Wujing Qishu (The Seven Military Classics) — the six besides the Sunzi武經七書
The six that remain when the Art of War of Sunzi is taken out of the seven military books the Song set as the texts for examining military officers. The Six Secret Teachings is sixty chapters of questions and answers in which King Wen and King Wu ask Taigong Wang, running from the governing of a state to chariots, cavalry, battle in the open and the crossing of water; the Three Strategies is three short books said to have been given to Zhang Liang by Huang Shigong; the Wei Liaozi is twenty-four chapters setting down in detail the military orders and the squads of five and ten around the time of Qin; the Wuzi is six chapters of Wu Qi's answers to Marquis Wu of Wei; the Methods of the Sima is five chapters handing down the military rites of before the Spring and Autumn period; and Questions and Replies with Li Weigong is three books in which Taizong of Tang and Li Jing go back and forth over the unorthodox and the orthodox, the empty and the full, the frontier peoples and the Han, and attack and defense. "Arms are an instrument of ill omen," "bring the enemy to you and do not be brought to him," and "a thousand chapters and ten thousand phrases do not go beyond that one phrase" all come from here. The remaining six streams of the military school, read after the Art of War, are gathered in one place.
Six books, 101 chapters, 376 paragraphs and 44,386 graphs have all been translated. The annotations a Wikisource editor added to the Wei Liaozi (35 <ref> items) and the variant markings ({{另}}) are not part of the source text and were cleared away, and the four chapters posted empty in the Wei Liaozi reading edition (Orders on the Files of Five, The Order on Divided Ground, The Order on Binding the Files, The Order on Arranging the Soldiers) were brought in from volumes 3 and 4 of the Siku Quanshu edition and filled in with punctuation added. One paragraph of The Twelve Points was in simplified graphs and was turned back with the converter (76 graphs). In the Questions and Replies with Li Weigong, one bundle of question and answer is made one paragraph, with the lines inside joined by line breaks. Of the Six Secret Teachings, only the two notes reading 「the military take this form」 in The Three Formations were kept as notes of the original. The graph counts of the original against the source text, and of the source text against the translation, are all the same.
