1, "levee" Tang Wang Changling
When the moon was bright in the Qin Dynasty and closed in the Han Dynasty, the Long March did not return.
But make Longcheng fly, and don't teach Huma to cross the Yinshan Mountain.
The poet starts with the scenery, and the first sentence outlines a desolate scene of Leng Yue looking at the border. "The bright moon in Qin Dynasty and the custom in Han Dynasty" cannot be understood as the custom of the bright moon in Qin Dynasty. Here, Qin, Han, custom and moon are used alternately, which is called "intertextuality" in rhetoric, meaning bright moon and customs in Qin and Han Dynasties. The poet hinted that the war here has never stopped since the Qin and Han Dynasties. "Wan Li" means frontier fortress and inland far from Wan Li. Although it is a virtual reference, it highlights a vast space. The Return of Man reminds people of the disaster brought by the war and expresses the poet's grief and indignation.
How can we get rid of people's difficulties? The poet pinned his hopes on a talented general. "But let the Dragon City fly and stay, and don't teach Huma to spend the Yinshan Mountain." As long as Li Guang, the flying general guarding Liuzhou, is still alive, he won't let the Hu people's cavalry cross the Yinshan Mountain. "Flying General of Dragon City" refers to Li Guang, a famous soldier guarding Lulongcheng in Han Dynasty. He was brave and good at fighting, and defeated Xiongnu many times. Don't "don't teach" and pronounce the word "teach" flat. "Huma" here refers to the cavalry invaded by foreign countries. "Duyin Mountain" crosses Yinshan Mountain. Yinshan Mountain is a large east-west mountain range in the north, which is the natural barrier of the northern border defense in Han Dynasty. The last two sentences are subtly written, which makes people draw the necessary conclusions by comparing the past.
This poem is called the masterpiece of the Tang Dynasty. It is tragic but not sad, generous but not superficial. This poem is the first of Wang's two poems.
