What does the number of advances on the chess board mean?

The nine vertical lines from right to left on the red chessboard are recorded as 1 to 9. The vertical lines from right to left on the black chessboard are recorded as 1 to 9. The red chessboard's first line is the black chessboard's 9th line moving in a straight line, and the advance and retreat are counted by the number of squares. For example, if the red chessboard's first line moves forward one step, it is recorded as one forward, and the draw is recorded from which line to which line. If the red chessboard's second line's cannon is drawn to the fifth line, it is recorded as two cannons and five.

For chess pieces moving diagonally, they can only move forward and backward, not horizontally. Move forward and backward is recorded by moving from one road to another. For example, if a horse on road two jumps forward to road three, it means horse two moves forward three. If there are two identical chess pieces on a road, they are distinguished by front and back without specifying which road they are on. For example, if there are two of our rooks on road two, moving the front rook one step forward means the front rook moves forward one step.

What is the name of the river in chess?

1. It is called: the boundary between Chu and Han.

2. The Border between Chu and Han is a historical allusion. During the Chu-Han contention period in the late Qin Dynasty, in the summer of 205 BC, Xiang Yu defeated the Han army in Pengcheng. Liu Bang retreated to Xingyang, an important town on the south bank of the Yellow River. The Chu army pursued the victory and attacked each other in the Xingyang area for two years.

3. The chessboard is made up of nine straight lines and ten horizontal lines. There are ninety intersections on the chessboard, and the chess pieces are placed and moved at these intersections. The place in the middle of the chessboard where there is no straight line is called "Chu River and Han Boundary"; the place where there are cross lines is called "Nine Palaces".

Can the cannon in chess move randomly?

1. The cannon in chess can move in a straight line, either vertically or horizontally. As long as there is no chess piece blocking the middle of the straight line, there is no limit to the number of squares it can move.

2. A cannon must have a gun mount to capture a piece. For example, if there is a cannon on the left side of a straight line and the opponent's piece is on the right side, there must be a piece in the middle of the straight line as a gun mount in order for the cannon to capture the opponent. If there is no piece in the middle to serve as a gun mount, the cannon cannot be captured. The gun mount can be either your own piece or the opponent's piece.

3. When there is a gun mount, the cannon can only capture the first chess piece behind the gun mount.

How to define the elephant in chess as a clumsy

When the elephant moves in a field shape, if there are other flags at the center point of the field shape it passes through, it will be the elephant's eye.

In Chinese chess, as the saying goes, the horse moves in the sun and the elephant moves in the field. The elephant can only move in the field, which means that the field is regarded as a square. When moving, the elephant can move from one diagonal to another. However, one thing that should be noted is that if there are other chess pieces at the intersection of two adjacent sides of the field, the elephant cannot be moved to the intersection of the opposite sides. This situation is also called "bad elephant legs", which means lame. Moreover, the elephant cannot cross the river. The river here refers to the Chu River and the border between Han.
