Vernacular translation
Having just experienced the war between the north and the south, I can't help sighing with a long sword pinned to my waist. All this is to save the world and people, not for fame and fortune. The war scene is like lightning, the military situation is urgent and the action is quick. Thousands of troops are stationed in houses all over the mountains. Battlefield, like mountain climbing, needs the flexibility of command. Yesterday's war required bloodshed, but today's peaceful reunification has been achieved.
Creation background
These five short words were written when Li Shimin led the army to pacify the separatist forces in Kanto and returned to Guanzhong in the early Tang Dynasty.
At the end of Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan Group was in Guanzhong (Shaanxi), Liu Wuzhou was in Shaanxi, Wang Group controlled the Central Plains in Luoyang, and Dou Jiande occupied Shandong and Hebei. In the fourth year of Tang Gaozu Wude (62 1 year), Li Shimin first leveled Liu Wuzhou, solved his worries, and then sent a letter to Valley Pass to attack Luoyang. Before Luoyang was shot down, Dou Jiande led the troops to rescue him. Li Shimin suited part surrounded Luoyang and led thousands of cavalry to take Hulao Pass directly. At that time, Li Dou's actual strength was far from equal, but the result was that Dou Jiande was aggressive and suffered a crushing defeat in World War I in Hulao Pass. At the age of twenty-three, he defeated Wang Dou with inferior forces, which showed his outstanding commander-in-chief ability and laid the foundation of Tang Dynasty.
Make an appreciative comment
The whole poem is divided into three layers. The first floor of the first league: "I am generous with my sword, and I am not invited to help the world!" " The poet has just experienced the war of conquering the south and the north, ending the situation of national division. Now, in the face of the great rivers and mountains that have just been unified, he thinks of the hardships of the previous war and the bloody battles of the soldiers, and can't help but sigh with a sword around his waist. Because of the bloodshed and sacrifice of frontline soldiers, they won a unified situation and the people lived a stable life. All this is for "saving the world and the people", not for fame and fortune.
The middle triple is the second layer, which describes three scenes of marching, camping and attacking respectively, and is the core part of the whole poem. "Stars and feathers are mighty, and the sky is soaring into the sky" is a joint story of marching scenes. "Stars and feathers" are rendered with mighty teams and flags, and the military situation is urgent and the battle reports are endless; "Electricity is very big", like "Su", shows quick action and strict discipline. The short two crosses show readers the majestic posture of a righteous teacher with strict military style, quick action and great momentum. "Wild riding a thousand troops, the original camp was stationed in the fifth battalion", which wrote the scene of stationing, with thousands of troops and horses. The couplet "Climbing the Mountain to Celebrate the Martial Arts Festival, Holding the Water and Thinking of Soldiers" describes the battle scene, and the terrain of "Climbing the Mountain" and "Holding the Water and Holding the Back" is complex. "May the martial arts festival" and "vertical magic soldiers" mean flexible command. In the allusion of "Holding a Magic Weapon with Back Water" in Biography of Historical Records of Huaiyin Hou: "Faith is to make ten thousand people go first, go out and carry water. Zhao Jun laughed when he saw it. " Here the author compares himself with the great strategist Han Xin. The short six sentences in the middle reproduce a huge military action, from marching in procession to camping and fighting in the cold, which are concise and concrete.
The final couplet is the third layer, which ends with expressing lofty sentiments and ambitions: "We were brave in the past, but now the universe is peaceful." Echoing the first couplet from a distance, the meaning is resolute and absolutely fruitless. War is cruel and ruthless, and there will inevitably be bloodshed and sacrifice, but the sacrifice in the past is for today's reunification. The poet is full of emotion.
This poem is one of the most outstanding chapters in Li Shimin's poetry, and the whole poem is full of integrity. In terms of artistic expression, this collection of poems integrates discussion, narration, scenery description and lyricism. The whole poem is composed of five strokes and ten sentences in one go, with rigorous conception and concise language; The three or six sentences in the middle, with neat antithesis and sonorous rhyme, are excellent five-character short rows. Its bold style is quite different from the floating legacy of the Six Dynasties.

Appreciation of Tang poetry in Shaanxi Province II. Go back to Shaanxi to express my feelings.
Li Shimin
Touching this sword generously,
Do you invite names to help the world?
There are many stars in the sky.
The sun rises and the sky rises.
Riding horses everywhere,
The forest garden is stationed in the fifth battalion.
Climbing mountains to celebrate Wushu Festival,
A soldier with his back to the water.
In the past,
Today the universe is flat.
Appreciation of Li Shimin's Poetry
These five short words were written in the early Tang Dynasty, when Li Shimin led the army to pacify the separatist forces in Kanto and returned to Guanzhong.
The first couplet: "generously caress the sword, help the world, and don't invite big names"! The poet has just experienced the war of conquering the south and the north, ending the situation of national division. Now, in the face of the great rivers and mountains that have just been unified, he thinks of the hardships of the previous war and the bloody battles of the soldiers, and can't help but sigh with a sword around his waist. Because of the bloodshed and sacrifice of frontline soldiers, we have won a unified situation and let the people live a stable life! All this is for "saving the world and the people", not for fame and fortune.
The middle triple describes three scenes of marching, camping and attacking respectively, which is the core part of the whole poem.

"May the martial arts festival" and "vertical magic soldiers" mean flexible command. In just six sentences, a large-scale military action is reproduced, from marching in procession to camping and fighting in the cold, which are concise and concrete.
At the end of the couplet, I ended by expressing my lofty aspirations: "In the past, I was brave, but now the universe is peaceful." Echoing the first couplet from a distance, the meaning is resolute and absolutely fruitless.
