Ok move like the wind: manuever quickly and be out of nowhere
Be compact as the forest: mask your numbers and move as one body

basically this has to do (in my opinion) with tricking the enemy...trick strategies to confuse the enemy....lure ur enemy in with bait to get a perfect chance to kill...

well..what's to answer. it is clear what it means, when you read it. and everyone applies it in practical daily things.
i have read the art of war. and you can learn something from it.

Then a more difficult one

as i said...
it's not good to be neither hasty nor lingering. you have to set your strategy speed to a best optimum between the two

That is correct but its more along the lines of Speed is not always the greatest strategy...nor is idleness... the longer you take to think up a strategy doesn't make that idea more well thought out then the quickest decision at the proper moment.
