Chapter 377

"Hmm... In this game, until the first fifty moves, the two sides were evenly matched!

"The two sides were entangled in the upper left corner. After Tang Jiudan dealt with the white pieces in the corner, he accumulated strength and prepared to launch a fierce attack on the white dragon.

"But I didn't expect that from the 51st move on, Liu Jiudan saw that the time was right and took the lead, launching a series of attacks like a tsunami.

"At move 59, the white dragon was cut into two pieces, neither of which survived!

"Tang Jiudan weighed the pros and cons and made the first move of white chess on the right side in move 60, but Liu Jiudan immediately launched a fierce attack on the big dragon on the left side.

"Tang Jiuduan was unwilling to surrender, and used all his skills. He finally escaped with the 88th move, but unfortunately... the situation was too bad!

"Then, the situation eased a little. I thought Liu Jiudan would be ready to maintain his advantage and lead to the end.

"And Tang Jiudan should be continuing to accumulate strength, trying to find another opportunity to attack by surprise.

"But in the end, it was still Liu Jiuduan who took the initiative!

"From moves 101 to 105, one tip, one tiger, one cut, each move is aimed at the vital points of White's chess!
"White chess pieces were unable to hold on to the black chess pieces that cut off the dragon, and in the end the dragon was killed, so there was no need to play any more...

"...Brother Guangwen, do you have any opinion on this game of chess?"

"Ah? Ah..."

December 12, 21: pm, Qiantang City, China.

Zeng Guangwen, who had been live-streaming the Rookie King Contest and the Nongshim Cup recently and had wanted to take a good rest on the day when the Rookie King Contest was off, was a little confused for a moment when he heard his master suddenly cue him.

Yes, Zeng Guangwen originally planned to take a break today - after all, he has been a sparring partner and doing live broadcasts recently, and the workload is quite intense.

But who would have thought that Zeng Guangben felt that Rui Zhao had to analyze and discuss the competition situation with his teammates in the Lakeside Cup, and at the same time prepare for the Rookie King finals starting tomorrow, so he would not have time to come to him.

But who would have known... that my master really doesn't play by the rules!

Even with these two things in between, he still had the mind to come to me to watch and replay the Nongshim Cup!
It's outrageous!
"Uh……

"I think you summed it up pretty well, Queen! Nothing to add..."

Zeng Guangwen answered somewhat weakly.

"Yeah……"

The girl on the screen rarely showed a conflicted expression:

“That…Brother Guangwen.

"Are you...disgusted by me?

"Recently, when I was reviewing the situation with you via live broadcast, I felt that you expressed fewer and fewer opinions and views..."

"……ah?

"No, nothing!"

Zeng Guangwen quickly denied:
"I-I just think that you've summed it up well enough, Queen."

"But it won't work if you don't come up with some ideas of your own!"

The girl still refused to give in:

"Analyzing and communicating with others is the purpose of learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and filling in the gaps to achieve better learning results. If you keep doing this, then there is no difference between you and me reviewing alone!
"If this continues, I will have to trouble my senior brothers and sisters again in the future..."

“Ah, no, no, no, no!
"Queen! Please don't abandon me, Queen!"

Upon hearing this, Fatty Zeng, who had been able to cope with the situation somewhat, was immediately startled and even uttered a respectful title out of shock.

After being abandoned by Rui Zhao, what will I eat in the future?

Seeing that I’m about to become a new Internet celebrity, how can I let the popularity die down?

"I, I was just afraid of taking up your precious time. Actually, I want to discuss many things with you in detail..."

"Really? That's great!"

The girl's eyes lit up in the video link, and she became excited before Fatty Zeng finished speaking.

"Tell me what you think about this game first!

"Also, please tell us about the match between Man Jing and Jin Jiudan this morning!"

"Uh... Ok, ok."

Although his smile was a little stiff, Fatty Zeng still agreed reluctantly.

However, Zeng Guangwen didn't know at this time...

His good days are still to come!

...

...

"Sorry, everyone!
"It's such a shame to lose this game of chess... I'm so sorry!"

At the same time, Dongjiang Hotel.

Tang Guansheng, who had just returned to the combat meeting room, changed his usual reckless state and bowed deeply in Japanese style when he saw the coach and teammates:
“Well…it’s fine that I lost so quickly, but in the end I lost so badly!

"I actually thought about whether I should at least be thick-skinned and persevere, so as to consume some of Liu Shixian's energy... but I really can't bring myself to do it."

"It's okay, Brother Guan Sheng, I understand!"

"Hey! You better not do that. The situation is already decided and anyone can make a move at will. What can it cost? It's embarrassing!"

As the coach and captain, Jiao Kai and Lei Qi quickly pulled Tang Guansheng up and said a few words of comfort.

Although in a ring match, the first player will try to consume as much energy and strength of the opponent as possible even if the outcome is already decided. This is a basic operation.

But the use of this basic operation is also subject to corresponding restrictions - at least it cannot be too ugly.

In the three East Asian countries, Go is considered an elegant sport, so etiquette has always been considered another important component besides its competitive nature.

It is also generally considered a courtesy to recognize the situation, stop being unreasonable, and admit defeat at the right time.

Like the last game between Dai Ran and Liu Shixian, they were unwilling to drag it to the last minute even though they were about to lose ten points, let alone today's game where they were defeated and lost thirty or forty points!

Sometimes young chess players play to the end even when they are at a disadvantage of dozens of points because they are unwilling to lose. This is generally understandable.

But if an adult chess player is defeated and still tries to drag out the game without any chance of a comeback, it would really be unsightly.

But... although Jiao and Lei did not dwell on this little thing, they were not feeling relaxed now.

