2.Rb8+ QxR
3.QxR and black can’t stop mate on g7 or f7.
henryk well done.
Without seeing your
right solution I came up with the same stuff with more lines detailed out. Ignore the move numbers. I don’t know why my ChessCat viewer has started counting from 32.
32. Nxf6+! Rxf6
( 32… Kg7 33. h6+ Kxh6 34. Qh4+ Kg7 35. Qxh7# )
( 32… Kh8 33. Ne8+ Rf6 34. Qxf6+ Kg8 35. Qg7# )
33. Rb8+! Qxb8
34. Qxf6
Black can not stop the mate on g7

2.Ng8+ Rf6 (2…KxN 3.Qg7#)
