I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 346 The White Chess Player with a Broken Backbone

Seeing that Black chose to jump, Yu Shao looked at the chessboard, pondered for a moment, and finally picked up another piece and quickly placed it down.

Hey!
Six columns and seventeen rows, a small flying hanger!
"White... has actually abandoned the plan and occupied a large area to defend the corner!"

Upon seeing this move, everyone blinked, a look of astonishment appearing on their faces.

"In the blink of an eye, White has abandoned the small flying piece and the two pieces placed at the third position!"

Yes.

Faced with Black's jump, White could have simply extended and escaped to the outside, which would have been a viable and stable move. However, White chose to ignore the move and forcefully try to gain a large area!
This is not impossible, but it is too much. The two white stones are immediately trapped in a dead end!

If Black played like this, it would be understandable, since Black has a 7.5 komi (7.5 points) to give. But if White played like this, it would be a bit too aggressive!
In this game, it seems that White has the komi, while Black is playing cautiously and steadily. White is stirring up trouble throughout the game, trying to provoke a complex battle!

"not that simple."

Zhu Xinyuan stared at the chessboard, his expression growing even more serious.

"While ignoring the initial move may result in local damage, this move... while seemingly killing the two white stones, actually involves unexpectedly complex variations if one wants to completely capture them!"

"If I press down on top, White also has a way to push up on the outside. Since White has the initiative to capture, I have to spend a move to reinforce myself!"

"If I jump on the outside, White has a clever move to play a push on the top. If I connect, White will attack from both sides. Although the variations are very complicated, White will eventually be caught in a tough battle!"

"so……"

Finally, Zhu Xinyuan picked up a chess piece again and slowly placed it down.

Hey!
Six columns and five rows, jump!

Yu Shao gazed at the chessboard before him, pondered for a moment, and then quickly placed his piece.

Thirteen columns, second row, turn!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the chess pieces were placed one after another.

Everyone was intently focused on the chessboard, their minds constantly deducing the various possible future moves in the game.

Soon, Yu Shao once again placed a white piece, slowly lowering it to the ground.

Four columns and eleven rows, dismantle!
"The black magic won't fall into the trap; jumping is the key to the situation, preparing for a big win. But Bai Lianban skillfully maneuvered, and after thirty-four moves, he finally succeeded in his transformation, but—"

Jiang Changdong stared intently at the chessboard, watching the piece that had just been placed: "White's thirty-sixth move, surprisingly, went to the right flank to extend and seize another large area!"

"Wasn't it agreed that urgent matters should take precedence over major events?!"

The so-called "critical point" refers to the vital point on the board where life and death are at stake. It usually relates to the life or death of pieces, eye positions, or offensive and defensive transitions, and has a local and urgent nature.

The "big field" refers to a strategic point of great value that affects the overall development, usually involving the expansion of power, the construction of a framework, and the division of territory.

The principle of prioritizing urgent matters over major events is almost a consensus in the chess world.

However, in this game, White's two attempts to seize important areas by ignoring the opponent's moves almost completely overturned this consensus!
"However... these two instances of abandoning what was in dire need were full of hidden meanings, demonstrating how to control others without being controlled by them!"

“Each time White suffered local damage, it seemed like White was in grave danger, but upon closer inspection, Black was actually unable to capture White easily on both occasions!”

Jiang Changdong stared silently at the chessboard, then couldn't help but look at Yu Shao with intense attention in his eyes.

"If we can think of avoiding the urgent and instead seizing the big opportunities, then these two moves to escape first are actually not difficult to execute. But the problem is..."

"Before him, no one would have thought of abandoning the urgent situation in order to seize the big stage!"

At this moment, Zhu Xinyuan silently stared at the chessboard, hesitating to make a move.

At this point in the game, judging from the situation alone, the board is still evenly matched, with both black and white capable of fighting, and the outcome is far from certain.

but……

The situation in the game had already begun to be led by White without anyone noticing.

"We can't keep being led by the nose like this."

Zhu Xinyuan stared intently at the chessboard, where black and white pieces seemed to appear out of thin air, spreading continuously across the board.

"If you want to seize the initiative in the game, then you have to go all out."

"It seems that being too conservative isn't a good idea either."

"Of course there will be risks involved, but if you're unwilling to give up something, you're destined to gain nothing!"

"How long can I hold on?"

Finally, Zhu Xinyuan picked up another chess piece, the black piece gleaming between her fingers, and then—

It fell rapidly.

