Idiom that means surrounded on all sides with no allies. Tatic used by Marshall Han Xin of Han Kingdom against Xiang Yu of Chu.
Editor: this is borderline encyclopedic, but I am partial to that piece myself (and it's so famous it's nearly an idiom)
Diff:
# 十面埋伏 十面埋伏 [shi2 mian4 mai2 fu2] /Ambush from 10 sides/
+ 十面埋伏 十面埋伏 [shi2 mian4 mai2 fu2] /Ambush from ten sides (pipa solo piece)/House of Flying Daggers (2004 movie by Zhang Yimou 張藝謀|张艺谋[Zhang1 Yi4 mou2])/
