中国古诗词翻译成英文《孙子兵法---势篇》孙子曰：凡治众如治寡，分数是也;斗众如斗寡，形名是也;三军之众，可使必受敌而无败者，奇正是也;兵之所加，如以碫击卵者，虚实是也。凡战者，以正合，以奇胜。故善出奇者，无穷如天地，不竭如江河。终而复始，日月是也。死而复生，四时是也。声不过五，五声之变，不可胜听也;色不过五，五色之变，不可胜观也;味不过五，五味之变，不可胜尝也;战势不过奇正，奇正之变，不可胜穷也。奇正相生，如循环之无端，孰能穷之?激水之疾，至于漂石者，势也;鸷鸟之疾，至于毁折者，节也。故善战者，其势险，其节短。势如彍弩，节如发机。纷纷纭纭，斗乱而不可乱也;浑浑沌沌，形圆而不可败也。乱生于治，怯生于勇，弱生于强。治乱，数也;勇怯，势也;强弱，形也。故善动敌者，形之，敌必从之;予之，敌必取之。以利动之，以卒待之。故善战者，求之于势，不责于人，故能择人而任势。任势者，其战人也，如转木石。木石之性，安则静，危则动，方则止，圆则行。故善战人之势，如转圆石于千仞之山者，势也。OnMilitarySituationSunWUSunZisays:Tomanagealargearmyisthesameinprincipleastomanageasmallone.Itisamatteroforganization.Todirectalargearmyinwaristhesameinprincipleastodirectasmallone.Itisamatterofunifiedcommandandorder.Thewholearmymaysufferfromanall-outattackfromtheenemybutdoesnotsustainadefeat.Thisisbecauseextraordinaryandordinaryforcesareskillfullyoperated.Thearmymaydealtheenemyaheavyblowasagrindstonecrushesanegg.Thisisanexampleofbeatingtheweakwiththestrong.Itisageneralruleinwarthattheordinaryforceisusedtoengageandtheextraordinaryforcetowinvictory.Thewarcraftsofacommanderskilledinusingextraordinaryforcetowinvictoryareasinexhaustibleasboundlessheavenandearthorasendlessasflowofrunningrivers.Althoughtheyhavecometoanend,theycanstartagainlikethemotionofthesunandthemoon.Althoughtheyhavediedaway,theycanberebornlikethechangingofthefourseasonsofayear.Therearenomorethanfivemusicalnotes,buttherecombinationwouldmakemoremelodiesthancanbeeverheard.Therearenomorethanfivepigments,buttheirmixturewouldproducemorecoloursthancanbeeverseen.Therearenomorethanfivecardinaltastesbuttheblendingofthemwouldyieldmoreflavoursthancanbeevertasted.Therearenomorethantwokindsoftroops—ordinaryandextraordinary,buttheskillfuloperationofthemwillleadtoinfiniteresultsjustasarollingcirclehasnoends.Whocanexhaustthepossibilityoftheircombinations?Itisthemomentumofthetorrentialwaterthatmovesboulders.Itisinquicktempothatahawkkillstheprey.Thoseskilledintheartofwarcancreateaposturethatpossessesanirresistiblemomentumandcanattacktheenemyinatimelyandquicktempo.Thepostureislikeafully-dra
