4. Appreciation
"Song of the Great Wind" is a poem written by Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty. It expresses the author's lofty political ambitions and also expresses his complicated mood of worries about national affairs.
This poem has only three lines. The first two lines express one's heart directly, are heroic and self-restrained, and appear to be smug and ambitious. The third line suddenly reveals the anxiety of an uncertain future, expressing the author's inner feelings about the country. Stable and rich melancholy. The whole poem is coherent, simple in language and majestic. It contains dual thoughts and feelings and is unique.
There is "xi" in every sentence of this poem. Although Pei County, Liu Bang's hometown, was originally a Song Dynasty, it has been occupied by the Chu State for a hundred years, so the writing style is naturally tainted with some Chu style. Because of the tragedy of its representative figure Qu Yuan, Chu Ci became a literary style for expressing resentment. And because of the strong folk customs in Chu, Chu Ci became more majestic. Liu Bang chose this style of writing to appropriately express his concern for the rise and fall of his family and country without losing his kingly demeanor.
The entire poem "Song of the Wind" consists of only three lines, which is extremely rare in the history of Chinese poetry. Each of the three lines represents a vastly different scene and mood, and the author's These three lines of poetry are truly precious and highly condensed. Among them, the first line, "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying" is the most amazing line in ancient and modern times. The author does not directly describe how he and his men annihilated the enemy troops who severely damaged the rebellion on the magnificent battlefield, but very cleverly uses strong winds and flying dark clouds to metaphorize this thrilling war scene.
If Xiang Yu's "Gaixia Song" expresses the sadness of the loser, then "Song of the Gale" shows the sadness of the winner. As the link between these two sorrows, it is the sentimentality of human insignificance. Similarly, regarding the first sentence "The strong wind is blowing and the clouds are flying", Li Shan of the Tang Dynasty once explained: "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, which is a metaphor for the competition among heroes, and the world is in chaos." (See "Selected Works" annotated by Li Shan in the Jiguge Edition. 》Volume 28) This is right. "The heroes compete and the world is in chaos" obviously refers to the situation in the late Qin Dynasty when heroes competed for the world. The word "hero" in "competition among heroes" is called "male" in some books of "Selected Works". If the original text is like this, it should refer to the rebellion of Yingbu and others in the early Han Dynasty. But on the one hand, these rebellions were launched one after another, not at the same time, and should not be said to be "competition between fierce groups"; on the other hand, they were all rebellions in local areas, and did not spread to the whole country, so they should not be said to be "chaos in the world." Therefore, it should be regarded as "heroic".
"Wei Jiahai returns home", just one word "Wei" vividly and aptly explains that all the princes surrendered at the feet of Liu Bang, the Emperor of Han Dynasty, and one word "Wei" also directly expresses Liu Bang's Majestic and powerful, no one in the world can match the soaring heroic spirit of a giant.
Returning to his hometown with such honor, Liu Bang felt so glorious and majestic! Liu Bang was saying that he won the throne under such circumstances and was therefore able to return in glory. Therefore, in these two sentences, Liu Bang frankly admitted that his ability to "power the country" first relied on the situation of "strong winds and flying clouds". However, just as the situation cannot be controlled by human power, this situation was not caused by Liu Bang. He was just lucky enough to encounter this situation. From this point of view, it was an accident that he ascended to the throne of God. Although his contemporaries were as lucky as him in this regard, and his final success was due to his hard work and talent; but for a person like Liu Bang who came from a humble background, if he hadn't encountered such a In this era, how useful are his efforts and talents? Therefore, no matter how you say it, he became the emperor firstly by luck, and secondly by his own efforts and talents. He compared the objective conditions that pushed him to the throne of emperor with the changes in nature, which the current man had no control over, at least unconsciously showing some of his psychological activities!
Whether Liu Bang regards his luck as an arrangement from God or a pure chance, it is not something he can decide. In other words, maximize your talents; but how effective all this will be depends on luck. As an emperor, in order to protect the world, he must have warriors guarding him in all directions, but are there such warriors in the world? If so, can he find them and make them work for him? It's not entirely up to him.
