Chapter 307 Yu Shao, This is the chess piece that will kill you (two in one)
the next day.
The team competition is finally about to begin.
Today's match is between North Korea and South Korea and Japan, but the Chinese team players still have to go to the review room to watch and review the game and prepare for tomorrow's game. After all, knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in a hundred battles.
Although I have studied the chess records of Japanese and Korean chess players before, those records are from a while ago and cannot fully represent the current level of the chess players.
Yu Shao arrived at the seminar room arranged by the hotel for the Chinese team early in the morning. When he pushed open the door and walked into the seminar room, he saw that the seminar room was already packed with people.
In addition to Su Yiming and other three, Zheng Qin, Wu Zhixuan, Xu Zijin and others who came to Seoul were also in the seminar room. Yu Shao was the last to arrive.
"Yu Shao, you're here?"
A male chess player in his twenties greeted Yu Shao and joked, "Thanks to you, when I came to the seminar room today, everyone looked at me strangely along the way."
"Although many people have opinions, they didn't say too much and kept their emotions to themselves."
At this time, a man in his thirties wearing a suit sighed and said, "I can speak a little Japanese. I met a Japanese chess player on my way to the seminar room just now. I want to apologize for you."
"He said I don't need to apologize on your behalf because you are indeed capable, but if you lose the next game, you will lose face and he will definitely laugh out loud..."
"It's obvious that he's so angry that he won't listen to an apology. The others probably think the same way, so they suppress their emotions and want to see the truth in the game."
The man was somewhat helpless and said, "If you lose... the suppressed emotions of those people will probably be vented instantly. You are putting yourself on the fire, Yu Shao, you will be under a lot of pressure."
“Actually, I think it’s fine.”
The young chess player shook his head and said, "Even this year, Miyamoto Shun and Shin Seung-hyun didn't take our Chinese team seriously. They only had eyes for each other. We should vent our anger."
"What if I lose?"
The man frowned and asked.
"I have already told Chairman Ma about this."
As Yu Shao spoke, he walked towards Su Yiming. Soon he came to the empty chair opposite Su Yiming, pulled it out and sat down.
Have you told Chairman Ma? Both the man and the young man were a little surprised and couldn't help turning their heads to look at Ma Zhengyu.
"Alright, alright, all of you should stop talking."
Ma Zhengyu shook his head and said, "Anyway, let's not talk about this anymore. The more you talk about it, the more pressure it will put on us."
After hearing Ma Zhengyu's words, the two stopped talking, thinking that if they continued talking, it would only put more pressure on Yu Shao.
Seeing Yu Shao sitting opposite him, Su Yiming looked at Yu Shao opposite him and finally said nothing.
Yu Shao cast his eyes towards the TV screen. At this moment, there was only an empty chessboard on the screen. The game had not started yet.
"I really didn't expect that Japan and South Korea would face off in the first game. It should be very interesting."
A slim female chess player in her thirties looked at the TV screen and said, "Last year, North Korea and South Korea lost with their main general and four generals, right?"
"Well, even though they lost, they played those two games very well."
A male chess player nodded and said, "Especially Pei Youyan. It's beyond my expectation that a female chess player can play so well."
Hearing this, all the female chess players in the discussion room looked at him, including Xu Zijin and Wu Zhixuan. The two of them finally stood together to face the outside world.
The male chess player immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly raised his hands in surrender: "My my! My crimes are heinous! I cannot even list them all!"
Seeing this, the other male chess players couldn't help but smile. After this little episode, the atmosphere in the seminar room suddenly became a lot more relaxed.
"Not only the match between Lee Jun Hyuk and Toyama Xun, but also the match between Vice General Park Ji Chang and Fujiwara Terajima is also very interesting."
Someone stroked his chin and said, "Fujiwara Terashima seems to be in very good shape this year, even defeating Ōzawa Seri, but Park Ji-chang is also in good shape this year, having made it to the Korean Meijin title match and is making a push for the Tianyuan title."
"The third generals, Jin Chaoen and Oda Takeshi, the fourth generals, Bae Yuyan and Murakami Shunichi, the fifth generals, Shen Xuze and Onishi Jingchuan, none of them are ordinary people..."
