      <image:caption>Red moves first. The red soldier cannot directly move forward and attack the black General, so the red player should move B5B6 to use the General to support the Soldier. If black moves J4I5, then red can move H6I6, followed by black’s J6J5. Then red will move B6B5 to pin the black Advisor from escaping. Red soldier must capture the Advisor in the next move and checkmate.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. By analyzing the situation, we can see that Black has position disadvantage as the coordination between E5 Chariot, D7 Horse, and A9 Cannon is bringing serious threats to red’s defense. Therefore, Red's best response is E7E9, forcing Black to exchange his Cannon. At this point, Black's powerful Bottom Rank cannon has no escape, and can only exchange the red cannon with his horse or cannon.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Black to move. On red's previous move, E7F7, red sacrifices his Soldier. If black captures the Soldier without noticing red’s intention, on the next move, red must gain a Chariot by move E2E9.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Articles &amp; Blogs - 10 most important Chinese chess mid-game principles - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Black to move. At this point, Black has two Chariots against Red's only Chariot, and a good strategy is to exchange Red's only Chariot. So, Black moves H3G5, inviting the red Chariot to exchange, and at the same time getting rid of the red Chariot's pin on the Horse. If Red avoids the exchange, Black can attack by H6C6, which is difficult for Red to defend. Therefore, Red can only accept the exchange, which leads to the situation where Black has the advantage of “Having a Chariot is better than no Chariot”.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. In this situation, Black has formed an offensive on Red's right flank, with the Cannon aiming at Red's bottom Elephant and the B8 Horse on a very threatening position. The best move of red here is C5C2 to strengthen the defense by aiming for linking the elephants in the later moves. In the actual game, Red captured the Horse by F2J2, a huge mistake of “overvaluing materials”, then Black made a J8G8 move to chase the horse while preparing a mate threat of G8G6. Red is then at a huge disadvantage.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. If red directly moves G2E2 to chase the Horse, the black Horse can C7C5 to escape, red cannot catch it. However, if Red first G2I2 to check, forcing Black General to escape by I4J4, then I2E2 to create a double attack of E2E4 mate threat and E2E5 Capture. There is no way for the Black to defend them both, hence Red captures the E5 Horse by intermediate move.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. At this point, the situation is tense. Red's Chariot and double Cannons have formed a strong offensive on the front line, but Black is threatening Red's central file. At this point, Red makes a clever move, C1B3, to stop the Black offensive by protecting the C5 Elephant, so he can perform his offensive without worrying about his back.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. At this point, the black I5 advisor is pinned by red central Cannon, hence black is prone to be attacked by red Chariot from file 4. Red seized the opportunity by making the F8F4 move to control file 4 to prepare for the Iron-Bolt attack, and won by this tactic not long later.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. Black's two Chariots are both in dangerous positions, as the B3 Chariot is being isolated and the G4 Chariot is blocked by its soldiers. Targeting this weakness, Red made the C5C7 move to threaten to capture Black’s B3 Chariot, black can only escape the Chariot by B3B2, then red moves C7G7 to double attack Black's G4 Chariot and J7 Elephant at the same time, black must escape his G4 Chariot and see the red Cannon captures the J7 Elephant and form a strong offensive with the A8 Chariot and E6 Horse on his left flank.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Red to move. At this point, Black's Centroid Horse is 2pinned by the Red Chariot and cannot escape, while at the same time restricting the movement of his general and the two advisors. Taking advantage of this, Red makes a brilliant move of sacrificing the Chariot by G5H5 to form a checkmate. If Black captures the H5 Chariot by its Chariot, Red can checkmate by G6I7; if Black captures the Chariot with an Elephant, Red can checkmate by G6H4. This is a typical case of a player being defeated due to not handling the Centroid Horse properly.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>For novice Chinese chess players, you can try the classic "three steps tiger" opening, which means developing the Cannon to C5, Horse to C7, and then Chariot to A8 in the first three moves of the opening.

      <image:title>The History and Origins of Xiangqi - History of Chinese Chess Pieces</image:title>
      <image:caption>Why does Chinese Chess use red and black pieces? Liu Bang was a rebel leader who overthrew the Qin dynasty and became Emperor Gaozu of the Han dynasty. Emperor Qin’s army marched to battle in black uniforms and lost to Liu Bang’s red army. Legend has it that Liu Bang was wasted and decided to walk through a marsh despite warnings that it was dangerous. While drunkenly wandering through a marsh, a large black snake confronted him and he somehow managed to slay it; he passed out a small distance away. The next day an old lady was mourning the snake’s death because apparently her son was an Emperor that had turned into the snake. The old lady said her son (the snake) was slain by the “Crimson Emperor.” Upon hearing this comedy, Liu Bang used red to represent his army.</image:caption>
