Extended information
The theme of this poem is serious. The ferocity of the wolf and the sergeants of the Zhou Dynasty were ready. As a garrison sergeant, the author describes the solemn and majestic military force and the tense and difficult life of ordering generals, dispatching garrison troops, and guarding China under the orders of the emperor.
The author's patriotism is expressed through his hatred of lynx. It is also expressed through the strong contrast between their descriptions of their loyalty to their duties - "Don't forget to start a new home", "Don't forget to start a new place", "How dare you settle down", "How can I not avoid the sun" and their extreme homesickness in their hearts.
The whole poem is set off with touching descriptions of natural scenery: the growth of Wei, the softness of Wei, the strength of Wei, the blooming of Tangdi flowers, the leaning of willows, the falling rain and snow, all of which highlight the soldiers' "sunrise". "Jie" is a life, but my heart is full of longing for home.
What is written here are the true thoughts of the soldiers. The sad mood does not reduce the value of this piece as a patriotic poem, on the contrary. It shows people's innocence and simplicity, reasonable thoughts and emotions. It is this pure authenticity that gives this poem strong vitality and appeal.
