hum... taking immediatly this Elephant is perhaps not the best solution, because Cannon is then stucked... Finally, I wonder if Red has a big advantage on this position...

Maybe that's also a good idea to change files, but this has to be checked also with Zillions engine, in order to see there's no other great advantage to Red(Knight moves have to be fixed first)... At first sight, it seems to be equilibrate.

Starting with Cannon file exchange (d2 & b5), there's an other
zillions implementation error(with cannons?), where the Red General is not allowed to move:
1. Horse b1 - c3; 1. Horse d6 - e4
2. Cannon d2 - e2; 2. Cannon b5 - a5
3. Horse c3 x e4; 3. Cannon a5 x a1
4. Horse e4 - c5; 4. Mandarin b6 x c5
5. Cannon e2 x e6; 5. Elephant c6 - e4
