Chapter 192 Playing Chess
Tyrion ordered a bargaining, "Let's do this, come and play the game and decide the winner or lose?"
"Play chess?"
Seeing Lynn's surprised expression, Tyrion smiled and said, "As a nobleman, don't tell me you don't know?"
Lynn knows chess, and the chess here is basically the same as chess, but the meaning and shape of the chess piece are completely different in previous lives.
Lynn's mansion has a similar chess board, but he has never really played chess in this world. He blinked and asked Tyrion.
"Why did you propose to play chess?"
Tyrion looked up at Lynn and said seriously: "Because I can't beat you, but I want to go to the brothel to talk about things, not the cold outdoors."
Lynn narrowed his eyes, "You can beg me."
"The dignity of the Lannister family..."
Lynn didn't want to mess around, "Okay, you understand that you are trying to get a pitiful psychological initiative before negotiations, but I have always respected the guests and told you what to do?"
Tyrion cheered up, put his hands on the table in front of him and rubbed them happily like an old gambler: "Win, brothel. Lost... Send me to see my brother James. If I can't win you, I will be sure that I can't save him."
When I saw Lynn, I started to think.
Tyrion's eyes flipped, "If you don't know, you can..."
Lin Neng recalled the chess paths that he had vaguely remembered in his mind, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Of course, this is, but my chess path is a bit weird. Although I often played it when I was a child, I haven't touched these chess games for a long time. Because I have never lost playing chess, I have even forgotten where the chess board is, so I asked the servant to look for it."
Tyrion looked at Lynn worriedly. This young upstart in the northern border, Duke Rothschild, guarding the northern border, seemed to be a very proud nobleman. He didn't know where the chessboard was thrown in, and even boasted that he had never lost playing chess.
However, if the little demon changes the project because of this, he will no longer be called the little demon.
Keep your thinking clear and sharp, and know that people are under the eaves, this is not the time to give in.
He took the initiative to speak to Bolon in the distance and said, "Go to my accompanying items to play chess."
Chess games are popular between nobles and kings, and are games of the upper class. Ordinary people cannot access them so they cannot learn them. This thing has not been spread among the people yet.
When the carefully polished chess pieces and boards of oak were placed in front of the table in front of Lynn.
The weird shape made Lynn unable to even recognize the meaning of each piece.
Fortunately, watching Tyrion start placing chess pieces, it seems no different from the chess in his previous life.
The chessboard is three-dimensional, carved with two slightly raised castles, where it should be a chess piece, or a shelter, just like a medieval home.
Lynn took different carved pieces and slowly played them between his slender palms, while Tyrion secretly observed his performance on the opposite side.
Soon the little devil's face became relaxed. He was almost certain that Lynn was a chess novice. It was not that he looked at the newbie in carvings of each piece, but that his chess posture was as funny as holding a piece of dry bread. He was definitely not an old chess player.
The soldiers on the chessboard represent serfs or laborers, and the carving is almost like a farmer wearing a straw hat. The best thing to recognize is the knight on the chessboard, and a puppet rides a horse. There is nothing wrong with the knight.
Lynn is observing the chess pieces.
Tyrion's confidence gradually increased. He was a person who liked to play chess very much, but there were too few nobles who knew how to play chess and were willing to play with him. The little devil was not a person who liked to choose opponents. The opponent's chess skills were too low and he was not an opponent. This was not a problem.
As long as the opponent understands the rules of playing chess and has enough status, it is enough. The person who plays chess is the person, not the piece, and the person who defeats the chess player. The nobler the opponent's identity is, the more joy he will be when he wins.
Lynn Rothschild is just someone who is enough to make him excited after winning.
After Lin En thoroughly understood the meaning of each piece on the chessboard, the chess game began directly.
When the medieval aristocrats played chess, they were particularly frightened. The chess game of the nobles often liked to play with the chess pieces around the other king, especially if they did not kill the queen, they were almost unwilling to take the initiative to siege the king unless the king took the initiative to die.
In order to balance this, some non-professional competitions even set up rules that "the black chess behind the back are allowed to eat passers-by, and the white chess cannot be used first." Fools know how much advantage they will get when they take the white chess first.
But Tyrion, who is competitive, seems to have overlooked this.
Lin En took the white first and slowly advanced the ordinary soldiers carved by the name of the farmer.
Tyrion took the lead in letting the knights and the queen participate in the battle and entered the hinterland of Lynn's formation.
They have a perverted hobby of strangling all the opponents on the chessboard. They often take the lead in the beginning and do not seem to pay attention to the value of peasants and soldiers.
However, there are more peasant soldiers than any kind of chess pieces on the chessboard, and they are often sacrificed (abandoned) to protect more valuable chess pieces.
In the Middle Ages, serfs were considered only as private property of landowners. During this historical period, serfs lived extremely hard. They worked hard and died young. When wars raged around them, they were often not protected. They could be traded, used as transfers, or even sacrificed to allow landowners to escape harm.
Therefore, the nobles even thought that these peasant soldiers were just grass-roots when they played chess. When Lin En continued to advance peasant soldiers and crossed the line with him in the hinterland, he was disdainful of them.
Tyrion was smugly in the middle abdomen for a long time, and finally broke through Lin Neng's defense and strangled a pair of cavalrymen. At this moment, he glanced at the chessboard. Lin Neng's peasant soldiers all crossed the center line and were approaching the king. However, he had two bishops (elephant) defense, and suddenly felt a sense of pleasure that had not been seen for a long time. He smiled and said, "Mr. Lin Neng, these rounds of defense have been done well. If my queen and the cavalry had not forced your cavalry into the corner, they would not have been able to strangle them easily."
Lynn said in surprise, "My cavalry is gone?"
Tyrion smiled and said proudly: "Yes, it's a lot of effort."
Lynn said oh, and said to the little devil in confusion: "Did this chess kill the king to determine the winner or lose?"
The little devil said in confusion: "It's true, but you haven't lost yet. Don't worry, Lord Lynn, you still have a chance."
Lynn nodded, "That's it, but I'm afraid you'll have no chance."
As he said that, Lynn took the queen three steps and said lightly: "If this is the case, I have already won."
Tyrion tickled in surprise and looked at Lin Neng's eyes with disbelief, "Sir Lin Neng is not joking, right?"
Lynn smiled at the corner of his eyes and signaled the little devil to look down at the chessboard.
