  Chapter 86 The Story of Jian Chong

   For the upcoming "Samsung Cup" quarter-finals, after all, this is the only official professional competition that Li Xiangping can participate in, so he and his "plug-in" must be carefully prepared.

  The so-called careful preparation is to formulate a detailed game strategy for the game before the game, so how should this game of chess be played? In other words, what game strategy did Li Xiangping and Shi Daqisheng formulate? This of course depends on the characteristics of the opponent.

By studying the opponent's chess records, Li Xiangping and Lao Shi agreed that the opponent Yamada Gui Sansheng Badan is a standard "benge school", and the so-called "benge school", according to Li Xiangping's understanding, refers to this type of The chess of the chess player has no obvious characteristics, or there is no special bright spot in his chess.

   To use an inappropriate analogy, this is like a student whose usual academic performance is above average. He is not partial to subjects, and he can pass or even go well in every subject, but he has no strengths, and no subject can achieve excellence. Li Xiangping believes that this time his opponent, Yamada 8 dan, seems to be similar to this kind of student

According to common sense, this type of chess player should not be difficult to deal with. Li Xiangping even thinks that according to his "plug-in" strength, even if he upgrades the previous Lao Shi, he should have a bigger chance of winning against Shang Shantian. What's more, after so long training, it's hard to say whether the level has improved substantially, but at least he has become more accustomed to modern chess battles.

   Therefore, for this game of chess, Li Xiangping believes that the only thing that needs attention, or the only thing that needs to be vigilant, is to take into account the competitive state of the opponent. It is a basic fact that Yamada Hachidan is currently in excellent competitive condition. He was able to make it to the title finals at home, and at this time in real history, Yamada was the runner-up in the world, so it's not too much of a stretch to think that Yamada is at the peak of his career.

   Don't take the "competitive state" seriously. Li Xiangping has always believed that the Go game, especially the human Go game, is actually a game of "wrong match" to a large extent.

   The winning or losing of a game of chess is often determined not by how good your best moves are, but by how stinky your worst moves are.

This is why Li Xiangping puts special emphasis on "competitive state", because if a chess player is "in good shape", he may be limited by his extreme level, and he may not be able to play particularly delicate means in the game. In this state, he will not play particularly stinky chess in the game. It is entirely possible that he will play a chess game, and all his moves are above the average level.

   And the current Yamada Ki Sansheng 8dan, it is precisely in this state.

   also took into account the opponent's situation, so Li Xiangping felt that this game needs to think of a way.

   But what can I do? In fact, to be honest, at the very beginning, Li Xiangping didn't find any clues. After all, although "Benge School" is not a compliment, it is difficult for this type of chess player to find his real weaknesses. Therefore, It is difficult to develop a targeted strategy.

In the end, there is still a way for the great chess master: "What's so difficult about this? Xiaoyou Xiangping, let me ask you, what do you think this type of chess player is best at? Or, what kind of pattern does the chessboard appear? What do they like best?"

   This sentence can wake up Li Xiangping, yes! What do the "Benge School" players like the most? Of course they usually like to play kung fu chess, in other words, their best way to win chess is, of course, playing kung fu chess.

In line with the principle of "what the enemy is best at, he can't let him do what he wants", then the game strategy for this game is naturally ready: that is, try to be proactive when playing chess, and use the method of proactive attack to put pressure on the opponent. , do not let the chess game be included in the track that the opponent is good at.

   It must be admitted that this idea should be the right one, and the tactical idea should be clear. However, before the start of the game, Li Xiangping was still a little unsure.

His lack of bottom is not because of anything else, but because although the general direction is clear, Lao Shi also told him that he is going to take the initiative to attack this game of chess, but Li Xiangping does not know the specific method of "active attack". He had no clue, and his plug-in didn't tell him how he was going to play this game of chess.

   This is the reason why Li Xiangping has no idea.

   While he was not sure, he was also looking forward to it. He wanted to see what kind of performance his plug-in could have after a few months of training.

   At 10:00 a.m. Korean time, the game officially started. By guessing first, Li Xiangping guessed the black chess, and he began to make moves on the chessboard according to Lao Shi's instructions.

   And Shi Daqisheng also seemed to be well-prepared. After he chose "Er Lianxing" to start the game, it took almost no time for the first 10 or so moves.

In less than half an hour, the overall situation has already made 22 moves, and the half-hour game time is almost all used by the opponent. Li Xiangping took the time to look at the clock and found that the game time on his side had hardly moved. .

   On the 23rd hand, Li Xiangping's hand finally stopped.

  It must be mentioned that at this time Lao Shi had already given him instructions, but after hearing Lao Shi's instructions, Li Xiang was delighted:

   "Brother Ding'an, are you sure you really want to make this "Jian Chong"?"

"However, what happened to little friend Xiangping? I remember that you told me this hand "Jianchong" for the first time. I think this hand "Jianchong" is very good on this occasion today, so let's go here. "

   "But we haven't done in-depth research on this hand."

   "It's okay, just do what I want."

  Li Xiangping was even happier: "Okay, as you wish, as you wish."

   The reason why Li Xiangping was amused was because of the move played by Lao Shi, which was considered a "dog move".

   Chess fans of later generations all know that when it comes to the most famous "Jiang Chong" in Go, it should be the "Jiang Chong Wuyou Corner" proposed by Mr. Wu Qingyuan. If you count the time, this move has just been proposed by Mr. Wu not long ago.

   As for the 23rd move in today's overall situation, it is a "dog move", which originally appeared in the 60-game test game of the second-generation dog "Master" against humans.

This is the reason why Li Xiangping laughs. You must know that when Mr. Wu first proposed "Sharp Chong Wuyoujiao", this chess move caused a lot of controversy. There was even a very famous professional chess player of the ancient school. Said: This move is a bad move, and he can't understand this move.

  After the appearance of Go AI, there is naturally nothing to say about this "sharp rush to the worry-free corner". Go AI clearly tells everyone that this is a good move! Because if these are all bad moves, then the "Jian Chong" hand played by the "Master", that is, the "Jian Chong" hand that appeared on the chessboard today, is even more damaging.

   "Let's not talk about the actual combat effect like this, but if I really go here, I'm sure the opposite party will be amazed. It's good to be able to make him impatient, hehe"

   With such a mentality, Li Xiangping made this move with a smile.

   Sure enough, after he made this move, his opponent looked up at him in surprise.

   And the story of this game of chess starts from this "jumping" step.
