What is war?
As a premise, it's better not to have too much war
It costs a lot of money and there's a possibility of people dying
It takes time and money, so settle it as soon as possible
There is no precedent for a long-lasting battle to be profitable
Taking resources from your own place is a waste of your limited resources, so you shouldn't do it
If you aim for the opponent's saved resources first in battle, you don't need to use your own resources
"The act of killing the opponent" is not the purpose, winning the battle is the purpose
So it is enough to incapacitate the opponent
Just take the opponent's resources
If you are going to do it, think carefully about the following:
1. The morale of your comrades
People at all levels should be united in spirit
2. Timing
Know when it's okay to fight and when it's not
Think about how to fight when you're strong or weak
3. Resolution of situational awareness
You can win if the opponent is off guard
4. Quality of personnel
War is attacking the enemy's unpreparedness and taking them by surprise
Even if you are strong, show weakness
Even if you are brave, show cowardice
Even if you are close, show distance
You should know if you can win before you fight
It is not an exaggeration to say that you cannot win if you do not know
Winning without fighting
The one who wins without hurting the opponent is the greatest
The best thing to do is to break the opponent's strategy
If you are strong, just show it and get them to surrender efficiently
Winning by destroying them is the next best thing
The worst thing you can do is to have a head-on fight with the opponent
Winning 100 out of 100 battles is not necessarily strong
It's better not to fight
