Set to English: Setting button -> θ―θ¨ ->English 1γ Chessboard: 1. The chessboard is 9X9 square, with 9 soldiers, 6 ministers, 2 bodyguards and 1 lord at the beginning 2. The border divides the battlefield into two parts, and the ability of a few arms is limited by the border 3. There are two fortresses in the border. The units stationed in the fortress will not be attacked and cannot attack others. It will take one step to leave the fortress. If there are units around the fortress, they cannot leave the fortress. 2γ Undercover: 1. Insertion: At the beginning of the game, spies can be secretly planted in the other unit, and two ways can be selected: A. Two spies are randomly placed in the [Soldier], but neither side knows which one is the spy before the spy turns against the enemy. B. Insert a spy in the [minister], and the spy can be known by his side throughout the whole process. The spy can be upgraded, walked and attacked by the opponent normally, and can't do any operation before the enemy's spy turns back. 2. Backwater: It takes one step to reverse. The reverse unit inherits the skills of the previous unit and changes the camp after the flop. If the spy selected previously is [soldier], then at some time, it will require a counterattack. At this time, it will reveal the units previously installed, and of course, it may have been eaten up by itself. 3γ Advanced Low-level chess pieces can be advanced in various ways, and have different functions after advanced
