China Chess is a kind of chess game that originated in China. The "elephant" in chess is a person. Legend has it that he is like Shun's younger brother. He likes fighting and killing people. He invented a game to simulate war. Because he invented it, he naturally called the game "chess". By the time of the establishment of the Western Han Dynasty at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Han Xin had changed the chess game greatly, and with Chu Jianghan, the king did not see the king (that is, the white-faced general).

This name is also called "Qi", which was later revised by later generations. Until the Song Dynasty (Song people don't like to repeat words), the original "pawn" of red chess was changed to "soldier", the "official" of black chess was changed to "scholar" and "phase" was changed to "elephant", and the shape of the chess was basically perfect. The river boundary in the chessboard is also called "Chu River Han Boundary".
