The vast desert is covered with frost and snow in the moonlight, and a crescent moon like a silver hook (weapon) hangs over Yanshan Mountain. When can I ride on the autumn battlefield with gold ornaments?
Creation background
Li He's twenty-three poems about horses are all about horses, and they outline the image of horses in a short space. For example, "The Second" is about a snowy day in December. The horse's mouth is hard and soft, and the title of Tribulus is put forward first, which shows the horse's suffering spirit. "Third", it is written that his black cone horse missed the hero after Xiang Yu committed suicide:
"Now that the king has solved the sword, where can he chase the hero?" "Fourth," Maxima can still maintain its beautiful quality under very bad conditions: "Knocking on the bone brings its own copper sound",
Twenty-three ridiculed the feudal rulers for abandoning good horses and leaving only some useless "meat horses." In fact, these horse poems are all works of expressing one's heart. They express their feelings of lack of talent by chanting Malay, or satirize the feudal ruling class for not cherishing talents, or express their feelings of hoping to meet wise masters.
