"Drinking horses on a cold night at the Great Wall, the ancient garrison carved desert wind. The risk is Lulong Mountain and Sea, who is better than this in the southeast "(Lin Qingze Xu's" The Feeling of Walking Out of Jiayuguan ")
"The hills overlap with Dai Xiongguan, and the pass stands high among the lonely people" (Song Qingbo Lu's "Entering the Pass")
"The Great Wall is as high as white clouds, and the dangerous building is as low as ten thousand feet. Lock and key nine sides connect Mobei, Marubi four counties lead Anxi "(Qing Pei Jingfu's" Climbing Jiayuguan ")
Describe the magnificent landscape of the desert from different angles. Some focus on customs: "When you look at Qilian, the Qifeng is high in the sky. To meet Jiayu in the west, there will be no blue clouds. " (Yao, author of Qilian Mountain) Some focus on sandstorms; "The wind shakes the willows for thousands of miles, and the moon shines on the quicksand for another day" (Xun's Dunhuang Nostalgia). More poems focus on the majestic appearance of Guancheng: "Drinking horses on a cold night outside the Great Wall, the ancient garrison carved desert wind. The danger is Lulong Mountain and Sea, and who in the southeast is better than this "(Lin Qingzexu's Out of Jiayuguan," The mountains overlap and Dai Xiongguan, and Guanzhong is towering and lonely "(Song Qingbolu's Entering the Pass); "The Great Wall is as high as white clouds, and the dangerous building is as low as ten thousand feet. Lock and key nine sides connect Mobei, Marubi four counties delimit Anxi ("Qing Pei Jing Fu Deng Jiayuguan"). During the Ming and Qing dynasties, these poems showed the roughness and strangeness of "the world is great" from different aspects. Jiayuguan is an important military place in the northwest, and many Jiayuguan poems reflect the political and military situation in the northwest. In the early Qing dynasty, they often sent troops to the northwest. The sound of gongs and drums is endless. The poem "Send Chada, the military minister of Yongzheng, to lead the general out of Jiayuguan" reflects this scene: "Announce the horse to lead the princes to the west, and guard the building in a small camp", "Think about the sweat and feather when the standard changes, and comment on the Lu Tusi". At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Governor Zuo from Shaanxi and Gansu also moved westward from Jiayuguan. Adjutant Shi Xiuhua wrote a poem: "Dusk." After that, the northwest was peaceful, but Jiayuguan was still heavily stationed: "The frontier defense was built since ancient times, and the sundae is lying idle today." "The wind roared on the vast sea, and the moon was deserted and desolate." This is a poem from Zhou Dawu's "Climbing Jiayuguan" in Shaanxi Province.
