To tread down the sword is a principle often used in strategy. First, in large scale strategy, when the
enemy first discharges bows and guns and then attacks it is difficult for us to attack if we are busy loading
powder into our guns or notching our arrows. The spirit is to attack quickly while the enemy is still shooting
with bows or guns. The spirit is to win by treading down as we receive the enemy’s attack.
In single combat, we cannot get a decisive victory by cutting, with a tee−dum tee−dum feeling, in the
wake of the enemy’s attacking long sword. We must defeat him at the start of his attack, in the spirit of
treading him down with the feet, so that he cannot rise again to the attack.
Treading does not simply mean treading with the feet. Tread with the body, tread with the spirit, and, of
course, tread and cut with the long sword. You must achieve the spirit of not allowing the enemy to attack a
second time. This is the spirit of forestalling in every sense. Once at the enemy, you should not aspire just to
strike him, but to cling after the attack. You must study this deeply.
