Chapter 198 Three "Touches" to Determine the Winner

At around 3:30 p.m., Li Xiaoqiang fell into the long exam for the first time.

Due to the peculiarities of this game, both sides have a lot of eyes. In the absence of many dead children, if there are many meshes, the number of moves in chess will not be many. Under normal circumstances, the game may not exceed 200 moves by the time it reaches the endgame.

Li Xiaoqiang knew very well in his heart that this might be the last battle of the game. It is also one of the most critical battles. If the place is not handled well. Then the little so-called advantage accumulated earlier will be in vain.

I used to play good chess and play good moves. In the end, he actually lost chess...... This is actually one of the most uncomfortable ways to lose.

It doesn't matter what others think of Li Xiaoqiang, anyway, that's what Li Xiaoqiang thinks. He was absolutely unwilling to accept such a method of losing. So he had to think about it. Fortunately, there is still a lot of time, and Li Xiaoqiang still has nearly an hour left. Enough for him to splurge.

Since there is enough time, let's sort out the whole situation first.

When Li Xiaoqiang took that step to "touch". Admittedly, it was very lethal to the black side. At this point, black cannot force the hollow.

This is also where "touching" is better than "entering"!

Since "bump" is in the 4th way, and "punch" is in the 3rd way. If black continues to force the hollow. A change that can be predicted: compared to "hitting", black is equivalent to being "stripped of a layer of skin" again. This consequence is unacceptable to black in any case.

The first step in the first step, "touching", is already equivalent to being "peeled off a layer of skin". Now let the family pick up another layer? Professional chess players don't dare to play like this. To make up for the previous losses, Yitian also counted on Li Xiaoqiang to make a small mistake when shaping the mid-abdomen. In this special situation, it is indeed possible to lose 1 move. If it is more than 10 moves, can he expect Li Xiaoqiang to make 2 mistakes in a game of chess?

I'm afraid I don't dare! When everyone faced Li Xiaoqiang at this time. Even if he is the top professional master of this era, I am afraid he does not dare to expect Li Xiaoqiang to make 2 mistakes in a game of chess!

If you can't forcibly encircle the hollow, then you must release it to attack. Yitian did the same. This is actually the strategic purpose of Li Xiaoqiang's "touch".

Although the strategic goal has been achieved, it cannot be said that this step of "touching" is necessarily better than that step of "entering". Know the way. That move "into" white has a "purpose"! And this move "touches", of course, is more destructive, and can break more "meshes" of black pieces. But I don't have a mesh. Even in the last dozens of moves, which can be predicted, there is basically no possibility of white going short. What's more, in the process of Li Xiaoqiang's "breaking the sky", his own white son was not completely stable. There is also the question of life and death!

This is actually the potential risk of white!

That's how fun the game is Go. It is full of dialectics, and no matter how good the means, there are advantages, and there must be disadvantages. Chess at a high level revolves around such a thing.

For example, this one. After Li Xiaoqiang made that move, the two sides battled wits and courage around the advantages and disadvantages of this move. A delicate offensive and defensive battle was launched.

Standing on Li Xiaoqiang's side, the later chess moves are relatively simple. A sub, "drill"! Desperately drill into each other's air. Anyway, I don't have a mesh, so being able to break 1 mesh is 1 mesh. If you break 1 more eye, you will earn 1 eye.

From the perspective of Kiki Ida: You were originally able to form a certain number of meshes on the edge just now. You don't want it now, you have to come to break my big void. Well, I'll take the number of meshes that originally belonged to you as the "entrance fee" you gave me first. Look at the number of meshes you break, is it enough for your "entry fee"......

This kind of offensive and defensive battle has nothing to do with life or death. It's just about the number of meshes. On the surface, it seems that black is attacking and white is defending. Actually, it should be white that is "drilling". Black is right to "defend".

The real attacker should actually be Li Xiaoqiang!

It must be admitted that in the next 10 moves. Li Xiaoqiang's performance is better than his opponent!

