The art of the indirect approach can only be mastered, and its full scope appreciated, by study of and reflection upon the whole history of war.

The first is that, in face of the overwhelming evidence of history, no general is justified in launching his troops to a direct attack upon an enemy firmly in position. The second, that instead of seeking to upset the enemy's equilibrium by one's attack, it must be upset before a real attack is, or can be successfully launched.
