On this day, as soon as Akira Kagesa arrived at the office, the adjutant came up and reported: "General, Mr. Weidmann of Germany has asked to see you. ”

Shadow knew that this Weidmann was actually the secret envoy of the German Führer, so he immediately ordered: "Please come in quickly." ”

After Weidmann came in, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Weidemann asked, "General Yingzuo, I heard that your army will hold a more powerful anti-aggression conference in the near future?" ”

Ying Zuo nodded and replied: "That's right, the effect of this conference a few days ago was very good, so the headquarters decided to hold another one at the same time in Shanghai and Nanjing in a later period to stimulate the morale of the army and stabilize the people's morale." ”

"But have you ever considered that some of your slogans and practices are a little inappropriate?" Weidmann said with a frown.

"Oh? I don't know what makes you feel this way, Mr. Weidmann? Kagesa asked, a little puzzled.

"Britain and the United States are our common enemies at present, so we support their blows, but this attack should not be expanded, at least not to the hatred between races, because we Germans are also Caucasians." Weidmann said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Shadow Zuo immediately understood what Weidman meant, that's right, this time the matter was a bit excessive, forgetting that the white people also have their own allies, so he apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Weidman, this matter is our negligence, I will report it to the headquarters, and promise that there will be no more misunderstandings among allies in all the next activities." ”

As a result, half a month later, the congress was renamed the "Anti-Anglo-Renaissance Congress", and at the same time, the slogans were also somewhat restrained, and there were no more hateful remarks against the white race.

However, Fang Hongjian did not pay attention to this "Anti-Yingxingya Conference", because his attention was attracted by a news in the newspaper titled ""Chess Dao Newspaper Congress" Will Go to Shanghai Labor Army", because in this strange "Chess Dao Newspaper Congress", Fang Honggradually saw a familiar name--- Wu Qingyuan.

As a chess fan with an amateur strong four level in his previous life, Fang Hongjian is still very familiar with Wu Qingyuan, the great master of chess known as the "Showa Chess Saint", and his contributions to Go, especially the big avalanche and other formulas, are still influencing future generations of chess players, but what this master has done outside the chess path is not very commendable.

However, since crossing over, Fang Honggradually has learned to look at a person according to the actual situation, such as Yang Hui, who he is familiar with, if there is a record in later generations, it must be a heinous traitor, but Fang Honggradually knows his change process very well, although he also admits that he absolutely deserves to die, but he is always a little embarrassed about his fate, so he wants to meet this chess master to see if he has anything unspeakable.

Through Matsushima Fengzi Fang Honggradually got a welcome reception invitation to the "Chess Road Newspaper Congress", and when he arrived inside, he didn't see Wu Qingyuan after looking for a long time, so he still asked a waiter, and then pointed to a young man who was sitting in the angle and drinking silently alone and said, "That is Wu Qingyuan." But there was disdain in his tone.

Fang Hong's attitude towards the waiter can be understood, because he joined the Japanese nationality and came to the army on behalf of the Japanese this time, so Wu Qingyuan's reputation among the people in Shanghai is extremely stinky, and even someone in the hotel where he stayed posted the slogan "Kill the Yihua traitor Wu Qingyuan".

But at this moment, in Fang Hongji's eyes, he was a tall and thin young man who was sitting in the corner drinking silently, and he didn't know where he was thinking or what to think.

Fang Hong gradually walked over with a glass of wine and greeted, "Hello, you are Mr. Wu Qingyuan Wu." ”

After more than ten seconds, Wu Qingyuan reacted, and then nodded stunned and replied, "That's right, I am Wu Qingyuan." ”

"Why is Mr. Wu sitting here drinking alone? Why don't you join them on stage? ”

Hearing Fang Hongji's question, Wu Qingyuan explained with some embarrassment: "Well, I'm not very good at communicating, so this place is more suitable for me." Oh, by the way, what do you call it, sir? ”

Fang Hong gradually said in his heart, and only now did he remember to ask me, this reflex arc is long enough, and then replied: "Oh, my surname is Fang, my name is Fang Hongchuan." I usually like to play chess, especially Mr. Wu's chess games, especially the book "New Layout Method" written by you and Mr. An Yongyi has inspired me a lot, and now I have begun to like to play chess. ”

"It seems that Mr. Fang really knows chess, many people only know the imitation chess game between me and Mu Gu Minoru, but in fact, Su Dongpo has already played it back then." Wu Qingyuan said a little depressed.

The so-called imitation chess is to take the first hand of black to seize Tianyuan, and then where the white chess is played, he will follow the corresponding point, because of the previous sticking system, so this kind of play, black chess is bound to win. Wu Qingyuan played such a hand when he first met Minoru Kitani when he first arrived in Japan, and the result shocked the Japanese Go community.

However, for Su Dongpo he proposed, Fang Hongjian shook his head and said: "This should be a legend, because there were already rules for the seat in the Northern Song Dynasty, so this kind of imitation chess will not go to the end at all." (The seat is the staggered placement of black and white in the position of the four pointed stars, which was abolished in modern Go because it limited variation, but it is a good way to break the imitation chess.) ）

Hearing Fang Hongjian say this, Wu Qingyuan suddenly realized: "Yes, there was a seat at that time, it seems that I am indeed a false rumor." ”

"So it's not wrong for the Japanese chess world to say that Mr. Wu is the first person to imitate chess." Fang Hong gradually picked it up again.

Wu Qingyuan waved his hand a little embarrassed and said: "Hey, I just arrived in Japan at that time, and I was young, so I made a joke with Mr. Mugu when I was young, in fact, this kind of imitation chess is very easy to break, but Mr. Mugu saw it for the first time, so he was a little flustered." ”

PS: Maybe the Japanese are a bit stupid in this chapter, but in fact the Japanese were really negligent in this matter, originally at the "Lantern Celebration" the Japanese planned to ruthlessly punish the prisoners of war, but then it was under the intervention of the German secret envoy Weidmann that they did not do so.

PS2: Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to wash the floor for Wu Qingyuan, for him to be divided into two aspects, one is his contribution to Go, and the other is to behave in the world, which will be written in the next chapter.
