In the 4th game of the 9th "Toyo Securities Cup" five-way chess finals, less than half an hour after the afternoon game began, there were more than 60 chess moves in the whole world, and Li Xiaoqiang began to take a long test.

"Xiaoqiang's long exam" is famous, and everyone sees that Li Xiaoqiang has not landed for a long time, and the research room is naturally discussing.

"What is Li Xiaoqiang thinking, are there still many options in this situation?"

Today's competition has attracted the attention of the world, and the research room is naturally very lively. However, the competition was held in South Korea, and this time it was still Coach Luo who led the team to participate, and there were no well-known domestic masters here, so the research room was mainly dominated by Korean chess players.

In the research room, the research lineup composed of two chess players is more eye-catching. The first group is a research lineup composed of Cao Yanzi, Liu Changhyuk and other current Korean first-line chess players, who are the main force of the research room, and most of the reporters watching the game are also around them.

On the other hand, there are young Korean chess players, and at a glance, you will find Lee Seok, Choi Poison, Park Yongxun and so on impressively listed. These people are now about 15 years old, just emerging in the Korean chess world, today Li Xiaoqiang and Li Shifo two masters of the peak showdown, of course they will not miss this opportunity to observe and learn.

If these people are placed in the future generations, it will of course be Li Shishi's greatest fame and highest achievements. However, at this time, Lee Shishi has not yet become the core of young Korean chess players. There was a young chess player who seemed to be rushing faster than him. While Lee was still only able to appear in various qualifiers, he was already on the stage of the Korean Title Challenger.

This chess player is Song Tae-kun, who is known as the "Young Hero" in South Korea, and he also said the sentence just now.

Not only the young chess players, but also the masters who are very familiar with Li Xiaoqiang, such as Cao Yanzi and Liu Changhe, don't know what he is thinking. At present, there are only more than 60 hands, although because Li Shifo is actively playing chess today, the battle scene seems inevitable, but the battle has not started after all, both sides are in the accumulation stage, and they are currently competing to come out of the middle abdomen, so everyone really doesn't know what Li Xiaoqiang has to think.

"Isn't it inevitable to jump to the mid-abdomen now? I really don't know what to think about this chess. ”

The chess game has not been passed out for a long time, and everyone is speculating about Li Xiaoqiang's next move. Song Taikun first laid out one of the most common changes, and then said this to everyone.

"I heard that Li Xiaoqiang hates this kind of continuous "single jump" to the midbelly the most, maybe he is thinking about doing work on the spot, everyone says that he is not thinking about here. ”

Park Yongxun giggled and put on another change of working on the spot, although the change he posed was normal, it was the second normal change of the second step of the "single jump", but his change was unanimously opposed by everyone.

"Isn't this a little too aggrieved......

"If this is the case, then it is not Li Xiaoqiang, Li Xiaoqiang will never take such a conservative approach......"

Li Xiaoqiang has not landed for a long time, and the second common method is considered impossible by everyone, so is there a third method?

"The most normal inference is that Li Xiaoqiang should be thinking about how to fight back, but for a while, I can't see where it is better to fight back." In the end, it was the militant Cui Poison who was closer to Li Xiaoqiang's thinking, but after he put a few counterattack changes on the chessboard, he couldn't find the ideal diagram of white.

"Stone, everyone else calls you "Korean Li Xiaoqiang", so where do you think white chess might play now? ”

"I'm also thinking that he might fight back."

"Fight back? But just now Cui poisoned ......"

"No, there is a counter-play ...... for white chess," Li Shi picked up a white piece and slapped it on a place on the chessboard.

"I was just wondering if Li Xiaoqiang might play here, after all, this move is huge, very tempting. As for the place just now, it's better to take off the first place and see what black can attack. In this part, I think that the first step is the most severe counterattack. ”

When the two sides attack, you run to take the lead, and say that the first is the most severe counterattack. Li Shibu is a character who is good at creating a "zombie flow". However, in this life, everyone calls him "Korean Li Xiaoqiang". I have to say that this name seems to make some sense.

At least today, when everyone saw Li Xiaoqiang's next hand, Li Shishi confirmed this nickname even more.

The only one who guessed Li Xiaoqiang's next move today was really Li Shishi.

"Ahh Is white really out of the lead? The stone is powerful, what did you just say, taking off the first is the harshest counterattack? ”

That's right, in the mid-game battle of Go, sometimes taking the lead is indeed the harshest counterattack.

In the game room, Li Xiaoqiang took off his first vote after careful consideration. He was obviously very satisfied with his move, and after losing this move, he even took a special look at Li Shifo:

"Don't you just want to compete with me in this game of chess? Then come and see who is the most powerful......"

