Chapter 329: Does Daxie still exist?
Yu Shao looked quietly at the upper right corner of the chessboard.
The black piece has a small eye, the white piece has a small flying eye, and the white piece has a large flying cover.
For hundreds of years, countless chess players have been meditating in front of the chessboard, and around this part, they have derived countless complex, fierce, dazzling attacks and defenses, and played countless world-shaking games!
The notorious Big Slant pattern finally came into play in this game! "The Big Slant pattern was played again..."
Yu Shao lowered his eyes and looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar pattern with a somewhat puzzled look in his eyes.
The three most difficult Go patterns to solve - Great Avalanche, Demon Sword and Great Slash - were also very famous in the past and attracted countless players.
However, since the birth of Go AI, the great avalanche has collapsed, the demon sword has died, and of the three most difficult Go patterns, only the big angle is still stubbornly holding on.
Yes, Daxie...is indeed still alive.
Although the big diagonal pattern still exists and is still somewhat vibrant, it has been greatly simplified after the advent of AI and no longer has the same reputation as before. Chess players rarely use it in competitions.
Simply put, the reason why Daxie is regarded as one of the three most difficult patterns to solve is that Daxie has thousands of variations and is so ferocious that it can hurt oneself in order to save the lives of others!
However, nowadays, many vicious moves in the big angle have been denied, many fierce ways of playing have disappeared, and extremely simple new ways of playing have emerged. Naturally, the big angle no longer has thousands of changes.
So, in a sense, the Great Slant no longer exists.
"The next move is to move directly forward. Of course, this is also a feasible move. In this way, the game will be more intense, but——"
Yu Shao looked at the chessboard, finally made up his mind, and reached into the chess box.
“Click!”
Finally, the sound of chess pieces colliding could be heard again by everyone.
The next moment, Yu Shao took the chess piece out of the chess box and dropped it quickly.
Da! Fifteen columns and four rows, sharp! "No choice but to lean on it!"
Seeing this move, everyone was a little surprised.
"He chose the less complicated tip variation?"
Like Jian and Kao, both are basic moves for facing a big diagonal. The difference is that the changes of Kao are particularly complex and intense, while the subsequent changes of Jian are relatively simple.
However, as one of the three most difficult Go patterns, the big diagonal move has many consequences even if the sharp move is chosen. It is not so easy to avoid the big diagonal move! Soon, the sound of chess pieces colliding was heard again.
The next moment, Lai Yu picked up the chess piece without hesitation and placed it on the chessboard! Fifteen rows and five elements, move! "Move."
Yu Shao looked at the white chess piece that had just fallen, with no surprise on his face.
Facing the tip of the black piece, the white piece's move is the only basic move. Apart from this, any other moves will quickly put the white piece at a disadvantage, or even in danger of collapse! "The next move, one way to play is to hold the tiger, then the white piece can only press, and the black piece crawls, the white piece continues to press, and the black piece continues to crawl..."
"So, if the white piece pushes four moves in a row on the fourth road, and the black piece climbs three moves in a row on the third road, the black piece can directly escape and find another place. This big diagonal pattern is complete!"
Yu Shao looked at the chessboard in front of him and had already calculated the changes that would occur after a dozen moves.
Yes, the seemingly complex and dangerous Big Diagonal, if he plays the tiger in the next move, the black and white pieces will exchange territory and momentum, after a few simple moves, at least in his opinion, the Big Diagonal pattern will be complete.
"If White continues to fight in the upper right corner, even if he gains a small advantage, the whole game will be controlled!"
"Of course, the premise of this tactic is that the opponent has a good enough overall view and can start from the overall situation and give up continuing to entangle in the upper right corner."
"This is the Great Oblique Style, one of the reasons why it is forgotten by everyone!"
Yu Shao looked at the upper right corner of the chessboard, calculating the gains and losses in his mind.
This way of playing is certainly good. As long as the opponent does not have a good overall view, black pieces can easily gain the upper hand. Even if the opponent has a good overall view, black pieces can still compete with white pieces.
Moreover, he felt that it was unlikely that anyone would have such a broad view. This method of defeating the enemy without fighting was exactly in line with the chess style he used in his previous life.
"But there is another way to play at this time."
Yu Shao raised his head, glanced at Lai Yu opposite him, and then glanced at the crowd around him.
"If this move was just a simple tiger-holding move, they would probably be somewhat disappointed, right?"
Yu Shao lowered his head and looked at the chessboard, his eyes changed slightly.
