Xu Xilin, a modern bourgeois revolutionary, died heroically for shooting Enming, the governor of Anhui Province. He doesn't write many poems, but the poem River Bank is a heroic work. According to records, around 1905, Xu Xilin "went out of Shanhaiguan to Fengtian and Jilin, and then returned through the frontiers of northwest provinces." This poem was written in the spring of 1906. The works inherit the style of frontier poems in Tang Dynasty in art, and have the characteristics of heroic and vigorous. The first two poems come straight to the point, expressing their aspirations with poems, showing the heroic spirit of defeating the enemy and sweeping the army, indicating that revolutionaries vowed to overthrow the feudal dynasty of the Manchu Dynasty, pursue the victory, go straight out of the Great Wall and destroy the reactionary rulers. The revolutionary army should sing a triumphant song and return home in triumph. The author uses inverted sentences and words such as "should sing" and "swear to death" to fully highlight the revolutionaries' determination to overthrow the feudal dynasty and establish a * * * peace system and their belief in winning the revolutionary cause. The last two poems further express the author's lofty ambition to devote himself to the country and never turn back. Ma Yuan, a famous soldier in the Eastern Han Dynasty, believed that one should die for his country and be buried with horses. The author turned over the meaning of the predecessors, thinking that since revolutionaries have dedicated their whole body and mind to the motherland, they only know how to die for the country on the battlefield. As for whether to transport the body back to his hometown for burial after death, there is no need to consider it. Castle peak is full of loyalty. If you die for the motherland and the revolution, even if you are buried in a foreign land, aren't you lying in your mother's arms? Obviously, the thought here is more profound than that of Ma Yuan, and the emphasis on "just understanding" and "why bother" is even more impassioned and touching. This poem, which expresses one's mind directly, expresses one's ambition with poetry, and expresses the author's revolutionary lofty sentiments sincerely and frankly, just like a person. As Liang Qichao said: "This kind of literature is really inseparable from the author's life-at least in the second he coined these words, sentences and life became one. This kind of life is created by people who have experienced it. Therefore, I think this category is a saint of emotional writing. "