After saying this, he couldn't help but sigh: "This is simply a battle among many heroes, and I don't know who will win in the end."
After a while, when the image of a hand holding a black piece and placing it on the chessboard appeared on the screen of the first TV, everyone's expressions became more focused.
"Start guessing!"
Soon, both sides finished guessing who would go first.
The main game will be played by Lee Jun-hyuk with black and Toyama Xun with white. The other four tables will rotate black and white. For example, at table two, Fujiwara Terajima will play black and Park Ji-chang will play white.
The game has begun.
The rules of the team competition are that each side has two hours, with a one-minute countdown. Although the time is not too short, it is not too long either. Therefore, in the first few moves of the five games, both the black and white sides made moves very quickly.
"Li Junhe made a mistake. Facing Dongshan Xun's two consecutive stars, Li Junhe did not defend the Wuyou corner, but directly hung on the star position in the upper left corner. He was coming with great momentum."
Wu Shuheng looked at the chess game that was being played synchronously on the TV screen and said thoughtfully, "It seems that Li Junhe is going to take the lead in making trouble."
"Sure."
Someone said with a smile: "As the most talented chess player in North and South Korea in recent years, Lee Jun Hyuk must have been very unwilling to lose to Dongshan Xun last year, and of course he wants to get back at the score this year."
Hearing this, Qin Lang glanced at the chess game between Dongshan Xun and Li Junhe, then moved his gaze back to the three-general battle between Jin Chaoen and Oda Takeshi.
Substitutions are not allowed in the China-Japan-Korea team competition, which means that his opponent tomorrow will definitely be Jin Chaoen. Compared to the main player battle, he is more concerned about Jin Chaoen, his opponent tomorrow.
Looking at this game of chess, Qin Lang couldn't help but think of what Miyamoto Shun said at the opening ceremony of the team competition -
"I think the only two people worth watching out for in the Chinese team are Yu Shao and Su Yiming..."
Thinking of this, Qin Lang couldn't help but clench his fists, looking at the chessboard, his expression suddenly became more focused.
The same goes for Le Haoqiang and Gu Chuan. They are more concerned about the battle between four generals and five generals. Even if the battle between the main generals and the deputy generals is exciting, it has nothing to do with them for the time being.
In the seminar room, the male players were obviously more concerned about the main general battle, while the female players including Xu Zijin and Wu Zhixuan were more concerned about the four-general battle. After all, Bae Yoo-yeon was the only female player in this team competition.
“Her judgment is quick and accurate, and she has a very good overall view.”
Xu Zijin watched this four-general battle with an expression of unprecedented concentration: "She is stronger than I thought. Her moves are somewhat similar to those of Teacher An Hongshi!"
At this moment, on the TV screen, Pei Youyan fell again with the white piece between her legs.
Seeing this move, the expressions of all the people who were watching the four-general battle changed.
"Dig here?"
Wu Zhixuan was shocked: "Pei Youyan's move was not gentle at all, it was extremely strong, she actually started to attack Heizi directly!"
Xu Zijin's expression also changed slightly. This move of chess was completely beyond her expectations. She didn't realize that the white piece had such a ruthless move here!
Le Haoqiang's expression also became extremely solemn. Although he saw this move, he was still thinking about the pros and cons. He never expected that Pei Youyan would make this move without hesitation!
…
…
At this time, inside the competition venue.
"dig?"
Seeing Pei Youyan's move, Murakami Shunichi, who had a short haircut and looked extremely strong, was startled in his heart. Although his expression remained calm, he couldn't help but look up at Pei Youyan opposite him.
Pei Youyan was also looking at Murakami Shunichi at this time. There was no trace of gentleness on her delicate face. Instead, there was astonishing coldness, and even a hint of murderous intent.
"After not seeing her for a year, she has indeed become stronger..."
Murakami Shunichi took a deep breath, looked at the chessboard, and calculated the subsequent changes in the game. His expression gradually became solemn: "Although I am defeated, I must not take it lightly!"
