Make an appreciative comment

Poetry begins with a scene. "High in the faint moonlight, geese are soaring" is not the scene in the eyes, but the scene in the heart. A few words not only interpreted time as winter, but also set off the tension before the war. The second sentence is about the enemy fleeing in panic by moonlight. The poem is full of positive tone, clear judgment, contempt for the enemy and belief in the victory of our army, which excites readers. The third sentence further highlights the confidence of the warrior, and the last sentence expresses the arduousness of the battle and the brave spirit of the warrior.

Creation background

When the author wrote this poem, his life and career were extremely unsatisfactory. After the Zhu Rebellion, Hun Wang of Xianning went out of Zhenhe and promoted Lu Lun as the judge of Marshal's Office. In the military camp, what Lu Lun saw was a solemn frontier fortress scene, and all the soldiers he came into contact with were rough and heroic, so he felt something and wrote this frontier fortress poem.
