National Mourning is the work of Qu Yuan, a great patriotic poet in the Warring States Period, and the tenth lyric poem in Nine Songs. It narrates and describes the heroic scenes of Chu state fighting to the death to defend the motherland and the enemy, depicts the heroic image of bravely killing the enemy and fighting bloody battles, and praises their patriotic spirit of being brave and unyielding and dying for the country.
At the beginning of the poem, Wu Gexi was taken away by a rhinoceros, and the car was wrong. Covering the sun, the enemy is like a cloud, the arrow is on the string, and the soldiers are arguing. It vividly depicts the battle scenes of enemy and enemy chariots, swords and shadows, banners covering the sky, arrows and rain, and draws a magnificent and extremely fierce war picture, which makes people feel as if they were there.
At the same time, it also depicts the heroic spirit of Chu soldiers holding Wu Ge and wearing rhinoceros armour. You see, although the enemy is as dense as a cloud and swarms in, the situation is not good for him; But they all bravely rushed to kill the enemy, showing how fearless heroism! However, the war situation suddenly changed dramatically.
The poem goes on to describe the enemy's killing, "Yu Ling array Xi Yu Sa line"; And we gradually outnumbered, "left sword Xi Zhi right blade injury"! At this critical juncture, the soldiers not only did not flinch, but made up their minds: cross the rubicon and die for the country. They blocked two rounds with four horses, helped jade and beat drums, and launched a final decisive battle with the enemy.
