原文:不敵其力,而消其勢,兌下乾上之象。

Original Text: If you cannot match his strength, then eliminate his momentum, the image of Dui below & Qian above.

解析:兩軍對壘,不直接抗擊敵人的鋒芒,而是設法從根本上削弱它的氣勢,即用以柔克剛的手段制服敵人。

Analysis: When two armies confront each other, do not directly oppose the enemy’s vanguard, rather try to weaken their vigor via the number one basic, that is employing the use softness to conquer hardness method to subdue the enemy.
