The river is red, the night rain is cool and the rain is very cool. The original text of the rise of the army is:
The golden armor and carved swords record that the camp gate was first established on that day. Grinding the shield nose and waving a thousand pieces of paper, the dragon and snake are still wet. The iron horse is neighing at dawn and the camp wall is cold, and the building boat is crossing the wind and waves at night. Who can pity him? He is a general with ape-armed arms and no merit. Ping Rong Ce, joining the army. All scattered and careless. Spread the fragrance of the Tea Sutra and review it from time to time. I am afraid that guests will talk about Yusai affairs, so I teach my children to recite Huajianji. I lamented that the strength of my ministers was not as good as that of others, how can I compare with it now? The River Is Red·The Night Rain Is So Cool I Suddenly Moved to Join the Army Translation and Annotations
The translator thinks about the time when I was in the commander's mansion, wearing golden armor and holding a carved sword; Not dry yet. At dawn, the cold air invades people, and the armored horses are already neighing and rushing to the battlefield; in the dark night, the wind is howling, the roaring waves are roaring, and tall warships are rushing to cross. Back then, Li Guang made countless meritorious deeds and was eventually reduced to a commoner. Who could sympathize with this injustice? Those poems about strategies for resisting the enemy and recovering, and recording life in the army, had no choice but to be lost and were too lazy to clean up. I can only pass the time by burning incense and cooking tea. Now I am afraid that people will talk about the frontier fortress, so let’s teach my children to recite the "Huajian Collection" for the time being. I just lamented that I was not as good as others in my prime, let alone now!

Manjianghong·The night rain is very cool and the creative background of "Suddenly Moved to Join the Army"
The author of this poem said in his own annotation "Suddenly moved to join the Army", that is, the author suddenly had the idea of ??joining the army to fight against the Jin Dynasty. The situation is this: Liu Kezhuang was deposed because of the "Jianghu Poetry Case". When the Mongols destroyed the Jin Dynasty in the sixth year of Shaoding (AD 1233), the Song army went north to seek recovery in Henan, and Liu Kezhuang was idle at home. This war between Song and Jin aroused the poet's idea of ??joining the army to fight against the Jin. This is the background for the author to write this word. Manjianghong · Night Rain is Cool and Very Sudden, Appreciation of the Rise of the Army
The first part of the poem begins with the memory of the military camp life in the past. "The golden armor and the carved sword remember the day when the camp was first established." "Remember the day" indicates that what is written here is a memory of the past. The poet recalls the majestic scene when he began his military career. "Golden Armor and Eagle Eagle" describes the magnificence of the weapon. "The Yuan Men were first established" means that they started to work in the military affairs. At that time, Li Jue was appointed as the envoy to the Jianghuai River to control the armies along the river. The commander's mansion was located in Jiankang. Liu Kezhuang was in charge of documents in the shogunate and was known as the "smoking calligraphy pen", which was unparalleled for a time. ” He was also very conceited about this. The so-called “young conceited Lingyun pen” was only twenty-three years old. The three lines of "grinding the shield's nose" describe the poet's talented and extremely proud mental state at that time. "With a wave of a thousand pieces of paper, the dragon and the snake are still wet" shows that when he was drafting documents, he was quick in writing, and his writing was as fast as a snake. He did not add any points to his writing and relied on his superhuman talent. "The iron horse neighs at dawn while the camp wall is cold, and the flat boat crosses the windy waves at night." These two lines are derived from the famous line in Lu You's poem "Shu Ang": "The iron horse crosses Guazhou in the snow at night, and the iron horse crosses the pass in the strong autumn wind." "Dawn." "His", "Yedu", one writes daytime, the other writes nighttime. It shows how powerful the enemy is and how urgent the battle is. The two sentences "iron horse" express a magnificent battle scene and a chilling battle atmosphere. The three sentences "Who has pity" borrowed the allusion of "Li Guang is difficult to seal" to show that although he was once full of ambitions, he finally came back without success, and his resentment was beyond words. Here the author uses Li Guang to describe himself, which has a sense of injustice. According to historical records, when Liu Kezhuang joined Li Jue's army in Jiankang, due to the defeat of Sishang on the front line, both the government and the opposition advocated "defense and ease of war." Liu Kezhuang suggested reducing the number of border troops and stationing them on the border to strengthen the foundation. "The mastermind is taboo," that is, he resigns and returns home. Because he resigned from the army this time, he was never able to directly participate in the battle with the enemy again in his life. So whenever I recall this period of military life, I feel both fascinated and regretful. But overall, the tone of the film is still high-spirited and exciting.
The next part describes the poet's sad and deep lament when he is filled with anger. At this time, the poet was retired and had no way to find a job. He could only speak the truth and express his inner pain and indignation. "Ping Rong Ce, joining the army, everything is scattered, and he is in a hurry to clean up.
"For a patriotic poet who is also a soldier, the policy of peace and military affairs, whether in the army or not, is the memory of combat life and a precious document. Generally, they are compiled into special collections and passed down to future generations. It's like tying a stone to record merit. But now they are all scattered and too lazy to clean up. "Pass on the incense of the Tea Sutra and review it all the time." That is to say, the poet can only pass the time by burning incense and cooking tea. Lu Yu of Tang Dynasty wrote three volumes of "The Book of Tea". "Incense biography" refers to the incense manual, the types of incense, the methods of burning incense, the utensils, etc. Ding said that he had "Tian Xiang Zhuan", and Shen Li and Hong Cu both had "Xiang Pu". Reading this can't help but remind people of the famous line in Xin Qiji's "Partican Sky": "But I exchanged ten thousand words for a smooth military strategy in exchange for my boss planting trees and books." In fact, this is done against one's will and as a last resort, and is completely helpless. "I am afraid that guests will talk about Yusai affairs, so I will teach my children to recite "The Collection of Flowers"." On the surface, these two sentences mean that the poet has thought about his death and has no intention of asking about side affairs, so he uses "The Collection of Flowers" which describes beauty and love. ” to teach their children. Now not only does the poet himself not talk about "Pingrong", but he is also afraid that his guests will talk about it. Here, the pain left by the poet's past experiences is deliberately written. It is an angry statement that makes it difficult to realize his ambition! "I lamented that the strength of my ministers was not as strong as that of others. How can I compare with it now?" The conclusion uses the martial language of Zhu Zhi, a doctor from the Spring and Autumn Period. "Zuo Zhuan" recorded in the 30th year of Duke Xi: Zhu Zhiwu said to Zheng Wengong: "The strength of my ministers is not as good as that of others; now I am old and unable to do anything." This means that although there is "the rise of joining the army", Helpless and powerless. On the surface, he is complaining about the passing of time, but in fact he is lamenting that his ambitions have not been fulfilled, and he cannot express his ambitions, and he is using a crooked pen.
Liu Kezhuang is a poet of Xin School, and the style of this poem is very similar to Xin Ci. In the midst of generosity and wantonness, there are often sad and deep lamentations. The poet takes the integrity and fame of his determination to regain the Central Plains as the main theme of the poem, expressing the hero's thoughts of losing his ambition and unwilling to be lonely. An important feature of the expression technique of words is the use of curved strokes to make the meaning of words deeper and more subtle.
Poetry works: The river is red, the night rain is so cool, and suddenly people are eager to join the army. Poetry author: Liu Kezhuang, Song Dynasty. Poetry classification: military journey, expressing feelings, unrealized ambitions
