Chapter 307
Chapter 1: Vertical and horizontal control is the first of all things, and it is the gateway for square strategy, round strategy, and entry and exit. To govern the world, bring peace to the people, and unify the world, war is not a good strategy. The best policy is to use force and avoid fighting, to talk to each other and kill troops, to subdue others without fighting, and to stop fighting by fighting.
Chapter 2: The most important thing in military affairs is to know yourself and the enemy. If you want to have a plan for victory, you must examine the situation and determine the basis. To grasp the enemy's Sui Dynasty, we must be quick and complete, and expose to the enemy less and slowly. Conspiracy and conspiracy, conspiracy and conspiracy, square strategy and round strategy, round strategy and square strategy must be used alternately, and we must not stick to one end. The army has no fixed strategy, and the strategy has no definite shape, leaving no opportunity for people to take advantage of. This is"ghost talent".
Chapter 3: The affairs between the king and his ministers may be close or distant, far or near. If the king and his ministers miss each other when they hear voices from afar, it is because they have the same strategy and are waiting for him to decide on important matters. In this case, the monarch must be reused, and the general must serve as an official and make achievements. If you are not appointed when the monarch is near, it means that your strategy is inconsistent. At this time, it is the best policy to remove your armor and return to the field.
Chapter 4: Dividing and reuniting is natural. Revenge for body destruction, revenge for death, and resource allocation issues were instigated by others.
Chapter 5: Whenever you want to decide whether to conquer far or near, you must weigh the advantages and disadvantages of strength. We must consider the financial resources, diplomacy, environment, and superior and subordinate relationships of both the enemy and ourselves, and those with hidden dangers can be conquered. The best way to conquer is to rely on strength to intimidate.
Chapter 6: Countries may unite or confront each other. To achieve great things, they need to have a comprehensive strategy and be able to bring all the princes together. A man who is not a sage and wise gentleman cannot command the country without deep wisdom. A man without wisdom cannot command the military. To correctly determine who to unite with and who to attack, the key is to have the talent and wisdom to compare the length and distance of both sides, and then you can advance, retreat, maneuver, and horizontally, and use the art of war freely.
Chapter 7: To plan national events, you must be able to guess what other countries are thinking. If you can't guess, it will be useless even if you have the ways of the ancestors and the wisdom of the sage. Speculation is the basis of strategy.
Chapter 8: Presiding over military training, so that the army can win battles without the soldiers feeling fear, so that the army can always win without using weapons or spending money or materials, is considered a"god". To achieve this, the key lies in strategy, and the key to the success of the strategy lies in thoroughness.
Chapter 9: Those who are good at striving for hegemony must weigh the power of all parties in the world and measure the land, population, wealth, terrain, strategy, unity, diplomacy, weather, talents, people's hearts and other national affairs of each country before they can make major decisions.
Chapter 10: Every military strategy has certain rules. Everything is about planning, making a living, planning for life, discussing about life, talking about the advancement of life, the advancement of life and retreat, and the system of retreat. For the purpose of strategy, public is not as good as private, private is not as good as law, justice is not as good as strange, and the flow of strange things does not stop.
Chapter 11: All decisions are made because of doubts. Under normal circumstances, decisions can be made through analysis. When it comes to major military affairs, all aspects are very complicated and difficult to make a decision. You can use divination to make a decision.
Chapter 12: When using soldiers and generals, rewards and punishments must be strict. The most important thing in using rewards is fairness. Only by being strict in rewards and punishments can you be victorious.
Chapter 13: It is human nature to want things done. For this reason, a wise person would rather use a fool's strengths than his own shortcomings. He would rather use a fool's strengths than his own clumsiness. Only in this way can he There will be no poverty.
The thirteen chapters of Guiguzi's Art of War and the thirteen chapters of Sun Tzu's Art of War passed down by later generations are mutually reinforcing each other.
Guiguzi advocated using round strategy (national policy) to strengthen the army, while Sun Tzu advocated using square strategy (offensive and defensive) to achieve complete victory. Both art of war advocate subduing the enemy without fighting. ,
Guiguzi read it carefully, wrote it into the Art of War, and passed it on to future generations.
It is the famous"Guigu Art of War".
After Gui Guzi discovered the secret of the Golden Book, he could get one book every night by reading it once every night.
What I got on the third night was a strange book on getting rich. It talked about breeding methods and trading principles. It said that"if you want to take something, you must give it to you first" and that"if the world is irreversible, hide it deeply and wait for the time."
This method was passed down by Gui Guzi to Ji Ran, Lu Buwei, Bai Gui and others.
What I read on the fourth night was"The Dafa of Cultivation of Nature", which mainly talked about"Seven Techniques of Yin Fu" in this classic. It said that the prosperity of the spirit depends on the five qi, the spirit is the growth, and the heart is the technique. The five qi depend on spiritual factors such as ambition, thinking, spirit, and virtue.
Only when these four are not in decline can one become a real person by being calm and nourishing the energy.
Gui Guzi passed this secret on to Mao Kuang and Xu Fu, and later on to Tao Hongjing and others.
On the fifth night, I read the fortune-telling and physiognomy technique, which talks about the Tianwu Sutra; fate, physiognomy, and life's misfortunes and blessings. This method was also passed on to Mao Kuai by Gui Guzi, and later to Sima Jizhu, Li Xuzhong and others.
The sixth night, the seventh night..., Gui Guzi must read it every night, a new book every time, covering everything from heaven and earth, governing the country, official career and economy, astronomy and geography, astrology, and elixirs for health. Inexhaustible.
After that, Guiguzi regarded it as a treasure and couldn't put it down. He studied the wordless book every day and learned the knowledge above.
Although the Wordless Heavenly Book does not contain a single word, it is all-encompassing.
Guiguzi eventually became a saint and founded the Guigu Sect.
Become a famous presence in Chinese history.
