The Tatar chiefs are fleeing from the darkness.
We chased them, with light horses,
Our bows and swords are covered with snow.

On a quiet night, geese fly high,
Khan slipped away in the dark.
Was about to lead the light cavalry to catch up,
The snow fell all over me.
[Brief analysis]
This is the third poem in Lulun's "Xia Sai Qu" series. Lu Lun used to be a marshal judge of the shogunate, and he had a good understanding of the life of soldiers. Poetry describing this life is more substantial and powerful in style. This poem is about the heroic feat of the general preparing to lead his troops in pursuit of the enemy on a snowy night.
The first two sentences are about the enemy fleeing. "In the bright moonlight, geese are soaring", and the moon is covered by clouds and dark. Su Yan started up and flew high. "Chief Tatar fled in the dark". On this unusual night with high black wind, the enemy sneaked away. "Khan" originally refers to the supreme ruler of Xiongnu, and here refers to the invaders of Qidan and other nationalities who often invaded the south at that time.
The last two sentences describe the general preparing to chase the enemy, which is unusual. "And we chase it, and the horse is light and heavy." The general found that the enemy had absconded and wanted to lead the light cavalry to pursue it; Just as we were about to leave, there was a heavy snow, and in an instant the bow and knife were covered with snowflakes. The last sentence "and the burden of snow on our bows and swords" is a description of the cold scene, highlighting the hardships of fighting and the brave spirit of soldiers.
This poem blends scenes. The enemy troops fled in the scene of "wild geese flying in the bright moonlight", and the general was prepared to pursue them in the scene of "snow burden on our bow and our sword". The atmosphere of escape and chase is as follows
Be strongly rendered. The whole poem does not describe the process of chasing the enemy in the snow, nor does it directly describe the fierce battle scenes, but it leaves a very rich imagination space for people.
This is the third of the six poems in the "Song of the Plug" group. Although Lu Lun was a poet in the mid-Tang Dynasty, his frontier poems are still full of vigor in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, full of heroism between the lines, and inspiring to read.
There is a sentence or two "high in the dim moonlight, wild geese are soaring, and the Tatar chief is fleeing in the dark" to describe the enemy's rout. "The moon is dark and windy" and there is no light. "Goose flies high", there is no sound. Taking advantage of such a dark and silent night, the enemy quietly escaped. Khan was the supreme ruler of the ancient Huns, and here he refers to the supreme commander of the invaders. Running at night means that they have completely collapsed.
Despite the cover of darkness, the enemy's actions were discovered by our army. Three or four sentences, "Let's pursue it, the horse will carry a heavy load, and the bow and sword will bear the snow", describe the situation that our army is preparing to pursue, and show the mighty spirit of the soldiers. Imagine a cavalry marching out, and suddenly the bow, arrow and knife are covered with heavy snow. What an exciting scene!
Judging from this poem, Lu Lun is very good at capturing images and opportunities. He can not only grasp the typical image, but also show it at the most artistic moment. The poet doesn't write about how the army attacked, nor does he tell you whether he caught up with the enemy. He only described a scene he was going to pursue, which effectively set off the atmosphere and emotions at that time. "And we chase them, the horses that go into battle lightly, and the burden of snow on our bows and swords", this is not a * * * but a moment close to * * *. This moment, like an arrow on the string, will not send, the most attractive force. You may feel dissatisfied because you didn't give the result. But only in this way can it be more enlightening and arouse readers' association and imagination. This is called incoherent, and its meaning is endless. It's not without a tail when a dragon sees its head. The tail is even more interesting and charming if it looms in the clouds.

Question 3: Tang Hulun's poems and songs in Xia Sai Qu express the author's feelings. Lu Lun's "Xia Sai Qu" is a set of six songs, which are about giving orders, shooting at the enemy, celebrating victory and so on. If you're asking the second question, write about the general hunting at night. Seeing trouble in the forest, I thought it was a tiger, so I bent my bow and shot it fiercely. At dawn, the arrow actually hit a stone. According to the historical records. Biography of General Lee. According to records, Li Guang was a famous ape-man in Han Dynasty, who was good at shooting. When he was the magistrate of Youbeiping, he had such a dramatic experience: "When he went hunting widely, he saw a stone in the grass and killed it as a tiger. The stone in the middle missed, but he took it as a stone. Because he shot again and failed to return to the stone. "
The first sentence said that the place where the general hunted at night was deep in a dark forest; At that time, it was getting late, and a gust of wind blew and the vegetation was covered by it. This not only shows the specific time and place, but also creates an atmosphere. Right Beiping used to be a tiger-rich area, and the dense forest in the mountains was the hiding place of the tiger, the king of beasts, and tigers often came out at dusk. The word "the forest is dark, the wind blows" plus the word "Jing" not only makes people naturally associate with the tiger, but also depicts it vividly. Pave the way for the "bow pulling" behind. The second sentence is to continue to write "shoot" instead of "shoot", not only because the poem rhymes, but also because "painting" is a preparatory action for "sending". This writing can inspire readers to imagine and understand how calm and calm the general is in danger. After a "surprise", the general rode at once.
The last two sentences wrote down the miracle of "drinking poison to quench thirst", and the time was postponed until the next morning ("Ping Ming"). When the general was looking for prey, he found that the man who was shot by an arrow was not a tiger, but a crouching stone, which made people marvel at first and then sigh. It turned out that this arrow with white feathers was installed at the tail of the shaft, but it "pointed deep into the hard rock" and scored three points on the stone. This passage is not only tortuous, but also has time.
Question 4: The third meaning of the ancient poem "Plug" is that geese fly high in the still night.
Khan quietly hurried away in the dark.
Was about to lead the light cavalry to catch up,
The snow fell all over me.
Question 5: What does the second sentence of the ancient poem Xia Sai Qu mean? Lulun's Sedimentology?
In the dark forest, the grass was suddenly blown by the wind, and the wind was rustling. The general thought that the beast was coming and immediately pulled out the arrow.
Dawn went to look for the arrow, which had gone deep into the edge of the stone.
No DD is trapped, it is drilling.
