Chapter 250: The Duel of the Scholars
What's wrong? ”
Hearing someone call himself, Yue Hao was also a little confused.
And because Ande is relatively tall, and Yue Hao looks fat, the two of them bend down and look at each other condescendingly, which always gives people a strange sense of disobedience.
"Can I play chess with you again?"
Ander said in broken Chinese.
"Playing chess? Chess? ”
Yue Hao was stunned again, he didn't expect Ander to find himself for this kind of thing.
"You've already lost two hands, and you still want to play?"
"I... Former. ”
Ander wanted to organize the language in Chinese, but he didn't know how to describe it.
Had to say a long list in English, hoping that someone would translate it for him.
"He said he didn't play very well when he was in the hotel the day before yesterday and wants to play with you again."
Because Su Mu was relatively close to Ande, he translated it for him by the way, Ande nodded again and again, glanced at Su Mu gratefully, and said thank you.
"I'd like to formally challenge you." Ender continued.
At this time, many people on the bus were already looking at this place, and several teachers and team leaders were also very curious.
Su Mu admired Ande's courage a little.
I didn't expect him to dare to come over and write a war book by such a person.
At the same time, he also turned his head and glanced at Yue Hao.
At that time, when Yue Hao was playing chess in the hotel, Su Mu thought that he would lose, but now listening to Ande's tone, it turned out that Yue Hao won the game.
Although it is said that several of them are playing against the landlord, after all, everyone has come to the front, and it is not appropriate to drive them away directly.
Behind Ender, a few students gradually came over, and there was also a team leader.
The team leader greeted Chen Bing politely in English.
Although the space in the back row of this bus is quite large, it can't help but be a little crowded at this time.
......
In the back row of the bus, where a small spot had been vacated, Ander took out the chessboard he had prepared in advance from his bag.
"Yue Hao, do you have confidence, so many people may not be able to embarrass our Huaxia team when they look at you."
Chen Bing watched the students' play, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.
In the past, in fact, there would be some estrangement and even hostility between the students of the national team.
But in recent years, at least in the Olympiad, there has been much less of this estrangement and hostility.
It's more of a friendly competition.
"It's hard to say, I'm a little panicked right now."
Yue Hao laughed.
But they have already started to prepare for the game.
Looking at Yue Hao's expression, Su Mu knew that this guy was definitely going to play pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger again, but he was quite happy to see Yue Hao give the Huaxia team a boost in front of several team leaders.
Soon.
At the beginning of the game, the rules of the arrangement are two wins of three rounds.
Yue Hao's expression began to become serious.
Ander sat in the corridor, everyone watched the chess game, and Su Mu also slowly looked at the game.
There is still a big difference between chess and traditional Chinese chess, although the number of chess pieces is 16 on both sides, but it is two completely different styles of play.
The player who plays the game takes the lead, and each move takes turns, until the end of the game.
The king walks horizontally, straightly, and obliquely, and is limited to one step at a time, and the queen also walks horizontally, straightly, and obliquely, and the number of steps is not limited, but it cannot be crossed.
Each piece is especially used individually, in addition to this, there are some special rules such as eating a passing pawn, pawn promotion, castling of the king rook and so on.
The battle in the chess game was a little anxious.
After all, the people who can come here are the world's top players in the Olympiad competition.
Even if you don't know much about chess, you can quickly learn some layouts just by relying on your strong computing power.
Not to mention, the two people in the game may have been professionally trained before.
"It's kind of interesting."
Su Mu touched his chin.
He hadn't paid attention to chess before.
Now I've watched most of the game.
The duel between Yue Hao and Ander couldn't help but attract him.
If traditional Chinese chess is about strategizing, then in chess, it is more about the duel of computing power.
Only 64 of the 32 chess pieces can be moved, and almost every move is a test of computing power.
In Chinese chess, due to the existence of the elephant warrior and the commander of the nine-square grid, it can form a perfect defense and a strategic layout.
However, in chess, when any pawn of the own side reaches the opponent's bottom line, it can be promoted to any kind of chess piece except for the "king" and "pawn", adding more fierce confrontations.
This novel way of mental confrontation is really a big attraction in this pure mathematics Olympiad team.
Su Mu's skill list once obtained the skill of chess.
According to the current situation, the chess on the skill list should only represent the traditional Chinese chess.
......
The first game, after a fierce battle, ended with Yue Hao's narrow victory.
But in the second game, Ander used a semi-open game called Sicilian defensive style to start and pull back the score again steadily.
Su Mu had already seen that Yue Hao belonged to that very aggressive style, as long as he decided to attack, it would be an extremely fierce attack.
But if the defense is in place and then slowly counterattacks, his disadvantages will suddenly become apparent.
In the third game, the battle was more intense, and there weren't even many chess pieces left between the two.
Under the nervous gaze of everyone.
Yue Hao still won the invitational match.
The members of the U.S. team all sighed, Ender had won the runner-up in the American high school chess tournament, and he thought that he could be ashamed after adjusting his condition today, but he still didn't take the opportunity.
"You're strong."
Ande shook hands with Yue Hao, and said in a broken noon: "I hope there will be a chance to play chess together next time." ”
Some other members of the American team also cast admiring glances at Yue Hao.
When they're playing on their own team.
But no one has ever won against Ender.
Yue Hao laughed heartily.
At the same time, I was relieved.
He himself has been playing chess for many years in private.
I have to say that Ender's learning ability is really strong, if he plays a few more rounds, when Ender is familiar with his aggressive style of play, he may not be able to win.
Seeing Yue Hao's victory, Chen Bing smiled at him with satisfaction.
"What about Su Mu? Su Mu, don't you play? ”
But after looking at Su Mu, who was idle on the side, Chen Bing still couldn't help but ask.
In the past two days, Chen Bing has found a lot of information about Su Mu on the Internet, and he has become more and more interested in Su Mu as a student.
He really wanted to see which one would be stronger if it was a duel between Su Mu and Yue Hao.