Even if his opponent is Kiki Ita. It is the imposing Ita Kiki, and it is Japan's "rookie king" Itda Kiki! In such an offensive and defensive battle. Li Xiaoqiang's performance is still better than him!

Li Xiaoqiang is not surprised by such a situation. In later generations, Kiki Ita can also be regarded as a famous figure in the Go world. Li Xiaoqiang still knows a little bit about his chess. Leave aside things like "momentum". Ituda is still a pure "Japanese stream".

There are many people who even believe that Ita is the purest and perhaps the most standard "Japanese stream". His "Japanese stream" may be purer than the six supers. There is some truth to this. In the "Six Super" chess, you can also see a variety of styles. You can get to know their different personalities. And Yitian's chess, it is very "dignified". But it basically doesn't have its own characteristics. If you want to know the purest "Japanese stream", in fact, it is the most suitable game to play Ita.

When Japanese Go arrived in Ita's generation, talent began to wither. It must be told the truth that Yi Tian's Go talent is not as good as the "Six Supers", and his Go achievements at the end of the year cannot be compared with the Six Supers. If you pull one out of the six supers, you don't have to compare the domestic record, and Yitian and others are not at the same level. Compared with the international record, Yitian is also 1 world champion. In the era when there were very few competitions in the world, except for Masao Kato, who died young, the six super leagues were basically the champions of the world.

In the Japanese chess world, Kiki Ita basically belongs to the "transitional" generation. In the era of the six superswords, there was basically nothing to do with Yitian, he was just a "soy sauce" character. When Liuchao slowly grew old, he had no advantage in the competition with Mr. Kobayashi Jue, Mr. Wang Licheng and others. Didn't show much dominance. After a short few years, the Japanese chess world has become the world of the "Heisei Four Heavenly Kings".

When Li Xiaoqiang was preparing for this game, he was not frightened by Yitian's "prestige" at all. He knew that Yitian's maturity period should be 8 to 9 years later. In the 3rd "Yingshi Cup" and the 1st "Samsung Cup", Yida reached the finals of both competitions. In both bouts, his opponent was South Korea's Yoo Chang-hyuk. At that time, the two of them launched what was known as the "$800,000 Great Scramble". Before the "financial turmoil" of 98, South Korea's currency had not depreciated, and the prize money of the "Samsung Cup" was still very high. As a result, one person won a game. $800,000 in prize money was shared. At that time, it was Yitian's peak.

And now Yitian is obviously still in the growth stage. This is also in line with the characteristics of Japanese chess players. Li Xiaoqiang has always been a little strange. Such a Japanese chess player in the "growth period". How could he win 6 consecutive victories in the ring and once became the "Li Shifo Buster".

In the next game of chess, Li Xiaoqiang seemed to vaguely know that he had an answer.

In the offensive and defensive battles triggered by that step of "touching", Yitian did not show a superior level. Li Xiaoqiang even thinks that in this contact battle, he seems to have scored again. Li Xiaoqiang desperately drilled into Yitian's big air, and Yitian didn't seem to have any good way to stop it.

Li Xiaoqiang also knew in his heart that when the number of eyes he broke was greater than the "entry fee". Your goal will be achieved, and you can collect your troops. White "drilled" very happily, "drilled" very highly. When you are about to achieve your goal. Li Xiaoqiang made a casual move, and he wanted to continue to "make a cheap move". It was such a casual move, and he was caught by Yitian. He began to fight back!

As soon as his counterattack move was shot, Li Xiaoqiang immediately realized the problem. So he began to take the long exam.

It should be said that Li Xiaoqiang's move is not a casual move. He just wanted to get a little cheaper first. He took the next step

"Thorn".

In a "single jump" in the center of black. Li Xiaoqiang went to "stab" it. Or rather, "peep".

Such a "cheap start" is all too common in Go. Both in professional and amateur chess games. Such "thorns" happen every day, and they are completely large-scale goods.

Such a "thorn" is said to be "cheaper first", but in fact, "cheap" is very limited. In many chess games, it is not clear whether it is cheap or not. "Cheap" is not necessarily available, but "first-hand" seems to be a certainty. For such a "stab", black if it should not. The future is "crossed" by white. Then the black pieces will form the legendary "split" in Go.

