I didn't like how using Ibid. omits the titles of subsequent cited chapters. I'm using Chicago Style for this page & their latest ed. also says not to use Ibid. anymore but a shortened reference. I'm wondering if this helps?

Sun Wu (孫武; 544 BCE – 496 BCE),[1] commonly known as Sun Tzu (孫子, i.e. 'Master Sun'), was a Chinese military strategist who lived during the Spring and Autumn period. Traditionally believed to have served King Helü of Wu (r. 514 BCE–496 BCE), he is credited as the author of The Art of War (孫子兵法), one of the most influential treatises on the fundamental principles, stratagems, and logistics of war.[2]
