第三篇：謀攻
Chapter 3：Attack by Stratagem

16. 三軍既惑且疑，則諸侯之難至矣，是謂亂軍引勝。

一旦三軍變得困惑不堪又失去信心，其他諸侯就會藉口出兵帶來災難，這無疑是自亂軍心，將勝利白白捨棄！
Once the troop is confused and unconfident, other feudal rulers will attack causing disasters, this is simply casting chaos in the troop and giving victory away.

17. 故知勝有五：知可以戰與不可以戰者勝，識眾寡之用者勝，上下同欲者勝，以虞待不虞者勝，將能而君不御者勝。此五者，知勝之道也。

我們應該認識取勝的五個要素：

取勝的第一要素，能夠判斷何時可以出戰何時不可以出戰；
取勝的第二要素，能夠靈活的利用兵力之大小做戰略佈局；
取勝的第三要素，能夠使全國的百姓和三軍上下同心協力；
取勝的第四要素，用裝備完善的部隊攻打裝備不全的敵人；
取勝的第五要素，任用善於征戰的將帥但不受君王之干預。

以上五項，乃是我們必須認識的致勝之道。

We should realize that there are five keys to victory:

Victory 1, precisely justify the time to fight and the time not to fight;
Victory 2, be able to develop tactics based on the size of armed forces;
Victory 3, be able to unify citizens and the troop with the same spirit;
Victory 4, dispatch well-prepared army to fight against unprepared enemy;
Victory 5, appoint capable generals to lead the army without king’s intervention.
These are five essentials for victory that we all must know.

18. 故曰：知己知彼，百戰不殆；不知彼而知己，一勝一負；不知彼不知己，每戰必殆。

所以說：認識自己也認識敵人，必能百戰不敗；不認識敵人只認識自己，勝敗的機會各有一半；既不認識敵人也不認識自己，每戰必輸。

Thus it was said: knowing oneself also knowing the enemy will lead to no loss in one hundred battles, knowing oneself but not the enemy will lead to a half-win and half-loss result, neither knowing the enemy nor oneself will lead to loss in every battle.
