Position of the Day (Answer)...

Honestly, I think I'm confused with the answer given. Here's the position...


Chess Monthly gives the following answer: 1. Rc6? Threat Re4# (mate) 1... Bxc6, Rcxc6 2. Qb6 Qf4, Qa7# (mate) but 1... Rhxc6 Solution: 1. Rf6! Bxf6 2. Ne6, Be5# mate.

However, I figured it out as 1. Rxh6 Bxh6 2. Ne6# (mate), I dunno if there is a Black reply.
