First: what counts as winning?

Checkmate wins: the opposing general is attacked with no legal escape. Having no legal move also loses in xiangqi even without check (stalemate), unlike chess.

Capturing a rook or cannon, or giving one check, does not itself win. Check whether the opponent can move the general, block or capture the attacker.

Guided practice teaches the assigned moves. Decide whether the final position is mate by checking legal replies, not by the completion of a progress bar.
