Xiang Yu
Rise from the mountain and be angry with the world,
Bad times never die.
I can't help it if I don't die,
I'm afraid I'm afraid I can't do anything!
This is a desperate word issued by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, on the eve of a deadly war. This poem is full of unparalleled heroism and affection; It not only shows rare self-confidence, but also sighs that it is insignificant. It is a miracle that just four sentences show such rich content and complicated feelings.
At the end of Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu and his uncle Xiang Liang sent troops to attack the State of Qin. Because of his brilliant military exploits, unparalleled courage and outstanding talent, he actually became a leader against Qin Qunxiong and played an important role in overthrowing the rule of Qin Dynasty. However, after the death of Qin, Liu Bang, the leader of another anti-Qin force as an ally of Xiang Yu, launched a cruel war with Xiang Yu in order to rule the whole country. He ended in Xiang Yu's failure. When writing this poem, Xiang Yu was surrounded by Gaixia (now the north bank of Nantuo River in Lingbi County, Anhui Province), and all the food was saved. He knew that failure was a foregone conclusion. After writing a poem, he led the troops to break through. Although he killed many enemy troops, he finally committed suicide in Wujiang (now northeast of Anhui county) because of his thin strength. The first sentence of this poem shows the reader an unparalleled heroic image. In ancient China, "Qi" not only came from human innate talent, but also depended on acquired cultivation. People's morality, ability, demeanor and so on all depend on "qi". The so-called "furious" means that he has surpassed anyone in these aspects. Although this is a kind of? Its general description, but the word "Lashan" gives readers a concrete and vivid feeling, so in this sentence, he vividly shows his omnipotent spirit through the combination of reality and reality.
However, the second sentence, the third sentence, the earth hero suddenly became? It's pale and powerless. Because of the bad weather, Gui, the famous horse he rode, could not move forward, which made him fall into the desperate situation of failure and could not extricate himself, so he had to be called "helpless". It is worth noting here: Why does raccoon's "immortality" have such serious consequences? I'm afraid I can only answer this question like this: the most important reason for his remarkable achievements is this famous horse; With its cooperation, he can be invincible. In other words, he almost conquered the world by himself, so his main comrade-in-arms is Zhu An. As for the others, they played little role in his career, and their harmony did not play much role in his success or failure. It was enough for him to pay attention to Zhuan. This means that his strength makes it meaningless for anyone to help him, and no one deserves to be his main comrade-in-arms. What a proud man! It can be said that I am the only one in the world! But, no matter how brave and invincible, chinese odyssey. Once the weather is unfavorable, he has no choice but to perish. In front of the mysterious "heaven", how small people are; Even the greatest hero in the world can't stand the slight blow of "Heaven"
Xiang Yu knew that his own demise was inevitable and his career would vanish, but he didn't miss, regret or even sigh. The only thing he worries about is the future of a beautiful woman, who he loves and often travels with him in the East and the West. There is no doubt that after his death, Yu's fate will be very tragic. So, the sharp and unbearable pain gnawed at his heart deeply, and he sang the last sentence of this song with infinite sadness: "What if you are afraid of danger?" Translated into vernacular, it means: "Yu, Yu, what shall I do with you?" How deep and unforgettable love is contained in this short sentence!
Yes, compared with the eternal nature, individual people are indeed extremely fragile. Even heroes are just like a big wave in endless history, which is fleeting and regrettable. But love is eternal. It has always been one of the powerful spiritual pillars for human beings to make themselves full of vitality and purity. Even a demon who kills without blinking an eye will inevitably crawl in front of love, which makes people rejoice and admire. Although the length of Gaixia Song is not long, it profoundly shows these two aspects of life. For thousands of years, it has touched the hearts of countless readers; This is probably its charm!
