Excerpts are as follows:
Look, how fast the Benma River runs to Xue Hai! And sand, from the desert, yellow flies to heaven.
On the night of the ninth month, there was a cold wind blowing in the wheel tower and the valley, and the valley was full of broken boulders like pecking rice, which went down and forward with the wind.
The translation is as follows:
Haven't you seen it? The vast Zoumachuan is near the edge of Xue Hai, and the endless yellow sand connects the sky.
In September, the wind roared on the wheel platform all night. The gravel in Zoumachuan was as big as a bucket, and the wind blew the bucket full of stones.

Describe the natural environment of exploration around the word "wind". The expedition will go through Xue Hai and go deep into the Gobi Desert. "And the sand, coming from the desert, is thriving", which is a typical and unique sandstorm scene. The wind is raging, the yellow sand is flying, the sky is covered, and it is a blur. The first three sentences do not have the word "wind", but they capture the "color" of the wind and vividly write the violence of the wind.
The whole poem is heroic and passionate. Because the poet has personal experience of frontier life, this poem can be "strange and reasonable", "strange and true" and true and moving.
