puzzle 40 a + b
to mail do not "mail" too
How about....
a) 1. Ng4 - queen must retreat diagonally. 2. Nxp ch. Kh8 3. Nxp ch.
If rook or queen takes the knight the queen moves to h3 with checkmate following. 3b. Kg8.
But I don't see much after that. I've gained two pawns and have a good position against a weakened king position. I would move the knight back to g5 and start another attack.
What did I miss?
