Don't you see: walking along the snow by the sea,
Sand in the desert, yellow flies to heaven. On the night of the ninth month, there was a cold wind blowing in the wheel tower.
And valleys, full of broken boulders like pecking measures, down, forward, with the wind.
Despite the gray grass, Tatar horses are plump, and on the west side of Jinshan, smoke and dust gather.
General of China's army, start your battle! Wear your armor all night,
Marching in the middle of the night, the sharp wind tip cuts the face like a knife.
Sweat from the snow steamed on horseback, freezing the pattern of five-flowered coins.
Your challenge from the camp, from the ink bottle of ice, has chilled the barbarian leader.
You will no longer need a real fight! We are waiting for the news of victory in Xiguan! !
The poems "Zoumachuan", "Luntai", "Jinshan" and "Automobile Market" are all common place names in the north or the western regions. The code used as a place name here is not a real reference. You don't have to seek truth when reading poetry, you just need to understand poetry. At the beginning of this poem, it vividly depicts the harsh environment in the western regions where clouds are surging and sand is flying. Xiongnu (representing the powerful northern nation) attacked, showing signs of chaos everywhere; The general led his troops to the battlefield to meet the enemy. At night, marching weapons collide with each other. Although the cold wind was like a knife, the snow-covered streaky horse was still sweating and soon became ice. Drafted a campaign (gauntlet) for the enemy in the tent, and the ink in the inkstone was frozen into ice before it was finished. Such a hard-working and brave army will definitely make the enemy dare not fight; Then let's wait for Simon, the automobile engineer, to win! The optimistic and heroic spirit expressed in the poem is the embodiment of the spirit of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. An old song by Li Jie is also famous:
During the day, the beacon tower climbing the mountain observes and gives an alarm, and at night, the horse leads the horse to the riverside.
The dark wind blew bursts of sounds, like the pipa of a princess in the Han Dynasty, full of hidden grievances.
Camp in Wan Li without battlements until the thick sky joins the vast desert in the snow.
The sorrowful Hu Yanyan flew through the air, and HUS soldiers were all in tears.
It is said that Yumenguan has blocked the road, so the soldiers can only follow the general around.
The bones of death are buried in the wilderness every year, and only grapes from the western regions are sent to the Han people.
During the day, the army will climb the mountain to watch the beacon warning, and at dusk, they will go to Jiaohe (in Turpan, Xinjiang, this generation has water, which is not true) to drink horses. Diao Dou is a kind of copper pot, which is used for cooking during the day and working at night. Soldiers carrying Diao Dou trudged through the dark sand. At this time, it must be full of bitterness to think of the pipa music played by the princess who married Wusun Wang from this road in the Han Dynasty. Camping in a deserted place for the night, the heavy snow that pervades the world floats and connects with the desert in the distance. In the autumn night, the cries of geese flying south were mournful, and Hu Bing, one of the warring parties, could not bear this hard life and shed tears. It is said that the imperial court has issued an order not to retreat, so it can only fight to the death with the general (an official who gets off lightly). Yumen is sealed, that is, it is not allowed to retreat into Yumen Pass. Using the allusions in Historical Records Biography of Dawan, Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division, attacked Dawan and was defeated. He retreated to Dunhuang and asked the imperial court to retreat. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "was furious and ordered (the emissary) to block Yumen, saying: Those who dare to enter will be cut!" Nine times out of ten, I died in battle. Every year, countless people leave their bones in a foreign land. The only result was that grapes (Pu Tao) were introduced into the Central Plains from the western regions for the rich to enjoy. Although there is sadness in the poem, the tone is still high and enterprising.
War is cruel. In 7 14 A.D., there was a great war between Tang Jun and Tubo near Lintaolong Castle, and tens of thousands of Tubo people were killed or injured. Wang Changling's "Xia Sai Qu" wrote about this war:
Horses lead horses to drink across the river, the wind is biting, and the autumn wind is like a sword.
The sunset on the vast battlefield has not yet fallen, and I saw Lintao County in the distance in the dark.
The Great Wall once fought a fierce battle, saying that the frontier soldiers were in high spirits.
Since ancient times, there have been sandstorms, bones everywhere and weeds everywhere.
Many years after the war, the battlefield was still bleak and desolate, with long yellow dust and messy wormwood scattered among them and forgotten forever. No matter which side the deceased belongs to, it is a sad tragedy for him and his family.
