RE: Sun Zi's Art of War : 再读孙子兵法
The only thing missing was "the Cause" why the soldiers were fighting is also a huge factor in battles. State of mind. I guess 2500 years ago it was a lot easier to convince people to fight when you lived in a tiny village with nothing to do and suddenly 50 men on horses with swords and armor show up and ask you to join them. I'd probably.
I read the book when I was teen. It was kinda dry, in part due to translation, but I do love reading articles about the book of war.
Maybe we can cowork to find winner example of War which use SunZi art. And introduce to everyone.( 經典战役史蹟 )
Have you read it? It starts with considerations like that, actually. Hmm, let me find a copy and I'll quore you exact passages.
the translated copy i had was awful. Would like something more how to say "modern" language i guess
