The poems about the customs outside the Great Wall in the northwest include:
Fan Zhongyan's "Proud of the Fisherman" The scenery is strange when autumn comes under the Great Wall. The geese in Hengyang leave without paying attention, and the sounds are heard from all sides.
Li Qi's "Ancient Army March" There are wild clouds and no city walls for thousands of miles, and rain and snow cover the desert one after another.
Wang Changling's "Out of the Game" The bright moon of the Qin Dynasty and the Pass of the Han Dynasty, and the people who marched thousands of miles have not yet returned. But the flying generals of Dragon City are here, and Hu Ma is not taught to cross the Yin Mountain.
Wang Changling's "Third of Seven Poems on Marching into the Army" Yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned until it is broken.
Wang Wei's "Envoy to the Fortress" Xiao Guan is waiting to ride, and all are guarding Yan Ran.
What is poetry beyond the Great Wall: poetry based on the life of military and civilians and natural scenery in border areas. It is generally believed that frontier poetry initially developed in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties, began to flourish in the Sui Dynasty, and entered the golden age of development in the Tang Dynasty. According to statistics, there are less than 200 frontier fortress poems from before the Tang Dynasty, but there are more than 2,000 frontier fortress poems collected in "The Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty".
"The Proud Fisherman"
Poetry: The scenery is strange when autumn comes in the fortress. The geese in Hengyang leave without paying attention, and the horns are heard from all sides. Thousands of miles away, the long smoke sets and the sun sets, solitary city closed. A cup of turbid wine can lead to a home thousands of miles away, but Yan Ran has no plan to return home. The Qiang pipes are covered with frost, people can't sleep, and the general's hair is white and his husband is in tears. ?
Explanation: Autumn is here, and the scenery of the northwest frontier is different from that of the south of the Yangtze River. The wild geese flew back to Hengyang again, with no intention of stopping at all. At dusk, the military horn blew, and the surrounding voices also rose up. There are mountains and mountains, the dusk is heavy, the sun is setting on the mountains, and the lonely city gate is tightly closed. Drinking a glass of turbid wine, I can't help but think of my hometown thousands of miles away. I failed to defeat the enemy like Dou Xian did, and I couldn't make plans to return early. The melodious Qiang flute sounded, the weather was cold, and the ground was covered with frost and snow. It was late at night, and the soldiers could not sleep peacefully: the general's beard and hair turned white because of the military affairs; the soldiers also shed sad tears after guarding the border for a long time.
2. "Ancient Military March"
Poetry: During the day, I climbed the mountain to watch the beacon fire, and at dusk, I drank my horse by the river. Pedestrians are fighting in the wind and the sand is dark, and the princess Pipa is full of resentments. There are no city walls in the wild clouds, and rain and snow cover the desert one after another. Hu Yan flew away every night crying, Hu Er shed tears. If you hear that the jade gate is still covered, you should throw your life away. The bones of battles are buried in the wilderness every year, and it is rare to see Pu Tao entering the Han family.
Interpretation:
Climb the mountain to observe the beacon tower during the day, and lead your horse to drink water near the Jiao River at dusk. The sound of fighting came from the dim wind and sand, just like the princess Pipa of the Han Dynasty, full of resentment. The vast desert is filled with clouds and mist, and no city can be seen for thousands of miles. Rain and snow cover the boundless desert. The whining Hu Yan flew through the sky every night, and all the Hu soldiers shed tears. It was heard that Yumen Pass had blocked the way back, and the soldiers had no choice but to follow the general and run desperately. The bones of those killed in battle every year were buried in the wilderness, and all they got in exchange were grapes from the Western Regions sent to the Han family.
3. "The Envoy to the Fortress"
Poetry: The bicycle wants to ask about the side, but it belongs to the country and has passed away. Zheng Peng left Hansai, returned to Yan and entered Hutian. The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting over the long river. When Xiao Guan is waiting to ride, he will always protect Yan Ran.
Interpretation:
I wanted to go to the border by bicycle to express condolences, but the vassal country I was passing through had already passed Juyan. Thousands of miles of flying pods have also floated out of Hansai, and the wild geese returning to the north are soaring in the sky. The solitary smoke rises straight up in the vast desert, and the sun sets perfectly over the endless Yellow River. Go to Xiaoguan and meet the scouting knight, who tells me that the Protector is already in Yanran.