Hey!
Four columns, seven rows, shoulder strike!
"Black has finally launched an attack, pressing and pressing to kill the white stones on the left flank!"

Upon seeing this move, everyone was stunned, their hearts seemingly skipping a beat.

The entire chess hall suddenly became even quieter.

Everyone had already seen the situation on the board. With this move, the entire game was no longer calm and peaceful, but was suddenly filled with a tense and ominous atmosphere!
The rain is coming from the wind!
At this moment, the strong wind stopped, and the mountain rain poured down.

Black launched a shoulder hit, beginning its fiercest attack on White!
If White makes even the slightest mistake, their entire army will be wiped out...

However, the same applies to Black's attack using shoulder strikes; if Black makes a careless move, the entire game can be lost!

"In contrast to his previous steady style, he played a shoulder hit, is he trying to provoke a complex fight?"

Yu Shao looked at the chessboard and at the aggressive shoulder strike. After a moment of thought, he finally reached into the chess box.

The next moment, Yu Shao picked up a chess piece, which fell like a meteor!
Hey!
Three columns and seven rows, climb!

Seeing the white piece fall, Zhu Xinyuan immediately clamped down on the black piece and fell without hesitation.

Four columns and eight rows, so long!

The black and white pieces immediately became tightly intertwined on the left side of the board. As the pieces continued to fall, the conflict quickly spread and erupted into a fierce battle!

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
The sound of pieces being placed echoed continuously!
The two sides attacked and defended, constantly switching between offense and defense, which was dazzling and made people feel a chill. Every time a piece was placed on the board, it was as if they could feel an overflowing killing intent!
"So strong!"

Everyone stared intently at the chessboard, witnessing the fierce clash between the black and white pieces, and even felt a chill creep up their spines!

"Really strong!"

"Black set an ambush to exploit White's weaknesses, but White not only saw through it, but also used Black's weaknesses to try and break through Black's defenses. Black had already prepared a way out, and even sacrificed a piece to force White to retreat!"

"Every move made by both sides is the strongest move after careful consideration!"

"Every move was decisive and deadly!"

Beside him, Jiang Changdong silently watched the chessboard, his eyes already slightly narrowed.

"Black's move 43, 'Zhen,' is a move with a very strategic scope. It aims to attack White's isolated stones while also taking care of Black's own position in the center."

"However, when facing a strong opponent like Black, White's response of move 44 is also very flexible."

At this moment, Zhu Xinyuan picked up another chess piece and quickly placed it on the board!
Snapped!
Five columns and eleven rows, wow!
"Black refuses to give up, investing heavily to forcefully kill White!"

Seeing this move, everyone felt a chill run down their spines!
Black's move, relying on the opponent's stones, reveals a fierce and desperate nature!
This move was too aggressive. Although it did hit White's weak point, it also exposed its own flaws. If White can hold on, Black may face a fatal counterattack from White!
White moves.

Five columns and twelve rows, turn!
Black followed immediately with its move!

Six columns and twelve rows, continuous operation!

Upon seeing this move, someone in the crowd couldn't help but swallow hard.

The others stared at the chessboard in disbelief, already feeling the intense killing intent emanating from the black pieces!
"I've gone all in!"

"Black has no way out. They've gone all out and are going to fight hard all the way to the bitter end, going to fight White to the death!"

"Teacher Zhu Xinyuan has used every trick in the book to launch a strong attack on White, leaving White no way out!"

clatter! clatter! clatter!
As they watched, the expressions of the people around them gradually changed.

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Black has gone all out... but, but White—"

"Bai Zi is so assertive that he's accepting everything!"

"Are you... insane?!"

"If you refuse to compromise at all and are so stubborn, in the end, the shape of White's stones may even be directly broken through by Black!"

On the chessboard, pieces continue to be placed one after another.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the chessboard, watching the battle between the white and black pieces, deeply shocked by the white pieces' assertive attitude.

Here, facing the relentless onslaught of the Black pieces, if the White pieces give in, the Black pieces may gain an advantage, but from the perspective of the overall situation, it is not unacceptable for the White pieces, as the battle lines will be stretched out!

However, the white pieces adopted the most aggressive approach, going head-to-head with the black pieces, making the situation on the board increasingly complex and difficult to understand!

Although White manages to avoid further losses in certain areas after several consecutive moves, the shape of the stones has become vulnerable in many places. In the end, when Black launches a desperate all-out attack, White may even be completely overwhelmed!
Is there still a chance to salvage this situation?

