"Guan Cang Hai" should be "Guan Cang Hai", which is a four-character poem written by Cao Cao, a poet in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. The ancient poem and its meaning are as follows:
Original text:
To the east is the Jieshi to view the sea.
Where is the water? The mountains and islands are standing tall.
There are many trees and lush grass.
The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rising.
The journey of the sun and the moon, if it comes out of it.
The stars are as brilliant as if they came from within.
Fortunately, I sing to express my ambition.
Translation: Go eastward and climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea. The sea is so wide and mighty, and the mountain islands stand high on the seashore. There are many trees and grasses, which are very luxuriant. The autumn wind blows the trees and makes a sad sound, and huge waves surge in the sea.
The movements of the sun and moon seem to emanate from this vast ocean. The stars of the Milky Way are brilliant, as if they were produced from this vast ocean. I was very happy and used this poem to express my inner ambition.
From the perspective of the style of the poem, this is an ancient poem; from the perspective of expression, this is a four-character poem describing a scene. The two sentences "Landing Jieshi in the east to view the sea" point out the location of "viewing the sea": the poet climbed to the top of Jieshi, facing the sea from a high position, with a broad view and a panoramic view of the magnificent sea.

Creative background
Wuhuan was a serious problem in the northeast at that time. In the eleventh year of Jian'an (206 years), Wuhuan captured Youzhou. More than 100,000 Han households were captured. In the same year, Yuan Shao's sons Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi colluded with Tadun, the leader of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, and repeatedly harassed the border. As a result, Cao Cao had to decide to go north to conquer Wuhuan in the 12th year of Jian'an (207). Later, under the guidance of Tian Chou, Xiao used strategies.
In a battle around August of this year, Cao Cao finally achieved a decisive victory. This victory consolidated Cao Cao's rear and laid the foundation for his move south the following year in order to realize his ambition to unify China. And "Guan Cang Hai" was written when he passed through Jieshi Mountain after returning from the northern expedition to Wuhuan after victory.
"Cao Cao's "Guan Cang Hai" accurately and vividly depicts the image of the ocean, which is simple but full, rich but not trivial, just like a thick charcoal drawing. What is especially valuable is that this song The poem not only reflects the image of the ocean, but also gives it character. Every sentence expresses the sea and the poet himself. Instead of making similar imitations, we strive to express the deep, turbulent character of the ocean through images.
"Viewing the Sea" expresses emotion through scenery, combining the sea scenery in front of me and my own ambitions. The climax of "Viewing the Sea" is placed at the end of the poem. Its emotions are very unrestrained, but its thoughts are very implicit. , so it is more inspiring, more stimulating to our imagination, and more thought-provoking.
