Time will not let you down who are studying -

Sun Wu is a Qi . He is proficient in military tactics and was summoned by King Wu Helu . The King of Wu wanted to take him as a general, so he deliberately tested him first.

The King of Wu told Sun Wu, "I have read all of your thirteen military tactics, it's very good, but can you give me actual training?" Sun Wu said, "Yes." The King of Wu said again, "Train 300 palace maids for me." Sun Wu knew that this was the King of Wu wanted to test himself, so he decided to show him a hand, so he agreed.

Sun Wu first divided these palace maids into two teams and stood up. He selected two of the concubines favored by the King of Wu to be the captains of these two teams. He ordered them to hold one weapon each, and then began to teach them the formation.

Sun Wu first asked, "Do you know that you should obey orders and obey commands in the army?" They all thought it was fun and replied with a laugh, "I know."

Then Sun Wu told them that the team should use the sound of drums as orders, advance or retreat, obey commands, and those who do not obey orders will beheaded! The exercise began. The first drum beat, and the palace maids not only did not follow the command, but instead covered their mouths and smiled. Sun Wu said: "The constraints are unclear and the orders are not fulfilled. This is the responsibility of the general." So he reiterated the military order several times. When the drum beats again, the palace maids still sway like the wind and swaying willows, making a mess. Sun Wuzi said furiously: "The discipline has been repeatedly declared, and the orders have been well known, but you still do not practice according to the military orders. This is your responsibility." So you want to kill the captains of the two teams.

When the King of Wu saw that he wanted to kill his beloved concubine, he was surprised and hurriedly stopped him and said, "This is my favorite woman, please don't kill them." Sun Wu said, " Military orders are like mountain . The general is in the army, and the monarch's orders are not accepted." So he beheaded and showed them to the public, and two other captains were selected.

Then the drum exercise was played again. The palace maids finally understood that this was not a joke, so they practiced seriously according to the orders, meeting the requirements of military strategy.

Sun Wu knew that these palace maids were used to being lazy and relying on the favor of the monarch, they did not take him seriously at all. He had to kill the chicken and show the monkey, and finally shocked them, allowing the military order to be implemented smoothly, and successfully completed the task assigned to him by the King of Wu.
