Different learning purposes require different learning methods. Generally speaking, you can learn to play chess for entertainment from actual combat. And you can learn how you want, there is no certain way. Fun is the end goal. Therefore, there is no need to be so boring during the learning process!
If you want to win on the chessboard. And we must achieve this goal as quickly as possible. Then you must learn in a way. This approach is as follows:
1. Learn the endgame first. And learn the practical endgame first. Start learning with "Chinese Chess Practical Endgame" compiled by Tu Jingming. This book is easy to learn, so just memorize it by rote. It is required to memorize every game. And it is required that in actual combat, as long as the endgame is reached and it conforms to the endgame formula in the book, it must be won. Even if you win by chance, you must win. For example, if you are in a draw, you must not lose.
Then learn to arrange the game, first learn red to win the game, and then learn to play red first to draw the game. This process is essential! Otherwise, it will be difficult to deeply understand the functions of each chess piece. If we cannot deeply understand the functions of each chess piece, how can we give full play to their power? From the current actual games played by many professional chess players, it can be seen that they are lacking in this part.
You can also learn the actual endgames of the masters later. Without the above two processes, it would be difficult to understand the actual endgame of the masters and learn better.
2. Learn the middle game: various commonly used middle game tactics, and the combination of various tactics. This process requires a deep understanding. Mere memorization of this process is not enough. The learning process of the middle game is much more difficult than the learning process of the end game. It can be said that this process begins to require talent. In other words, some understanding is needed. In other words, this process requires not only the ability to memorize by rote, but also the ability to use them comprehensively, and the ability to flexibly use these tactical combinations in actual combat.
At this stage, you can use a lot of actual combat to test what you have learned. The essence of what you need to learn at this stage is a deep understanding of various chess pieces! As well as the coordination, coordination and cooperative combat capabilities of various chess pieces! Not only the understanding of strong men, but also the understanding of weak men, including the understanding of soldiers, ministers, and generals. And the ability to fully utilize and exert the efficiency of these weak sons in actual combat, so that these weak sons can fully cooperate with the hadrons in coordinated operations to the maximum extent.
3. Learning Start: This is the final stage! This stage requires a solid foundation and a solid foundation from the previous two stages in order to learn. Otherwise it is impossible to learn the opening well. The difficulty of learning the opening is far greater than the first two processes combined. The beginning requires more talent and understanding!
This is determined by the purpose of the opening. Because the purpose of the opening is to have an advantage within 10 to 15 rounds! It doesn’t necessarily have to be dominant in 3 to 5 rounds! It is even allowed to use the apparent disadvantage as bait in the 3rd to 7th round to exchange for an advantage with the opponent in the 10th to 15th round!
The most difficult moves at the beginning are the moves around 4 to 6 rounds! Because he requires these rounds to fully maximize the efficiency of the moves in the previous rounds, and every subsequent move must be fully connected with these moves to extend the previous moves as much as possible. The efficiency of every move! And we must also consider the development of the situation in the future, that is, after several rounds, that is, 10 to 15 rounds. This development is not a voluntary development, but an objective development of the situation with the participation of the other party! ! !
If you don’t learn enough about the basics of the end game and middle game, then it will be as difficult for you to learn the opening game as Tang Monk learned to identify monsters. Because identifying monsters is not about memorizing the appearance of monsters, but training Sun Monkey's sharp eyes! Monkey Sun is incapable of teaching Tang Monk how to identify monsters. Because Sun Houhou told Tang Monk that the old man was transformed from a white-bone spirit and that the old man was a monster. This means nothing to Tang Seng.
Because after a while the white-bone demon turned into a beautiful woman, Tang Monk still didn't recognize her at all.
Many beginners think that learning openings means recognizing and memorizing the types of openings, their variations, etc. This is the same as Tang Monk learning to identify monsters. Even if you can have a photographic memory, it is meaningless. Firstly, there are too many types of monsters (there are many more types of monsters in chess openings than monsters!), and it is impossible to memorize them all. Secondly, monsters can change (the changes in Chinese chess openings are much greater than the changes in monsters). Much more!). Even if you memorize the appearance of the monster, once the monster changes, you will no longer recognize it.
The beginning of learning is like Monkey Sun exercising in Taishang Laojun’s Bagua Alchemy Furnace for seven or forty-nine days to acquire the ability of piercing eyes. No matter how the monster changes, you can still see through it! Monkey Sun's blazing eyes are not like carrying monsters around. No matter how the monster changes, Monkey Sun can recognize it at a glance.
What needs to be mastered in the opening is to be able to construct a stable and reasonable game structure, and this structure can adapt to the complex and fierce fighting in the middle game of chess and maintain the organic connection between each of our own chess pieces. Coordinate and cooperate to form a maximum combined force with sustainable capabilities, causing continuous pressure on the other party. If you don't have this ability, or you don't have the ability to learn, but just memorizing the types of Chinese chess openings and memorizing the various variations of Chinese chess openings, it's just like Tang Monk memorizing the patterns of various monsters, which is completely meaningless. ! Because there are many more types of Chinese chess than there are monster models, and there are many more types of opening variations in Chinese chess than there are monsters! ! !
It can be said like this: If all the current Chinese chess opening types and all variations are input into one software, then this software can compete with high-level chess players (referring to chess players who can master and use the opening ability). , this kind of person definitely takes advantage in the beginning!) People who master this ability are like Sun Monkey. No matter how various monsters change, they are no match for him. If a person with this kind of ability is high, he is basically like the Tathagata Buddha, and all kinds of monsters are no match for him. Even Monkey Sun is no match!
At present, the most advantageous aspect of Chinese chess software compared to humans is the middle game. The beginning and endgame are not as good as Pure Human. At the beginning of the game, the software is a bit like Tang Monk recognizing monsters. Still can't identify the abandoned trap. This is due to the calculation principle of the software (calculated by points).
Then the acquisition of this ability is the Eight Diagrams Alchemy Furnace of Taishang Laojun! The Bagua alchemy furnace of Chinese chess is a strict endgame and middle game training process! But this process is far longer than seventy-seven forty-nine days! ! !
If you don’t have enough endgame training as a foundation, reading a book specifically about the opening is the same as Tang Monk learning to identify the appearance of monsters.
Even if Tang Monk memorized the appearance of all the monsters on the West Heaven Road, he still couldn’t go to the West Heaven to learn scriptures alone! Otherwise, the consequences will be serious! ! ! Because no monster will pamper Tang Monk.
