    I guess 1. f5!

    I don’t overlook all variations that arise, but one is:

    1. f5 Nxe6??
    2. fxe4+ Ke2 (Nxf8 Rxf8+)
    3. Qg2+ Ke3
    4. exd3

    Why don’t I see any answers to this post?
    To continue my first post, other lines are:

    1. f5 Ke2
    2. fxe4 Qxe4 (Nxe6? still fails to Qg2+. Rxe4 or Q other move both fail to Bg4#)
    3. Bg4+ Kd3
    4. Bf5
    winning queen.

    1. f5 Qg3?
    2. fxe4+ Ke2
    3. Qxg3

    1. f5 some Q move
    2. fxe4+ Ke2
    3. Bg4#

    So I am not able to see how white saves queen after 1. f5!

    And:
    1. f5 Nxe6
    2. fxe4+ Nxf8
    3. Rxf8+ Qf3
    4. Qg2+! Ke3
    5. Rxf3
