CORRECTION: 1:29 - Napoleon III not Napoleon II

[@Indoor_Carrot]

Breaking the will to fight amongst the enemy. Force them to hunt me, they will play my game and play by MY rules. I will be close but still untouchable, NO MORE will I see suffering and pain.

[@chiyulater9752]

@Ivan Ricaña THAT'S THE ART OF WAR

[@westarrr]

I've read the Art of War twice, but I have to say, I love these examples!

[@martonk]

1:28 *Napoleon III.

[@Obtaineudaimonia]

Welcome once again to the third chapter of The Art of War. “It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.” If you could boil down this chapter into one sentence (you can’t), this quote would be it. Strength does not come purely from size but from strategy and unity. By defeating the enemy through strategic superiority you can win without fighting, forcing the enemy to surrender without resorting to arms. Until next time, Adam _ Contents 0:00 - Lesson 1: Capture Rather Than Destroy 1:00 - Lesson 2: Supreme Excellence 1:43 - Lesson 3: Don’t Besiege Walled Cities 2:35 - Lesson 4: Control Your Irritation 3:13 - Lesson 5: The Skilful Leader 4:03 - Lesson 6: Attacking By Stratagem 4:52 - Lesson 7: A Complete Wall 5:42 - Lesson 8: When To Fight 6:22 - Lesson 9: Handling Forces 6:56 - Lesson 10: The Power Of Spirit 7:35 - Lesson 11: Preparation 8:12 - Lesson 12: Resist Interference 8:51 - Lesson 13: Know Yourself (And The Enemy)

#9 Battle of Agincourt mistake - the men didn't carry the stakes to protect the archers, they hammered the stakes into the ground on the flanks to deter Calvary charges. The fighting men were in the center where the french were funneled.

[@beethao9380]

Sevenspent exactly. Cavs often went after defenseless archers. Was this the same battle where the cavs didnt see the stakes until the got too close?

[@yourztruly8255]

The stakes literally serve both those purposes literally protecting the archers by deterring cavalry charges

[@MCJonCRLKLLR]

Normal people: I know Kung Fu! Me: I know the art of war!

[@aki6704]

Normal ppl: I know how to fight Me: I can win a hundred battles and lay successful seiges on all parts of the globe without fighting

[@stormyprawn]

When you and your opponent both read Sun Tzu..... *Insert picture of 2 Spiderman meme* 👉 👈

9.57 - Going onto Battlefield 1 -- Feeling confident.. Thanks for such wonderful videos. Can't wait to watch the rest. Then look out world!

Great videos, really good at simplifying such important ideas.

[@Tracks777]

Great content

[@Nubgamer1212]

Wow, i love it. Great job, thank you for sharing! :) :)

[@danelo13]

#6 Wait. You can do that? Omg what a play

[@Loebachus]

Perfect!

[@marxel4444]

D-Day Rundtedt didnt know about the allied airforce and wanted the tanks far away Rommel,who knew first hand what the allied airforce can do wanted them close to the beach. When the Panzer-Lehr-Division was going towards Normandy they loss around 65% of their fighting strenght

Commenting for the algorithm

[@MichelleAckerStudios]

[@thisisbob1001]

You have interesting people.thanks.

[@swaraj_ballal8612]

how to make this kinds of slides?these editing it is really fascinating

[@christopherthrawn1333]

Excellent work Gentlemen here

[@quentinlenormand4122]

"...Napoleon the Second..." 1:29 WHAAAAT?

[@subhamaich6744]

9:37 Self belief without self knowledge is dangerous.

[@blackjack5293]

If criminals rush you on a home property trying to kidnap you, best defense, good smoke bombs, a shot gun, rush attack any assailants, fire at any one in your path, find a passage of escape, free yourself from bondage. Use stand my ground law to help your defense if captured, they got what they deserved if you get one. This is about your survival. Stay safe and trust no one!

[@benquinney2]

A winning formula

[@kookoolellikki8884]

Do you listen to Sabaton?

