Interior lines
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interior lines is a strategy of warfare that is based on the concept that lines of movement within an area are shorter than those on the outside. Using the strategy of interior lines, a surrounded power could make a series of surprise attacks on the power that is encircling it, and move quickly enough and so unpredictably that the surrounding power would be forced to retreat.