Suddenly, Jiang Changdong seemed to realize something. His brows furrowed, and he stared intently at the chessboard, his mind racing as he calculated the subsequent situation!
"If the white pieces stick together, they can still be made to live."

"In this way, after White makes a living group, the endgame score is extremely high. However, Black can not only seize good points on the outside, but also form a mountain range. More importantly, White will fall into a disadvantageous position!"

"White's pieces are alive, but it's incredibly difficult to turn the tide in the endgame. There's no clear strategy for White to play right now."

As Jiang Changdong was pondering the situation, Yu Shao reached into the chess box again, and with a click, picked out a chess piece and slowly placed it on the board.

Hey!
Twelve columns and nine rows, so long!
"It's grown...?"

Upon seeing this move, Jiang Changdong was stunned.

White failed to play the connecting move and instead chose to extend, pushing its head towards the center!

"If we connect, it's true that it's not difficult to make the group live, but even if it lives, we can't necessarily make it live by pushing directly towards the center!"

Jiang Changdong stared at the chessboard in shock, finding it utterly unbelievable: "Does he really think he can make a living here?!"

Zhu Xinyuan was slightly taken aback when he saw Bai's move.

But Zhu Xinyuan quickly realized what was happening, immediately reaching into the chess box, grabbing a chess piece, and placing the white piece down. The pieces continued to fall.

On the chessboard, the battle between the two sides had long since spread from the left wing to the entire board, and was becoming increasingly fierce, making the board situation more and more complex!
Everyone was engrossed in watching the game, observing the thrilling moves made by both sides, and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Can White really make a living group?
Black's series of moves were aggressive, giving White no chance to breathe at all!

At this moment, facing the encirclement and attack from all sides by Black, White's pieces are exposed on all sides, and it seems like a sure way to die!

If it were anyone else playing black, it would be fine, but unfortunately, it was Zhu Xinyuan who played black!

However, at this moment, no one dared to say that White was really going to die!
They couldn't believe it themselves; even after things had come to this point, they still thought that Yu Shao might actually have the ability to turn the tide!
"Yu Shao is a chess player capable of creating miracles!"

Everyone silently opened their eyes wide and stared intently at the chessboard.

White, twelve columns, five rows, small knight's move!
Black, 13th column, 4th row, push!

White's move, nineteen columns and nine rows, is a sharp point!

"White's small knight's move and the sharp point leave Black with many possibilities, perhaps..."

Jiang Changdong stared intently at the chessboard, even he found it hard to believe his own thoughts: "Perhaps he really does have the means to reshape the world?"

Zhu Xinyuan looked down at the chessboard, his expression not relaxed. His forehead was covered with sweat as he focused intently on the game, as if nothing around him could move him.

“If he breaks through from above and intercepts, I can push back. But if he doesn’t intercept and instead chooses to throw the stone above, I can only pounce.”

"Although he has seized the main area, his decision to ignore the opponent's moves will inevitably lead to local losses. I couldn't capture White before, but now I can!"

"So."

"Eighteen columns and nine rows, paste!"

Zhu Xinyuan picked up another chess piece and quickly placed it down!

Eighteen columns and nine rows, paste!
With this move, the hidden killing intent on the chessboard was finally no longer concealed and completely overflowed!

"A formidable opponent!"

Upon seeing this move, some people almost couldn't help but exclaim, "Teacher Zhu Xinyuan is going all out! He's trying to forcefully suppress White and cut off White's liberties!"

"How will White respond?"

"White blocks, Black attacks, White digs... No way."

"If White moves with a flying move, Black has a sharp tesuji (move), and although the number of moves is very complicated, White will still die instantly!"

A tense atmosphere permeated the chess hall.

"Are there any other ways to break this deadlock?"

Looking at this chess game, everyone's hearts couldn't help but clench.

at last.

Yu Shao lowered his eyes to look at the chessboard, then reached into the chess box again and picked out a chess piece.

Hey!
Ten columns and eight rows, Little Fly!
"It's still the small knight's move, but after the small knight's move, Black has a brilliant move with a sharp point. Could it be that after Black's sharp point, White has another trick up its sleeve?"

Upon seeing this move, everyone's hearts skipped a beat, and they stared intently at the chessboard.

On the chessboard, the black and white pieces constantly moved their pieces around the center, each move fierce and deadly!

This game of chess, the clash between the two sides, has been so exciting that it's breathtaking, even making one want to kneel down in awe.

