The People's Liberation Army occupied Nanjing.
Zhongshan is windy and rainy, and millions of heroes cross the river.
Tiger's dragon card is better than in the past, upside down and generous.
It is better to chase after the poor bandits with victory than to learn from the overlord.
If the sky is sentimental, it will grow old, and the right way in the world is vicissitudes.
This poem was first published in the People's Literature Publishing House 19631February edition of Poems of Chairman Mao. 1April 2, 9491day, President Mao Zedong and Commander-in-Chief Zhu De issued the order to March across the country, ordering the whole army to resolutely, thoroughly, cleanly and thoroughly annihilate all Kuomintang reactionaries who dared to resist and liberate all China. China People's Liberation Army, with a million troops, crossed the Yangtze River from Hukou, Jiangxi Province in the west to Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province in the east, and occupied Nanjing, the "capital" of the reactionary Kuomintang government on April 23rd.
The main idea of this poem is that Nanjing was suddenly attacked by a revolutionary storm and a million troops crossed the river. Nanjing, with excellent terrain, has changed its former appearance, the world has overturned and its feelings are passionate. We should learn from Xiang Yu's failure, carry the revolution through to the end, resolutely, thoroughly, cleanly and thoroughly destroy the enemy, and not give the enemy a chance to make a comeback for "peace." If heaven is sentient and sees the darkness and cruelty of the Kuomintang reactionaries, it will grow old painfully. People ruled by reactionaries will naturally completely overthrow the rule of reactionaries and complete the earth-shattering revolutionary cause.
Zhongshan is the Purple Mountain, to the east of Nanjing. Pale yellow, with fear. Nanjing was suddenly attacked by a revolutionary storm. Pale yellow also means discoloration. This is the so-called pun in rhetoric.
Tiger sitting on a dragon's wheel: describe the excellent terrain. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang looked at the topography of Jianye (now south of Nanjing), the capital of Wu State, and once said, "The Dragon Plate in Zhongshan is surrounded by stones and is the residence of the emperor." (See Lu Wu's quotation from "Taiping Magnolia") Stone is Stone Mountain, which is west of Nanjing today.
Generosity: sensibility, enthusiasm. Cao Cao's short song: Generosity.
It is appropriate to chase the rest of the warriors after the poor robbers: the rest of the warriors, Yu Yong. A rogue, a sworn enemy. Biography of the later Han Dynasty: "The art of war (referring to the art of war of Sima) does not chase the enemy." This statement has been changed here, calling for the revolution to go through to the end, resolutely, thoroughly, cleanly and thoroughly destroying the enemy, leaving no future trouble.
Don't sell your name and learn from it: sell your name, deliberately pretend to force it or hunt it by some means. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu (who once claimed to be the overlord of the western Chu Dynasty) and Liu Bang (later Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty) rose up against Qin at the same time. Liu Bangxian rejected Xiang Yu according to Xianyang and Qin Dou. Xiang Yu annihilated Qin Jun's main force and entered Xianyang with 400,000 troops. At that time, in order to avoid the name of "injustice", Liu Bang was not wiped out by superior forces, but was later wiped out by Liu Bang. This means that we should learn from Xiang Yu's failure and not give the enemy a chance to make a comeback for the sake of "peace".
If the heaven is sentimental, the heaven is old, and the human path is vicissitudes: the last sentence borrows a sentence from Li He's poem "Jin Tong Xian Han Fu". The original poem tells the legend that the extremely precious bronze fairy portrait made by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was moved from Chang 'an to Luoyang by Wei Mingdi. The original sentence means that for such human hatred, if there is love in the sky, it will grow old because of sadness; What is said here is that if heaven has feelings and sees the darkness and cruelty of the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang, it will grow old because of pain; People oppressed by reactionaries naturally hope to completely overthrow reactionary rule and complete the earth-shattering revolutionary cause. The right path on earth is the normal law of social development. The vicissitudes of life have changed dramatically, and the sea has become a mulberry field, which is a metaphor for revolutionary development and change. Ancient myth: Fairy Magu told another fairy king that since they met, the East China Sea has turned into a mulberry field three times (see Ge Hong's Fairy Biography).