When playing Go, "splitting" must be avoided. There are many people who believe that "splitting" is even more difficult to accept than "dead chess". Indeed, if there is a crack type. The chess pattern is definitely fragmented, and the sub-effect is definitely very low. For example, if such a shape is "crossed" by someone, it will also be two subs. Then the sub-effect of these two subs. It's not the same at all.

Li Xiaoqiang thought that this move was an "absolute first move", so he went to "stab" it. It's a pity that he took it for granted. It's a bit wishful thinking. When the opponent starts to fight back. He realized the seriousness of the problem.

Black ignores this "stab". Yi Tian made a "town head" and preemptively attacked a big dragon that White had just formed.

Don't blame Li Xiaoqiang for not noticing the life and death of his big dragon. In fact, the dragon is safe. Even if black makes the first move, the big dragon of white will easily go home. In fact, it is because of this "back door". That's why Li Xiaoqiang is a little relaxed.

Of course, Yitian also knows about this "back door", but this is what he wants. He wanted the big dragon of white to go home. And Li Xiaoqiang's long exam, in fact, he didn't want to bring his big dragon home.

Isn't that a little weird? No, it's not surprising at all, when playing Go, such things happen quite often.

This "back door" actually existed from the beginning, and both sides of the game knew it. But no one in front of them played chess in this place. Li Xiaoqiang won't connect, and Yitian didn't block it. This is because this place is a "saline land", and no matter who plays chess, there is no mesh in this place.

At the time of "making eyes", the sub-effect is already very low, so what about "connection"? , its efficiency is not as good as even "making eyes". If you make an eye, there are at least one or two eye chess, so the "connection" may not even have one eye chess.

For chess without "goals", no one is willing to play. In turn, force your opponent to play such a move. is the real cleverness.

Li Xiaoqiang was in the process of "drilling" just now, of course, he had to pay attention to the life and death of his big dragon. In order not to "connect" home. I must hope that in the process of "drilling", I will naturally make two eyes. And Yitian didn't dare to break his eyes easily. Because in general, the "eye-breaking" chess is purely from the point of view of the number of meshes. It's definitely just a single official, and there is no efficiency.

In fact, the big dragon of white already has an iron eye. Li Xiaoqiang also calculated that if black chess blocks his way back, it is not difficult for him to make the second eye in the process of "drilling".

But now black does not block the way back, he is just the "head of the town". He won't let you "drill" anymore. He asks you to go home with you on the roll......

Li Xiaoqiang carefully judged, if he even went home at this time, then he would definitely suffer a big loss. Then it's better to take that step and "break in". You must know that the number of black chess pieces is really not enough to pay the "entry fee". And even if you go home, you will definitely have to fall behind, and people will make up for that step of "thorn" again. Li Xiaoqiang is equivalent to taking a step as a "single official" at the most critical time. This is unacceptable to him.

If you don't connect, it seems that you can only work on the spot, Li Xiaoqiang also calculated. It's no problem to work, but it seems that it might as well connect to go home. If you want to do work, you may hit the black chess thick, and then the "stab" you made just now may end up in nothing.

That's right, you may be able to get a head start. It can also make people's homes appear "cracked". However, this "split type" should also be divided into occasions. If you hit someone thick, that place is the range of their potential. It's good that people are "cracked", but what about their own? That's basically the "dead type". You two dead sons, what's the use of rushing people into a "split type"?

You can't even go home, you can't work on the spot. So is it possible to force a break through the encirclement of black? In the process of continuing to "drill", I make the second eye. This seems to be the third way. Li Xiaoqiang did a lot of calculations around this.

In the laboratory, a lot of calculations were also carried out around this. There are a lot of reference diagrams. This seems to be the only way to do it at the moment. But after all, it was black that made the first move, and it was not impossible for white to break through the encirclement, but if it was blocked by others, it was impossible to return home. For a while, I couldn't see White's second clear eye position.

"Is this game of chess going to bet on the big dragon?"

