Chapter 50: The Pawn Crossing the River

In Lei Zhen's life, the first two words he knew were not his own name, but "will" and "handsome"!

When Ling Weicheng walked back to the ward with the pot full of egg noodle soup, under the light of the incandescent light bulb, her husband Xie Jinyuan and the big boy named Lei Zhen were fighting a fierce battle with the chessboard as a battlefield, and even she pushed open the door, and neither of them looked up.

Ling Weicheng tiptoed over to the two men, and as soon as she saw Lei Zhen's chess skills, she clearly knew that this big boy was just a novice who was just getting involved in chess.

But the strange thing is that Ling Weicheng saw a kind of excitement on Xie Jinyuan's face, which was almost like a chess opponent.

Ling Weicheng stood behind Xie Jinyuan, carefully looking at the halfway game of chess, and she watched as Lei Zhen pushed a pawn forward, wanting to eat a cannon that Xie Jinyuan had placed there. Xie Jinyuan strategically retreated the cannon and took a step back, and Lei Zhen pushed the pawn one step further; Xie Jinyuan took another step back from the cannon, and Lei Zhen, as if he was consumed, actually pushed the pawn forward for the third time.

Ling Weicheng has never seen it in his life, he is so aggressive in a chess game, and with a pawn, he can play a kind of toughness, raising a kind of tragic and murderous battle with no return! It was only at this time that Ling Weicheng understood that in terms of chess strength, Lei Zhen and Xie Jinyuan were really out of reach, but in this confrontation with the chessboard as the stage of war, his momentum was enough to match Xie Jinyuan's fight, and even surpassed!

Ling Weicheng looked at Lei Zhen's face that was completely integrated into the chess battle and seemed too focused, she really couldn't imagine what kind of experience this big boy who was obviously a novice had been, and he could force Xie Jinyuan, who was invincible all over the world on the chessboard when he was in the school, and his face had a dignified attitude.

Xie Jinyuan has already regarded Lei Zhen as a real opponent.

It's because Lei Zhen doesn't understand chess skills, but he can do it with his surname alone, the kind of chess game that never starts with common sense, the kind of attack that is sharp to the limit, and the theory of attacking, attacking, and attacking again to the limit, that kind of whimsical tactics, although it did not give Xie Jinyuan a real threat, but Xie Jinyuan was moved!

Those pawns who were destined to become cannon dust rushed to the river boundary one by one with murderous spirits, and one by one they were taken under the chessboard by Xie Jinyuan.

"Hehe, it seems that you like to play chess with pawns?"

Xie Jinyuan suddenly spoke, but Ling Weicheng's eyes widened, because she clearly knew that her husband was the most calm when playing chess, whether he was eating or losing, even if it was a big ups and downs, he would not say a word, and face everything with a calm and unfathomable attitude. With his cultivation, it is enough to make most opponents with equal chess strength lose one by one in the bloody battle with him.

And Xie Jinyuan opened his mouth to speak, which means that Xie Jinyuan, who has a good understanding of people's surnames and has integrated Chinese philosophy into the way of war, has begun to extend the battlefield from the confrontation of chess pieces to the psychological competition between two pairs of players.

"I remember you said something when you taught me to play chess."

Lei Zhen moved the corpse of his companion, and finally succeeded in killing the pawn who crossed the river realm, and said in a deep voice: "The pawn who crossed the river, be a chariot!" ”

Xie Jinyuan's eyes suddenly raised a flame of appreciation, and when Lei Zhen spoke, his spirit was obviously still immersed in the chess game that was destined to be wiped out, and his eyes were still firmly fixed on the pawn who was the only one who had crossed the river boundary and could already rush left and right. This kind of concentration, this kind of firm will that is not affected by anything, makes Lei Zhen's whole body, like that pawn crossing the river, have a frank and unscrupulous, and even unscrupulous momentum.

When a game of chess was finished, Xie Jinyuan finally found his wife standing quietly behind him, he grabbed his wife and said, "Weicheng, you came back just in time, you are the referee for the two of us!" ”

Quickly put away the chess, and under Lei Zhen's slightly surprised gaze, Xie Jinyuan cautiously found a wooden box from the bedside table. This is the preciousness that Xie Jinyuan is not willing to throw away even if he enters the Four Elements Warehouse.

opened the chess box, and in this chess box, dozens of chess pieces carved by Xie Jinyuan with good wood were neatly placed. Even the chessboard was drawn by Xie Jinyuan with his own hands with a compass, a ruler, and on the paper on which the map was drawn. After pouring all these chess pieces on the chessboard, Xie Jinyuan was about to place the chess pieces when his hand suddenly stopped again. He looked at Lei Zhen and said with a smile: "It seems that I have to be a teacher again, and teach you to know dozens of words more." By the way, I guess you still don't understand the division of our army, and I must teach you this as well. ”

What Xie Jinyuan took out was a land battle chess, which can also be called blind chess. This chess game was invented in 1899 by a South African man named Henry Michael Temple. He himself was a chess enthusiast, and because his partner wanted to play a game that reflected war, he borrowed chess pieces and invented this war game. This type of chess has been popular in England since 1900, and is played against each side with a board and a board in the middle for the referee.

Unlike ordinary chess, neither side can look at each other's chess pieces and chessboards, and the referee will conduct battle deduction and firepower comparison on the chessboard in front of him according to the limited information provided by both sides, and according to the troops invested by both sides, the weaker side will be cleared out of the chess game. This kind of blind chess, compared with ordinary chess, the biggest difference is that you can't see the opponent's chess pieces, which is more challenging and more in line with the way of war!

It was with these chess pieces in his hand that he ate egg and spinach noodle soup in large gulps, Lei Zhen followed Xie Jinyuan and learned to be a commander, army commander, division commander, and brigade commander...... Sapper, mine, bomb these Chinese characters. At the same time, Lei Zhen also knew that the commander was older than the army, and the army commander was older than the division, and although the engineer was the smallest and an out-and-out pawn crossing the river, he was the only branch of the army that could carry out high-mobility and roundabout turns around the railway line, and it was also the only special branch of the army that could unravel the enemy's thunderstorm without paying any price.
