Art of War

Introduction

1-Calculation

If you cannot bring changes you need
to your relationship with your environment.

You must execute a decisive thrust to
push you elsewhere to another environment
where you can find what you required
for your growth and happiness.

Sun Tzu - Art of War
 

Attack by fire
Sun Tzu said:

1. Burn the enemy troops
    

2. Burn their provisions
    

3. Burn their means of transport
    

4. Burn their arsenal
    

5. Burn their routes

The conditions must be right and equipment ready before launching a fiery attack. There are proper seasons and special days to start a fire easily.

The best season is when the weather is hot and dry. The best days depends on the constellations, the winds, the sieve, the wall, the wings and the chariot.

Variations of Fire Attack
Sun Tzu said:

If a fire is started on the inside, respond from the outside.

If a fire is started and the strategy is silence, hold back and do not attack.

If a fire has exhausted it strength, pursue if there is opportunity, stop if there is not.

If a fire can be started on the outside, do not wait for a time to start it inside.

If a fire start upwind, don't attack downwind. In the daytime the wind may last but at night it may stop.

Commanders must understand
the five fiery variations in order
to analyze his defense.
