《尉缭子·武议》
对于被讨伐的国家，要使农民不离开他们的土地，商人不离开他们的店铺，官吏不离开他们的机关，因为用兵的目的，只在于惩罚祸首一人，所以能不必经过流血战斗就可得到天下的拥护。
兵之所加者，农不离其田业，贾不离其肆宅，士大夫不离其官府，由其武议在于一人，故兵不血刃而天下亲焉。
For the country being attacked, farmers should not leave their land, merchants should not leave their shops, and officials should not leave their offices, because the purpose of using troops is only to punish the ringleader, so it is possible to gain the support of the world without having to go through bloody battles.
