zhī jǐ zhī bǐ ,  bǎi zhàn bǎi shèng
 知 己  知  彼, 百 战 百 胜

Know the enemy, know yourself, and in every battle you will be victorious.

解释 ( paraphrase )
知道自己的情况也知道对方的情况,哪怕一百次作战也能取得一百次胜利。
这条谚语告诉我们:既要了解自己又要了解对方,发挥自己的长处,攻击对方的短处,这样才能有把握取得胜利。

This proverb advises: Know both yourself and your opponent in order to enhance your strong points and attack his weak points. That is the secret of victory.

彼 (bǐ) : 指对方(敌方)
             The other party ( here : one's opponent ).

同义词 ( synonym )                                                                                                     知己知彼,百战不殆

造句  ( example )                                                                                                       只有了解掌握河势所要发生变化,坚持“以防为主,防重于抢,抢早抢小”的抢护原则,才能够做到知己知彼,百战百胜。