"In that case..."
Click!
With the sound of chess pieces colliding, the chess pieces were held between fingers! "Let's do this!"
The next moment, the chess piece fell!
Da! Fourteen rows and five lines, break! A black piece fell between the breakpoints of the white piece, directly splitting the white piece into two pieces. The situation instantly became extremely sharp and intense! "Break..."
Seeing this move, everyone was stunned at first, and then suddenly shocked, looking at the black piece that had just landed on the chessboard with disbelief on their faces!
"Broken here?!"
Although this move shocked everyone and made them feel it was unbelievable, but!
At this moment, no one in the room spoke, they just stared at the chessboard, their hearts pounding! Silence! The whole room became even quieter! "In the next move, the white piece retreats alone, the black piece attacks, the white piece grows, and the black piece blocks again, then the white piece's next move will be very severe!"
Some people were sweating on their faces, feeling a little panicked, a little excited, and a little bit incredulous: "The tip of the white chess piece is threatening to kill the black piece in the corner!"
Looking at this move that he could hardly understand, a thought emerged in his mind uncontrollably -
"Will this move be the wail of the big angle?"
Not only him, but similar thoughts emerged in the minds of everyone else!
This move is truly incredible and groundbreaking, and it is just ridiculous!
But with the avalanche and the destruction of the demon sword in front of them, no one could laugh at this moment!
This was clearly a move that was intended to lead to his own death, but at this moment they actually felt that Daxie might be dead, even though they didn't know what the purpose of this move was! In the crowd, Jiang Changdong's expression also became extremely solemn, and he was calculating the subsequent changes in his mind.
"White retreats alone, black attacks, white grows, black blocks, these are all inevitable moves, but after this, white has a sharp and strong hand!"
"Facing the tip of the white piece, if the black piece blocks it, the white piece will be in a fierce position. The black piece will not be able to hold the white piece in the next move. If the black piece forcibly holds it, the white piece will be disconnected and will attack the black piece's urgent need!"
"If the black piece connects, the white piece will eat up the black piece. If the black piece is long, it will be attacked by the white piece. It will be difficult for the black piece to survive. In this way, the black piece will collapse!"
Jiang Changdong stared at the chessboard, as if chess pieces were constantly falling on it, and soon he worked out another complex change.
"If the black piece does not block the tip of the white piece and instead captures it directly, that won't work either."
"White will simply connect. If the black piece gets in the way, the white piece will crawl. It's pretty much the same as before!"
"If the black piece blocks outside, the white piece will crawl towards the corner. The black piece grows, and the white piece crawls again. In this killing match, the black piece obviously cannot kill the white piece!"
Jiang Changdong's brows furrowed more and more, and in an instant, he calculated another complex change.
"Facing the tip of the white piece, if the black piece stands upright, the simplest thing for the white piece to do is to crawl directly into the corner and forcefully attack the black piece. If the black piece pulls... that won't work either. Even if the black piece has the power to reach the sky, it will never be a match for the white piece in a head-on fight."
Jiang Changdong slowly raised his head, looked at Yu Shao, and couldn't help squinting his eyes.
"No matter how you look at it, this move can't even be called a slow or vulgar one, but a bad one."
On the side, Chu Jingfeng seemed to hear Jiang Changdong's thoughts.
He suddenly murmured in a low voice: "But why did he do this?"
Hearing this, Jiang Changdong remained silent, staring at the chessboard quietly, waiting for Lai Yu to make a move, or rather... waiting for Yu Shao to give an answer!
Lai Yu looked at the chessboard and watched Yu Shao's move. He couldn't help but look up at Yu Shao, then looked at the chessboard again and fell into long thought.
Time passed by little by little, and the more Lai Yu thought about it, the tighter his brows furrowed, until finally, his brows were completely furrowed into a ball, and he still didn't understand what Yu Shao meant by this move.
“Click!”
After a long time, Lai Yu finally reached into the chess box, picked out the chess piece with a clanging sound, and slowly dropped it! Snap! Fifteen columns and six rows, retreat!
Everyone thought that Yu Shao's next move might be surprising, echoing the incredible move before, but Yu Shao's next move was beyond everyone's expectations! Seeing the white chess piece fall, Yu Shao immediately clamped out the chess piece and followed the white chess piece!
Da! Thirteen columns and four rows, hit! Lai Yu also picked up the chess piece and dropped it.
White chess pieces, fourteen columns and three rows, long!
