The Chinese team knew the Japanese team's plan immediately after seeing Xiao Linjue play.

But Ma Xiaochun laughed when he saw Xiao Linjue, because he was the one who stopped Xiaolinjue's five-game winning streak in the last session. This is really a pillow just when he was about to doze off!

Xiao Lin felt that after seeing Ma Xiaochun, he also looked like an enemy. If this person hadn't stopped his winning streak last time, he would have been able to go straight to Huanglong and force Nie Weiping out. Maybe the Chinese Chess Master will be killed together!

If this is the case, even if his performance in the "Big Triple Crown" is not satisfactory, he will definitely become a national hero in Japan.

So when he saw Ma Xiaochun again at this time, Xiao Linjue suddenly lost his temper, and secretly felt ruthless in his heart: Today, this person must be beheaded, and it will be a shame for him!

In this tit-for-tat situation, the chess game between the two was full of gunpowder from the very beginning, and they fought together at the beginning.

In the prologue stage, the two of them had almost no plan, and they immediately strangled each other with sparks flying, and the battle started from the first second!

Ma Xiaochun had just finished a strangulation battle in the morning, and the feeling of the battle hadn't faded yet, and it happened that he was holding black again, so he simply spread the flames of war to the middle abdomen, and the top fifty moves on the chessboard were actually empty.

The two played very quickly in this game of chess. Ma Xiaochun had the upper hand in the former Baishouqi game, but after that, Xiao Linjue caught up with him. After all, he had been watching Ma Xiaochun all morning, and he had been studying Ma Xiaochun's game for a year. , At this time, the grasp of the mid-game battle is obviously better.

Ji Xiuwen already felt that something was wrong. Although Xiao Linjue's move was fast, he was fast and meticulous. On the contrary, Ma Xiaochun fell into the opponent's rhythm in the middle game. At this time, his 5 pieces in the upper left corner were swallowed, and the upper right corner The 5 sons of the team are also in a tight siege, and the situation is extremely unfavorable.

Although Nie Weiping has feelings for Ma Xiaochun, he does not want him to lose to the Japanese chess players. At this time, he also said to the reporter following the interview: "Xiao Linjue came prepared today. His first hundred players in this chess game There is a lot to be said for his hand, Xiao Ma has killed too much, and now the winning percentage is less than [-]%, he must persist until the big official if he wants to come back."

However, Xiao Linjue is in excellent condition, and after a hundred moves, he is still proficient at every step, but his moves are hidden and fierce, forcing the black chess with insufficient stamina to have no chance to breathe, and slowly not only occupy the upper left and right corners, but Ma Xiaochun originally occupied the middle abdomen. Yu's black chess was also trapped by him.

At this moment, Ma Xiaochun was like a ferocious beast in a cage, rushing left and right but couldn't get out. After 150 moves, the black flag was surrounded by white flowers, and it seemed that he could no longer escape.

At this time, the Chinese chess players couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing, Ma Xiaochun's chess game was hopeless.

But the brilliance of Go lies in the "skillful hand turning the world around". In the classic chess games in history, there are always some wonderful hands that turn the world around.

At this time, Ma Xiaochun's middle ground was already in a state of "encirclement and suppression" by white chess, but just when everyone thought that black chess's situation was over, after thinking for half an hour, Ma Xiaochun suddenly made an exquisite move, When forcing White to parry, an almost imperceptible gap appeared.

Apart from Ji Xiuwen, this gap, which no one on both sides can see, is a lifeline.

However, Ma Xiaochun nimbly grasped the only way out on the chessboard, and forced out of the encirclement of white chess by virtue of his incomparable tesuji, and started a mighty breakout of the Central Plains!

Xiao Linjue didn't notice anything unusual, he still had the upper hand at this time, facing the black chess that was lucky enough to break through, he began to calmly set up a defensive line to encircle him, and that skillful move gave birth to a feeling that God was in control All illusions.

Ma Xiaochun gave up his painstakingly managed base, facing the besieging white chess tossing and turning, either stabbing or flying, or pointing or jumping, unexpectedly started a big detour on the chessboard.

