兵勢篇 NO.4:
紛紛紜紜,斗亂而不可亂;
渾渾沌沌,形圓而不可敗。
亂生于治,怯生于勇,弱生于強。
治亂,數(shù)也;勇怯,勢也;強弱,形也。
這句啥意思:
湍旗紛紛,人馬紜紜,雙方混戰(zhàn),戰(zhàn)場上事態(tài)萬端,但自己的指揮、組織、陣腳不能亂;
混混沌噸,迷迷蒙蒙,兩軍攪作一團,但勝利在我把握之中。
雙方交戰(zhàn),一方之亂,是因為對方治軍更嚴整:一方怯懦,是因為對方更勇敢;一方弱小,是因為對方更強大。
軍隊治理有序或者混亂,在于其組織編制;士兵勇敢或者膽怯,在于部隊所營造的態(tài)勢和聲勢;軍力強大或者弱小,在于部隊日常訓練所造就的內(nèi)在實力。
英文這么說:
Amid the turmoil and tumult of battle, there may be seeming disorder and yet no realdisorder at all;
amid confusion and chaos, your array may be without head or tail, yet it will be proof againstdefeat.
Simulated disorder postulates perfect discipline,simulated fear postulates courage; simulatedweakness postulates strength.
Hiding order beneath the cloak of disorder is simply a question of subdivision; concealingcourage under a show of timidity presupposes a fund of latent energy;masking strength withweakness is to be effected
by tactical dispositions.
《“亂生于治,怯生于勇,弱生于強”的哲理分析》
從該句的論斷中國可以看到戰(zhàn)爭中有無數(shù)矛盾的范疇,且這些矛盾是相互依存、相互轉(zhuǎn)化的。認為:亂與治、怯與勇、弱與強是互相對立的,并且在一定條件下,治可以轉(zhuǎn)化為亂,勇可以轉(zhuǎn)化為怯,強可以轉(zhuǎn)化為弱。
