Winning Stratagems

For when you already hold the advantage — how to press a strong hand without wasting it.

1 瞞天過海 Mán tiān guò hǎi Deceive the Heavens to Cross the Sea Hide a bold move inside the utterly routine. What people see every day, they stop seeing. 2 圍魏救趙 Wéi Wèi jiù Zhào Besiege Wei to Rescue Zhao Don't fight where the enemy is strong. Threaten what they can't afford to leave undefended, and they'll come to you. 3 借刀殺人 Jiè dāo shā rén Kill with a Borrowed Knife Let someone else do your dirty work. Their hand swings the blade; your fingerprints are nowhere. 4 以逸待勞 Yǐ yì dài láo Wait at Leisure While the Enemy Labors Let the other side exhaust themselves rushing to you. Arrive rested to a fight they're too tired to win. 5 趁火打劫 Chèn huǒ dǎ jié Loot a Burning House When a rival is already on fire with troubles, that's the moment to move — not out of kindness. 6 聲東擊西 Shēng dōng jī xī Make a Sound in the East, Strike in the West Point everyone's attention one way, then hit from the other. Surprise is just misdirected attention.