Xiao Linjue dismissed Ma Xiaochun, who was fleeing everywhere. At this moment, the black chess had long been a shackle in his eyes, and no matter how many roundabouts he could not escape his watertight siege.

However, the situation of the chess game changed quietly as Ma Xiaochun continued to break through the encirclement. After several consecutive anti-encirclement and suppression campaigns, black chess became stronger and stronger, and the more he fought, the more territory he controlled.

In the end, this chess game that was supposed to end in the middle of the game was actually held on by him all the way to the official stage in desperation.

At this time, the commentators of the two countries who were in charge of explaining the game, including the chess players of the two countries, were all shocked to find that Ma Xiaochun's black chess had survived the Long March!

Finally, when he came to the stage of the big official, Xiao Linjue was no longer in the stance of winning, because the situation had already reversed. At this time, the black chess turned from defense to offense, and actually launched a decisive battle against him!

At this time, Xiao Linjue seemed to have fallen into a panic. He actually still had a certain advantage in this decisive battle, but after the battle, Ma Xiaochun was defeated steadily, and he forcibly ate a pot of raw rice.

At the end of the game, the referee didn't need to count the number of pieces to know who won and who lost. Ma Xiaochun's black chess actually won by as many as 6 and a half eyes.

Xiao Linjue turned a war of encirclement and suppression in which I had the advantage into a war of liberation.

The game scene at this time, except for the Chinese players who tried their best to restrain themselves from laughing out loud, was completely suffocating helplessness and despair.

At this time, Ji Xiuwen and his teammates went up to congratulate Ma Xiaochun. This game of chess he played was really wonderful, especially the exquisite Tesuji in the desperate situation. A representative work of his career.

The Chinese players were tempted to celebrate loudly what was destined to be a Go classic, but it would be impolite to do so.

After all, this is their home field, and they can't be as unscrupulous as other sports after all, so no matter how happy they are, they can only suppress it and not show it.

But the problem is that seeing the expressions of all the Japanese as vice ministers, they are really uncomfortable!

Before the start of the battle today, because the Japanese team led 4:2, the venue that could have accommodated 1000 people was packed with more than 500 people in the morning.

When the game of chess just reached the middle stage, the whole venue was still in a cheerful atmosphere.

From top to bottom, the Japanese thought that they could end the fourth day of the game 5:3, and the complacent look is still in front of them.

But at this moment, the entire contestants' seats and audience seats were surprisingly silent, as if they were in the underworld!

In the end, it was Lao Nie who took the male team members to the toilet together, and then asked Ji Xiuwen to roll to the door to watch. After making sure that there was no one around, everyone laughed together!

The Japanese can guess that those Chinese chess players must be laughing loudly in the toilet, but at this time they can no longer care about what the Chinese are doing.

Today, the big reversal was completed in such a way, and the morale of all Japanese chess players was severely hit.

Especially the Japanese players who will play tomorrow will be under a lot of pressure, because if they lose again, they will be beaten by Ma Xiaochun three times in a row. Now the advantage has come to the Chinese team.

The Chinese Go team quickly returned to the hotel after celebrating in the toilet.

Naturally, everyone first went to the restaurant to have a good meal. Ma Xiaochun, who hadn't eaten before the game, ate like a starving ghost.

But they didn't drink to celebrate, because there is no interval between this tournament. After Ma Xiaochun slept, he had to face his opponent in the fifth round again.

As for Wu Jie who is still missing, even Lao Nie has no time to pay attention.

Although Wu Jie is not doing his job properly, he still pays attention to the Go team. At least he knows that after the first four days of competition, the Chinese Go team has now chased the total score to 4:4.

In his opinion, the schedule of this tournament is very unscientific, because Go is an extremely brain-intensive sport. It’s okay to play twice a day, but you must rest for a day the next day, so it is scientific and reasonable.

But with the current uninterrupted schedule, if the game lasted five or six hours the night before, the players could only sleep for six or seven hours before waking up, and the probability of winning streak the next day would be greatly reduced.

