Expressed the poet's patriotic enthusiasm, but also full of hard-won sadness?
On the one hand, he yearned for Wan Li's heroic ideal of joining the army and serving the country, on the other hand, he felt sad and angry that his ambition was hard to be rewarded and he had no choice but to volunteer. The two encourage each other: the sadder he is, the more he sticks to his ideals; The more persistent he is about his ideal, the stronger his grief and indignation will become. This makes his poems both passionate and sad. This feeling of grief and loyalty has been stirring in his mind, making him sleepless at night, unable to eat, and often dreaming.

Lu You's The Storm of November 4th
2. Original text:
I lay sprawled in my lonely country, not feeling sad about my situation, but thinking about defending the frontier of the country.
The night will be over, I lie in bed listening to the sound of wind and rain, in a daze in my dream, riding an armored horse across the frozen river to the northern battlefield.
3. Translation:
Lying flat in the lonely and desolate country, I didn't feel sorry for my situation.
Still thinking about defending the country.
It's late at night, lying in bed and hearing the sound of wind and rain,
I dreamt in a daze that I rode an armored horse across the frozen Yellow River and went to the front.
I am sick in bed dragging my aging body, but I don't feel sad about it.
Is the national border okay? I miss it day and night.
In the middle of the night, I lay in bed, listening to the wind and rain whistling outside the window.
Maybe in my dream, I will go back to the bloody battlefield where war horses scream.
