World Championship of Chinese Chess, Round 1

I am playing in the World Championship of Chinese Chess or Xiangqi in Munich Germany.
I just completed my first round game. I seemed to be playing well and possibly even to be winning. Unfortunately, I blundered on move 26 and lost.
My first round opponent was the Champion of Vietnam. Here is the game:
P = Pawn or Soldier
C = Cannon
H = Horse or Knight
R = Rook or Chariot
E = Elephant or Bishop or Minister
G = Guard
K = King or General
