San Lve (three tactics Of Huang Shi Gong)

by Huang Shi Gong

The original Chinese:

《三略》

黃石公

〈上略〉

夫主將之法，務攬英雄之心，賞祿有功，通志于眾。故與眾同好，靡不成；與眾同惡，靡不傾。治國安家，得人也；亡國破家，失人也。含氣之類，咸願得其志。　　

軍讖曰：「柔能制剛，弱能制強。柔者，德也；剛者，賊也。弱者，人之所助；強者，怨之所攻。柔有所設，剛有所施；弱有所用，強有所加。兼此四者，而制其宜。端末未見，人莫能知。天地神明，與物推移。變動無常，因敵變化。不為事先，動而輒隨。故能圖制無疆，扶成天威；匡正八極，密定九夷。如此謀者，為帝王師。」故曰：莫不貪強，鮮能守微，若能守微，乃保其生。聖人存之，以應事機。舒之彌四海，卷之不盈杯；居之不以室宅，守之不以城郭；藏之胸臆，而敵國服。　

軍讖曰：「能柔能剛，其國彌光；能弱能強，其國彌彰。純柔純弱，其國必削；純剛純強，其國必亡。」　　

夫為國之道，恃賢與民；信賢如腹心，使民如四肢，則策無遺。所適如肢體相隨，骨節相救，天道自然，�... Continue reading book >>