Do not……

It should be said that with the end of this game, the entire Chinese chess world began to become a little nervous.

The physical and mental state that Young Master Liu is currently displaying is truly astonishing!
After Dai Ran's regretful defeat yesterday, Tang Guansheng took the initiative to ask to play in the team meeting in the evening! He hoped to take advantage of the fact that Young Master Liu had already lost two games in a row and was showing signs of fatigue, and take him down in one fell swoop.

The reasons for volunteering are also relatively simple and crude:
Hen Ge thinks that Master Xiao Liu is on a roll recently. If he were to tie the record of Choi Myung-ho, the first player in the World Championship era, who won 14 consecutive games, even if he finally won the championship, it would be hard to call it a complete victory.

Seeing that Hen Ge was so resolute, Jiao Kai agreed.

But the result...

Tang Guansheng was completely defeated in this game of chess!

After fifty moves, he was completely suppressed by Young Master Liu, and within a hundred moves, he had already won the game!

What's even more heartbreaking is that in this game of chess, Young Master Liu used the mid-game attack, which is generally recognized as Hen Ge's best skill but his worst skill, to win quickly!

This put the entire Chinese team under tremendous pressure!

It was obvious that Hen Ge volunteered with the determination to end the fight in one fell swoop.

However, they were quickly defeated by their opponents and returned home empty-handed!

Having won three games in three days, the world's number one player should have been exhausted both mentally and physically. However, he did not show any sign of fatigue after winning this game. Instead, he accepted the post-match interview with a smile on his face and looked very energetic.

The Chinese team, with only two people left, now had to face a situation that seemed impossible:

Just in case, just in case.

What should we do if our entire team is defeated by Young Master Liu alone?
Although no one wanted to mention this possibility, Master Liu's perfect victory today made everyone think of this worst-case scenario...

So now, the entire conference room is filled with a subtle and strange atmosphere.

Pop, pop!

When everyone was silent, Lei Qi clapped his hands twice and said with a smile:

"But...Brother Guan Sheng, I think you are still taking it for granted!

"You were too deliberate in your early preparations today. I always felt that Young Master Liu would not take the initiative to join the attack.

"But maybe you have forgotten: three or four years ago, Young Master Liu was still famous for his strong fighting style!

"'Li doesn't attack, Liu doesn't defend', have you forgotten this saying from a few years ago?"

"Uh……"

Tang Guansheng was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head in embarrassment.

Because what Lei Qi said was indeed right.

Before Liu Shixian reached the pinnacle of chess skills, the young master of the Liu family was indeed an obvious aggressive chess player.

However, Li Zhan's overall style of play is prone to accidents, and he cannot maintain long-term stability in either the World Championships or the Nongshim Cup. Moreover, his linear calculation ability is indeed not the strongest, so Liu Shixian has changed to his current balanced style of play.

Perhaps for the current Young Master Liu, his ability in melee combat is his relatively weakest link - but that is only relative to himself.

If he really needs to draw his sword and fight, he is fully capable of doing it.

Seeing that Tang Guansheng seemed to have agreed with his statement, Lei Qi continued:
"so!

"Brother Guan Sheng, you just made some mistakes in your strategy today, and were caught off guard by Young Master Liu! It's not that scary!
"But Brother Sun, I think your chance has come!"

"Ah I?"

Sun Wukong, who was suddenly called out, was a little confused.

Lei Qi smiled and said:

"Aren't there always people who don't understand chess saying that you can't win a tough battle? But now is your best chance to prove yourself!

"Master Liu has already won three games in a row. It would be a lie to say he's not tired!
"As long as you can stop Young Master Liu from breaking Cui Minghao's record tomorrow, wouldn't that be a one-shot deal? And anyone who talks nonsense in the future can be shut up, right?"

"Eh……?"

Sun Yi blinked and thought about it...

It seems that this is really the saying!
Sun Wukong's three major pain points so far are: first, he lost to female chess players twice in the Rookie King finals; second, his winning rate against opponents is extremely dismal; and third, he has been unable to enter the finals of the world championships.

And if we can defeat the world's number one player who has already won three sets in a row in tomorrow's crucial match... that would be a very powerful counterattack against these public opinions!

You're saying that I have a bad record in the first battle?

What if I prevent the world's number one player from breaking the Nongshim Cup's winning streak and ending the tournament...?
You mean I can’t even get the world runner-up?

Winning the Nongshim Cup is equivalent to being the world runner-up, and it is officially endorsed in the "Rank Management Regulations"!
As for the so-called "losing to women twice in a row"...

Please!

As long as the grades are good enough, these trivial matters will turn from black spots into laughing stocks.

Choi Myung-ho lost a lot to Wu Lao in the past, but it didn't affect his status as the number one player in the World Championship era!
And to get all this...all we have to do is defeat Liu Shixian who has fought for four days in a row tomorrow!

Beat a fight, bike change bike!
In an instant, Sun Yi, who was a little nervous because of Tang Guansheng's quick defeat today, suddenly ignited his fighting spirit and stood up to comfort Tang Guansheng!

"Brother Guan Sheng! Xiao Lei is right! You were just careless today!

"But don't worry, once I defeat Liu Shixian tomorrow, no one will pay attention to your quick defeat!"

"Uh... um..."

Tang Guansheng smiled awkwardly, and the atmosphere immediately changed from subtle to awkward...

Well...luckily Monkey King is easier to appease!
Seeing Sun Yi's ambitious look, Lei Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Anyway, this toe-on-the-ground atmosphere is much better than the subtle one that implies depression.

However, even though Sun Yi has vowed that he will try his best tomorrow and become famous in one fell swoop.

But the young captain of the China Nongshim Cup team is still not optimistic.
