Very good teamwork, indeed.. Thanks for sharing, @MrPushwood !
@Black_Dragoon , you could have mated in two, too!
It took me long to find it, but okay, I do not play a lot of chess..
I fiddled with the position so that the mate in 4 would be the only solution, but I could not verify it. It sure would make a nice puzzle..

Probably every good player would chose the easy pragmatic approach i.e. winning easily a whole rook with check.
Yes...
I got Mate in 4 !

You got the first move right (but on 1... Kf6 2 Qg7#).
The full solution is: 1 Qh7+ Kg5 2 Rg7+ Kf6 3 Rg6+ Ke5 4 Qg7#.
