What this record looks like
This intermediate Xiangqi turning-point record uses 8 entries to compare two plans: Red C3=5 looks natural, but Black H6+7 changes the timing test. Board cue: red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2. Rule check: the cannon screen, horse leg, river, and palace guard constraints. The notation uses Xiangqi algebraic piece-file notation. The first two entries are 1. Red C3=5 | Black H6+7; 2. Red H8+3 | Black R2=8, which keeps the explanation tied to candidate moves, tempo, defensive replies, and the moment the plan changes.
Position cue

Unique asset
A self-authored SVG study diagram for this Xiangqi turning-point record marks red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2. It is paired with Xiangqi algebraic piece-file notation beginning 1. Red C3=5 | Black H6+7; 2. Red H8+3 | Black R2=8. The public reference image pub-xiangqi-red-chariot gives readers an open-gallery board or piece reference for the same game family.
Xiangqi rule check
Check this before the outside record: read 1. Red C3=5 | Black H6+7, name the rule source, test the position cue, and keep the mistake visible.
Open World Xiangqi FederationWorld Xiangqi Federation is the rule source to open first; use it for legal vocabulary before comparing this intermediate record.
Piece-file notation is not decoration; it tells the reader which piece moved, from which file, and whether the move advanced, retreated, or shifted. The rule card should be read beside the notation before judging the plan. In this lesson the first line is 1. Red C3=5 | Black H6+7.
Each piece has its own movement rule: chariots slide along open lines, horses step with a blockable leg, cannons move like chariots but capture over exactly one screen, elephants stay on their side of the river, advisors stay diagonal inside the palace, soldiers change after the river, and generals stay inside the palace. For this page, apply it to a central cannon file, a horse-leg block, and a river pawn that changes timing; two candidate plans and a turning point; red cannon file.
The common beginner trap is treating a cannon or horse as if it attacks freely. A cannon without the right screen or a horse with a blocked leg can make a move look active while the record shows it was illegal or harmless. Here the reader's mistake check is opening a rook file while the palace guard is still pinned.

1. Red C8=5 | Black H7+7Beginner Xiangqi records keep the line short, name the cannon or horse route, and stop at the first unsafe material grab.
Intermediate records compare two legal replies, usually a tempting active move against a move that protects the file, palace, or river lane.
Advanced records add quiet preparation and conversion checks, so the reader must track file pressure across several replies.

Common Mistake

Commentary
First reading pass for Xiangqi Turning Point: Timing Choice: Match move one Red C3=5 | Black H6+7; move two Red H8+3 | Black R2=8 to red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2. Then name the the cannon screen, horse leg, river, and palace guard constraints check before reading any branch.
The turning point: timing choice teaching point is not volume of moves. It is whether Red C3=5 still works after Black H6+7 is named.
The tempting move changes the board now, but a check or capture can be cosmetic if the cannon has no screen or the horse leg is blocked. In this fragment, that difference is visible at Red C3=5.
A player importing habits from another board game should slow down at red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2. The safe bridge is the cannon screen, horse leg, river, and palace guard constraints.
Exit test: quote move one Red C3=5 | Black H6+7; move two Red H8+3 | Black R2=8. Then explain why opening a rook file while the palace guard is still pinned was tempting before opening the next same-game record.

These links give the reader a small, game-specific reference trail before using a real database, rule source, or public board reference. They support comparison; they are not copied into this lesson.
Use this when a Xiangqi article teaches a cannon file, horse route, river crossing, or opening-shape habit and the reader wants to compare the lesson with real external game records.
Compare piece-file notation, opening family, cannon lane, horse-leg constraint, and palace pressure before judging whether an outside game is strategically similar.rules and positionXiangqi Rule NoteUse this when a page depends on legal movement, piece names, river/palace terms, or the difference between a legal teaching line and a complete historical score.
Compare rule vocabulary and legality first; then use the article's own notation sample only as a teaching cue.Comparison pathHow to compare this fragment with external records4 lookup steps; compare, do not copy a real score.
How to compare this fragment with external records
Use this as a reading route before opening external databases or classic-position references. The goal is comparison, not copying a real score into this lesson.
- 1Match the notation shape
Start with Piece-file notation and the sample 1. Red C3=5 | Black H6+7. Compare outside records only for notation shape before judging move quality.
- 2Anchor the same kind of position
Use this page cue: a central cannon file, a horse-leg block, and a river pawn that changes timing; two candidate plans and a turning point; red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2; the cannon screen, horse leg, river, and palace guard constraints check for the turning-point record Look for a similar board, tile, route, or threat problem, not an identical copied position.
- 3Read it as a intermediate lesson
Compare record length, annotation density, and the trained mistake: opening a rook file while the palace guard is still pinned. That is how this page explains what a intermediate record is for.
- 4Keep lesson and outside record separate
Use XQBase for real record lookup. This page remains a composed teaching fragment and is not a copied tournament score or named-player record.
Reference layerRules checked separately from the teaching fragment1 rule source link for notation and boundary checks.
Rules checked separately from the teaching fragment
These links support rule vocabulary, notation boundaries, and game-family context. They do not turn this composed study fragment into a tournament score or named-player record.

Public reference: The original study diagram is paired with Wikimedia Commons red Xiangqi chariot piece, a public-library reference for a red Xiangqi chariot piece symbol, matching articles that compare central-file pressure and rook development; used as game-material context before the reader checks the article-specific study diagram. It is a source-traced reference image, not a substitute for the composed fragment or the page-specific cue red cannon file 3, black horse file 6, and rook file 2.