Of course, this may be Japan's wishful thinking, because it will make Chinese chess players lose the advantage of being more fully prepared in the previous two rounds.

The biggest difference between Chinese chess players and Japanese chess players is that the former can train collectively, and everyone can do their best to help the players who will play in the next game and imitate the style of Japanese chess players for him.

However, Japanese chess players train and prepare individually, which is one of the reasons why Japan believes that they will lose to China in the previous two tournaments.

The next day, after Ji Xiuwen saw Ma Xiaochun, he felt that his battle should be more or less fatal.

At this time, Ma Xiaochun was yawning with dark circles under his eyes. After eating breakfast, even he felt that today's condition was very bad, and the battle two hours later was really difficult.

But he can't be blamed for this. After returning from the game yesterday, Ma Xiaochun went back to his room immediately after eating, but it was already past one o'clock in the morning.

Ma Xiaochun wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible, but he thought too much before going to bed, and his cerebral cortex was still active due to the shocking turnaround just completed, so he couldn't fall asleep even though he was tired.

In the end, I finally fell asleep, but was woken up in less than five hours. The feeling was so uncomfortable.

Now Ma Xiaochun is in a state of physical and mental exhaustion, and can't stop yawning and crying when eating.

Ji Xiuwen felt that in this state, he might not even be able to play Nan Guangzi, let alone the Japanese players who hadn't played at this time were all top-notch masters.

Nie Weiping also saw that Ma Xiaochun might not be able to win three consecutive victories, so he was already thinking about who to send tonight.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the match was as expected. Ma Xiaochun's "demon sword" completely lost its spirituality, let alone the treacherous and changeable style of the past. Facing Hiroshi Yamashiro, who is known as the "infiltrating flow", he fought one after another. Even without a good formation, the layout stage was already very difficult, and it was completely at a disadvantage in the middle game.

The Japanese photographer also specially took a close-up of Ma Xiaochun's back, and it can be seen that Ma Xiaochun was already sweating profusely at this time.

This game of chess didn't take too long. Hiroshi Yamashiro took away the defeated Ma Xiaochun in the middle of the game. The whole game took just over three hours, not even the lunch time.

This time, the Japanese had a lot of fun at the scene. Naturally, the Chinese chess players would not stay at the scene to watch the opponent's celebration after victory.

Ma Xiaochun didn't care about his autism, and when he got back to the lounge, he didn't even eat, and fell asleep!

Naturally, the Chinese chess players would not bother him, because breaking Yida Kiki's winning streak, he had already overfulfilled the task by moving two games in a row, and it was up to his teammates next.

Ma Xiaochun also slept very peacefully. He knew that this time not only Nie Weiping was in charge, but also a monster as the deputy general. This time the Chinese team's form was much better than the previous two. Just watch your teammates perform.

There is not much pressure on the Chinese team, because Hiroshi Yamashiro is not considered a top-notch chess player in Japan, and even if he is a top-notch chess player, he is not ranked well.

There are "seven major chess battles" in Japanese Go, among which "chess holy war", "celebrity war" and "Honinbo war" have the highest influence and gold content. These three events are also called "big three crowns"; Battle", "Tianyuan Battle", "Ge Jihad", and "Ten-Duan Battle", are called the "Four Small Crowns", and their influence and gold content are smaller than the first three events.

Hiroshi Yamashiro has not yet won any of the seven high-bonus events, because he fell to the hands of the "Sixth Super League" every time, and can only complete consecutive championships in the "Crown Game" with low prize money, so he Even the honor that a first-class chess player should have is not yet available.

Of course, his chess strength should already belong to the "first-class" ranks. It is characterized by a gentle and gentle style of chess, and comprehensive skills, especially in protracted battles. It should just be a matter of time.

Before the game at night, Nie Weiping thought it over and decided to send another player who had won the title of "Go prodigy"—Qian Yuping, who is only 21 years old this year and two years younger than Ma Xiaochun.

Qian Yuping is different from Ma Xiaochun, he is a hard-working "prodigy", because he studies chess records for more than 10 hours a day on average, so he has the nickname of "playing score machine".

