有声读物《孙子兵法》第78期:第十三章 用间(6)

 　　用间篇 NO.6：

　　昔殷之兴也，伊挚在夏；周之兴也，吕牙在殷。故明君贤将，能以上智为间者，必成大功。

　　此兵之要，三军之所恃而动也。

　　这句啥意思：

　　从前殷商的兴起，在于重用了在夏朝为臣的伊挚，他熟悉并了解夏朝的情况；

　　周朝的兴起，是由于周武王重用了了解商朝情况的吕牙。

　　所以，明智的国君，贤能的将帅，能用智慧高超的人充当间谍，就一定能建树大功。

　　这是用兵的关键，整个军队都要依靠间谍提供的敌情来决定军事行动。

　　英文这么说：

　　Of old, the rise of the Yin dynasty was due to I Chih who had served under the Hsia.

　　Likewise, the rise of the Chou dynasty was due to Lu Ya who had served under the Yin.

　　Hence it is only the enlightened ruler and the wise general who will use the highest intelligence of the army for purposes of spying and thereby¹ they achieve great results.

　　Spies are a most important element in water,because on them depends an army's ability to move.

　　点拨提高：
