The Siege Strategy

Overview

During the Warring States period, two brilliant strategists, Pang Juan and Sun Bin, trained under the same master. But jealousy drove Pang Juan to betray Sun Bin, leaving him crippled. Years later, as war raged across ancient China, Sun Bin rose again— not as a warrior, but as a mastermind of strategy. With the ingenious plan known as “Besiege Wei to Rescue Zhao,” he outwits his former rival not once but twice. Can intelligence and patience triumph over ambition and brute force?
