Extended data
There are always different opinions about the time when Mulan Ci was written, but Ancient and Modern Music Records recorded Mulan Ci at the earliest, which proves that Mulan Ci was written not later than Chen. In the poem, the son of heaven is called "Khan", and the battle place is in the north, so the birth area is in the Northern Dynasties. There are some words in the poem, such as "Farewell to the Yellow River, Go to Montenegro at dusk" and "Listen to the hustle and bustle of Yanshan Mountain". Killing Tiger Mountain in Montenegro is in the southeast of Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, not far from the Yellow River. Yanshan Mountain refers to Yanran Mountain, that is, today's Mongolians and the State Bank of Ai Shan. Accordingly, the war in Mulan's poems happened between the Northern Wei Dynasty and Rouran.
Rouran is a nomadic country in the north. During the period of 158 (394-552), it fought many wars with Northern Wei, Eastern Wei and Northern Qi. And the most important battlefield, it is Montenegro, Ran Yan mountain. In 429, Emperor Taizu of the Northern Wei Dynasty made a moderate northern expedition, that is, "driving out of the house, heading straight for Montenegro", "Yanran in the north, three thousand miles north and south." ("Northern History, Biography of Creeping", crawling is soft. )
This poem was included in Yuefu Poetry Collection and widely circulated in the Tang Dynasty, as evidenced by the Mulan Song that Wei planned to write. Therefore, most scholars believe that the folk song Mulan Poetry originated in the late Northern Dynasty.
