故事全文
Full Story

Liou Bang knew that Siang Yu was suspicious of him. So after he brought his troops into Hanzhong (city in Shaanxi), he burned the walkway which connected Hanzhong (city in Shaanxi) with the outside world. This way, Liou Bang not only prevented others from invading Hanzhong (city in Shaanxi), but he also hoped to gain Siang Yu's trust by showing Siang Yu that he could not return to Guan Jhong anymore. After resting for a while, Liou Bang assembled his troops and launched an attack on Siang Yu. First, he sent a crew to repair the burned down walkway to catch the attention of Jhang Han, a general of Siang Yu, and it worked. In response, Jhang Han sent his main troops to block the exit of the walkway, hoping to ambush Liou Bang. However, a local hunter helped Liou Bang and his troops out of Hanzhong (city in Shaanxi) and into Chen Cang through another small trail. Hearing the news, Jhang Han immediately raced back to Chen Cang with his army. But he lost the battle there as well. Liou Bang ended up occupying Chen Cang, and a big part of Jhang Han's army. Strategy 8: Secretly March to Chen Cang This is similar to the strategy of "Feint in the east and attack in the west." But whereas the other strategy was focused on hiding the actual target, this strategy was focused on hiding the actual route of attack. Openly reveal the deceptive route in order to protect the actual route of attack.
