Appreciation and Translation of Two Poems on the Embankment by Wang Changling

Two original songs: the bright moon in Qin dynasty was off in Han dynasty, and the long March people did not return. If Wei Qing, who attacked Longcheng, and Li Guang, the flying general, were alive today, the Huns would not be allowed to go south to spend their horses in Yinshan.

The general just stepped into a BMW with a white jade saddle to fight. After the battle, there was only bleak moonlight on the battlefield. The drums on the wall are still echoing in the wilderness, and the blood on the sword in the sword box is still not dry.

The translation and annotation of the two frontier poems are still the bright moon and frontier pass in Qin and Han Dynasties, but Wan Li, a conscript who defended the frontier against the enemy, has not returned them. If Wei Qing, who attacked Liuzhou, and Li Guang, the flying general, were still alive, the Huns would never be allowed to go south to herd horses and spend the Yinshan Mountain.

The general just stepped on a BMW with a white jade saddle. After the battle, there was only a bleak moonlight on the battlefield. The drums on the head of the city are still echoing in the wilderness, and the blood on the treasure knife in the saber box is still wet.

Note 1. But manufacturing: as long as. 2. Dragon City Flying General Army: According to the Biography of Han Weiqing and Huo Qubing, in the sixth year of Yuanguang (129 BC), Wei Qing was a general, riding a chariot, went out of the valley to Cage City and beheaded hundreds of people. Yan Shigu noticed that "cage" and "dragon" are the same. Feilong refers to Wei Qing's surprise attack on Dragon City. Among them, some people think that Flying Dragon City refers to Li Guang, a general of Han Fei, and Dragon City is the Lulong City in the Tang Dynasty (Lulong City is the place where Li Guang trained in the Han Dynasty, located near xifengkou, Hebei Province, and is the seat of Youbeiping County in the Han Dynasty). Throughout Li Guang's life, he spent most of his time fighting the Huns to prevent them from plundering the border. Moreover, every time the Huns attacked the Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, almost all of them sent Li Guangdang as the satrap, so this statement makes sense. 3. Don't teach: don't call, don't let. Teach, let. Huma: refers to the foreign cavalry invading the mainland. 5. Degree: Over. On the long border, the war has never stopped, and the soldiers who went to the frontier to fight have not returned. If General Wei Qing who attacked Liuzhou and General Li Guang who flew in were alive today, they would never let the enemy cross the Yinshan Mountain. 6. Yinshan Mountain: the northern branch of Kunlun Mountain, which starts from the northwest of Hetao and passes through Suiyuan, Chahar and the north of Jehol, is the barrier to the north of China. 7. Hummer: a red horse with a black tail and a black tail, a good horse. Tzu Chi Xin: Just now. 8. Battlefield: refers to the battlefield. 9. shock: ring.

Appreciation of Two Songs of Fortress (1)

This is a frontier fortress that laments the constant war on the border and the lack of a good general in the country.

Poetry begins with writing about scenery. In the first sentence, the words "bright moon in Qin dynasty, amorous feelings in Han dynasty" show a magnificent picture: a bright moon shines on the border. The poet only used a lot of sketches without detailed description, but it just showed the vastness of the frontier and the depression of the scenery, rendering a lonely and desolate atmosphere. What is particularly wonderful is that the poet decorated the moon and customs with the words "Qin and Han Dynasties", which turned this picture of the moon approaching customs into a picture of time, giving Wan Li border a sense of long history. This is a "stroke of genius" produced by the poet's deep thinking about the long-term border war.

In the face of such a scene, people in the frontier feel moved by the scene, and naturally think of countless people who have devoted themselves to the frontier since the Qin and Han Dynasties and have not returned to their deaths. The Man Who Didn't Return from the Long March also points out the remoteness of the frontier fortress from the perspective of space. The "people" here refer not only to the soldiers who died in the battlefield, but also to those who are still holding on and cannot return. "People have not returned" means that the border defense is not consolidated, and the second is sympathy for the foot soldiers. These are two sides of the same question, the former is the cause and the latter is the result. This is a big problem that has not been solved from the Qin Dynasty to the Han Dynasty and even the Tang Dynasty. So in the third and fourth sentences, the poet gives the answer.

"Only make the Dragon City fly in, and don't teach Huma to cross the shady mountain" is a combination of lyricism and discussion, which directly expresses the desire of border guards to consolidate border defense and defend their country, and is full of patriotism and national pride. The article is heroic and powerful. At the same time, these two sentences are ironic, showing the poet's dissatisfaction with the improper use of personnel by the court and the corruption and incompetence of the generals. There is a moral that makes people think endlessly.

Although this poem has only four short lines, its content is complicated through the description of frontier fortress scenery and conscription psychology. Have strong sympathy for the soldiers who have been defending for a long time, and have the desire to end this border defense regardless of the situation; At the same time, he also revealed his dissatisfaction with the court's failure to choose and employ people. At the same time, he paid attention to the overall situation and realized the justice of war. Therefore, his personal interests were subordinated to the needs of national security, and he issued an oath of "not teaching Huma to spend the Yinshan Mountain", which was full of patriotism.

The poet did not describe the frontier fortress scenery in detail, but chose a typical picture of garrison life to reveal the inner world of foot soldiers. Scenery description is only a means to describe the thoughts and feelings of characters. Yue in the Han Dynasty melted into the scenery and soaked the feelings of the characters. The complex content is thrown into the four-line poem, which is profound, implicit and intriguing.

Secondly,

This poem describes the thrilling scene just after the battle. Hardly had the mare been saddled with white jade when the soldiers got on the horse. It was late at the end of the battle, and only the cold moonlight was left on the battlefield. The drums on the head of the city are still echoing in the wilderness, and the blood of the steel knife in the scabbard is not dry. With a few strokes, the poet vividly described the heroism of the soldiers and the demeanor of the winners.

Huaxiang steed is the best horse, which should be matched with the most beautiful white jade saddle bridge. You can imagine the prestige of this rider. This brave knight went to war with a "golden knife" (that is, Jin Cuodao). The knight, covered with moonlight and cold wind, returned home after a fierce battle. However, his whole spirit is still immersed in the dusty battlefield, and the drumming drums are still ringing in his ears. This chivalrous, brave and confident knight is not only the image of General Tang Jun in the poet's mind, but also the spiritual portrayal of the poet's determination to resist the enemy and his constant desire to fight for the battlefield. "ChengTou iron drum of shock, golden knife blood box. This is really a magnificent cry from a staunch patriot, and it also clearly reflects the poet's ardent hope.

This poem expresses the traditional martial spirit characterized by self-confidence, enterprising and pioneering, and its style is vigorous and fresh. The poet's description of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War is not literal, but an atmosphere. A fragment of battle life is selected in the poem, and a series of battle life images are strung together with war images such as "galloping horse", "battlefield", "iron bucket" and "golden knife", in which the fierceness of the battle and the coldness of the battlefield are included. At the beginning of the poem, the word "new leap" vividly expresses the fighting enthusiasm of the soldiers, while at the end of the poem, it describes the hearts of the soldiers with a seemingly bloody scene of "blood is still wet"-the blood has not cooled because of the end of the battle. This fierce and cold atmosphere vividly shows the brave and heroic spirit of the soldiers and their warm and inspiring style.

In this poem, the author describes the scene just after the battle, depicts the image of a fearless general, and enthusiastically praises the brave spirit of the soldiers who have contributed to the country's killing of the enemy.

The poet's description of victory is not literal, but an atmosphere. Wrote the heroic, passionate and inspiring style of the soldiers.

The background of the two songs "Chusai" was written by Wang Changling when he was in the Western Regions in his early years, and "Chusai" is an old topic in Yuefu. Wang Changling lived in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. During this period, Tang won many foreign wars, and the confidence of the whole nation was extremely strong. In the works of frontier fortress poets, an impassioned upward spirit and strong confidence in defeating the enemy can be reflected. At the same time, frequent border wars also make people feel overwhelmed and long for peace, and "Out of the fortress" reflects people's desire for peace.

The second poem in the group, the whole Tang poem, was also included in Li Bai's poems and made into Join the Army or March. However, there is no army in the comments on the Complete Works of Li Bai. There are always different opinions about the real author of this poem.

Poetry: Two Poems on the Dyke Author: Wang Changling's poems in Tang Dynasty are divided into frontier fortress, scenery description, narration, war, lyricism and poetry creation.
