谋攻第三 | 目的

夫用兵之法,
全国为上,破国次之;
全军为上,破军次之;
全旅为上,破旅次之;
全卒为上,破卒次之;
全伍为上,破伍次之。

In the practical art of war, the best thing of all is to take the enemy's country whole and intact; to shatter and destroy it is not so good. So, too, it is better to recapture an army entire than to destroy it, to capture a regiment, a detachment or a company entire than to destroy them.
