This poem was written around 1903. At this time, China is in an era of unprecedented national crisis and extremely painful people's lives. Since 1840 Opium War, China's closed-door policy was broken, the imperialist powers' ambition to carve up China has become increasingly obvious, and they have been carrying out crazy aggression.

At this time, the revolutionaries took Tokyo, Japan as the activity center, and vigorously publicized the political ideas and revolutionary ideas of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty and establishing the Republic of China. Patriotic students studying in Japan responded one after another, publishing newspapers and books and carrying out revolutionary propaganda, calling on the people not to be "hungry ghosts of the Qing government" but to be "revolutionary warriors."

The author Lu Xun 1902 went to Japan with patriotic enthusiasm. As soon as he arrived in Japan, he took an active part in this anti-Qing patriotic revolutionary activity. 1903 published "The Soul of Sparta" in Zhejiang Tide, praising the Spartans for fighting the invaders with their lives and blood, so as to attack the rulers of the Qing Dynasty for humiliating their power and country, awaken the struggle of the people of China, and resolutely cut off the braid symbolizing feudal tradition and racial oppression.
