Nice info on some old chinese battle strategies, I don't know were this comes from, but it is an interesting read from a number of viewpoints.

Yeah, that's pretty "well know" almost to the point of folklore. It supposedly written by a Taoist strategist by the name of Gwai (Ghost) Gok (Valley) Tze ( as in Lao Tze) during the Warring States period (around 200 BCE?). He was supposedly the teacher of 2 outstanding strategists whom work against each other. One worked for Qin, which later conquered the other six states. The other tried to unite the six to go against Qin but failed. Number 36 is the most supereme strategy of all. ;) LOL Russian used that and defeated Neaponlian. So run!

That was entertaining at the very least. I think I have read some of those stories.

Nice post.

China Culture's YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleeqn61KSWipVWWu9kJfGQ) is doing short vids on the 36 strategies. It started yesterday.