Black chess pieces, thirteen columns and three rows, block!
Up to this point, everything was within everyone's expectations, and it was also the best local response that could be seen at a glance. However, after the black chess piece made this blocking move, the white chess piece now also had the strongest local killer move! "Click!"
Amid the sound of chess pieces colliding, Lai Yu picked up the chess piece and dropped it almost without hesitation! Da! Fifteen columns and two rows, sharp! Seeing this move, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, feeling the shocking murderous intent that was no longer hidden in the chess game, but directly erupted! With this move, the white chess piece was completely exposed, and it was going to forcefully attack the black chess piece in the upper right corner, and kill the black chess piece in one battle! At this moment, Yu Shao looked at the chessboard and picked up the chess piece again.
Under everyone's gaze, the black spot fell gently.
Da! Fourteen columns and two rows, hit! Seeing this move, everyone felt as if the back of their heads were hit by a heavy hammer, and suddenly everything went blank! This move...
beat?!
Even Jiang Changdong was looking at the black piece that had just landed on the chessboard in shock.
"Hit on the second route?!"
He had previously considered several ways that black pieces could respond when facing the white pieces. Whether it was blocking, attacking in three directions, or standing still, none of them could compete with the white pieces.
But he had never considered this two-way attack.
In other words, no one would consider doing this, even though the change is not complicated at all.
Because this two-way play doesn't look like chess at all.
Even with just a quick glance, you can tell that this variation doesn't work. The white piece only needs to stick to it to counterattack the black piece.
This black piece is a chess piece, and the black piece can only be connected. After the black piece is connected, no matter whether the white piece's next move is to turn or capture, the black piece will be directly defeated!
This two-way attack not only did not answer the previous one, but it was the exact opposite, making everyone even more confused and puzzled! Lai Yu was also stunned when he saw this two-way attack.
After a long time, Lai Yu finally picked up the chess piece again and dropped it quickly.
Da! Fifteen columns and three rows, stick! This move combines escape and attack. The white piece not only escapes, but also threatens to kill the black piece. The black piece cannot afford to respond!
But the next moment, when Yu Shao made his move, everyone was completely stunned when they saw the position where the black chess piece landed! Faced with the dilemma of chess being in checkmate, the black chess piece did not stick to the chess piece, but——
Sixteen columns and two rows, play! Black chess, abandoned the chess tendon!
"Gudong!"
Someone in the crowd swallowed his saliva quietly.
Everyone stared at the chessboard in disbelief, their eyes starting to blur.
Don't discard the chess piece! This may seem like just a black piece, but it is a real chess piece that can completely separate the two white pieces!
Once this chess vein is killed by the white piece, the two originally separated pieces of white will be connected as one, majestic and indestructible, so thick that it is hard to describe! However, Yu Shao still abandoned the chess vein! "Is there another mystery?!"
“Are there any other changes here later?”
"There are no other changes. Now the white piece can only move the chess pieces. If the white piece stands, the black piece will definitely stick to it. If the white piece captures, the black piece will block it from the outside, and the white piece will be killed!"
"But if the white piece removes the chess piece, what will the black piece do?!"
Everyone's heart was filled with shock and they stared at the chessboard in disbelief.
Yu Shao slowly raised his head with a calm expression, looking at Lai Yu opposite him, waiting for Lai Yu to make his move.
This is another variation of the big diagonal pattern! In this variation, the black pieces give up their tendons, and the white pieces become one piece.
If the game continues like this, it was previously believed that after the white pieces capture the chess pieces, the board will become incredibly thick and almost impossible to move, and it will also have great potential for development.
On the other hand, the only spaces that the black pieces can enclose seem to be on the first and second lines, which seems inefficient and unable to compete with the white pieces.
However, Go AI has given a surprising new interpretation to this:
In this part, not only did the black pieces not lose, but the white pieces even fell into a disadvantage! The white pieces are indeed thick and difficult to be shaken! It is very difficult to surround and annihilate a thick force! Therefore, the best way to deal with a thick force is not to find a hint of the thick force and then launch an attack.
The most ferocious and powerful way to deal with a thick position is to make it even thicker! Yes, thicker! A thick position is already difficult to attack, so there is no need to force it, but to make it even thicker, so that the opponent can be completely unbreakable.
Although we can no longer attack the opponent, the chess pattern will appear repetitive and the efficiency of the chess pieces will be reduced because the opponent is too strong! This is the gap between the times! (End of this chapter)