However, the black stones eventually began to slowly surround the white stones.

"White's shape... is ultimately going to collapse! Black's external influence is too strong. White's previous disregard for the outside has left too many hidden dangers in this area!"

On the chessboard, the white pieces' shape is already in a state of collapse!

"Is there really no other way?"

"He is Yu Shao, the man who has created countless miracles on the chessboard since his debut!"

Looking at the chessboard, everyone felt a pang of sadness and their emotions were incredibly complex.

Human nature is truly strange.

For some reason, before, they all hoped to see Yu Shao lose, but now that they see Yu Shao really being forced into a desperate situation, they actually hope that Yu Shao can pull off another miracle.

If the white pieces fail to survive, all fifty pieces will be wiped out. Even if the white pieces can wreak havoc in the heavens, they will still be unable to lift this five-finger mountain!

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
As the chess pieces continued to fall, everyone grew increasingly silent.

Finally, Zhu Xinyuan looked at the chessboard and took a deep breath.

"That's it."

Zhu Xinyuan picked up a chess piece and quickly placed it down!

Snapped!
Fourteen columns and twelve rows, charge!

"Lost..."

"Even Yu Shao, under those circumstances, ultimately couldn't save Da Long..."

"With a quarter of the chessboard occupied and pieces worth over fifty points wiped out, there is no possibility of a comeback."

Although everyone already knew that it was almost impossible for White to make a living group under those circumstances, seeing White's large group of stones die suddenly still stirred up some emotions in them.

In this game, although White once had a significant advantage, Black suffered heavy losses.

However, Black launched a sudden attack and, after a fierce battle, captured nearly a quarter of the White stones on the board. White's backbone was broken, and no matter how Black played, there was no way to save it.

Everyone felt empty inside.

After all, White played exceptionally well in this game. The two moves that were made without any prior moves were truly eye-opening, and the subsequent attacks and defenses were also absolutely brilliant.

"What a pity……"

"In the end, it was still too aggressive. White had already secured a major position, and Black should have conceded in the crucial moment..."

"This game of chess ends here."

Zhu Xinyuan was also silently staring at the chessboard, without saying a word.

Although the process was somewhat bumpy, we ultimately won.

Just then, a "click" sound rang out.

Upon hearing this voice, everyone's faces showed a hint of surprise, and they all turned their gazes toward Yu Shao.

Yu Shao's right hand reached into the chess box again!
"What do you mean?"

"Is he going to play again?"

"It's over. There's no point in continuing. White has lost all of its fifty-point stones!"

"No matter what we do, there's no chance. Continuing will only waste both of our time."

"This... is it because you're unwilling to give up, so you want to persist a few more times?"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone around him, Yu Shao finally slowly picked up the chess piece.

As the chess pieces were removed, the clattering sounds of the pieces inside the chess box abruptly ceased.

In the utter silence, Yu Shao's right hand, holding a chess piece, descended from a great height!

indeed.

The chessboard was no longer empty; this huge difference of fifty points was equivalent to a quarter of the value of the entire chessboard!
In this situation, White should have already resigned.

but--

Snapped!
Place the chess piece on the board!
Ten columns and fourteen rows, Xiao Fei!

"it turns out……"

Upon seeing this move, Jiang Changdong's eyes widened slightly, and his body involuntarily leaned forward slightly!
"It's Xiao Fei!"

Even the usually composed Zhuang Weisheng was stunned by this move: "It's too subtle."

"It seems that there is..."

A young professional Go player wearing glasses, beads of sweat slowly sliding down his cheeks, pushed up his glasses, seemingly wanting to see more clearly: "It's as if he has some powerful hidden move!"

Even he himself didn't believe this idea!
Backhand?

This is almost terrifying to think about!
How is this possible?

This is not just a simple case of a large dragon being slaughtered. You must understand that this is the complete annihilation of fifty pieces. It can be said that White's backbone was broken by Black!

Even a god would be powerless to reverse the situation in this game!
But then, this little flying move—

That's too subtle!

It's so subtle that you can understand it, yet it's still a bit hard to figure out!
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the game that should have already been decided!

Can White still make a move?

But how is this possible?

How could someone carrying a burden of fifty goals still manage to turn the tide of the game? Could someone who could do that even be called human?! Impossible!
quiet!
At this moment, time seemed to stand still!
On the chessboard, the black and white pieces radiate an eerie light, moving people and giving them a deep sense of awe!
