Chapter 44: I had to go to the chessboard

Listening to Liu Handong's refutation, Xiahou Yuan said impatiently: "Hmph! The ignorant child on the other side knows what to yell there! If you have the ability, you can let the horse attack it, and I will immediately let you try the unique battle formation of our Xiahou family-the strength of the chessboard array. All the soldiers listened to the order, released the battle spirit, and set up a chessboard array! ”

I saw that every soldier of the Xiahou clan suddenly burst out of a golden battle qi, and then quickly formed a large cube-shaped battle qi cloud in the high sky, covering the area within a radius of five miles.

Immediately afterwards, Xiahou Yuan also released the true qi of the "Golden Silkworm Gong" he had cultivated, and integrated it into the battle qi group in the air. After a while, the true qi of "Golden Silkworm Gong" was completely integrated with the battle qi group of the Xiahou army.

Immediately afterwards, Xiahou Yuan held his divine weapon tightly with both hands, a seven-foot-long "Heavenly Silkworm Knife", and swung it vigorously towards the plain ground in front of the two army camps.

In an instant, at the four corners of the cube-shaped battle qi cloud in the sky, four golden pillars of light shot down from the sky and fell to the ground. Then, the two adjacent pillars of light quickly extended towards each other on the ground, and finally connected to each other, forming a huge golden square on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the four sides of the golden square were divided into seventeen golden rays at equal distances, and shot perpendicular to their respective sides. These gold wires, which correspond to each other, are finally connected in the middle of the square.

After the ten rays of light emitted from each of the four sides were connected in the middle, a huge Go board covering a radius of five miles was formed on the ground, which was divided horizontally and vertically by nineteen golden rays at equal distances.

Seeing that the Go chessboard on the ground had been generated, Xiahou Yuan spoke confidently: "Ignorant kid opposite, can you understand the characteristics of the Xiahou family's unique military formation, the chessboard formation?" I don't know if you are a yellow-mouthed child, so let Uncle Xiahou introduce it to you in detail. ”

"The chessboard array must be arranged only after the true qi of our Xiahou family's unique exercise "Golden Silkworm Gong" is fused with the battle qi. After the chessboard array is successfully arranged, a huge special Go board can be formed on the ground for the two coaches to play Go. ”

"The chess pieces, on the other hand, take every 100 people of their respective armies as a whole, and treat every 100 people as a chess piece. The coaches of both sides then start playing against each other according to the rules of the game of Go. Before the official move, you need to first inject the battle qi into the battle qi cloud above the Go chessboard, and the two battle qi will form a neutral hybrid battle qi cloud after the battle qi of the two sides merges. ”

"When the game is officially over, the victor's generals will be able to control the fused mixed battle qi cloud and unleash battle qi skills on the losing side's position to attack. The generals of the losing side, because their own soldiers' battle qi cannot be recovered to form a battle qi group, they cannot release the battle qi skills to resist, and can only passively accept the baptism of the victorious side's battle qi skills. ”

"Not only that, but the winning side can also control the mixed battle qi as long as it wants, and wipe out all the soldiers who have fallen on the chessboard as pawns of the losing side in an instant."

"Little doll, you only have 70,000 horses, and we have 80,000 horses, now you only need a fair game, as long as your chess strength can beat me, you can dispose of my 80,000 horses almost at will."

"In this way, you can completely annihilate the main force of my Xiahou clan at once, and Jizhou and Youzhou can also be included in the sphere of influence of your Red Star Army in a very short time. Little doll, your Uncle Xiahou has given you a big advantage, you have to take advantage of this opportunity. ”

"Of course, I have a way to stop you from playing this game! Remember what I said, and I can send a large army to capture the people around me at any time. If you agree to play this game, I will continue to kill a hundred people every hour until you agree. Don't let the people who trust you down. ”

"Actually, even if you are allowed to attack directly, my chessboard formation still has a safe chance of winning. Our Xiahou's "Golden Silkworm Gong" has super protective toughness, if there is no more than three times the amount of combat energy of our side, all of your attack skills will be doubled by our "Golden Silkworm Gong" battle qi cloud and reflected back, then it will become your side to attack yourself with your own doubled combat qi skills, isn't that kind of picture funny? ”

"Now, your side only has 70,000 people, while our side has 80,000 people, so your hard attack will not be able to break my chessboard array."

"Oh, by the way, are you thinking that the Dragon Ring Ruler in your hand can double the attack effect, so even with the battle strength of 70,000 people, you can break my chessboard array? Then I tell you, it's naΓ―ve to think like this, because the checkerboard array is immune to amplified attacks, so you must attack with at least three times the amount of battle energy on your side to break my checkerboard array! ”

"So, I'm not afraid of your onslaught at all, so why do I want to play against you on the chessboard? Because my chessboard array only has the characteristic of passive attack, as long as you don't launch a battle qi technique attack, my chessboard array will not have the ability to actively attack your side. ”

"If you keep confronting me like this, won't it become a big star, and the two sides will waste time? I don't want to be in such trouble, so you'll have to play against me on the board to divide the winner, and the winning side will be able to solve the other at once. ”

"Moreover, I also said that after your side's battle qi is integrated into the battle qi group of the chessboard array, before the result of the game is out, both of us will not be able to control the neutral mixed battle qi group, which is absolutely fair and just, and the victory or defeat only depends on the chess strength of each chess player."

