论《孙子兵法》的纲领

A Probe into the Principles of The Art of War

在孙子兵法的思想体系中,统领全书思想的纲领是孙子在《军争篇》中提出的"故兵,以诈立,以利动,以分合为变者也",即兵以诈立,是指导一切战争最根本的谋略原则;兵以利动,是一切军事斗争最根本的出发点、依据和归宿;兵以分合为变,是军队的部署、调动、投入战争所采取的基本的形式和方法。

In the ideological system of The Art of War, ＂dissimulation＂ and ＂seeking profits＂ is one of the most fundamental guidelines. In Chapter Seven ＂Maneuvering＂, Sun Tzu says that in war, practice dissimulation, and you will succeed;he also says whether to concentrate or to divide your troops must be decided by circumstances. This means that deception is the leading guiding strategy in all wars and that profit is the starting point, basis and aim of all kinds of military struggle. The dispersing or convening of soldiers is the basic form and tactics in deploying troops into the war or removing them from the battlefield.
