It's Zhou Heyang's turn to take charge of the black eight sections in this Council, which naturally has a certain advantage. At the beginning, the two sides try to avoid the popular set, so the black foreplay has enough field, which is very suitable for Zhou Heyang's style of baduan. In order to save the situation, Chang Hao nine decisive in 96 hand cast out the winner hand. Take the strategy of discarding about 40 goals of a dragon first, fighting for it, and then desperately eating a piece of black chess. Zhou Heyang's victory made the midfield a piece of chess, and the situation returned to the slightly favorable situation of black chess.
