This is a poem written by Cao Song in the Tang Dynasty. The whole poem is as follows: Zeguo Jiangshan entered the war map, and the people were happy. Please don't mention anything about Hou Feng, how many lives will be sacrificed for a person's success! These two sentences reveal a common phenomenon in feudal society. General Shao's exploits were bought with the lives of thousands of people in Qian Qian. In the poet's view, the fact that he is the most glorious in feudal society is a sin. Zhang Chang's "Poor bones saved the solitary grave and wanted to find the meritorious service for the general" ("Hanging a mass grave") and the monk Liu's "The general praised his sword, and his contribution was to kill more people" ("Doing business is doing things") have the same effect. From the poet's sentimental exhortation, we can realize the depth of the war disaster. These two sentences are simple in language and profound in meaning, and they are a warning to the world.
