12.3.14

senāmukhyaprakṛtipuruṣān vā bhūmyā hiraṇyena vā lobhayitvā sveṣu vikramayed apavāhayed vā //

The chief officers of the army may be induced by offering land and gold to fall against their own men and secede from the enemy (their king). If one of the sons of the commander-in-chief is living near or inside the fort, a spy may tell him: "You are the most worthy son; still you are neglected; why are you indifferent? Seize your position by force; otherwise the heir-apparent will destroy you."
