During the reign of Emperor Wendi, the Huns invaded the south, and Mulan's hometown suffered greatly. In order to resist its aggression, Mulan disguised herself as a man and joined the army instead of her father. She was chased as a filial daughter after her death.
Are there any Mulan in history? According to Bai Juyi's poem "Strange as Hell, Mulan came to be a girl" and Du Mu's poem "A man and a woman bowed and had thrush in their dreams", Cheng Dachang affirmed that Mulan was a real person. Some people think Mulan's surname is Wei, others say her surname is Song, while most people think her surname is Hua. Some articles have verified that "Mulan" is the surname of Xianbei nationality, so it is concluded that Mulan is Xianbei nationality.
Some people think that the above statement can only show that future generations like the heroic image of Mulan, so the poem wrote "Mulan", but it is not enough to prove that Mulan really exists. Judging from the whole poem, Mulan is a girl's name. Otherwise, what reason is there to face the name of the son of heaven? Kay said that "Grandpa has no eldest son", which means "Mulan has no big brother". What do you think? Some people think that Mulan may not be a real person, but northerners are arrogant and martial, and horse riding and archery have become the norm, not only for men but also for women. Therefore, "Mulan Poetry" should be a similar fact, polished by many unknown authors, sung by folk artists and spread by people of all ethnic groups, becoming a systematic story poem, and Mulan is a typical figure shaped in people's real life.
As for the evaluation of Mulan's poems, some people think that Mulan's poems only describe a filial daughter who joined the army instead of her father and have no significance of the times. Mulan is only the protagonist in the story, not a hero; Mulan is just a girl who loves her children deeply and lacks the quality of working people. Some people think that Mulan poetry originated in the Northern Wei Dynasty. According to historical records, during the 90 years from 402 AD to 492 AD, there were 20 battles between the Northern Wei Dynasty and Rouran (that is, crawling). The historical background of Mulan's poems is probably the anti-predatory war against Rouran's invasion in the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the poem, the author not only praises Mulan's patriotic enthusiasm, but also expresses her noble sentiment of not enviing fame and wealth and loving peaceful life by returning to her hometown. Fan Wenlan pointed out in the revised General History of China: "Mulan described in the poem truly shows the heroism and noble morality of China women." "There was a poem of Wood and Stone in the Northern Wei Dynasty, which was enough to overwhelm all the noble poets in the Northern and Southern Dynasties."
Folklore is mixed with history. In Dufuchuan, Yan 'an City, Orchard Mountain, which faces Wanhua across the river, was originally named Huajialing. It is said that this is Mulan's tomb.

There is a stone tablet on the hillside, about 1.5m high, 1m wide and 0. 1m thick, which reads "Tomb of Mulan".
