This is an ancient poem that satirizes the present and expresses grief and indignation. The first two sentences of the poem are surprising and straightforward, suggesting that people "live as outstanding people", make contributions to the country and serve the court; "Death" should also be a "ghost hero" to be a hero with indomitable spirit. Deep patriotism gushed out and shocked people. In the last two sentences, the poet satirizes the shameless behavior of those in power in the Southern Song Dynasty by praising Xiang Yu's tragic behavior.
This poem clearly puts forward the value orientation of life: people should be heroes in life and contribute to the country; Even if you die, you have to die for your country and become a hero in ghosts. Patriotic passion, beyond words, was really inspiring. The rulers of the southern song dynasty ignored the lives of the people and only cared about their own escape; Abandon the rivers and mountains of the Central Plains and drag out an ignoble existence. Therefore, the poet remembered Xiang Yu and used Xiang Yu's feat to lash out at the shameless behavior of the rulers in the Southern Song Dynasty.
