragmatic advisor to those who would be "The Prince" or a genius of hidden sarcasm who, for need of personal survival, was an equal to Jonathan Swift (A Modest Proposal) yet less obvious.. Either he was sincere in his desire for absolute power to be absolutely corrupt.. or he was pointing out how to be absolutely corrupt in such a way as to present an "in your face" profile of how absolute power without conscience works. His situation would not have the same "leeway" as Jonathan Swift enjoyed while presenting his Modest Proposal.. Just a thought.. Be Well!! 😃
Interesting video but according to the narrator it’s all speculation. There’s really no evidence sun tzu was real or just a fictional character created to summarize military strategy
É precisamente para aqueles que não lutaram diretamente no campo de batalha que a guerra é uma arte. Um comandante é o pintor cuja pintura são os homens que envia para lutar. Ele nunca admitiria isso em voz alta, mas pode muito bem pensar assim.
Thank you for a very well-informed documentary. However, it would have been nice if the narrator spoke some Chinese and had a more accurate pronunciation of the characters and locations.
So this is historical context, but what of the military context. Well, Ho Chi Min, communist leader of North Vietnam followed The Art Of War down to the letter and it worked out extraordinarily well for him, defeating American forces who had superior weaponry. Im interested in the actual treatise.
One of the most famous ancient tactician who never actually involved in any battle/war. In other words, a world famous table top general who is studied by so many. He was indeed a brilliant tactician who achieved his fame not fighting a single war/battle. If that is not an art of war, what is?
@@sopi713 For a such world famous figure known for his prowess as a tactician, there is no verifiable account of his actual war participation. Of course that also doesn't mean he never participated in a war/battle. History just might not be aware of it.
He involved in some big wars as military advisor because he couldn't walk so he refused to be a general. It was recorded in history books. He was framed by his classmate and was tortured in prison. His knees got cut off so he couldn't walk anymore. While finally he defeated his classmate, the general of enemy military, and had him killed during a war. It was called the war of Liling if I remember correctly
While there may be debate as to whether Sun Tzu actually existed, his principles of war laid out in The Art of War are the fundamentals for warfare. While technology & weaponry may advance, sometimes by leaps & bounds, the basic tenets of conducting warfare do not change. The means may change, but the ends do not, and will not, change. The question of Sun Tzu's existence should not detract from the overall value of The Art of War. joeinbuenosaires 😎
Why don't you make a video about comparison/application of Sun Tzu strategy at work against the American financial hegemony without firing a single bullet today!?
An accumulation of errors from the organization of the campaign to the execution and selection of commanders, like he said himself ( you only have certain time for war) he was in decline, but he overall plan of operations was a masterpiece
I rather rely on the art of war exercised by Ghengiz Khan, Kubilai Khan, Subutai, Alexander the Great, Timur Lenk, Alpaslan Khan, Atila Khan, Seljuq Khan, Osman Pasha and others who kicked ass around the known world and founded empires

The Art of War is a nice book for the popular reader. As a true guide for warfare it is little use, IMO. It does NOT address logistics -- which is the heart of warfare. Also, modern war is dictated by war material production. Sun Tzu says nothing about this.
@@SR-pr2xz Yes I did. Also read "On War" by Clausewitz. It has been awhile. I do not remember The Art of War addressing logistics. It is a short book. It doesn't have the room to talk about logistics in any serious detailed manner. Does it do that??
So is Sun Tzu a bad general to you ? just because he wrote briefly about logistics ? Chapter 2, Sun Tzu explained how expensive war is, the damaging effect of long campaigns, and the value of robbing resource from the enemy. And what do you say about the rest of the Art of War ? Is is bs too because logistics talk is so little ?
@@aiquangat8620 Not at all. But, Sun Tzu's work is not detailed. It has nice word bites for popular consumption. It makes war seem simple, which it is not.

Love Sun Tzu and his book on the Art of War
It's a classic, particularly the chapter about spies
孫子はart of warではなく、management of warです。
孫子は戦争を、国家が無視することのできないリスクと定義した。
そして、そのリスクをどのように減少させるかを説いている。
故に孫子の目指す究極の目標は、戦争を行わずに目標を達成することです
Excellent! You truly grasped the core of The Art of War, which is not about winning a war, but preventing a war.
@@georgeeagle872 Thank you😊
Always nice to listen to my favorite narrator/
Another underrated Chinese war Philospher was Mozi (墨翟) who specialised in defensive warfare and built his own weapons
Man you are one heck of a historical figure if your influence stay strong while people debate about your existence.

"When you are about to lose the war, impress your supporters with a victory plan." - Sun Tzu
This narrator > the other ones
every one who wants to be a good political or military tactician always used his book + the learning from there used in things
In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity
