Sichuan, south of Jianmenguan, suddenly heard the news of recovering northern Hebei. I was very surprised when I first heard the news, and my clothes were wet with tears.
Looking back at my wife and children, I don't know where my usual worries have gone. I rolled up my collection of poems at random, and I was almost crazy with joy.
During the day, I will sing loudly and indulge myself; The beautiful spring scenery just accompanied me back to my hometown.
We'll set off at once, take a boat from the dam, cross the Wuxia, go downstream to Xiangyang, Hubei, and then go north from Xiangyang to Luoyang.

Make an appreciative comment
Du Fu is the greatest realistic poet in the history of China, and his poems are recognized as "the history of poetry". The Imperial Army Recovered the Banks of the Yellow River is one of his representative works.
If The History of Poetry, composed of more than 1000 Du Fu's poems, is a symphony of "depression and frustration", then The Imperial Army Recovers the Banks of the Yellow River (hereinafter referred to as "Wen Shi") is an exquisite allegro, or a comfortable and smooth cadenza. "Eight words of poetry, its disease flies, the topic is only one sentence, I am writing it. The first quick poem in life! " The term "first poem" seems to be biased, but it is very appropriate to use a word "fast" to summarize the artistic characteristics of literary poetry.
First of all, the tone is cheerful. As far as timbre itself is concerned, whether it is cheerful or sad, others, in this concept, are not the criteria for evaluating the artistic level. What we are talking about is that, first, as mentioned above, the poem Wen has changed the poet's usual style, and the cheerful feature is particularly obvious in contrast; In particular, it should be emphasized that sorrow is sorrow and joy is joy, that is, "emotion is the life of poetry" and "any writer would rather be a wild horse than a tired donkey" (Yuan Mei: Poetry in the Garden). Du Fu experienced the whole process of An Shi Rebellion, and he tasted all kinds of pains brought by the war. Originally, my home was in Tokyo, but I was displaced from place to place: by the Jinjiang River, the hut was blown by the autumn wind, and Zizhou was "poor in food and making friends" (Du Fu: guest night). This great poet who cares about the country and the people is always looking forward to "making the universe look brand-new" (Du Fu: "Five Thoughts? A "). When I finally "stand in this distant western news!" The north has been taken back! " Through my eyes, like a dam opening, like a mountain waterfall, the poet's long-standing feelings have arisen-looking back and looking forward to the future, the country will end the war, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and the poet himself will return to his hometown. What could be luckier than this? All this determines the cheerful tone of a song "Both banks of the Yellow River are recaptured by the imperial army". Poetry has great artistic charm because it is the poet's true feelings.
Secondly, the writing is fluent. It is precisely because the poet moved his true feelings that his thoughts welled up, from the initial news to the planning of his return home in one go. But only emotional factors are not enough, and carefree, with the help of the poet's extremely superb artistic skills, can be handy and become a wonderful sentence. The poet carefully selected a series of verbs, prepositions and adverbs (including phrases) such as "sudden biography", "first smell", "Dan Kan", "ramble", "namely", "obedience", "wear", "convenience", "Xia" and "Xiang" to make the whole poem fluent and vivid. The word "wear" alone is amazing-it not only highlights the speed of sailing in the canyon in imagination, but also vividly writes the poet's arrow-like homecoming. If we use other verbs, I'm afraid we can't achieve the existing artistic effect. Du Fu's poems are already the best. Look at the triple antithesis, each couplet is excellent. There is no need to say "sing loudly and drink deeply" in the neck couplet, and promise "forget me"; In that green spring day, I went home, followed by the end of the specific planning of the return route-the result of connecting the preceding with the following, seamlessly bridging the gap between the upper and lower sentences, which is really amazing. In the tail couplet, four place names are opposite, and the flowing water pair appears in the order of land, water and space, which is even more interesting.
Moreover, the colors are bright. Literature reflects social life with images. However, literature is different from plastic arts, performing arts and comprehensive arts, and literary images are shaped by language. Because of this, the famous writer of the former Soviet Union? Tolstoy once pointed out that literature has "duality", that is, "the author and the reader" and "both sides participate in the creation", as Liu Xie said: "The husband who writes essays is emotional and resigns, while the reader enters the artistic conception and seeks the source along the slope, although seclusion will be obvious." ("Wen Xin Diao Long? Confidante? Although there is no scenery in the stone story, the poet left a lot of imagination for readers. After reading this poem, after "re-creation", vivid pictures will clearly appear in his mind. If you write a storyboard, poems can be divided into: flying good news, shedding towels with tears, going home happily, singing and drinking loudly, starting in spring, and returning the sword to Romania. The latter can be divided infinitely. These paintings are brightly colored and give people beautiful artistic enjoyment.
It can really be said: a fast poem is passed down through the ages, and the legacy of the poet inspires future generations.
