It seems like my king is in danger but the rule of rooks there along with my queen guarding c1 is fine. | ||||||||

Expected artillery fire from Black. | ||||||||

|
22. Rxe1 |
I do the rule of the rooks in the back place. Use them together... | ||||||||

I am protecting c3. Look where queens can go and respond. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
23... Qc3 |
She is backed by a rook and here she comes! Time to exchange the queens... | ||||||||
| | |||||||||

Exchange. | ||||||||

This move seems so small but really it was the best move for me to make. It is because when a rook comes downrange a rook can create a lot of havoc with pawns sitting in original positions that may not seem to be in immediate danger. However, if I left that a2 pawn back where it was from the beginning I may as well have sacrificed it. | ||||||||

Moving the King square by square... | ||||||||

I need to pay attention to that isolated pawn. I attack it. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
26... Rc5 |
He defends it. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
27. Kf1 |
I need my king close to the rook and the bishop as soon as possible. | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
27... Re5 |
And this is why! | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
28. Bf3 |
Counter artillery! | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
28... Rc5 |
Retreating back from my counter fire! With the need of the King to do it! | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
29. Ke2 |
What side of the board should my king be on? Answer: the LEFT! Now is the time to move him NOW! | ||||||||
| | |||||||||

Now I am crossing over with my king to the LEFT square by painstaking square... | ||||||||
| | |||||||||
|
30... Rxe1 |
Oh well. Another trade. | ||||||||
