For different opponents, you need to use different moves to deal with them, and you can't be the same. Sometimes, it is a fierce move on this person, and a soft move on others; On the contrary, what is a soft move in this person becomes a fierce move in others. This must be done: different from person to person, from time to time, and according to local conditions. This is the essence of the "Fire Attack Chapter" of "The Art of War".

【This Guide】

This article mainly introduces the types of fire attacks, the conditions for their implementation, and the correct attitude towards warfare.

There are five types of fire attack: "Fire Man", "Fire Accumulation", "Fire Jacket", "Fire Depot", and "Fire Team".

Conditions for the implementation of fire attack: there must be a cause for fire, and fireworks must be equipped. There are times when the fire starts, and there are days when the fire starts. If the fire is on the inside, it should be on the outside. Those who send fire to the army quietly, wait and do not attack, extremely firepower, can be followed, not stopped. Fire can be sent out outside, not inside, and then it can be sent out at the right time. The fire has the upper hand, and there is no attack on the downwind. The day wind is long, and the night wind stops.

The correct attitude towards war is that it is not profitable, it must not be used, and it is not dangerous and not war.

The theme of this article: When you get angry, you don't fight.

【Source of Wisdom】

Sun Tzu said: There are five types of fire attacks: one is the fire man, the second is the fire accumulation, the third is the fire chariot, the fourth is the fire storehouse, and the fifth is the fire. There must be a cause for fire, and fireworks must be furnished. There are times when the fire starts, and there are days when the fire starts. The time is dry, and the sky is dry; The sun and the moon are in the kei, the wall, the wings, and the wings, and all these four dwellings, the day when the wind rises.

Whatever fire attacks will be responded to by the changes of the five fires.

If the fire is on the inside, it should be on the outside. Those who are still in the fire, waiting to attack, are extremely firepower, which can be stopped, not stopped. Fire can be sent out outside, not inside, and at the right time. The fire has the upper hand, and there is no attack on the downwind. The day wind is long, and the night wind stops. All armies will know that there are five fires, and they will defend them by number.

Therefore, the attacker is bright with fire, and the attacker is strong with water. Water can be extinguished, not taken away.

The husband defeats the attack, and the one who does not cultivate his merits is fierce. The fate said: "Fei Liu". Therefore, it is said: If the Lord is concerned, the good will repair it.

If it is not profitable, it must not be used, and it is not dangerous and not fighting. The Lord shall not be angry and will not be discouraged and cause war. Move in line with the benefits, and stop at the interests of the people. Anger can be rejoiced, sorrow can be rejuvenated; The dead country cannot be restored, and the dead cannot be restored. Therefore, the Ming Jun is cautious, and the good generals are the police, and this is the way of the whole army of the country.

【Classic Interpretation】

Sun Tzu said: There are five forms of fire attack, one is to burn the enemy's soldiers and horses, the second is to burn the enemy's grain and grass, the third is to burn the army's baggage, the fourth is to burn the enemy's warehouse, and the fifth is to burn the enemy's grain road. Conditions must be met to carry out fire attacks, and fire attack equipment must be prepared at ordinary times. When you set a fire, you should look at the right time, and if you start a fire, you should choose a good day. The so-called time of day refers to the dry climate; The day refers to the time when the moon passes through the four star positions of "Kei", "Wall", "Wing" and "Zhen". Whenever the moon passes through the four constellations, it is a day of wind.

Whenever an attack is carried out by fire, it is necessary to flexibly and flexibly deploy troops to respond to the different changes caused by the five types of fire attacks. If you set fire to the enemy's camp headquarters, you must promptly send troops to respond from the outside. When the fire has been burned and the enemy is still calm, it is necessary to wait carefully and not to attack immediately. Wait for the fire to be strong, and then make a decision according to the situation, attack if you can, and stop if you can't. The fire can be set off from the outside, so you don't have to wait for the inside to respond, just set it on fire at the right time. Set fire from the upside, not attack from the downwind. The wind blows for a long time during the day, and it is easy for the wind to stop at night. The army must master these five fire attack methods, use them flexibly, and wait for the time and conditions to set fire before launching a fire attack.

The use of fire to assist the army's offensive is particularly effective, and the use of water to assist the army's offensive is bound to be strengthened. Water can divide and isolate enemy troops, but it cannot burn enemy supplies.

Whoever wins a battle and conquers land and cities, and fails to reward his deeds in time, will surely be in trouble. This kind of sentiment is called: "Feiliu". Therefore, a wise monarch should consider this issue carefully, and a virtuous general should take this issue seriously. Don't act if there is no benefit; If you are not sure of victory, do not use soldiers; Don't go to war until it's critical.

The king must not go to war out of a momentary anger, and the commander must not go to war out of a momentary anger. The use of troops in line with national interests should be stopped if it is not in the national interest. Anger can turn back into joy, and anger can turn high again. But when a nation perishes, it cannot be restored, and when a person dies, it cannot be reborn. Therefore, in dealing with war, a wise monarch should be cautious, and a virtuous general should be vigilant, which is the fundamental principle for stabilizing the country and preserving the army.

【Modern Interpretation】

The creation, development, and demise of anything is conditioned by objective conditions. The world is ever-changing, and the conditions for the survival and extinction of all kinds of things are also different, and people must comprehend it, use it, control it, and take advantage of the situation in order to achieve their own will. This is what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War: "There must be a cause for fire."

As a leader, before making a major decision, we must carefully analyze all kinds of objective conditions, find out feasible solutions, sum up all kinds of available conditions, and make serious preparations. If you are indecisive, you will inevitably lose your sovereignty and sigh.

Of course, for all walks of life, as long as you want to achieve a great career. Nothing less.