"Even though she is just a woman, she has an amazing fighting spirit that is no less than that of a man!"
Shunichi Murakami finally took the chess piece out of the chess box and put it down quickly!
"But as a man, I will never be knocked down by a woman!"
Pei Youyan stared at the chessboard, and after seeing where Murakami Shunichi placed his piece, she reached into the chess box again with a somewhat cold expression.
“I lost last year, but I won’t lose again this year!”
"I'm going to win this round!"
"I want everyone to know that even though I am a woman, I can play chess that is beyond the reach of men!"
Pei Youyan picked up the chess piece and moved it quickly!
Da! Fourteen columns and twelve rows, jump!
At this time, on the other side, table number five.
Ohnishi Jingchuan sat upright, looking at the chessboard in front of him, judging the situation of the game.
"I forced him into a desperate situation on the left, but... he seemed to do it on purpose!"
Thinking of this, Da Xi Jingchuan couldn't help but look at Shen Zexu opposite him. At this time, Shen Zexu was also staring at him closely, with sharp and fierce eyes!
The two people's eyes suddenly met and collided in mid-air! "Think deeply, if I really kill this piece of white, this piece of white will be borrowed a lot!"
Onishi Jingchuan looked at Shen Zexu without avoiding, and couldn't help but think of the defeat in the team competition last year. His eyes were firm and there was a hint of arrogance! "In the team competition last year, I was badly defeated and Dalong was captured by him. Today--"
"It's time for revenge!"
"I want everyone to open their eyes and take a good look at what Ohnishi Jingchuan's Go is!"
Da Xi Jingchuan took out the chess piece again and dropped it quickly! Da! Eight columns and twelve rows, stab! Seeing Da Xi Jingchuan finally make a move, Shen Zexu finally lowered his head and looked at the chessboard. After seeing the position of Da Xi Jingchuan's move, Shen Zexu was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed slightly!
"He abandoned his pawn?!"
…
…
Inside the seminar room.
"At table number five, Shen Zexu's situation is somewhat unfavorable. Da Xi Jingchuan sacrificed a piece to allow his big dragon to escape, while still maintaining the suppression of Shen Zexu's black pieces!"
Everyone looked at the chessboard and was shocked: "This sacrifice clearly saw through Shen Zexu's intention to sacrifice a big piece, and even used the same trick against Shen Zexu!"
Zheng Qin looked at the chessboard, frowned and said, "Last year, Daxi Jingchuan suffered a crushing defeat. The big dragon was killed and the whole game was shattered. But this year... they took the initiative first!"
Gu Chuan looked at the TV screen, his eyelids twitched, his expression looked a little ugly, and he felt a huge pressure coming towards him.
"The situation at table number four is also very delicate. From a practical point of view, Pei Youyan is slightly at a disadvantage, but Murakami Shunichi is also very nervous. If they fight, it is still unknown who will win!"
At this time, someone else spoke up.
Hearing this, everyone quickly looked towards the chess game on the fourth table. Seeing the black and white pieces tightly entangled on the board, they suddenly felt a little scared.
This game of chess has only been going on for more than fifty moves, but it has already become a mess. The fighting between the two sides is so chaotic and complicated that it is dazzling!
Everyone gathered around the chessboard, talking about the game. Yu Shao looked at the chess games, seeming to be thinking about something.
"In this game of three generals fighting, North Korea and South Korea seem to have the upper hand, but the difference is not big, and the outcome is still unpredictable."
"In this game of the deputy general battle, both sides formed a fine chess pattern. It seems that both sides intend to prolong the battle line and decide the victory with the official moves. It is still unclear what will happen."
"As for the battle between the main generals..."
Everyone turned to look at the game between Dongshan Xun and Li Junhe with serious eyes.
"Li Junhe is coming with great momentum, and every move he makes is aggressive, but every move of Dongshan Xun is also impeccable!"
"At this point, Toyama Xun's white pieces have gained a lot, but the black pieces have also formed a pattern in the center. Neither side can grasp the situation, and the fight is evenly matched!"
At this moment, on the TV screen, Li Junhe fell again with the black piece in his arms.
