Sun Tzu presents his warfare manual script to emperor Wu while emperor is hanging out with his beautiful concubines.
Emperor Wu: Can girls be trained, based on it?
Sun Tzu : Yes!
Emperor Wu: Summon 180 palace girls and were given arms for training.
Sun Tzu : Divided them into two groups, each group led by the "Emperor" favorite concubine.
Sun Tzu : Do you all know your front, left, right and rear position; the girls replied...Yes!
Sun Tzu : Do as I command and look forward when I say front
To the left when I say Left
To the right when I say Right
To the back when I say Rear
Those who disobey my orders will be punished, is that clear?
Sun Tzu : Listen carefully and do as I command: Right
The girls giggled, paid no attention and failed to follow orders.
Sun Tzu : Failure to give orders which the troops cannot remember by heart, is the commander fault.
Sun Tzu : I will now explain the commands once more:
Look forward when I say front
To the left when I say left
To the right when I say right
and to the back when I say rear -- is that clear?
Sun Tzu : Get ready and make no mistakes this time: Left
Again the "girls" paid no attention and failed to follow orders.
Sun Tzu : Failure to give clear orders and instructions is the commander's fault. But after the commander has clearly given instructions and yet orders failed to be followed. The troops and leaders are to be blamed, if they choose not to obey.
Sun Tzu : Execute those who disobey.
The troops panic and were hysterical at this stage and the "Emperor" intervene to prevent losing his favorite concubines.
Sun Tzu : Since I have been given the command. I am disciplining my troops, there must be no interference.
Sun Tzu : Executed the troops leaders in public.
And appoint two new replacement leaders. This time, when the orders were given, the troops marched to the beat of the drums and none dare to ignore any orders.
