Fabian strategy

The Fabian Strategy is a military strategy that says it's better to avoid a direct fight with a stronger enemy, and instead wear them down slowly over time. To do this, the Fabian Strategy suggests avoiding big and direct battles, and instead slowly weakening the enemy with smaller battles, guerilla attacks, and by wearing down the enemy's strength. This way, you can slowly take away the enemy's power and resources until you are able to fight them directly.
