 "The Eastern military strategy differs from the Western by focusing more on asymmetric warfare and fooling of the enemy" 

 I deleted the sentence above in the introduction, because  Japanese samurais often fought one on one duels in a battle and it was part of the samurai culture.   
 The Art of War talks about the importance of deception the enemy, but does not emphasizes it too much. (Note fooling the enemy is a major part of any warfare. Read about the elaborate 
 deceptions before D-Day. Entire fake armies of tanks, planes, made out of balloons. Fake paratroopers dropped with Radios on D Day. etc. with Patton, one of the best WII generals commanding it. Deception is employed by any great strategist ) 

 Asymetric warfare is not particularly focused on when I read the Art of War. The statement above is biased. 

 As a general rule, Asymetric warfare is often used more by armies with less resource. i.e. Vietnam war, Japanese Kamikazes. In modern times, that may be true that Eastern strategy has relied more on that.  

  

  

  

 The part on Genghis Khan  

 The main strategy of Genghis Khan was not psychological terror.  

 In combat, the most common strategy for the mongols was to use feigned retreat to draw enemies to chosen strategic location. 

 In conquering cities, the most common strategy was to let refugees enter cities that they would conquer  with two primary goals: 

 1) primary goal of letting refugees deplete the cities' resource in case of a prolonged siege 
 2) primary goal was that the refugees spread the terror of fighting the mongols. the mongols usually offered the cities no slaugther only if they surrendered without fighting. 

 Most cities did not surrendered and the Mongols would not put their primary emphasis psychological terror. it was more of a supporting role.
