About this listen

Ever felt trapped between two powerful forces, forced to pick a side? Discover how an ancient Chinese state turned a no-win situation into a victory. In this episode, we explore a tale from the Warring States period where East Zhou, caught between the warring giants Qin and Han, uses cunning strategy to avoid destruction. Learn how they eliminated the ‘pick a side’ dilemma and how you can apply this 2500-year-old wisdom to modern-day conflicts, whether at work or in personal life.

Note: This episode is adapted from the article "Qin Borrows a Passage through East Zhou to Attack Han" in Strategies of the Warring States.
