04. Wait at ease for the enemy
Sun Tzu wrote these three maxims:
If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. (from Section One, "Laying Plans," Art of War.)
If the enemy is taking his ease, he can harass him; if well supplied with food, he can starve him out; if quietly encamped, he can force him to move. (from Section Six, "Weak Points and Strong," Art of War.)
To be near the goal while the enemy is still far from it, to wait at ease while the enemy is toiling and struggling, to be well-fed while the enemy is famished:--this is the art of husbanding one's strength. (from Section Seven, "Manuevering," Art of War.)
It's always an advantage to be one step ahead of your opponent, and it's a
benefit for you get to the site of battle ahead of him. But if speed is not your
gift, you can also simply force or entice him to come to you, where ever you
are. An opponent who must destroy you to get his reward will come after you
where ever you go, so cover hard ground that is unfamiliar to him. Lead him
through awkward and expensive situations. Keep evading him and force him to
spend himself up to reach you.
The commentators on Sun Tzu recommend that if you have a small force and your
enemy a strong force, encamp your men in rocky, divided terrain so that you
force the pursuer to break up his army. Thus, you create confusion in his
troops, and he loses the advantage of being able to fight you with a single,
massive charge.