But in Ji Xiuwen's eyes, compared to the withdrawn and proud "Demon Sword", he doesn't like this "music maker" at all, because the latter has no real will to fight and has serious psychological defects.

Two years ago, in the first China-Japan group arena, the 20-year-old Qian Yuping encountered the powerful Koichi Kobayashi. He played extremely tenaciously when he was always behind, and finally caused Kobayashi's mistakes.

But just when the Chinese masters watching the game found the perfect opportunity to achieve a big reversal, and all of them were extremely excited, Qian Yuping gave in.

If this is just an exception, Qian Yuping will always be accompanied by this kind of surrender and timidity until his retirement, including the last abstention event that shocked China and foreign countries.

It was 1991 in the original plane. At that time, China had not won a world championship in the field of Go. Even Nie Weiping, who was regarded as a national hero, had only reached the finals twice before, and failed.

This has intensified China's desire for a world champion in Go, and this time, the 24-year-old Qian Yuping made it to the finals, defeating many top-notch players along the way, unstoppable.

But on the day of the final, an extremely rare event occurred in the world Go world-Korean-Japanese player Zhao Zhixun won automatically, and Chinese player Qian Yuping abstained.

This incident shocked the Go world in both Japan and South Korea, because Qian Yuping’s reason for withdrawing from the game was simply "I have a headache!"

Zhao Zhixun was very dissatisfied with this result, and said to the media after winning automatically: "He may have his own reasons, but no matter what happens, as a chess player, I will also climb to the arena."

These remarks made the Chinese Go world feel embarrassed for a while, but Zhao Zhixun is indeed qualified to make such an evaluation, because just 5 years ago, Zhao Zhixun suffered a serious car accident before the final of the "Chess Holy War", but he was still in a wheelchair on the final day Participated in the competition, at that time his body was tightly wrapped in bandages like a mummy, and it was difficult to complete the movement of the ball.

Compared with Qian Yuping's reason for headache, it is impossible to stand up, because no one would give up such a game just because of headache.

Moreover, when the team leader urged him to leave, he had already confirmed that his so-called headache had disappeared, because it was the symptom he had had when he asked for leave a few days ago.

"His thinking at the time was that as long as he didn't participate, he wouldn't lose to Zhao Zhixun."

This is the explanation of the members of the Chinese Go team to domestic reporters. Many of them have lived with Qian Yuping for more than ten or twenty years, and they understand Qian Yuping's thinking logic under heavy pressure.

"I was not in good health at the time, and I was not sure that I would win. I felt that it was not good to lose, and I couldn't save face."

This is 16 years later. Qian Yuping’s own explanation for the abstention at the time actually indirectly proved that his so-called headache at that time was only due to a psychological defect, unable to resist the nervousness and the fear of losing the game, so he randomly grasped this reason and did it. Successfully convinced myself.

Ji Xiuwen looked down on such people from the bottom of his heart. The only person he hadn't talked to in this team was this coward who would always be a deserter in the finals of foreign wars!

But today was not the final, and Qian Yuping played very well. In the beginning, he didn't know which chess record he had learned from an alternative strategy, which made Yamashiro Hiroshi lose at the beginning of the game.

Strictly speaking, the chess styles of these two people are somewhat similar, they are both thick and solid, and they are both of the late-strike type.

But today Qian Yuping's layout and distribution are very strange. After gaining the advantage at the beginning and entering the middle game, he continued to use his impeccable control of the game to make Yamashiro Hiroshi feel lonely.

This "blunt knife" has been sharpened to the official stage, and Hiroshi Yamashiro can't find a chance to reverse it at all, and he is always suppressed and beaten by Qian Yuping, who is stable and stable.

At this time, the Chinese chess players were all smiling, and Ma Xiaochun, who had slept all afternoon, happily announced: "Yuping is sure to win! The board is at least 10 moves, so tell me how to lose?" After speaking, he took a long breath, Still muttering, "I'm so tired! I'm more tired than playing chess by myself." Then he stood up, sat on the sofa farthest from the chessboard, leaned against it and continued to rest.

