Reaching Battlefield Earlier-Sun Tzu

From World's Chinese Wiki

Reaching Battlefield Earlier - Sun Tzu

English: Thus, advance by using indirect routes, and lure the enemy by offering gains as bait. As such, while you may set off later than your enemy but you will be able to arrive earlier than him. The one who knows how to do this understands the use of direct and indirect strategies.

Modern: 用迂回的道路前进，并用利来引诱敌人，这样一来即使比敌人晚出发，也还能先到达战场。这就是懂得弯路和直路的道理。

Original: 故迂其途，而诱之以利，后人发，先人至，此知迂直之计者也。
