Chen Ziang
The Huns are still alive and Jiang Wei rejoined the army.
No, no, three rivers, chasing six counties.
The wild goose mountain crosses the north, and the fox inserts the cloud.
Don't let it go to the top, but stay in Korea and you will succeed.
Background:
This poem was written by the poet during his tenure in Chang 'an. It's a farewell poem to send a friend to frontier fortress to join the army. As an advocate of the political reform movement in the Tang Dynasty, Chen Ziang always emphasized the characteristics of the Han and Wei Dynasties. This poem swept away the tragic wind of the same theme, and was written impassioned, which is very representative of Chen Ziang's literary thought.
Precautions:
⑴ "Huns still exist": refers to the allusion of Huo Qubing, a general of title of generals in the Han Dynasty, that "Huns still exist and there is no home to return to".
⑵ "Jiang Wei joins in": Jiang Wei was a doctor in the State of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period. He advocated that the state of Jin should unite with the surrounding ethnic minorities, and once said that "harmony with the army has five benefits." Later, Rong Di attached himself to it, and Jiang Wei was rewarded with stones for eliminating border disputes. Chen changed the word "harmony" to "obedience", which showed his views on frontier affairs at that time, and hoped that his friends would be "versatile" like that.
(3) "Don't be a hero in the Three Rivers": The hero in the Six Counties originally refers to the hero in the above places, especially Zhao Chongguo in the Western Han Dynasty. Hanshu is recorded as a "good family in six counties".
⑷ "Don't let Ran Yan climb the mountain, but stay in the Han Dynasty to make achievements": According to the Biography of Dou Xian in the Later Han Dynasty, Dou Xian was a chariot general, broke the Northern Han Dynasty Khan, climbed Ranyanshan Mountain and carved stones to make achievements.
Appreciate:
Yes, a farewell poem by a good friend (surnamed Wei, the head of the brothers, hence the name). This poem does not belong to the general farewell poem, it lingers in a sad and sad mode. On the whole, it encourages the explorers to make contributions and expresses the author's generous ambition.
The first two sentences, "Huns are still alive, and Jiang Wei rejoined the army", are shocking to read. In this way, we can clearly realize the urgency of the border military situation and feel the intense pulse of the poet. The first sentence implicitly uses the allusion of Huo Qubing, the great enemy of the Han Dynasty, "Huns still exist and have no home", expressing the lofty sentiments of taking the world as their responsibility. The word "Xiongnu" here refers to a few ruling groups that invaded the border during the Han and Tang Dynasties. The poet also compared the policy of "harmony and honor" in the Spring and Autumn Period to eliminate the troubles on the border of Jin State, and changed "harmony and honor" to "joint honor", which vividly expressed the poet's views on this war, and also explained from the side that joint honor was a feat of defending the country.
In three or four sentences, "Three Rivers" pointed out the farewell place. Hedong, Hanoi and Henan in ancient times were collectively called Sanjiang, which generally referred to the plain area in the middle of the Yellow River Basin. Biography of Huo Zhi in Historical Records says: "Fujiang River is one of the three wonders in the world. If it stands on its feet, the king will live longer", which generally refers to the place where the capital Chang 'an sees off guests. "Six counties" refers to Jincheng, Longxi, Tianshui, Anding, Beidi and Shangjun. "Heroes in Six Counties" originally refers to the heroes in the above places, and here refers to Zhao Chongguo who made contributions in the frontier during the Western Han Dynasty. The intention of two sentences is: in the bustling imperial city, apart from friends, there is always some disappointment in each other's hearts; However, they are duty-bound to serve the country, and they meet hand in hand: they want to gallop on the battlefield like Zhao Chongguo, a famous Han Dynasty star who is known as the hero of six counties, and make meritorious deeds by killing the enemy. Although these two sentences have a sense of melancholy, they are magnificent in spirit.
"The wild goose mountain crosses the north, and the fox inserts the cloud." These two sentences are about where David went to join the army. A word "horizontal" describes the importance of the geographical location of Yanmen Mountain, which is located in the north of Daizhou. The word "knot" not only vividly describes the rigor of flying fox jam, but also points out that flying fox jam echoes and is connected with Yunzhong County from a distance. They constitute the natural barrier of the Central Plains (Sanjiang). The scenery here is not in front of us, but in the poet's imagination. It can be written in a real or imaginary way. The importance of geographical location and the steepness of the mountain pass show that David's trip is of great responsibility. This paved the way for the end of the sentence.
Therefore, the ending sentence "Don't let Ran Yan go up, leave Gong Hanjiang" is natural. The allusion used here refers to Dou Xian, a general who rode chariots in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He defeated Xiongnu North Khan with outstanding military exploits, pursued his victory, climbed Mount Yanran (now the Mongolian people * * * and the country hangs Ai Shan), and made meritorious deeds by carving stones. Once again, the author encourages his friends, hoping that he can make a name for himself beyond the Great Wall, and not only leave the achievements of the Han generals on Yanran Mountain, but also have the brilliant exploits of my soldiers in the Tang Dynasty. This semantically echoes the first two sentences.
The whole poem is in one go, full of the spirit of striving for progress, and shows the poet's thoughts and sentiments of "reporting the country's sense of the times and drawing his sword to come" (35 poems). The feelings are bold and vigorous, the tone is generous and tragic, and the heroic spirit is compelling. It reads like a war drum and is full of vitality.
