There is not a word about snow in this poem, but about five scenes in which Ding Lishi fights with the heavenly generals. However, as can be seen from the couplets, the poet actually compares the snow to the broken nail and the scales of Yulong when the heavenly soldiers are defeated.
Translation of the whole poem Snow;
Five Ding Lishi held a sword and fought a decisive battle with the enemy in Yun Ni. The momentum seems to have directly captured the imperial city in Tianhe. After the battle with Yulong and 3 million heavenly generals, the defeated left scales and nails flying all over the sky.
Wuding: According to legend, there were five Hercules in Shu at that time, and they were very powerful, so they were called Wuding Lux.
Yun Ni: Clouds and rainbows. "Mencius Hui Liang Wang Xia": "The people look forward to it, if they are looking forward to Yun Ni." Zhao Qi's Note: "Neon, rainbow and rain are rainbows, so I think about it during the drought."

There are no birds flying over those mountains, and there are no traces of people in those paths.
A boat on the river, a fisherman wearing his webworm moth; Fishing alone is not afraid of snow and ice.
Translation:
On all the mountains, birds are gone, and on all the roads, there are no traces of people. On a lonely boat on the river, an old man in a bamboo hat was fishing alone on the cold river covered with heavy snow.
