Secrets of war

Hangzhou Adventurer's Guild
This request comes all the way from the guild in Marseilles. A certain soldier wants us to look into "the secrets of war passed through the Far East". You found the book, Three Kingdoms, in Chongqing, so I imagine you're competent enough for this job. You have any ideas who'd be familiar with these sort of things?

Tanka Poem 

Military Book Devoted to by Ts'ao Ts'ao
You're trying to find secrets of military strategy? You should look at the strategy book that Ts'ao Ts'ao was said to have followed by heart. Take the Battle of Guandu, for example. They say that the battle was decided by how well each general was familiar with those military strategies. I'm sure that official at the port has a copy of it, yes!

Do not Fight and Save Troops
Ts'ao Ts'ao wasn't the only reader of that strategy book. Many famous generals learned from it and utilized that knowledge in was and politics. The author's belief was that warring should not be a purpose unto itself, and that winning with damage kept to its utmost minimum was the ideal....
Because these beliefs live on in the hearts of the generals, these troubled times will surely come to an end.

Secrets are in the Strategy Book
You have discovered that a strategy book has been read by many military officers in this nation. The secrets that the requester seeks can be surely discovered in that book. The copy owned by the Chongqing Port Official is at the mansion in town. Have a look and then report to the guild.