The poem "Gaixia Song" is an appreciation of famous ancient poems, full of feathers and full of vitality. When times are bad, you will never die. What can I do without dying? I'm afraid I can't do it! ◇ Note ① Cover: It is better to cover it upside down. This sentence is: the strength is big enough to pull out mountains, and the boldness of vision is big enough to cover the world. 2 Unfavorable Times: Times are unfavorable to oneself. Zhu: A horse with blue and white fur is a good horse that Xiang Yu often rides. Death: Mercedes. ③ What can I do? what can I do? More than 4: people. If: you. Trouble, trouble, what should I do with you? ◇ Author's Brief Introduction Xiang Yu (232~ 202 BC): Xia Xiang (now Suqian County, Jiangsu Province) was the leader of the peasant uprising at the end of Qin Dynasty. According to Records of Historical Records of Xiang Yu, after the overthrow of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang fought for feudal sovereignty for five years, and finally Xiang Yu was trapped by Liu Bang. Since the night of Xiang Yu, a beautiful woman named Yu (whose surname is "Yu" in Hanshu) accompanied her to drink, so Xiang Yu generously and elegantly made this poetry magazine, which was later called "Gaixia Song". The appreciation of this poem is contained in Historical Records of Xiang Yu and Biography of Han Ji Xiang. Yuefu Poetry Collection is included in Qin Qu Ge Fu with the title of Pushing Mountain Xi. This is a song sung by Xiang Yu Gaixia (now east of Lingbi County, Anhui Province) when he was cornered. According to Records of Historical Records of Xiang Yu, in December of the fifth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (AD 202), Xiang Yu retired, and Liu Bang joined forces from Han Xin, Liu Jia, Zhou Yin, etc., and was heavily surrounded. Xiang Yu serenaded and ate all his food. At night, he heard that the Han army was besieged, thinking that the Han army had occupied all of Chu, and he was very afraid. So accompanied by Yu Ji, he drank in the camp to relieve his worries. During the dinner, Xiang Yu generously lamented and sang this song "Gaixia Song". According to records, Xiang went several times in a row, all of which were agreed. Xiang Yu was full of tears and sobbed everywhere. The scene is very tragic. Gaixia Song is a lyric short song in the style of Chu Ci. In the sentence, the modal particle "Xi" unique to Chu Ci is used to express the tone of regret, resulting in a soothing and melodious rhythm. Together with Liu Bang's Song in the Wind, it is a masterpiece of lyric short chapters of Chu Ci in the early Han Dynasty. One is the generous lament of the hero's end, and the other is the hero's swan song of the founding fathers, which is also deeply affectionate and sung through the ages. In a sigh tone, this poem expresses Xiang Yu's resentment and helplessness that he thinks he is extremely powerful and brave, but he has to fail because of unfavorable times. The poem is full of sighs of "the end of the hero", and the artistic conception is generous and tragic. "Great efforts to pull out the mountains and arouse the deaf" is often used by later generations to describe great boldness of vision and superior strength. Xiang Yu's "ability to carry the tripod, extraordinary talent." When Qin Shihuang toured the meeting, he blurted out: "He can take its place!" In the storm of peasant uprising at the end of Qin Dynasty, he and his uncle Xiang Liang took advantage of the situation and led 8,000 children from Jiangdong to cross the river to the north, sweeping across Qin Jun like a bamboo and becoming a main force to overthrow the Qin Dynasty. He crossed the Rubicon River, marched into Julu, and defeated Qin Jun's main force, which had a great influence on China, and his ministers were in awe. Then he broke Hangu Pass, occupied Xianyang, called himself the overlord of the place of Chu, and ordered the world. In the Chu-Han War, he also showed his talents and defeated Liu Bang repeatedly. The words "make great efforts to rule the country and shake the mountain to the sky" are full of heroism, showing the identity, character and temperament of this hero. Xiang Yu claimed to be an unparalleled hero all his life until Wujiang committed suicide. He also boasted: "I have been eight years old since I joined the army and have participated in more than 70 wars. When I was defeated, I was defeated, which means I was defeated, so I dominated the world. However, this pawn is trapped here, and the death of this pawn is not a crime of war. " It can be seen that "pushing mountains to inspire" is a self-portrayal of Xiang Yu's image and the crowning touch of the lyric hero's character, talent and temperament. The following three sentences, "When times are unfavorable, I won't die", describe the situation of his hero's end, and his pen moves sharply. The hero who was all-powerful and invincible in those days has now fallen into a tight encirclement, and his beloved war horse can't break through it. What should a lucky concubine do? Reciting "Xiang" here is heartfelt, but it comes out casually, but it is witty and meaningful. Before committing suicide in Wujiang, Xiang Yu presented his mount to the director of Wujiang Pavilion, and said to the director, "I rode this horse at the age of five and was invincible. I often travel thousands of miles a day and can't bear to kill it for the public. " The horse given by Xiang Yu is the "item" in Song of the Missing. This Zhuan Xu once accompanied him from the front and fought in the north and south, and was his close partner in life and death. I lament that "I will never die" is to lament that I am on the verge of despair. However, thanks to chanting, poetry is much richer. Yu Ji, Xiang Yu's favorite concubine, accompanied Xiang Yu everywhere, inseparable. Now that the Han army is under siege, Xiang Yu will fall. Even the most favored concubines are desperate and forced to stage the tragedy of farewell my concubine. "When it goes against you, you can't die, but you can't help it! What is it? " Sigh, sigh and lament, and write the realm of a group of heroes. In ancient poetry, horses and beauties are often used as foil for heroes, adding color to their style. Su Shi's poem Niannujiao Chibi Nostalgia praised Zhou Yu, a hero in the Three Kingdoms period. As the saying goes, "In Gong Jin, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was gorgeous. Feather fan nylon scarf, laughing and laughing, is as strong as ashes. " With Xiao Qiao's First Marriage as a foil, Zhou Yu's elegance and elegance are even more obvious. But in this song "Gaixia Song", the steed and the beautiful woman set off the protagonist's ending from the opposite side. Although the usage is different, the effect is the same. In addition, the poem uses rhetorical devices such as overlapping words and sighing to express the feelings of generous and sad songs, which is sincere and incisive and has strong artistic appeal.
