What is the difference between secretly crossing Chen Cang and striking the east and west?

There are similarities and differences between "Secretly Crossing Chencang" and "Striking the West in the East", and the similarities are:

Both are bluffs, creating an illusion to confuse the enemy, and under the cover of the illusion, take real action.

The differences are:

"Secretly crossing Chen Cang" is to take two actions at the same time, ostensibly taking an action that is not harmful to the enemy or taking an action that makes the enemy feel stupid, such as "Ming Xiu Plank Road", in order to numb the enemy; Secretly carry out a major operation to strike at the enemy or expand our side, such as Han Xin's "secret crossing of Chencang"; "Striking at the West with Sound from the East" is a strike action, with two targets, both true and false, deliberately leading the enemy away. If the role and operation methods of the two schemes are confused, it will lead to disasters, such as Jiang Wei made the "secret crossing of Chen Cang" into "striking the east and attacking the west", and the "striking the east and attacking the west" was recognized by Deng Ai, as a result, Deng Ai occupied the position first, waited for work, and gave Jiang Wei a head-on blow, causing Jiang Wei to be defeated.

The former emphasizes a "dark", the latter is a "sound", obviously the former is secret, and the latter has a voice;

The former is "crossing" and the latter is "attacking", the former does not state whether to attack or not, while the latter's intention is clearly to attack;

The former is just to cross and walk through a spatial location, and has no sense of direction, while the latter has a clear direction of east and west.

The former has a bit of a pejorative flavor and the latter is a neutral word.

Difference: Secretly crossing Chen Cang, pawning out "Historical Records, Volume 8, Gaozu Benji". After Han Xin ascended the altar to worship the general, he would send troops to attack Xiang Yu, and on the surface he openly sent people to call for the construction of plank roads, but secretly Chen Cang sent troops to pacify Sanqin.

The sound of the east and the west, from "Huainanzi Military Training" and Gao Ming. It has long been known to military strategists of all generations, and it is necessary to fully estimate the enemy's situation when using it. There is one method, but there are endless variations.

These are two separate schemes, which are somewhat different.

Dark crossing (not degree) Chen Cang.

Refers to confusing the enemy from the front and making a surprise attack from the flanks. It is also a metaphor for activities carried out in secret.

Give the dummy. It is the momentum to attack the east, but it is actually attacking the west. It is a tactic that makes the opponent have the illusion of winning by surprise.

It can be said that most of the thirty-six strategies are means to confuse the enemy.

But one is to be quiet.

One is to take action.

Secretly crossing Chen Cang. It's doing an irrelevant thing on the surface.

Secretly do the real thing.

Then take a surprise attack.

Striking is doing the same thing, but directing you to pay attention in the other direction.

Distract your opponent.

When preparing. Secretly crossing Chen Cang.

When in action. Give the dummy.
