What's the difference between China chess and Japanese chess?

China Chess is a two-person antagonistic game in which two players take turns to play chess. The tactics follow the operational idea of "defeating the enemy without fighting, and being good at general is also good" in ancient Sun Tzu's Art of War, and the opponent wins by "death" or "being trapped".

In the game, the player who holds the red chess goes first, and the two sides take turns to take one step each, until the game is over. In chess, people can improve their thinking ability from the changes of complex relationships such as attack and defense, reality, whole and part.

The chessboard of chess is a grid array with horizontal lines 10 and vertical lines 10, and the chess pieces are placed in the grid, which is a chessboard with 9 rows and 9 columns. The three lines close to oneself are local arrays, and the three lines away from oneself and close to opponents are enemy arrays.

Second, the pieces are different.

Layout is the initial stage of a chess game and the foundation of the whole, just like the arrangement of troops in a military war, which is also called the opening. It has a decisive influence on the formation and development of the situation in the middle game, and sometimes even directly determines the outcome of both sides.

Therefore, both sides try their best to achieve a favorable situation in the layout stage. There are no clear boundaries and specific provisions for the division of layout and central bureau. Generally, the layout ends around 10- 15, and it is transferred to the middle game.

Chess layout plays an extremely important strategic role in the overall situation, especially the success or failure of high-level players depends largely on the degree of research on layout.

In 1960s and 1970s, Master Hu Ronghua made great achievements in the field of layout. This is related to the limitations of its era. Today's layout has reached a considerable breadth and depth, and it is developing in the direction of high, fine, deep and micro.