Three columns and three rows, sharp!
"tip?"
Seeing this move, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then a look of astonishment appeared on their faces.
"Dongshan Xun's move before was so sharp that the black pieces could not afford to respond. It seemed that the black pieces only had two moves: squeezing and standing -"
"If the white piece stands upright, if you think about it carefully, it seems that if the black piece's tip is exchanged with the white piece's upright, the white piece will gain a little advantage."
"If the black pieces squeeze, and Toyama Kaoru sticks in, and if the white pieces in the upper left corner become stronger, then it will be more helpful to destroy the black pieces' formation in the upper right corner."
Wu Shuheng was shocked and said, "So... Li Junhe took this into consideration and actually underestimated these two black pieces that he should not underestimate, and was ready to abandon them at any time!"
At this time, Zheng Qin also looked serious and spoke slowly, commenting: "This move was extremely calm."
On the TV screen, the white piece finally landed.
Five columns and three rows, sharp!
The black spot soon followed closely and fell again.
Six columns and four rows, stick!
On the TV screen, black and white pieces fell alternately and began to fight in the upper right corner. For a moment, everyone's attention was attracted by this chess game, and Yu Shao and Su Yiming were no exception.
"Dongshan Xun's fighting spirit has also risen!"
Someone couldn't help but take a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "A fierce battle is about to break out!"
On the chessboard, murderous intent finally arises! ...
…
Inside the competition venue.
"Up to the 50th move, the board was still evenly matched, but at this point, Black not only gained external momentum, but also had a vivid overall configuration..."
Dongshan Xun looked at the chessboard in front of him calmly, and had already judged the current situation -
"I seem to be...at a disadvantage!"
On the opposite side, Li Junhe's expression was not relaxed either.
He stared at the chessboard, thinking hard about his next move.
"I have the upper hand in the current situation."
"But, don't be careless!"
"He is not the kind of opponent who can easily win by taking control of the game after gaining a slight advantage!"
"My opponent is no ordinary person..."
Li Junhe's expression became more and more solemn, and his eyes became more and more fierce, as if he had murderous intent.
"We must grit our teeth, fight with all our might, and fight him to the end, until the last half point!"
"Don't give him any chance to turn things around!"
"Since I lost that game a year ago, I have been working hard to reach a higher level of chess skills and constantly enrich myself in order to avenge my previous defeat in this game!"
"All this——"
Click!
Li Junhe finally picked out the chess piece and placed it on the chessboard!
"It's all for today's game of chess, a life-and-death battle!"
Da! Twelve columns and four rows, sharp! "Sharp, good job!"
Seeing Li Junhe's move, Dongshan Xun's eyes couldn't help but sink slightly, feeling the amazing edge hidden in this move! "I seem to have underestimated him... In this year, he has become stronger by more than a little bit!"
After thinking for a while, Dongshan Xun finally took out the chess piece and put it down again.
Da! Six in a row, cross! Li Junhe carefully thought for a moment and placed his chess piece again.
Seeing Li Junhe's move, Dongshanxun took a deep breath, put his hand into the chess box, and couldn't help but think of what Yu Shao said at the opening ceremony.
"But no matter how strong he becomes, I will win!"
Dongshan Xun took out the chess piece and looked at the chessboard in front of him, his eyes as sharp as a knife!
"Yu Shao should be in the seminar room, watching this game of chess."
"I want to win for you to see!"
"I want you to open your eyes and take a good look at my chess pieces!"
"This is the chess piece that will kill you!"
Da! The chess piece finally fell! ...
…
"No worries!"
In the discussion room where the Chinese team was, an exclamation of disbelief suddenly rang out, instantly attracting everyone's attention, and they all turned their heads to look at that person.
I saw a young man with dyed yellow hair looking at the TV screen in shock, his eyes full of disbelief.
Everyone looked confused and raised their heads to look at the TV screen.
After seeing the chessboard, everyone's expressions gradually changed. Soon, a look of disbelief appeared on everyone's face! "How could this happen?"
