Chapter 171 Counting the Road Counting the Road

Everyone discussed the change of style of chess players all the way, and Li Xiangping returned to the capital. After returning to the capital, Li Xiangping didn't take this matter to heart.

After all, Li Canghao only slaughtered two dragons this time, has his style really changed? It remains to be seen whether Da Li has become stronger or weaker after the change of style? That's even more inexplicable now.

Because from past experience, there are many players who change their style, and you can think that their understanding of Go should be deepened, but at the same time, they may also lose their strengths.

Historically, there have been quite a few professional chess players who have had this phenomenon.

So can Li Canghao avoid this phenomenon? Of course, the current Li Xiangping does not know, and all this depends on the actual combat review in the future.

Since everything is still unclear, of course Li Xiangping won't think too much, so after returning to China, he immediately shifted his attention to the Weijia event.

This year's tournament is actually nearing the end, and there are only 4 rounds left in total. After deducting the missing rounds, Li Xiangping's previous record was 5 wins and 11 losses, such a result, to be honest, it is really shabby. And it is precisely because of his poor performance that his team is mired in relegation, currently ranked second to last among all teams, and as long as there is a slight mistake in the next few rounds, then next year can only go to the second place.

It is precisely for this reason that Li Xiangping cheered up, firstly, in order to sharpen his level, and secondly, not to drag others down, he attaches great importance to the next few rounds of competition.

It's a pity that Weijia is really not so easy to mix, especially as the main general in Weijia, which is really a bit difficult for Li Xiangping.

On the third day after returning to China, there was a round of armor competition to be played immediately, and for the upcoming game, Li Xiangping muttered in his heart.

Not for anything else, because this time Li Xiangping's team encountered the Zhejiang provincial team. To say that among all the Weijia teams, the current Zhejiang provincial team is only at the upper middle level, and they have never won the Weijia championship before, but this is only the overall level, as far as Li Xiangping is concerned, this game is very difficult to play.

Because the current Zhejiang provincial team has a characteristic, they have Ma Xiaofei and Yu Bin, two top domestic chess players, not only that, but they also have Li Canghao, a super foreign aid.

There is no doubt that these three are all current players at the level of the main general of the current Weijia League.

The real situation is like this, in this year's Weijia field, the Zhejiang provincial team is dominated by these three in turn------ this is Li Xiangping's most headache, not to mention that the level of these three is so high, objectively Li Xiangping against any one, it is an absolute game of chess, more importantly, before the game, Li Xiangping does not know which one he will meet, which of course brings great difficulties to his preparations, even if Li Xiangping has the intention to prepare some targeted strategies, then there is no way to talk about it now.

However, at this juncture, of course, Li Xiangping can't retreat anymore, even if he has no bottom in his heart, he will grit his teeth in this game.

"Da Li signed a 10-game contract with the Zhejiang Provincial Team this year, and it doesn't seem to have run out yet, so they shouldn't let him deal with me in this round, right? If you really touch Da Li, hehe, then this fun will be great."

While Li Xiangping is ready for "heroic sacrifice", the outside world has also paid more attention to this round of armor, not for anything else, of course, because Li Xiangping may encounter Da Li.

"The most powerful candidate for the next hegemon in the world chess world against the current hegemon in the world chess world", so a gimmick like this is naturally worth paying attention to at any time.

It's just that unlike Li Xiangping's apprehension and the expectations of the outside world, on the day of the game, it was Yu Bin Jiuduan who sat opposite Li Xiangping, and Li Canghao Jiuduan didn't come at all this time.

For such a arrangement, Ma Xiaofei, the coach and player of the Zhejiang provincial team, explained to the outside world like this:

"Our team is only 4 points behind the Yamashiro team, and theoretically there is still hope of winning the championship."

Ma Xiao paused, and then continued to say to reporters with a smile;

"It is with this in mind that we have made this arrangement. The opponent in this round is weak, and the biggest chess player on the opposite side is Li Xiangping, and everyone knows that Li Xiangping is a famous nerve knife, his internal war results are surprisingly poor, but the foreign war results are surprisingly good, so good that even chess players like Da Li have to be deflated in his hands, so for the sake of insurance, we still think it may be more appropriate to send Yu Bin as the main general. ”

Well, the reason why the Zhejiang provincial team is not on Da Li is because people are doing it for "insurance purposes", but in any case, Ma Xiaofei's explanation still sounds reasonable to the outside world, and everyone doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

So in this way, Li Xiangping's first opportunity to fight Da Li passed by him. But of course Li Xiangping himself doesn't matter, anyway, for him now, whether it is Da Li or Yu Tou, it is actually the same, he must be at a disadvantage, it is normal to lose, and winning is an accident.

