2. Original text:
Two monarchs are at odds with each other. Two camps, taking advantage of the magical machine to decide life and death.
The horses gallop in the ten miles of territory, and the golden soldiers are shaken by the waves of the river.
The Concubine Yu sings and dances and mourns, and the Han Dynasty forces the banner to the city of Chu.
After all the excitement and planning have been exhausted, the chessboard is covered with shadows of flowers and trees.
3. Appreciation:
This is a poem about chess. In the border between Chu and Han, the two armies were facing each other, evenly matched, and the decisive battle was unfolding in the poem, which is very interesting. Xiangqi is one of the splendid cultural heritages of the Chinese nation.
