Flexibility in Formation-Sun Tzu
From World's Chinese Wiki
Flexibility in Formation - Sun Tzu
English: The ultimate skill in the deployment of troops is to ensure that it has no fixed or constant formation and disposition. Without ascertainable formations, even the most infiltrated and observant spy will not be able to probe and comprehend, and the wisest strategist will not be able to uncover your plans or plot against you. The victory gained as a result of adapting to the circumstances of the enemy will never be understood by the troops. Everyone may know the formation that I used to secure victory. However, no one will know the ways, methods and reasons behind how I went about creating that victory.
Modern: 所以部署兵队最高境界,是无任何形。无形,则深入我方的间谍刺探不到情报,敌方谋略者也想不出对策。运用多变战术引导众人取得胜利,众人也不了解如何取胜。人们知道我取得胜利的态势,可是不知我如何创造此态势。
Original: 故形兵之极,至于无形;无形,则深间不能窥,智者不能谋。因形而错胜于众,众不能知;人皆知我所以胜之形,而莫知吾所以制胜之形;
