Han Dynasty: Cao Cao
On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea.
The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea.
Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging.
The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean.
Journey to the sun and the moon, if you go out.
Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise.
I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.

Go east, climb Jieshi Mountain and enjoy the boundless sea. How vast the sea is, and the mountain island stands high on the seaside. Trees are lush with herbs, and the autumn wind makes a sad sound, and the sea is rough. The movement of the sun and the moon seems to emanate from this vast ocean.
The Milky Way galaxy is full of stars, as if they were born from this vast ocean. I am very happy, so I use this poem to express my inner ambition.
Background of extended data creation
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wu Huan, who lived in western Liaoning, became strong. They attacked the city from the south, which became a serious border problem in Hebei. In the tenth year of Jian 'an (205), Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao's ruling foundation in Hebei, and Yuan Shao vomited blood and died. His sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, fled to Wuhuan and colluded with Wuhuan nobles many times.
At that time, Cao Cao was in a disadvantageous position between the north and the south: Liu Biao and Liu Bei occupied Jingxiang in the south, and yuan brothers and Wuhuan in the north. In order to get rid of the passive situation, Cao Cao adopted the advice of Guo Jia, a counselor, and led his army northward in the summer of the twelfth year of Jian 'an, ending in May and July. In autumn, there was a flood, and the road by the sea was impassable. Later, he accepted Tian Chou's suggestion and changed his course flatly. After Xu Wushan, he went out of Lulongsai and pointed to Liucheng, winning the first world war. In September, he returned to Li smoothly, passing through Jieshi.
As for Cao Cao's coming to Jieshi from the east, it was thought that it was when he was going to northern expedition to Wuhuan. In fact, this view does not conform to historical facts and is not credible. We looked up the records in the History of the Three Kingdoms, the Ji of Emperor Wudi and the Biography of Tian Chou. Cao Cao climbed Jieshi on his way home from the Northern Expedition to Wuhuan. Because he is in a flood, the road near the sea is impassable, so he has to take the path from Xuwushan to western Liaoning.
Looking at the sea gives the poet deep feelings, through which we can see the poet's own soul. Cao Cao climbed Jieshi Mountain on his way back to Wuhuan Northern Expedition. As a commander-in-chief, Cao Cao climbed the Jieshi, and Qin Huang and Wu Han also climbed the Jieshi, feeling as uneasy as the sea.
The poet Cao Cao climbed Jieshi Mountain and saw the sea. There are islands in the sea and mountains on the island. The towering mountains show the vastness of the sea. When the autumn wind blows, the waves in the sea are surging. This is the real scene in front of us, which is shocking enough.
However, the poet did not stop there. He seems to see the sun, moon and stars rising and setting on the sea. Although this is a poet's imagination, it truly shows Cao Cao's broader political mind and tolerance as a poet than the sea.
