So much of Sun Tzu is common sense.

Don't fight with the sun in your eyes! Make sure your army has supplies! Be sneaky! Etc

Everything in war is very simple. But the simplest thing is difficult.

The target audience of The Art of War was not soldiers or even officers. It was nobles who would step out of their gilded halls and just fuck everything up with stupid decisions that no moderately experienced military man would even dream of.