[@jamesjamero6583]

Yep. Why? Is it that I've song about that one text?

[@GeneralBlorp]

The BG music is atrociously reminiscent of '80s schlock

[@felixgutierrez993]

1:01 - 1:05 Julius Ceasar: *anger noises

[@edwardlecore141]

Why is the battle of Agincourt depicted has Henvy VIII Vs Conquistadors?

[@moho4857]

[@zachhare2986]

Are you sure the Australians didn't take that city before Lawrence?

[@ik5083]

It was Napoleon the third. The Boers won the first boer war.

The USA could learn a lot from Sun Tzu...

[@blingwraith6951]

Yeah but it's a lot harder to put that kind of theory into practice.

[@viorp6982]

1:35 Except if you are Poland.

[@Nutcase-n3o]

Viorp 40 to 1

[@RonJohn63]

9:44 But leaders *never* have "full knowledge".

[@SaturnVII]

RonJohn63 thats why theres an entire book on this instead of a single chapter. This comparison is for the sake of the argument.

[@ik5083]

It was Napoleon the third

[@alw6912]

Napoleon II?!

[@RonJohn63]

Sure, he was Napoleon's son. However, he died in 1832 at age 21. @Eudaimonia must have meant Napoleon III, who was Napoleon's nephew.

[@alw6912]

That's what I meant. Napoleon II was long dead at this moment. Napoleon III used III not II to honor his cousin and uncle (or find legitimacy in them).

[@RonJohn63]

This being the YT comment section, I couldn't know if you were shocked that "descendant Napoleons" existed.

[@Obtaineudaimonia]

You are correct, I was of course referring to Napoleon III. I've added a correction to the video description. Thanks for highlighting the error.

[@Evocatorum]

The background music is incredibly distracting... and not really in theme with the subject matter.

[@benquinney2]

Euphoria

[@TheManofthecross]

once again he did not forsee those who can become masters of siege warfare and know how to use it well both in open and accual siege battles. when a force is expert in this type of warfare then they know how to lunch assults smartly etc. having the tech advantage helps nicely in those cases. also he did not forsee the possibility of the mind of the troops and the doctrins especially ones that command to fight to the last man no matter the cost and to grind the foe down by prolonged war is one that he knows not of especially when they are those who have nothing to lose but there own lives and to hell with anything else. prepair to take losses no matter how big they are.

[@mollywantshugs5944]

Sun tzu’s point was that siege warfare is inefficient so it is generally better to not lay siege if you don’t have to. As for suicidally aggressive fighters, they are the exception not the rule.

[@stephenblackwell8399]

Explaing how those who loose battles and wars in hindsight is easy there are no way to fight any war with any manual because as many instances where the art of war would lead to victory there are most likely many defeats where people followed the art of war In truth a army with a plan is better than one who have none War is about winning the day cause for some that's all the time they have left Train your soldiers discipline them as needed and fairly Remember this lots of general where not thought of as inspirational not until there story was put to pen and paper If Germany would have won world war 2 we would be talking about he saved Christendom and defeated the evil communism and it's evil leader Stalin There is no right or wrong side in war only will to win We talk of Hitler's evil but never mention the horrible war crimes commented by the United States we carpet bomb civilian population centers in France Germany Japan which had no military importance other than to break the will of our enemies people War is horrible and if you had any chance of victory you have to out horrible your enemies I like the writing we call art of war but it's mainly misguided rhetoric [e-mail]

[@JCLeSinge]

Every training doctrine, the entire body of known strategy and the whole field of military history would tend to disagree with the assertion that "there is no manual of war". Tell that to every military school, officer's academy, and basic training course used by literally every army on Earth. I'm curious to hear of literally any army that met with any success whatsoever without some form of codified study of war.

[@mollywantshugs5944]

The thing is that commanders on both sides generally have strategy training. The winner is usually the one who made better use of those principles. Also, Sun tzu had decades of actual experience to see this stuff play out.
