「火發上風,無攻下風。晝風久,夜風止」

"In incendiary warefare if fires are ignited upwind, do not attack downwind. Winds that arise in the daytime will persist; those taht arise at night will stop." Chapter 12: "The Incendiary Attack"

"When you start a fire, be to windward of it. Do not attack from the leeward. A wind that rises in the daytime lasts long, but a night breeze soon falls."
Chapter XII "THE ATTACK BY FIRE"  
LIONEL GILES, M.A.



這裡選的是火攻五法中的一部份,這一次兩個翻譯的意思就相同了。

孫子兵法雖然比較少提到實際戰場上的情況變化,而以戰略原則著稱。

不過一些基礎的觀察含是有其獨到之處。

雖然在當今有很多會被當成是常識,不過這些東西就像是「哥倫布的雞蛋」一樣,是有原創性的想法。
