Frontier fortress poetry is a poem with the theme of frontier military and civilian life and natural scenery. It is generally believed that frontier poems first developed in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties, flourished in the Sui Dynasty, and entered the golden age of development in the Tang Dynasty. According to statistics, there were less than 200 frontier poems before the Tang Dynasty, and more than 2,000 frontier poems were included in The Whole Tang Poetry.
Frontier poems are the main theme of Tang poetry, the most profound, imaginative and artistic part of Tang poetry. Poems that focus on the life of frontier troops, or describe the wonders beyond the Great Wall, or reflect the hardships of guarding the frontier are called frontier poems. This kind of poetry is extremely rich in ideological content: it can express the lofty sentiments of eager to make contributions and serve the country; You can write about the homesickness of border guards and the hatred of missing women at home; Can show the monotony and hardship of life beyond the Great Wall, as well as the cruelty of years of war; You can vent your dissatisfaction with the opening of the border and your resentment against the greed of the general; You can marvel at describing the strange scenery and folk customs of the frontier. What is revealed in the poem may also be contradictory and complicated emotions: the generosity of joining the army and the helplessness of homesickness for a long time; The conflict between patriotic passion and hard life; Dedication to the country and hatred for the incompetence of the general.
