Five dngerous faults which may affect a General:-
(a) Recklessness, which leads to destruction.
(b) Cowardice, which leads to capture.
(c) A hasty temper, which can be provoked by
insults.
(d) A delicacy of honour which is sensitive to
shame.
(d) Over solicitude for his men, which exposes
him to worry and trouble.
