二十四史谋略故事
Chen Chusheng
The great German poet Schiller once said: "As long as mankind exists, strategy and love will be the eternal themes." It is difficult to imagine that a literary giant who devoted his life to poetry would view strategy in this way. Such an evaluation is more likely to come from the mouth of the Roman consul Frontinus or Machiavelli, who is known for his power. Different from Westerners' extensive understanding of strategy, the Chinese have always been famous for their strategy. It can be said that strategy constitutes the main axis of Chinese culture. From the "Tao Te Ching" written by Lao Tzu, the master of social strategy, to "The Art of War" written by the military sage Sun Wu; from "Guan Zi" written by Guan Zhong, a dual-purpose economic and political talent, to the "Thirty-six Strategies" that are popular and can be used in battlefields and shopping malls. In the eyes of the Chinese people, strategy is more than just the way to win the battlefield and rejuvenate the country. It has become a historical experience and a far-sighted and complicated understanding of things. It can be the political power of keeping a low profile, the military strategy of strategizing, the wisdom of Bole who makes the best use of people, or the philosophy of life that allows one to settle down and survive. It is no exaggeration to say that strategies are everywhere in Chinese people's lives. In order to allow readers to better appreciate the wisdom and charm contained in Chinese-style strategy, we have specially selected more than a hundred suspenseful and thought-provoking historical stories from the Twenty-Four Histories, an encyclopedia of Chinese history, to illustrate and explain the summarized strategies involving military, politics, employment and life. We hope to use real historical cases to help readers better understand the value and use of strategies. In addition, we have added classic cases of the same type in ancient and modern times at home and abroad behind each strategy, along with nearly 200 precious and wonderful pictures to show you a world of Chinese strategies. Just like the British translated "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" as "a mirror that can help with administration," Chinese strategies are also the key to wisdom left by the sages, which can help us open doors of confusion in reality.
