"What's life like when drinking is a song? For example, the morning dew is much harder to go to Japan. " Ever heard of it? Cao Cao's short line song
Cao Cao's poems are greatly influenced by Yuefu, and the existing poems are all Yuefu songs. Although these poems use the old theme of Yuefu, they do not follow the poetry of the ancients, create new ways and are not bound, but they inherit the spirit of "feeling sad and happy, and arising from things". For example, "Lu Lu Xing" and "Hao Li Xing" were originally elegies, but Cao Cao used them to mourn the chaos. Walking out of the East Gate was originally a tune lamenting the impermanence of life and the need to eat, drink and be merry in time, but Cao Cao used it to express his ambition to unify the whole country and the magnificent scenery he saw when he returned from the northern expedition. It can be seen that Cao Cao's innovative folk songs opened up a new style of Jian 'an literature and influenced Du Fu, Bai Juyi and others later.
Cao Cao's poems have three kinds of contents: reflecting the turbulent reality in the late Han Dynasty, the ideal of unifying the world and tenacious enterprising spirit, and expressing unforgettable negative emotions.
There was chaos in the late Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao made expeditions to the north from the south, and he was in contact with a wide range of society. Therefore, he had many personal experiences and understandings, such as Hao Lixing, which described the tragic scene of the war in the late Han Dynasty. When he saw the misery of the people, he also saw the poet's feelings of compassion when he was hurt. Therefore, later generations called Cao Cao Yuefu "a record of the late Han Dynasty, a true history of poetry".
Cao Cao was born in an official position, and he has ambitions for the world, so he has a grand plan of unity. The short song line has a saying that "the Duke of Zhou spits out and feeds, and the world returns to his heart". Its enterprising spirit can also be seen. For example, in "Although the tortoise is long-lived", it is said that he will not give up his ambition even in his later years.
a generation of heroes, the scenery lasts for a lifetime, and sometimes the stars go down and die. Cao Cao also felt helpless about this, only to make poems and sigh, helpless. For example, the sadness of "morning dew, going to the sun is much more painful" in Short Songs, the low mood in Autumn Hu Xing, and his negative emotions can be seen in the works of wandering immortals such as Mo Shang Sang.
Cao Cao's poetic form is very innovative. He is especially good at writing five-character and four-character styles. Hao Li Xing was originally a miscellaneous word, but Cao Cao rewrote it in five words, which was very successful. Four-character poems have declined since the Book of Songs, and there are few excellent works, but Cao Cao has inherited the traditions of Guofeng and Xiaoya, reflecting reality and expressing emotions. For example, "Short Songs" and "Walking Out of the Summer Gate" are all masterpieces of four-character poems, which make them reborn and shine again. Cao Cao's poems are simple, straightforward, generous, sad, gloomy and vigorous, and colorful words are not common, but vivid, such as the poem "Watching the Sea": "The autumn wind is bleak, the waves are surging, and the trip to the sun and the moon, if out of it, the stars and the Han are brilliant, if out of it." A few strokes can show the poet's mind with a vast sea scene without retouching.
Cao Cao (155-March 15th, 22), a Geely, with the word Meng De and the small word A Yun, was born in Peiguoqiao County (now Bozhou City, Anhui Province). China was a strategist, politician and poet in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Cao Cao was born in an official family, and his father Cao Song's real name was Xiahou. Later, he became the adopted son of Da Changqiu Cao Teng, a servant of Zhong Chang, so he changed his surname to Cao Shi. Cao Cao is both civil and military. The Book of Wei says that he "shoots birds with his hands, bows birds and beasts, tastes them in Nanpi, and shoots 63 pheasants a day". The History of the Three Kingdoms said that he was "talented and martial." In 175 AD, Ju Xiaolian was appointed as the commandant of Luoyang Department. In 177 AD, he was appointed as Dun Qiu Ling, married Bian Shi in 179 AD, and was promoted to Yi Lang in 18 AD. In 184 AD, he started in the war of suppressing the Yellow Scarf Army uprising in the Eastern Han Dynasty and served as a captain. Because of the active suppression of the yellow turban insurrectionary army, he was promoted to Jinan. Later, he served as a prefect, a captain and a captain of the standard army in the East County. After Dong Zhuo entered Beijing in 189 A.D., he fled to his hometown, where Chen Liu left to fight against Dong Zhuo. In 192 AD, he formally established his own military group "Qingzhou Bing". In 196 AD, he led troops to Luoyang to welcome Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, "relying on the emperor to make princes" and moved the capital to Xu. From 2 AD to 27 AD, after the battle of Guandu and other battles, Yuan Shao and other separatist warlords were defeated and the northern part of China was unified. In December of the 13th year of Jian 'an (28), he was defeated by Sun Quan and Liu Bei in Battle of Red Cliffs, which laid the foundation for the tripartite confrontation between Wei Shuwu and China in the history of China. In 213 AD, Cao Cao was named "Duke Wei". In 215 AD, Zhang Lu forces in Hanzhong were defeated. In 216 AD, he was once again promoted to the rank of "Wang Wei", wearing a banner and a crown of the Emperor, which was called a warning sign. He is nominally a minister of the Han Dynasty, but he is in power in one's hand and in one's hand, and is actually an emperor. Cao Cao died on March 15th, AD 22, at the age of 66. In 22 AD, Cao Pi, the eldest son, established the Wei Dynasty in Han Dynasty and revered Cao Cao as Wei Wudi. He is the founder of Wei State. He is the author of military works such as A Brief Explanation of Sun Tzu and A Brief Introduction to the Art of War, and poems such as Hao Li Xing, Watching the Sea, and Gui Although Shou. Later generations also compiled Cao Cao Ji.
The history books comment on Cao Cao: "Being brilliant is the best", "An extraordinary person, a peerless outstanding person", "A capable minister in managing the world, a treacherous man in troubled times", and "Poems are composed in a horizontal way, which is also a hero in a lifetime." The famous "Let the County Understand the Book" was written in the fifteenth year of Jian 'an (21), which is aboveboard and sincere in every word. Cao Cao said emotionally, "Let there be no orphans in the world. I don't know how many people will be the emperor and how many people will be the king." That's true.
In the long historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there is an obvious way to belittle Cao. However, later scholars believe that this is a deliberate distortion of the facts and does not correctly evaluate Cao Cao. Cao Cao is talented and versatile, and his tactical strategy is flexible and changeable in the military. He made great contributions to the unification of northern China, the recovery of economic production and the maintenance of social order in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. In terms of internal affairs, Cao Cao established the system of reclaiming farmland and ordered soldiers who didn't have to fight to go to the fields to farm, thus alleviating the food problem in the wartime at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