"Anyone who knows about our Xiahou Clan's chessboard array knows this characteristic of the chessboard array, which is absolutely true and reliable. Little doll, I warn you once again, if you retreat with your troops, the people in the vicinity will suffer because of you. Then, the good reputation that your Red Star Army has built up with great difficulty will be ruined. So, you have to play this game with me. ”

Listening to Xiahou Yuan's words, Liu Handong couldn't help but feel very conflicted. After all, Zhuge Ming had instructed himself not to play against Xiahou Yuan on the chessboard. However, if you don't agree to the other party's game of chess, then the people in the neighborhood will really suffer!

Seeing that Liu Handong seemed to want to agree to Xiahou Yuan's request to play against him, Sima Yan behind him hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade and said, "Lord, don't agree to Xiahou Yuan's request to play against him." Although it seems to be a fair game of Go, this is actually Xiahou Yuan's real trick. ”

"Their Xiahou family has studied chess for more than 200 years, and their rich experience in Go is truly unparalleled in the world. Xiahou Yuan is one of the four great Go saints today, known as the East Sage. Today, except for the other three Go saints, namely the Southern Sage Zhou Yu, the Western Sage Zhuge Ming and the Northern Sage Xie Xuan, who can compete with Xiahou Yuan on the chessboard, it is no exaggeration to say that no one is Xiahou Yuan's Go opponent anymore. ”

"Now, Zhuge Junshi has not accompanied the army on the Northern Expedition, and we don't have a Go saint-level chess player here at all, how can he be his opponent Xiahou Yuan? If you agree to play against him, you will fall for his trick! Sima Yan finally sighed earnestly.

"Yes! Oh, yes! Lord, you must not fall for Xiahou Yuan's tricks! The surrounding Red Star Army generals dissuaded Liu Handong one after another.

Liu Handong looked at the worried eyes of the generals around him, and after a little contemplation, he said: "I understand everyone's worries very well. But, comrades-in-arms, do we have a way out? As they said, we don't have a choice. ”

"Hard attack, our current battle strength cannot break the opponent's chessboard formation; If you don't play this game, the people around you will be slaughtered by the other side. We, the Red Star soldiers, must not do anything that endangers the people, even indirectly to endanger the people, and we must not violate the principles we have set. ”

"Comrades-in-arms, let's analyze the current situation from a different angle. If our parents, wives and children, brothers and sisters live around us, and their lives are so threatened, should we also retreat? ”

"If we choose to retreat today, then sooner or later Xiahou Yuan will attack Qingzhou, and it will really be our relatives who will suffer at that time. Therefore, in order for our relatives not to be slaughtered by Xiahou Yuan in the future, we must defeat him today. ”

"Besides, have you forgotten? I have received the guidance of Zhuge Daxian and the person who has been returned to the destiny of teaching the method of salvation, how can I not break a small chessboard array? You don't have to worry and doubt, even if you play Go with Xiahou Yuan, the victory will definitely belong to us. ”

"To prove what I said, I will go straight down to the chessboard as one of the hundred people in the first piece. I don't believe it, just a game of Go, how can it be difficult to defeat the wisdom of Zhuge Daxian. Now you can rest assured, I can't take my life as a child's play. ”

Liu Handong looked confident and confident, and he looked at the generals around him with very calm and calm eyes. Whenever he met someone's eyes, Liu Handong nodded heavily to the other party, in order to show his absolute confidence.

In fact, at this time, Liu Handong's heart was not as calm and calm as it seemed, he was thinking: No matter what, this game of chess has to be played with Xiahou. Zhuge Daxian, I'm sorry, I can only borrow your old man's name again to stabilize the army's heart, otherwise my generals will be frightened by the name of one of the opponent's four great Go saints.

And only by going directly to the game, as a member of the chess pieces, can the worries and doubts of the soldiers be completely dispelled. Otherwise, it's not convincing.

But then again, compared to Go, I Liu Handong really don't necessarily lose. Although I had never participated in a Go rating competition in my previous life and didn't know what my true level was, I had worked hard for several years in order to improve my Go level on the Internet.

For example, I have read a lot of books such as "Appreciation of Ancient and Modern Chess Players in the Middle and Outer Periphery" and "Records of Go Masters", and there are at least thousands of games of Go games and chess games that I have memorized. So. Later, I reached the master level of Go online. Therefore, the essence of thousands of years of Go experience in the previous life is believed to be able to compete with the current Go saints.
