In June 20, the teacher spoke about the last lesson of this semester-"the confrontation between kapablblan and Marshall ". According to the teacher, kapabblia is a rare Chinese chess genius, while Marshall is a secret chess player.

Marshall used to be the u. S. chess champion, but he has been defeated by kapabblania for many times and lost the u. S. Title. The two had previously had the following negative results: Marshall wins 1, 8, and 14!

In order to defeat the Cuba genius, Marshall devoted himself to the research for ten years. "Ten Years of grinding a sword" created an example of Marshall's abandonment. Marshall's martial arts are a treasure and unpredictable change. Marshall used it as a secret weapon and did not dare to test it on other opponents. He was afraid of leaking the wind. He was about to compete with kapabblan again, and beat him unpleasantly surprised and unprepared.

This moment has finally arrived. In October 1918, kapabblab came to New York to accept the Marshall challenge. Capababanblia is white and Marshall is black. The two jointly completed a classic game of history.

In the face of the new situation, kapabblab resolutely decided to take advantage of the challenges. Afterwards, he commented: "the desire to fight has shrouded me. Marshall suffered a fiasco after several times, and he tried to work hard throughout the day and night to develop this new method. With my prestige, understanding, and foresight, I knew that I would be under fierce attacks from him, but I had no reason to fear it. I decided to eat soldiers and accept challenges to maintain my honor, ".

Afterwards, Marshall changed this item to 11... C6 in 1938 !, The following figure shows 12. D4 bd6 13. re1qh4 14. G3 qh3 15. be3 bg4 16. qd3 rae8 17. ND2 re6. Contemporary chess players Adams, short, khalifman, and svidler all choose this change.

12. RE1

Generally, 12. D4 is used. The following 12... bd6 13. RE1 (13. re2 nh5 !) 13... ng4 14. H3 qh415.qf3 !. However, in order to disrupt Marshall's thinking, kapabblab did not choose this method, which fully reflected his ability to adapt to emergencies.

13... ng4!

This is Marshall's counterattack, so brave and fierce! Fully embodies his personality.

14. qf3!

Bai Fang is both defending and defending against both F7 and A8 vehicles. The white side cannot eat dark horse for the analysis of kapababanblan: 14. hxg4? Qh4 15. qf3 BH2 +! 16 more... bxg4, black counterattack.

14... qh4 15. D4!

Here, for example, 15. hxg4, the black side has 15... BH2 + experts! The following 16. kf1 bxg4 17. qe4bf4! 18. G3 qh2 cannot be defended.

15... nxf2!

According to kapabanblia, the black party is desperate to abandon the horse at this time. "He has no better way to fight or admit defeat ." According to the shamkovich analysis, if the black side goes through 15... H5 !?, The following 16. be3nxe3 17. rxe3 qf4 18. qxf4 bxf4 19. RE1 bf5, forming a situation in which the black-square dual-elephant and white-square are more troops.

16. re2!

In the face of the abandoned horse from the black side, kapabblab found the best defensive solution in the shortest time. For example, 16. qxf2 ?, The following 16... BH2 +! 17. kf1 bg3 18. QE2 bxh3 19. gxh3 rae8. In 1950s, people thought that 16. bd2 was taken! Stronger. The following 16... bb7 ?! Be6? 17. RE3!
17. qxb7 Nd3 18. re2! Rae8 19. qf3 rxe2 20. qxe2 qg3 21. qf3! Qh2 + 22. kf1 qh1 + 23. ke2 nxb2 24. be3, Bai Sheng (you Wei ).

16 .. bg4

At this time, if you go to 16... ng4! This can lead to a balance. However, Marshall fought for the game and his opponent, kapambaraka, also believed that "the best way to continue is to attack ."

17. hxg4 BH2 + 18. kf1

18... bg3

At this time, if Marshall goes through 18... nh1, the Defense solution prepared by kapabblab is 19. be3 ng3 + 20. ke1rae8 21. ND2 Bg1 22. nf1 nxe2 + 23. kxe2 qg5 24. RE1: The Player fails.

19. rxf2 qh1 + 20. ke2bxf2 ?!

Black players are defeated in this step, such as taking 20... qxc1 !, Both parties have mutual attacks.

21. bd2! Bh422.qh3!

Comments from kapabblia: At this time, the black party was forced to escort the White King along the way to a safer place to avoid switching the queen.

22... rae8 + 23. kd3qf1 + 24. kc2 bf2 25. qf3!

Figure 5

Send the king to a safe zone, and the white party will immediately launch a counterattack! The black party gradually moved to the defensive position, and the attack activities basically stopped.

25... qg1

For example, if 25... re2 is used, 26. na3 RD2 + 27. kd2 qa1 28qf2 qb2 + 29. NC2 is better than white. Of course, Marshall does not consider it!

26. bd5! C5

To protect the G2 soldiers.

27. dxc5 bxc5 28. B4! Bd629.a4! A5 ?!

The white-side attack entered a climax. The black party rushed to the army and forced the White King to expose it, making the last blow in despair!

30. axb5 axb4 31. ra6bxc3 32. nxc3 BB4 33. B6 bxc334.bxc3 h6

If the black side goes 34... RE3, the white side has 35. qxf7 +! .