Compared with the previous sentence, the last sentence of "The warriors are ready to guard the four directions" expresses his feelings and thoughts directly. However, in this last sentence, Liu Bang did not continue to be immersed in the great joy after victory. And in the halo, and with a change of pen, he writes about another huge pressure that the heart will face. It is difficult to conquer a country, but even harder to defend it! When you are prepared for danger in times of peace, how can you prevent the country you and your soldiers have built with hard work from being lost to others in the future? When you return home, where can you select better warriors to consolidate your country? Make the country of Han Dynasty impregnable! Therefore, the third sentence, "The strong warriors are here to guard the four directions" is both a hope and a question. He hopes to do this, but can he really do it? He himself had no answer. It can be said that he was not only unsure about whether he could find warriors to defend the four sides, that is, whether his world could be defended, but he was also deeply worried and uneasy. It is precisely because of this that although the first two lines of this song appear to be ambitious, the third line suddenly reveals the anxiety and fear of an uncertain future. If, as a loser, Xiang Yu once lamented that man would never be able to defeat heaven, then a similar sad sound resounded in the song of the winner Liu Bang. It is no wonder that when he danced to the song, It is time to "be generous and sad, and weep for several lines" ("Book of Han·Gaodi Ji"). 2.

4. Appreciation
"Gaixia Song" is a desperate poem written by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, on the eve of a fatal battle before his defeat. This poem summarizes Xiang Yu's life achievements and heroic spirit, expresses his pity for beauties and famous horses, and expresses his resentment and helplessness when surrounded by Han troops.
The whole poem vividly shows the author's all-powerful spirit through the combination of virtuality and reality, which is both filled with unparalleled heroic spirit and full of deep affection; it not only shows rare self-confidence, but also sighs heavily for the insignificance of human beings. It is truly a miracle to express such rich content and complex emotions in just four sentences.
In the sentence "Strengthening the mountains and overwhelming the world", Xiang Yu summarizes his all-powerful achievements. Xiang Yu is the son of a general, a young man with great energy, strong enough to carry a cauldron, and extremely talented. He had great ambitions, and when faced with the arrogant Qin Shihuang, he dared to say "he can replace him". Xiang Yu is an indomitable hero. At the age of 23, he followed his uncle Xiang Liang in revolting against the Qin Dynasty. He led eight thousand people from the east of the Yangtze River to join the uprising and became the best leader among all the uprising leaders. In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu fought bloody battles with the Qin army, which was several times his own. He miraculously destroyed the main force of the Qin army, and was elected as "General" by various princes. After that, Xiang was invincible until he marched into Xianyang and proclaimed himself the Overlord of Western Chu. But it can also be seen from this poem that Xiang Yu exaggerated his personal power, which was an important reason for his failure.
"When the weather is unfavorable, even the black horse refuses to move forward." Xiang Yu is not the pride of the new era, but a victim of the old system. During the four-year Chu-Han War, although he fought seventy battles with the Han army, fought half a hundred small battles, and won many battles, he was still an ordinary man who was neither good at employing people nor judging the situation. His failure was fundamentally It's not God's will, it's all your own fault.
"What can you do if your glory is not gone, but what can you do if you are worried?" This is Xiang Yu's lament when facing a desperate situation. Xiang Yu was chased by the Han army and retreated to Gaixia, where he was surrounded by the Han army. As a result, everyone rebelled and fled, leaving only his beloved poppy in the tent. He couldn't sleep at night, so he met Yu Ji quietly, drinking to drown his sorrows. Suddenly, waves of Chu came from all directions. Xiang Yu was stunned and exclaimed, "Are all the Han people in Chu? How many people are there in Chu?" Xiang Yu knew that his demise was inevitable and his career was about to disappear, but he No nostalgia, no regrets, not even sighs. The only thing he worries about is the future of his beloved beauty Yu Ji, who often accompanies him on his expeditions; there is no doubt that after his death, Yu Ji's fate will be very tragic. As a result, the sharp and unbearable pain gnawed deeply into his heart, and he sang the last line of the song with infinite sadness: "What can I do if I am worried?" This was Xiang Yu's lament when he faced a desperate situation, This short sentence contains extremely deep and unforgettable love. Yu Ji was also very sad, with tears in her eyes. She stood up and danced with her sword. She danced and sang at the same time. She sang: "The Han soldiers have captured the territory, and there are songs from all directions. The king is exhausted, how can I survive as a humble concubine?" ("He Xiang Wang Ge") ") After singing, he committed suicide, which was very tragic.
Compared to the eternal nature, individual people are extremely fragile. Even heroes are just like a big wave in the endless river of history. They are fleeting and make people sigh. ; But love lasts forever. It has always been one of the powerful spiritual pillars for human beings to make themselves stronger and purer. Even if they are murderous demons, they will inevitably fall down and prostrate themselves in front of love. People admire. Although "Gaixia Song" is short in length, it profoundly expresses these two aspects of life.
