The Chinese Empire
The land of China was facing many problems in its life. Many was dying and many defeats where in every corner of China. Korea and the Southern Tribes where becoming an overwhelming power. We will stop this for once and for all though, we will not continue to be beat up apon, we shall prosper for it is out Manifest Destiny.
A man of 20 years of age has cam up to me one night. He told me he can be of some help in this war. He told me that he was very smart and learned many things from me. He said that I was his idol in destress. I was flattered and asked him how is it he can help. He told me he has written something, something he has started from back wen he was 10 years of age. Right when I was going to ask him what it was he had to leave and said he may come back tommorrow. And so I went to sleep and waited there wondering his name and what valuable thing he held inside of him, but I hoped he would come back the naxt day.
The next day I waited and saw no return of him. I continued to wait and another two days passed by. On the fourth day he came again.
Hello, I have been awaiting your presence, I never caught your name, what is it? I asked him.
He told me that he was from a small family called Sun. His name was Sun Tzu. I asked him what it was he had to present. He told me that he wrote a book, he called it the Art of War. I told him I wanted to see it. He gave it to me with no other word. I skimmed it and saw thirteen chapters. The names where;
Laying Plans
Waging War
Attack by Strategem
Disposition of Military Strength
Use of Energy
Weakness and Strength
Maneuvering
Variation of Tactics
On the March
Terrain
The Nine Varerities of Ground
Attack by fire
Employment of Secret Agents
He explained all thirteen chapters and I thought this was the best book ever made in the history of writing. It was in bamboo strips so I was unable to call it a real book though it was very very good writing. I read it 4 times in a matter of 4 weeks. I realized that I coudn't know the book better than that who wrote it so I called Sun Tzu to my palace once again.
I told him compliments of his talents and knowledge. I also told him that his great skill and knowledge should be put into good use. I gave him control of the whole Chinese Military to control on the field and train my other generals. I thought this would help our war effort alot, and it did. Many battles have been fought with Sun Tzu on our side and many were won.
ORDERS:
Increase army in Korea and try to use the same strategy as before but defensively.
If you have read the Sun Tz's Art of War then use some of his tactics if not then...
anyways, increase army
do trade with those who wanted it and continue with those stopped.
