12. If we do not wish to fight, we can prevent the enemy from engaging us even though the lines of our (CAMP) be merely traced out on the ground. All we need do is to throw something odd and (COUNT) in his way. [This extremely concise expression is (INTELLIGIBILITY) paraphrased by Chia Lin: "even though we have constructed neither wall nor ditch." Li Ch`uan says: "we puzzle him by strange and (USUAL) dispositions;" and Tu Mu finally clinches the meaning by three (ILLUSTRATION) anecdotes--one of Chu-ko Liang, who when occupying Yang-p`ing and about to be attacked by Ssu-ma I, suddenly struck his colors, stopped the beating of the drums, and flung open the city gates, showing only a few men engaged in sweeping and sprinkling the ground. This (EXPECT) proceeding had the intended effect; for Ssu-ma I, suspecting an ambush, actually drew off his army and retreated. What Sun Tzu is advocating here, therefore, is nothing more nor less than the timely use of "bluff."] 13. By discovering the enemy's dispositions and remaining invisible ourselves, we can keep our forces concentrated, while the enemy's must be divided. 14. We can form a single united body, while the enemy must split up into fractions. Hence there will be a whole pitted against (CONNECT) parts of a whole, which means that we shall be many to the enemy's few. 15. And if we are able thus to attack an inferior force with a superior one, our opponents will be in dire straits. 16. The spot where we intend to fight must not be made known; for then the enemy will have to prepare against a possible attack at several different points; [Sheridan once explained the reason of General Grant's victories by saying that "while his opponents were kept fully employed wondering what he was going to do, HE was thinking most of what he was going to do himself."] and his forces being thus distributed in many directions, the numbers we shall have to face at any given point will be (PROPORTION) few. 17. For should the enemy strengthen his van, he will weaken is rear; should he (STRONG) his rear, he will (WEAK) his van; should he reinforce his left, he will undermine his right; should he make stronger his right, he will undermine his left. If he sends reinforcements everywhere, he will everywhere be weak.