However, this relaxed atmosphere could not be maintained for long. Afterwards, almost all the bad scenes appeared on the big screen. Qian Yuping couldn't see the roads leading to victory, and went to a dead end.

However, in the "official stage", Hiroshi Yamashiro showed his strengths in seizing opportunities in protracted battles. Every mistake Qian Yuping made was caught by him and narrowed down the disadvantages. Finally, he found a lifeline in the siege of black chess and played the game. He came up with a trick to reverse life.

But unlike Ma Xiaochun's ingenious Tesuji comeback, Yamashiro Hiroshi's comeback was entirely due to Qian Yuping's own mistakes.

In the end, all the free time was used up. Qian Yuping, who had been rubbing his temples since the second half of the round, could only wait for the referee to count the moves with a dull face.

But at this time, it can also be seen from his mental state that this round is probably more ominous than good.

The faces of the Chinese chess players were also sinking, because they had already counted the number of black and white stones from the still picture.

Qian Yuping actually lost the peerless game he had created. This chess game went from a lead of more than a dozen goals at most to losing to Hiroshi Yamashiro in the end. Is your surname She or Guo?

Chapter 464 I'm Not A Screenwriter

Qian Yuping's defeat not only allowed Hiroshi Yamashiro to complete the winning streak, but the Japanese Go team also opened the score again on the fifth day. Now the score of the two teams has become 4:6.

The situation of the Chinese Go team has raised a big "dangerous" word. At this time, they are not only behind in the score, but only 3 players are left to play, while the Japanese team has 5 players who can play.

This time Nie Weiping didn't think much about it, Ji Xiuwen was his personal bodyguard, and now only Wang Qun could come out.

Wang Qun was born in 1957, and he was already 30 years old at that time. In this era of Go, it should be said to be at its peak.

The peak age of Go sports varies from person to person, and is also affected by the amount of training and information.

Before the 21st century, due to the absence of online competitions and AI training, most players had much less training and competition. At that time, the peak period usually did not arrive until the age of 30, and it could last until the age of 40. Even at the age of 50, he can still rank among the first-class chess players by virtue of his experience in competitions and psychological quality.

But the game of Go after the 21st century is different. At this time, the growth environment and training environment of chess players have undergone earth-shaking changes. Therefore, the age at which players enter the peak period is constantly advancing, and at the same time, the age of going out of the peak period Age is also advancing.

When Wu Jie traveled through time, most chess players peaked at around 25 years old, and even became world champions before they were 20 years old.

Now it is the end of the 80s, so the situation is naturally different. Nie Weiping was born in 52, so he is already 35 years old, but half of the players in the Japanese team are older than him.

Wang Qun is well-known in the domestic Go world. He had achieved six wins and one loss in the 1984 visit to Japan, and his results in domestic competitions were also among the first echelons.

However, he did not participate in the previous two China-Japan group arenas, and the gold content of the 1984 visit to Japan was also slightly insufficient. This is the first time he has faced so many top Japanese players.

Wang Qun is confident, because Shan Chenghong defeated Qian Yu last night, usually it is already 1 o'clock in the morning, counting the time to and from the hotel, he must be as physically and mentally exhausted as Ma Xiaochun, this victory can be regarded as his pocket !

Lao Nie was not blindly optimistic. Just now when Qian Yuping had the upper hand, he asked Wang Qun to leave early and go back to the hotel to rest. The purpose was to allow Wang Qun to give full play to his energy advantages in case of accidents.

Looking at it now, his act of planning for a rainy day is really a bit like a little Zhuge.

But he underestimated the shamelessness of the Japanese. When the Chinese team took time to come to the game site the next day, they were told that they could not enter the game site.

Nie Weiping and the team leader went to inquire for a long time, and finally received a notice from the organizer that because the fire safety measures at the competition site did not meet the requirements, the fire department required rectification before the competition could continue.

They were actively negotiating at this time, so the Japanese audience and Chinese chess players were blocked outside the gate together.
