3. Poetry: This is an ancient poem that satirizes the present and expresses grief and indignation. The first two sentences of the poem are surprising and straightforward, suggesting that people "live like outstanding people", make contributions to the country and serve the court; "Death" should also be a "ghost hero" to be a hero with indomitable spirit.
Taking Xiang Yu as an example, this poem expresses the poet's praise and yearning for heroism. Xiang Yu was a self-reliant overlord of Western Chu at the end of Qin Dynasty. In the process of competing with Liu Bang for the world, even if he failed, he would rather commit suicide than flee to Jiangdong. This unyielding spirit of preferring death deeply touched the poet.
