Brief analysis:
The first two sentences were written in the side newspaper and aroused the enthusiasm of the people with lofty ideals. Patriotic fervor. Poetry is one of the basic genres of literature. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More... The poet did not directly explain the emergency of the military situation, but said that "the beacon fire shines on Xijing", and expressed the emergency of the military situation through the visual scene of "beacon fire". The word "zhao" exaggerates the tense atmosphere. "I feel uneasy" was caused by the war. Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. He does not want to waste his youth between pens and inkstones. The word "自" expresses the scholar's heartfelt patriotic passion and describes the character's spiritual state. The first two sentences explain the background of the entire incident.
The third sentence, "Yazhang resigned from Fengque", describes the scene of the army resigning from Beijing. Here, poetry is one of the basic genres of literature. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More.. The poet uses the words "Yazhang" and "Fengque", which appear elegant and steady. It not only shows that the soldiers on the expedition have a lofty mission, but also shows the grandness and solemnity of the scene.
The fourth sentence "Iron cavalry circles the Dragon City", it is obvious that the Tang army has reached the front line quickly and surrounded the enemy castle. The "Iron Cavalry" and "Dragon City" face each other, exaggerating the war atmosphere of fighting between dragons and tigers. The word "circle" vividly describes the Tang army's military posture of surrounding the enemy.
Start writing about battle in five or six sentences. Poetry is one of the basic genres of literature. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More... The poet did not write from the front, but used scenery description to highlight it. "The snow darkens the flag painting, and the wind adds to the sound of drums." The first sentence is based on human vision: the heavy snow covers the sky and the sun, making the colorful paintings on the military flag look eclipsed; the second sentence is based on human hearing: strong wind Howling, intertwined with the majestic marching drums. The two poems are full of sound and color, and each is wonderful in its own way. The poet has a unique expression, using the "flag" and "drum" that symbolize the army to show the strong and fearless spirit of the soldiers fighting the enemy in the snow and the tragic and fierce scenes of fighting the enemy bravely inspired by the sound of the war drum.
The last two sentences of the poem: "It is better to be a centurion than a scholar." This directly expresses the ambition and pride of a scholar in the army to protect the border and defend the country. The arduous and fierce battles only increased his love for this extraordinary life. He would rather gallop on the battlefield and fight to defend the frontier than be a scholar in a study.

Comments:
"The Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty" (Wang Bo, Yang Jiong, Lu Zhaolin, Luo Binwang) The poems about joining the army and going out to the frontier express the ambition and pride of intellectuals who made contributions to the frontier. They are generous and majestic and touching. Poetry about the frontier fortress in the prosperous Tang Dynasty is one of the basic literary genres. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More..The high degree of prosperity and maturity of poetry has a certain influence. Yang Jiong's Military Journey is one of his masterpieces. This poem borrows the old Yuefu title "Joining the Army" to describe the whole process of a scholar joining the army at the frontier and participating in the battle. In just forty words, it not only reveals the psychological activities of the characters, but also exaggerates the atmosphere of the environment. The writing is extremely powerful.
This short poem is one of the basic genres of literature. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More..The poem describes the whole process of a scholar joining the army and going out to fight. Being able to condense such rich content into a limited space shows the poet's artistic skill. First of all, the poet grasped the most representative fragments of the whole process and made a vivid description. As for how the scholar joined the army, how he said goodbye to his parents and wife, and what the march was like along the way... A summary of the poet Secondly, the poem adopts a jumping structure, jumping from one typical scene to another, developing and moving forward in leaps and bounds.
For example, the third sentence has just written "Resigning to Beijing", and the fourth sentence has already surrounded the enemy, and then shows the scene of fierce battle. However, this kind of jump is very natural, and each span leaves a lot of room for imagination. At the same time, this jumping structure gives the poem a lively rhythm, like the rushing water on the cliff, giving people a straight-forward and indomitable momentum, which effectively highlights the strong patriotic passion of the scholar and the heroic spirit of the Tang army generals. face.
The Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty were very dissatisfied with the fact that delicate and elegant poetry was one of the basic literary genres at that time. "Preface to the Poetry": "A poet has his ambitions in his heart, and his words are poems." The difference between poems and songs is that poetry is mainly about reciting, and songs is mainly about singing. The so-called poetry must be recited. Words and songs should be chanted with their voices. Most of the poems are written out of emotion. More.. Poetic style, they have made fruitful developments and innovations in the content and form of poetry. The style of Yang Jiong's poem is not only the result of the artist's unique and distinctive expression of aesthetic objects, but also the result of art appreciators. The result of correct appreciation, understanding and taste of artworks. More..The style is very vigorous and impassioned. Especially a poem like this, which describes the killing of the golden drum, is written in the form of rhythmic poetry with strict rules, which is not simple. Rhymed poetry generally only requires the two middle couplets to be in opposition. In this poem, except for the first couplet, all three couplets are correct. Not only are there pairs between sentences, but they are also pairs within the same sentence, such as "Yazhang" vs. "Fengque", and "Tiaqi" vs. "Dragon City". Neat antithesis makes the poem more rhythmic and powerful, which is very valuable in the poetry world of the early Tang Dynasty.
