To lure the tiger out of the mountains
东汉末年，军阀并起，各霸一方。孙策年仅十七岁，却年少有为，势力逐渐强大。

公元199年，孙策欲向北推进，夺取江北卢江郡。卢江易守难攻，而且占据卢江的

军阀刘勋势力强大，野心勃勃。于是孙策想出了一条妙计。 jūnf| Liú Xūn shìlì qi|ngd{, yĕxīnbóbó. Yúshì Sūn Cè xiăng chū le yì tiáo miàojì.
军阀刘勋，极其贪财，孙策便派人给他送去一份厚礼，并在信中把刘勋大肆吹捧一番，

还以弱者的身份向刘勋求救，请其降服上缭。刘勋万分得意。上缭一带，十分富庶，

English Translation
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, warlords possessed many parts of the land. Sun Ce was only 17 years old, but young and
promising. He followed in his father's footsteps and his power began to grow. In AD 199, Sun Ce wanted to advance further and managed to occupy Lu Jiang county in Jiangbei. Liu Xun was the ambitious and powerful warlord of Lu Jiang county and so in order to neutralize him Sun Ce organized a Coup. Sun Ce knew that Liu Xun was extremely greedy and so sent him a precious gift with a letter praising his achievements and asking for him to kindly surrender Jiangxi. After receiving the gift and reading the letter Liu Xun decided to banish Sun Ce from his kingdom once and for all and ordered his army to attack. On seeing the soldiers readying for attack Sun Ce reportedly said \"The tiger has come out, and we will now occupy Lu Jiang.\" And Lo and behold they did. Now this phrase is used to mean luring or manipulating others into a position of weakness which can then be exploited. Example
他使用调虎离山之计打赢了这场战争。
Tā shĭyòng diàohŭlíshān zhī jì dă yíng le zhè chăng zh{nzhēng.
He used the way of luring the tiger out of the mountains to win the war.
