Huang Wei - Hu Ming, 1995
1995 National Individual Championship · 1995 · Huang Wei (red) vs Hu Ming (black)
Huang Wei has Red against Hu Ming. She opens with the pointing finger and then advances a second soldier, which gives the two-headed snake.
After the horses are traded, Black wins a soldier and stays a soldier up until the last moves. The game is decided in front of Black's general, where Red's horse takes an elephant and Red's chariot takes an advisor on consecutive moves. It shows how an attack on the general can count for more than an extra soldier.
