By this time Southamp had returned to King's Landing, and was beside Oran, and he felt bad when he saw that the Welshman he had bought was not beside Sals.

At this moment, King's Landing has moved in with a large number of new residents, who have built wooden houses, and the sky is full of smoke and dust, and the people are buzzing.

Sals, who entered it, felt that in another two or three years, it would become a bustling town.

Oran asked Sals to prepare food for Sals, and then took it to his study, and the two looked at each other.

Beside Oran stood Southamp.

Outside the door, it was Nanding and the soldiers, Sals had no weapons on him, and he was very strong, and as long as Orlan shouted, the people outside would push the door in and break his body into pieces, without having to do it himself.

The study room has a sand table, a king's chess, and several decorations.

This is the future area of the Lord's Hall, so the Oran Room is already taking shape.

Sals ate slowly, but Southamp didn't want to be so leisurely, and asked, "Lord Sals, should you explain, what happened?"

Sals gestured to the "king's chess" on the other table and said, "Your Excellency, let's 'play a game', and you will know everything you want from it." ”

King's chess originated in Tianzhu and was introduced to Persia in the seventh century, and later to Constantine, Italy and other places.

Charlemagne brought the game back to the Franks when he was crowned "Emperor of the Romans" in an Italian church in 800 A.D.

Kings, courtiers, castles, bishops, knights, infantry.

On the black and white chessboard, these six seed forces are distributed to take down the opponent's king as the final goal.

Adult man, in the shadow of the sword and sword,

Women and children reveal their wisdom in every inch.

Charlemagne's queen loved the game, so later in the Franks, the "palace minister" was changed to "queen", which also showed Charlemagne's determination to reduce the power of Fang Bo and expand the royal power at that time.

Later, this game spread to England, and in just twenty years, from the aristocracy to the commoners, they could play a few hands.

In the Kingdom of Wessex, the game is called one of the seven skills that knights should learn (The Seven Arts of Knighthood).

"Alfred" is the number one chess player in the kingdom today.

……

Orlan asked Southamp to play chess, and according to the convention, the one with high status played white first, and black came later.

Infantry starts and can advance one or two squares.

Orlan pushed the "infantry" out two squares, signaling the beginning of the offensive.

After reading this step, Sals replied with the same means, and said, "This move, just like you sent someone to buy my subordinates and got a fake letter, trying to control the situation, but this is only the beginning of the chess game, the damage is limited, and you must see the subsequent changes and methods." ”

Nanamp was stunned, "You!"

Sals poured a glass of ale and replied, "The people who follow me are all meticulous, and I know all their births, experiences, interests, and preferences, but I can catch any changes in the details of my eyes, and I have put a lot of effort into making them all receive my blessings.

When you persecuted him with foul words, and seduced him with empty words, the letter was in my hands in an instant, and the only thing that can be commended is that the handwriting is still somewhat desirable. ”

Southamp looked nervously at Oran, "Your Excellency!"

Sals sneered, Southamp almost called for someone to come in, but Orlan waved him to wait outside.

There were only two people left in the room, a suspicious lord and a mad knight.

"Interesting, this game has just been played, let's go on." After Orlan finished speaking, he launched the second step, and he was still marching, and it was the infantry next to the infantry just now who advanced two squares, and his own camp on the chessboard became "two soldiers in parallel".

Since Sals was also a soldier at the beginning, the two soldiers confronted each other just now, and because of the rules of soldiers eating obliques.

This will form the infantry that Orlan is behind, and it will be eaten without any protection against Sals's middle soldier, forming a situation of "abandoning the army" at the beginning.

"I know what, Ben Bo can give up a lot of 'Zili', why do you finish this game with me!"

Oran slapped the table, the momentum was overwhelming, and Nanding heard the voice, pushed the room open, and put his hand on the sword handle.

But seeing that the scene was calm, there was no follow-up, and then Orlan said "stand down", and he returned to the house and continued to wait.

"It's a disgusting hand." After Sals finished speaking, he immediately ate this pawn and said, "According to your idea, if I eat this chess piece, my middle pawn will go off the rails, and at that time, you will have several ways to move the subforce, such as moving the 'queen' or mobilizing the 'knight'?"

It's Orlan's turn again, and he was robbed of white by Sals, and he didn't know what to return for a while, what to go next?

The movement of slapping the table just now obviously did not suppress Sals's mood.

"Lord Oran, I admire you and what you have done - such a bastard!

It would be better if we could kill King Ella that day, wouldn't it?"

"Hahaha!"

The laughter spread, Sals's face became more and more strange, his words were already crazy, and there was still a little image of a handsome and upright gentleman.

Sals's hallucinations reappeared, and he looked at Oran, his face contorted, "I also saw that the flames were burning on you, and countless bones were stepped on under your feet, and the temples and churches were all turned into smoke. ”

"A few days ago, Southamp wanted to buy you, you said, 'Knights don't serve the second master', and now, you say kill the king instead? I want to dig out your heart and see if you are possessed by the devil. ”

Sals is inferior to himself, but Oran can't take the initiative, he hates it in his heart.

At this point, there were several more variations on the board, and Orlan chose to advance the infantry in the right rear of the middle soldier.

But this time, it was only pushed one square and turned into an oblique line, on the one hand to protect the middle soldiers, and on the other hand, to open up the channel for the dispatch of the "bishop".

"Yes, that's it, Your Excellency, you have a special start, but the process is steady, waiting for people to make mistakes to attack, followed by a long calculation, waiting.

Zili began to exchange, and when the advantage was timed, a large number of sub-forces were also exchanged, and even in order to open up the situation, he gave up countless sub-forces, and would only take the first step to replace the enemy's king and declare victory.

But this is the rule of the chessboard, you replace all the sub-forces, take the king, or the winner,

Back in the dirty world, you take the enemy king, and there is no force to annex it, and the enemy will only set up a new king and then kill you.

It was my grandfather and father who taught me how to play king's chess, and I played game after game with them when I was three years old.

I soon discovered that they were afraid of the nobility!

Because they're civilians, they're all studying the 'infantry start', and they're even abandoning the army like you.

They regarded the infantry as the most useless and inferior thing, just to let the knights and bishops go out quickly, so that these chess pieces could walk the chessboard majestically and show their skills.

Therefore, their fate was tragic, and in the end, they were also sacrificed as outcasts. ”

Speaking of this, Sals gritted his teeth.
