Definition
游击战 is a military term meaning 'guerrilla warfare' — a strategy of small, mobile, surprise attacks by irregular forces against a larger, conventional army. The concept is historically significant in Chinese history, especially during the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Chinese Civil War, where it was a key tactic of the Communist forces. You'll also encounter it in metaphorical or historical discussions outside strict military contexts.
