45 Death and life

Yang Zheng didn't know that he was in the game.

He only felt that every step he took was as heavy as carrying a mountain on his back.

"Don't rush, think slowly." The little old man looked at Yang Zheng, who was getting slower and slower, and he said with a smile.

Endgame competition, the competition is patience.

The more seemingly clear the endgame, the more complex the game.

For example, in the famous folk endgame "The Great Expedition to the West", just from the chess surface, the red side as the first hand has the advantage of two guns and two rooks, while on the contrary, the black side as the back hand only has a single gun and a single rook, although it seems that the red side has the advantage and is the first move, but in the end, the two sides can only regret to become a draw.

Even the Seven Stars Gathering, commonly known as the king of the endgame, is not as thought-provoking as the folk endgame of "The Great Expedition to the West".

Although the little old man's endgame is not as good as "The Great Expedition to the West" and "Seven Star Gathering", he skillfully lengthened the battle line and improved the accuracy of the game at the cost of sacrificing computing power.

However, this kind of endgame is only limited to the current semi-professional game, and in later chess competitions, which increasingly focused on rules and time ratios, games of more than 50 hands were basically limited by rules, and it was difficult for the audience to appear.

The game was very long, and the referee deliberately extended the time stipulated in the game.

He also wanted to see how this game would end.

There are more and more people, like a mass of uneven thick ink swaying wantonly between heaven and earth.

All of them craned their necks and stared at the game, some of them frowning because they thought it was an unsolvable game, and some of them put themselves in it, looking at the game and fantasizing about how they would play it.

Yang Zheng also saw the clue, if it is in the professional arena, there is a 99% probability that this game is a draw, but in the current semi-professional game, if his horse can be used well, he still has the hope of defeating the opponent.

But this premise must be that his own chess strength must suppress the opposite side of a large rank, unfortunately, now he and the little old man's chess strength is similar, or even slightly inferior to the opponent.

Instead of fighting the mistakes of the opposite side or the probability of your own extraordinary performance, it is better to lay out step by step steadily.

The defender of the endgame is actually also the dominant side, at least in terms of sub-force, each of his chess pieces is not a useless chess piece.

The cooperation of the single phase and the small soldiers is like a net, leaving Yang Zheng's horse trapped in a mud puddle, in a dilemma.

If you want to break free from this net, you must pay the price of exchanging pieces for pieces, but there are not many chess pieces on Yang Zheng's side, and changing pieces is a matter worth studying.

The abandoned piece in the endgame also has a new term in the continuous research, he is not only "change", but also has the meaning of "shift", when there are not many chess pieces on the chess surface, the biggest role of an abandoned piece is not only to "kill the key piece on the opposite side", is to let the opponent's key piece move to a position that is not a threat to himself.

When Yang Zheng had a choice of planning to use the abandoned pawn in exchange for the horse's vitality, although the little old man felt a little awkward, he thought about it again and again, and also chose to believe in his own experience.

When he also ate this pawn, Yang Zheng's horse escaped the big net in front of him, which was naturally expected by the little old man.

However, he expressed his high appreciation for Yang Zheng's behavior of abandoning his son, and he had not seen the abandonment of "shifting" for a long time.

Lao Zhou was also a little surprised that Yang Zheng would escape the little old man's first net in this way, because he had never taught him about the abandonment of shifting.

But even if he escapes the little old man's first net, the next endgame is the real highlight of the whole game.

Before Yang Zheng could breathe down, the little old man actually set up Zuo Shi, who had not moved since the beginning, leaving enough space for the old man.

The names of chess endgames are also mostly named according to the outcome of the game.

The reason why Ding Jiangshan is called Ding Jiangshan is because his final ending is that a single horse will die, although it is said that a single horse will die, but it also echoes the rule that the general will win first.

And the little old man went to the corporal first, also in order to prevent the other side from facing each other in advance, and then he would do it later.

Yang Zheng also fell into the little old man's second net after this hand.

Yang Zheng took a deep breath and rearranged the chess game, and he also pinned all his hopes on the horse.

Yang Zheng is a good horse player, but also good at calculation, after ten moves, his single horse again with a few chess pieces to re-enter the opposite formation.

But in the face of the haunting single phase, his horse could only retreat and advance.

This uncomfortable feeling also made him see that the little old man opposite was going to fight a protracted battle with him.

His current mood is also very delicate, and he can't say that he is uncomfortable or excited, nor can he say that he is humiliated or helpless.

He looked at the annoying single phase opposite, thinking about how to cut off this single phase and make the horse checkmate.

What he thought was also right, because in this endgame, the most critical chess piece is his single horse.

But after playing for a long time, he suddenly found that if he focused on a single horse, it would be difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.

Because the attacker will always have to work harder than the defender.

Ten hands again, Yang Zheng already felt that his physical strength was a little strained.

It seemed that a quick battle was going to be solved, he thought, but the speed at which he landed was slower than before.

The little old man on the opposite side looked at Yang Zheng, who was getting slower and slower, but he could bear it.

Because the current Yang Zheng has already broken his record in the past few decades, he has dragged on by fifteen more hands.

The strange old man, who was already indifferent to the outcome of the game, looked at Yang Zheng, who was not in a good state on the other side, and also thought in his heart that as long as he played ten more hands, he would admit defeat.

He also knows how to distinguish between the important and the obvious, and understands that if a person uses his brain excessively, it may affect his future.

He was born of love, and finally found that he seemed to be a bit of a scoundrel, torturing a young man in this way.

At the moment when the little old man decided, Yang Zheng was in good spirits as if he had returned to the light.

The little old man looked at Yang Zheng's energetic hand, his eyes were round, and his face was full of disbelief.

Because Yang Zheng actually took the initiative to go to the horse, he planned to exchange the horse for an elephant.

Is this self-defeating?

Not only did he think so, but Lao Zhou and many chess friends in the audience thought so, and they were quite disappointed, obviously Yang Zheng had just shown his experience-making and backbone and even perseverance.

But this hand, like a tiger-headed novelist, directly punctured everyone's illusions before.

"What stupidity!" The little old man looked at this hand, and his previous good feelings were gone.

The original decision was also made after Yang Zheng's hand, and it came to an end in smoke.

He did not hesitate, nor did he relent.

He immediately replaced the horse with a phase, and was then replaced by Yang Zheng with a pawn.

He raised his head and was about to wait for Yang Zheng's "self-abandonment", but he found Yang Zheng's meaningful smile.

He seemed to realize something, and he suddenly lowered his head again.

"This kid!" The little old man scolded with a smile, he seemed to see that Yang Zheng's hand wanted to put himself to death and live later.