But fortunately, in the next round of the game, Li Xiangping was really "accidental".

This game of chess was played in the capital, Li Xiangping held the white, a little more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the overall 222 hands, Li Xiangping won a small victory with an advantage of one and a half eyes.

"Hehe, in today's game of chess, where was Yu Tou lost by Li Xiangping, he was obviously scared to death by Li Xiangping."

In the post-match review, Ma Xiaofei also participated, and he commented on this game.

In the face of Ma Xiaofei's step-by-step pointing out Yu Bin's problematic move, saying that he was too "cautious and conservative" in this move, and that move seemed "too honest", Li Xiangping was stupid on the side.

The real situation of this game of chess is indeed like this, Li Xiangping can be regarded as playing at a normal level, but the main reason for his victory is not because of how well he played, but mainly because of his opponent's poor play.

"Alas, you must know that the opponent is Li Xiangping, who knows if he has any moths hidden here, so I always want to be stable when I play, and now it seems that I was obviously thinking too much, losing this game of chess is losing here, this move is obviously too slow"

Hearing Yu Bin's nine-section self-examination there, Li Xiangping was even happier in his heart, he really didn't expect that his plug-in would have such a deterrent power, and he could actually scare Yu Bin's nine-section away.

But despite this, Li Xiangping was still very happy after winning the game. First, although the opponent did not play well in this game, he always played normally, right? Second, Li Xiangping has always believed that in the professional Go world, sometimes "deterrence" is also part of the level, isn't it?

In this round, except for Li Xiangping who won the chess himself, his teammates were also powerful, except for the rapid chess one that lost to Ma Xiaofei, the other two all won the chess. In this way, they scored all three points on the Zhejiang provincial team, temporarily alleviating the danger of a relegation. On the other hand, the Zhejiang provincial team, after losing this round, they have completely lost the hope of winning the championship.

A week later, in the penultimate round of this year's Siege League, Li Xiangping's team encountered another old domestic powerhouse in the Central Plains Provincial Team at the beginning of the year. On the main platform, Li Xiangping met Zhou Heyang, one of the "Seven Little Dragons", "Jigong".

Zhou Heyang is also at the peak of his career, and in recent years and in the following years, he is also a regular in the quarterfinals and semifinals of the World Series, and he has also reached the World Series finals twice in real history.

It's just a pity that he lost in both finals, one of which was lost to Li Canghao in the "Chunlan Cup", and the other "Fujitsu Cup" lost to South Korean chess player Park Zhengxiang It was a great pity, and it was after that loss that Zhou Jiuduan officially slipped from his personal peak.

However, it was still a few years before he slipped from the top, and for the current Li Xiangping, Zhou Heyang, who is currently ranked 6th in the domestic rating, is of course still a very strong existence, so before the game, Li Xiangping continued to be prepared to lose.

But I don't know what's going on, maybe Li Xiangping's mentality is very good, or his attitude is very correct, in short, he won this game of chess again.

After winning this game of chess, Li Xiangping was happy.

Although Li Xiangping still doesn't know where he won this game of chess, as if he won it in a daze, but despite this, Li Xiangping is still very happy.

Because after winning these two sets, his overall record in the Weijia arena has improved to 7 wins and 11 losses, and the winning rate has reached about 40%, and this winning rate is exactly the goal set by Li Xiangping himself before the season.

Not only that, the two games won this month plus the one that won Chang Hao at the end of the month, unconsciously, Li Xiangping actually achieved three consecutive victories in the Weijia arena, which was the third consecutive victory of the main general!

To achieve such results, Li Xiangping couldn't have imagined it at the beginning of the year.

"Hehe, am I really playing chess?"

Li Xiangping began to be complacent.

It was in this complacent that he ushered in the penultimate round of this year's Weijia competition, and his team played against the leader Shancheng team, so it is not surprising that Li Xiangping's opponent should be Gu Dali.

Li Xiangping began to swell, he even geared up before the game, there was a "momentum like a rainbow" posture, he was ready to win Gu Dali in one go, and at the same time complete a season of "double killing" Gu Dali, he also let his team be completely relegated.

However, as the saying goes, the so-called ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny. In this game with Gu Dali, Li Xiangping was pressed and beaten by others throughout the game, and finally died extremely ugly.

"Alas, calculate the road, calculate the road, the main thing is to lose to this guy in the competition of the road, Brother Ding'an, let me ask you, you said that in my current situation, how can I improve my ability to calculate the road?"
