To Be Victorious, an Army Must Be United
軍隊克敵制勝，關鍵在于人和。“師”即軍隊；“克”即克敵制勝；“和”指人和，即上下同心， 團結一致，相互協同——首先是指參戰部隊內部的協同，也指參戰部隊和非參戰部隊等全軍的協同乃至各方面力量的協同。其基本原理與“上下同欲者勝”和“欲謀勝敵，先謀人和”相通。今之所謂“團結起來力量大”，亦是此理。
An army must be united if it wants to conquer the enemy. Shi (師) means army, ke (克) means to overcome the enemy and be victorious, and he (和) means men and officers are united and are of one mind. Coordination and cooperation are needed not only within the combat forces, but also among all other military units and forces. Similar expressions include "triumph comes when leaders and followers share the same goal," and "to overcome the enemy one must first be united." The modern equivalent is "unity gives great strength."