A female chess player covered her mouth and stared at the TV screen. "Just now, Li Junhe was still in the lead, but...but Dongshan Xun unexpectedly performed the Worry-Free Tribulation out of thin air. He actually has such a treacherous method!"
The so-called worry-free ko means that when fighting for a ko, winning the ko can bring certain benefits, but losing the ko also brings little loss, hence the name worry-free ko! "This ko is very light for both sides, but even if White loses the ko, it still has the advantage of the official piece on the upper two roads!"
Xu Zijin's beautiful eyes showed a hint of disbelief, and she said, "With this Worry-Free Tribulation, at this moment... Dongshanxun is in the upper hand!"
Yu Shao stared at the TV screen quietly without saying a word.
Su Yiming also did not speak, but just looked at the chess game intently.
On the TV screen, black and white pieces continued to fall alternately.
Everyone occasionally looked at the chess games at other tables, but except for Qin Lang, Le Haoqiang and Gu Chuan, everyone's attention was focused on this game of the main general! Da! Da! Da! Time passed by minute by minute.
Everyone was looking at the TV screen, and gradually, the review room became quieter and quieter.
After a long time, someone said in shock: "After Dongshanxun opened the Worry-Free Tribulation, his series of moves were deadly and his ferociousness was clearly visible."
"Under the relentless and overwhelming attack of the white piece, even if the black piece doesn't collapse, it will at least be beaten into a miserable state, making many mistakes and falling into a difficult battle!"
"But... Li Junhe was not panicked at all. He turned to the ground calmly and stretched the battle line. He didn't even have a slight gap. He was like a giant python, tightly wrapping around Dongshan Xun!"
Watching the battle between black and white on the chessboard, everyone seemed to be able to feel the thrilling murderous intent on the chessboard even though they were in the discussion room! At this moment, on the TV screen, the white piece fell again.
Seeing this move, the whole audience suddenly became silent again!
Su Yiming, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke slowly at this moment: "Dongshan Xun's move was to go deep into the enemy's territory alone and choose to forcefully kill the black piece. If it is to be a killing move, this is also the strongest move."
"If we extend the battle line further, Lee Jun Hyuk's potential on the left will be terrifying, but White's situation should not be bad either."
Zheng Qin nodded, looked at the TV screen, and said, "But Dongshan Xun wants to... close the net by force!"
"In this case, if Bai Zi fails to kill him, he may also be in danger of collapse!" Wu Shuheng said what Zheng Qin did not say.
The murderous intent on the chessboard is frightening!
On the TV screen, after a brief thought, Li Junhe placed his chess piece again.
Three columns and fifteen rows, pull! Seeing Li Junhe's move, Zheng Qin immediately picked out his black piece and placed it on the board at the same time.
Da! Da! Da! Everyone was setting up the chess pieces according to the chessboard on the TV screen and discussing the disassembly.
"Relying on the strength of the center and bottom, Li Junhe cut the lower left corner of the white chess piece in half!" someone said.
Seeing such a game of chess, no one looked relaxed.
"But Dongshan Xun's move, which takes away more than 20 points from the lower right and survives the lower left, is also an extremely powerful move!"
"But the black pieces' response was also excellent. They took advantage of the white pieces' attacks to make themselves thicker. Now they are actually counterattacking the white pieces. Dongshan Xun is still too strong..."
The more they lost, the more solemn their expressions became. In this game, the two sides fought in such a complicated way in the center, but each move was also extremely wonderful and the outcome was still difficult to determine! Zheng Qin raised his head and glanced at the TV screen. Then he was startled and said in a lost voice: "White, it's over?"
Everyone was a little confused and couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the TV screen.
White chess pieces, seven columns and thirteen rows, damn!
Everyone was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it carefully, they seemed to finally realize something and their pupils trembled slightly.
"Zhi...Zhi Gu's ghost hand!"
Wu Shuheng's face was filled with shock, and he said in a lost voice: "This move may not seem to have much effect, but if you think about it carefully, this move directly targets the weak point of the black piece on the left, and it will work no matter how to deal with the isolated piece!"
"With just this one move, the board was turned upside down. White...actually blew the horn of counterattack again!"
