Adapting to the Nine Contingecies (Pien)

The Master said....

The art of using troops is this;
When the commader receives his orders from the ruler, assembles hi armies, and mobilizes the population for war, he should not make camp on difficult terrain; he should join with his allies on strategically vital intersections; he should not linger on cutoff terrain; he should have contingency plans on terrain vulnerable to ambush; and hhe should take the fight to the enemy on terrain from which there is no way out.