And Li Shifo was obviously a little unexpected when he saw Li Xiaoqiang's hand, and as he thought deeply, Li Shifo's expression gradually became severe, and he immediately fell into a long exam.

Li Xiaoqiang knew in his heart that in the first round of the battle between the two sides, he should have scored by himself.

There are many elements to combat in Go, so what is the most important? Different chess players may have different answers to this question.

Some people may say that it is the way to tell, and that the way is the root of the battle. There are also those who believe that the most important thing in the fight is tesuji. Tesuji for attack, Tesuji for defense, Tesuji for connection, Tesuji for severing, and a lot of Tesuji in Go. It is believed that being good at spotting the opponent's weaknesses in battle, or being good at protecting one's own weaknesses, is the key to success or failure in battle.

But Li Xiaoqiang thinks none of these things are any. Whether it's calculating the road or tesuji, these things can only be regarded as basic skills, and they are essential qualities for fighting. No matter how deep you calculate, it may be ineffective, and no matter how much you know how to do it, it's just a tactical thing.

Li Xiaoqiang has always had a point of view, he thinks that the battle in Go, especially the battle at the level of himself and Li Shifo, is the most important thing, is the rhythm!

The so-called grasping the initiative in battle, Li Xiaoqiang understands that it is to fight according to his own wishes, let the battle appear where he wants to appear, and let the battle happen at the time he wants to happen. As for what position you are in in battle, whether it is offensive or defensive, whether it is to slay dragons or cure orphans, these things are not important.

So how do you do that? This requires you to constantly change the pace of your moves.

Why is Li Shishi's "zombie flow" a headache? Many people say that it is because of his weird power points, and he often causes fights in places that everyone doesn't expect. In fact, this statement is only half true.

Another scary thing about "Zombie Flow" is that this type of play often disrupts the rhythm of your moves, allowing you to fight him in places you don't want to fight.

In today's game of chess, Li Xiaoqiang's playing style is a bit of a "zombie flow" flavor. Where the two sides were running, he suddenly took the lead. It is foreseeable, then, that white will inevitably be attacked by black, and the waiting scene may look awkward.

But then again, being under onslaught is being onslaught, and being ugly is being ugly. Is the war that happened here the war scene that Li Shifo was looking forward to? In the next battle, will black have the expected gains? None of this is known at the moment. The only thing that can be known at the moment is that black will be in an unexpected place, in an unexpected battle. This was obviously unexpected by Li Shifo, and it also obviously ruined the rhythm of his moves. Of course, Li Shifo knows that it is powerful, so he needs to take a long test now.

Not only Li Shifo knew how powerful it was, but Cao Yanzi, Liu Changhe and others who were watching the battle also knew how powerful it was, so they also had grim expressions now.

"Tsk, the so-called boldness of the artist refers to Li Xiaoqiang. This step is really Li Xiaoqiang's first-class strong hand. He always played chess like this, and he was always able to forcibly reverse the flow of the whole game. But then again, the current pattern reminds me of the situation in Game 1. Do you think today's pattern is similar to the situation in Game 1? ”

Indeed, today's pattern is a bit similar to the situation in the first game of the five-way final. That game ended with Li Xiaoqiang being slaughtered by the dragon. Therefore, after hearing Yoo Chang-hyuk's words, the Korean chess players in the laboratory began to be active.

Li Xiaoqiang is good at reversing the flow of chess games, but Li Shifo is not what it used to be. Although there is a significant difference between this game and the first game:

The first game was that Li Shifo had been planning for a long time, and Li Xiaoqiang was a little caught off guard. The situation of this game of chess is reversed, it seems that Li Xiaoqiang did it deliberately, while Li Shifo is a little unexpected. However, the relationship between attack and defense on the board is still exactly the same as in the first game.

In the first game of chess, Li Shifo was able to win by slaying the dragon, why couldn't he show his muscles to Li Xiaoqiang again in this game of chess?

In the face of the new pattern, the research room has restarted enthusiastic research.

The chess game continued step by step, starting from Li Xiaoqiang's move to reverse the flow of the chess game, and the atmosphere in both the game room and the research room began to become suddenly tense.

In the game room, both players are equally slow. Li Shifo's every move is like a bitter groan, and Li Xiaoqiang's every move is more powerful than a thousand jun.

As time passed, the situation on the chessboard became more and more tense, and the atmosphere in the laboratory reached a fever pitch.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, with Li Xiaoqiang's move appearing on the chessboard, when the chess players in the research room saw this move, everyone's eyes widened.

Now everyone knows that the decisive moment of the game has arrived. (To be continued.) )
