     tldr, every point they are "invading" from is a valley surrounded by mountains, check it out on google maps

     Aren't those the only viable crossing points, considering that the mountains get in the way otherwise?

     Sure, but less fatal that trying to get over a mountain.

     I'm not sure his writings are really all that relevant.
     
     Yes, the whole point was to try to get through those valleys quickly and according to the current reported casualties of 12+ or 28+, it seems to have worked with not terrible losses.

     @Suiseiseki @IAMAL_PHARIUS "Viable"? It's a series of fatal funnels on a military scale. Sun Tzu advised moving thru such areas quickly, and not getting caught up in them under any circumstances.
