Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 527 War Game
Playing chess together has a long history on the mountain and sea continent.

But there is only one kind of chess that can be connected with the art of war.

Hearing Ji Jiashu's words, the memory in Ying Baoyue's mind revived, and he instantly understood what chess he was talking about.

She looked at Ji Jiashu and asked, "The comparison... is war chess?"

Ji Jiashu nodded with an extremely complicated expression.

Ying Baoyue was also slightly taken aback.

Wargame.

Although it has such a special name, in fact, this so-called war game is essentially Go.

More specifically, this is a kind of Go specially improved for practitioners.

The connection between Go and war is actually a tradition of my previous dynasty.

There were frequent wars in the previous dynasty. In such a realistic situation, practitioners have associated chess with war since a long time ago.Under the improvement of Emperor Taizu of this dynasty, Emperor Yingdi, after the birth of the more complex practitioner Go, the battle of Go has since become one of the important tools for cultivating soldiers' talents.

"A brief look at Go shows how to use soldiers. The three-foot game is the battlefield."

The "Go Fu" written by Ma Rong, a doctor of the former dynasty, wrote a game scene in which the chessboard is regarded as a battlefield and the game of chess is used to fight with soldiers.

The chess field is like a battlefield.

"Chen Ju's soldiers are here, the two enemies are evenly matched, the clumsy will have no merit, and the weak will perish first."

Many military generals who left their names in the previous dynasty were outstanding players in two battlefields, the battlefield and the chessboard.

But in the eyes of Emperor Taizu Emperor Yingdi, this kind of Go is just a game played by ordinary people.

Ying Baoyue took a deep breath.

The rules of Go handed down from the previous dynasty are very similar to the rules of modern Go, and the most important chessboard is the nineteen chessboard that Ying Baoyue saw in his previous life.

Before the Qian Dynasty, seventeen chessboards were used on the Go board.

By the time of the former dynasty, the chessboard was increased to nineteen, "360 ones, imitating the degrees of the sky."

That is to say, the lines on the chessboard are all nineteen vertically and vertically, and the nineteen vertically and horizontally each line segment divides the chessboard into 360 intersection points, and the chess pieces are increased to 180 pieces for both black and white sides.

This is also the game of Go played by ordinary people today.

The so-called war chess is a further enhanced version based on the nineteen-way Go.

After the fall of the previous dynasty and the establishment of the Qin Empire, a large number of practitioners began to appear under the birth of Emperor Taizu's practice system. Emperor Taizu himself was good at playing chess and was also an outstanding general.

It was such a general who looked at the current nineteen-lane chessboard while playing chess, and thought that such a chessboard was not suitable for practitioners.

With the support of true essence, the mental and physical strength of practitioners far exceeds that of ordinary people. Under such conditions, Emperor Ying felt that it was a pity to still use the nineteen chessboards. In addition, he also thought that the current chessboards are too small to be used for anything. A large military formation cannot satisfy him, the founding emperor who lived his life as a soldier.

So under these reasons, Emperor Taizu designed the game of war, increasing the original 29-lane Go board to 840 lanes, 420 intersections, and [-] black and white chess pieces on each side.

This is a very scary thing.

On the Go board where the total number of intersections of chessboard lines increases exponentially with each additional chessboard line, adding ten chessboards in one breath is not as simple as adding a few lines.

With only 360 intersection points, Go can generate countless changes, and when added to 840 points, there are as many points on the entire Go board as there are stars.

The chessboard added in this way is really as big as a sand table for marching formations. She was shocked when she saw it for the first time.

Such a huge chessboard and terrifying formation changes can only be tolerated by practitioners.

There is such a chessboard in the former Qin Yuyan Province of Efang Palace, but she rarely uses it because she has no equal opponent.

Of course, it's not because her realm is too high, everything is just the opposite, it's because her realm is too low.

That chessboard belonged to her master Da Si Ming Lin Shubai, and the man Taizu Emperor Yingdi who created this crazy game.

Before, she couldn't compare with these two in terms of realm or ability to march.

Being a dragon and a phoenix among people is by no means in vain.

Every time she saw Master and Emperor Ying playing chess in Efang Palace, she felt as if she saw a real war.Just watching the battle can make people breathless. Although she couldn't play, she was indeed the only one in Afang Palace who was able to watch the battle at that time.

If ordinary practitioners see it, even if they just watch from the sidelines, they will be exhausted until the end game.

That's right, run out of real yuan.

Ying Baoyue raised her head and looked at He Lancheng, who was staring straight at her.

Although Emperor Ying and her master were good at playing chess back then, they didn't play often in Efang Palace.

Without him, it is just because it is too time-consuming to play a close match with such a chessboard.

Ordinary Go with 29 chessboards can be played for three days and three nights, not to mention the 30 Go today.Although Emperor Ying stipulated in the rules that each person has two hours for the long test, and if the time exceeds, they must play fast chess for [-] seconds, but when they meet an evenly matched opponent, they can still play for several days.

As busy people, the Great Qin Emperor and the Great Qin State Teacher naturally wouldn't have that time often.

And it is such endless battles that make war chess a kind of ability that not only requires marching and formation, but also a duel that requires the competition of true essence.

Only the true energy of a practitioner can sustain such a long and exhausting battle, and practitioners with weak true energy will naturally lose in such a competition.

Only war chess is a duel that cannot be challenged beyond the next level.

Looking at the way He Lancheng stared at her quietly, Ying Baoyue knew what he wanted to say.

Practice together, the realm is the highest.

In ordinary actual combat, she can still rely on her combat experience that is many times higher than that of ordinary people to make up for the lack of realm. overwhelming disadvantage.

It is better to say that facing low-level practitioners, there is no need for any tactics at all, as long as you choose to defend with all your strength in the prologue and just prolong the chess game.

After a long time, it will naturally wear down or even kill the opponent.

Apart from the rules mentioned earlier, wargames have no total time limit.

It's been a long marathon.

It is impossible for her at the seventh rank to win against the practitioner at the sixth rank if no one releases the water.

And if she insists on not admitting defeat and staying in front of the chessboard, she will indeed be consumed to death in front of the chessboard.

"Do you know that in the next second round, if you don't know your opponent, you may even die on the chessboard." He Lancheng had indeed said this to her before.

"So..." Ying Baoyue looked at He Lancheng and asked, "What you said just now means that in the second round of the individual battle, Beihan Pavilion will design you to fight against me. And if I Accepting your surrender, you will choose to put water on me in the chess game, is that what you mean?"

He Lancheng was stiff for a moment when he heard the words, but then he nodded.

Sure enough, she understood quickly enough, and even revealed all the things he didn't say.

Although he is an abandoned son of Beihan Pavilion, the level of Shanlun is indeed the highest among all the disciples brought out by Xu Bingqing this time.

The person who consumed her to death in front of the chessboard was none other than him.

With Beihan Pavilion's means, whether it is manipulating the game or manipulating the draw, a battle between him and her is inevitable.

"At that time..." He Lancheng looked at Ying Baoyue and was about to speak, but he saw that the girl in front of him was also looking at him quietly, with emotions that he couldn't understand in her eyes as quiet as lake water.

"In short, thank you for thinking of this step, but..." Ying Baoyue looked at him and smiled, "I think that Beihan Pavilion will send me to be my opponent at that time, and I'm afraid it won't be you."