In the research room, so everyone has a grim expression. The grim expressions of the Chinese chess players are certain. Originally, the situation was very good, but now it has fallen to the point where it is necessary to "bet on the big dragon". This is certainly not what everyone wants to see. And according to everyone's analysis, Dalong may be less than 5 percent of the work.

On the Japanese side, Eio Sakata and Mr. Shuizo Awaji also had grim expressions. For this situation of "gambling on the big dragon", it is generally believed that it is easy to cure orphans and difficult to kill. Although this game seems to be a little more difficult to do. But black is not to be taken lightly. Sakata-senpai was muttering:

"Where is the key to solving this situation......

Is the key in Li Xiaoqiang's hand?

Li Xiaoqiang's long exam continues. Everyone knows that he is looking for the key to victory. Will he be able to find it? That's why people think so.

It's already half past four in the afternoon.

"Xiaoqiang is almost counting the seconds. Hasn't he thought about it yet? ”

I don't know who came up with such a sentence, and everyone's eyes are on the direction of the game room.

When he was about to enter the countdown, Li Xiaoqiang put his hand into the chess box. He took out a white seed. He hit the white piece on the board with a very standard gesture. Then he glanced up at Kiki Ita.

Yi Tian was obviously a little surprised by this move, and he stared at this move deadly, as if he wanted to see through the intention of this move.

Yitian also fell into the long exam.

When this move is passed to the laboratory. So everyone was a little surprised. But no one jumps to conclusions. Indeed, such a mid-belly battle is very complicated, and sometimes it is impossible to tell whether it is good or bad based on feeling alone. Of course, in this research room, there are several people who "feel special". They reacted quickly.

"Haha, it's "touch" again. But it's a strange place. He actually touched someone's back. I'm sure it must be a good move, as long as Xiaoqiang plays this kind of unexpected move. That must be good chess! I'm sure ......."

There is no doubt that this must be Zhang Zhidong Zhang Da reporter. This is the No. 1 staunch "small strong fan" in China. Indeed, at least until now, Li Xiaoqiang has not let him down.

The second reaction was Chen Chaoyue's nine sections. He helped his eyes, and his eyes lit up:

"It's like, it's like...... It's really not a loss to be a descendant of ancient chess......"

As an expert in the study of ancient Chinese chess, he saw this seemingly very strange "bump". What did he remember? Is it that the Huanglong Shiqi Saint touched the move made by Zhou Donghou at a "supercelebrity level"? Probably not, because in ancient Chinese chess, it is difficult to say in other fields, only in the field of mid-belly combat. There are just too many such tactics.

In this field, whether it is the Japanese "flooring" or the later "fast food Go". Certainly not more than their heights!

The third person to react was Mr. Eio Sakata. As Japan's "King of Wonderful Hands", he once again repeated the same old tune:

"It's a worthwhile trip, and this trip to China is definitely worth it. I thought I would be satisfied when I saw the first step, but I really didn't expect to see such a rich step again. Yitian lost unjustly......"

In Mr. Sakata's heart, he was almost sentenced to death. At about the same time as Mr. Sakata, it was Nie Whirlwind Nine Sections who reacted.

Nie Whirlwind Nine Sections, who likes abandoned sons and transformations!

However, he cares about chaos, although he already knows what Li Xiaoqiang wants to do. But he didn't jump to conclusions. He quickly walked to the chessboard. His tone was tinged with excitement. Indeed, his instincts told him that it might be a good move:

"Hurry up, everybody, come and swing. Xiaoqiang is going to abandon his son, he is going to abandon Dalong! I really didn't expect it, the 50-purpose big dragon he said to give up, he really gave up. After the conversion, did he judge the situation clearly? …… Well, since he dares to come out, I guess he must have figured it out, he must have figured it out......"

Has Li Xiaoqiang figured it out?

In the game room, Li Xiaoqiang sat quietly by the chessboard. He was waiting for Yitian's response. He was sure he had figured it out.

Yes, unprecedented conviction!

The chess game is still going on, and Yitian is still doing the best efforts.

Li Xiaoqiang waited for victory to come. (To be continued......)
