Chapter 47 Seven Laws · Climbing Mount Lushan

A mountain flies to the edge of the big river, and leaps to the verdant four hundred spins. , The hot wind blows the rain and sprinkles the river sky. , White smoke rises under the waves. , Can you cultivate fields in the Peach Blossom Spring? This poem was first published in the December 1963 edition of "Chairman Mao's Poems" by People's Literature Publishing House. Lushan Mountain, with its strange peaks and mountains, misty clouds, waterfalls and clear streams, pleasant climate, and because of the river and lake, it is even more extraordinary, has always been a scenic spot for mountains and rivers. At the end of June 1959, Mao Zedong climbed to this mountain. From the top of the mountain, he looked up and down, wandering around the world with his mind full of attention.

At the beginning of the poem, the word "fei" is very flexible, and the word "yue" is majestic.The ninety-nine peaks of Lushan Mountain are winding and majestic, but the poet can make them "fly to the edge of the river", not only turning static into dynamic, but also turning rocks into life.Qigui's pen and ink make the original majestic Lushan Mountain have another layer of magical color in an instant.However, it is this strange, majestic and lush mountain that the poet can "jump" over the "four hundred turns" of the mountain and stand on the high peak, overlooking the rivers, lakes, mountains and rivers, and looking at the world. Pride and ambition.This sets the emotional tone for the entire poem.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, standing on the top of the mountain, you can see all kinds of weather.Facing the treacherous and boundless sea of ​​clouds and mist in front of him, the well-prepared poet thinks of the isolation, blockade and betrayal of China that is being performed on the stage of "Little World", and he unknowingly repays it with the eyes of a big roc who looks down on a bird. take a glance.At that time, China was isolated and blocked by Western countries such as the United States and Britain, and recently there was a betrayal of faith by the Soviet Union unilaterally announcing the nullity of the nuclear agreement signed with China (June 1959). The country under the leadership of the poet was in a difficult situation.However, such "world wind and rain" is just a small farce in the poet's eyes.Go your own way, do your own business, the real hope in the world is here.The reason why the poet has the boldness and self-confidence of "cold eyes towards the ocean" is firstly due to his personality, secondly due to the rapid development of the country in the past ten years, and thirdly due to the "hot wind" blowing from the people's communes in China.The boldness of a statesman, the passion of a poet, and his personal temperament make it impossible for Mao Zedong, who stands on the top of the clouds and mist of Lushan Mountain, not to make such voices.Although the poet was wary of and reflected on the "adventurous advance" policy of "taking steel as the key link and leaping forward in an all-round way" formulated by the Beidaihe Conference in 1958, the poet still believed that the "People's Commune Movement" was the most important step towards communism. important step.Amidst the wave of "people's communes are good" all over the country, when the poet came to Mount Lushan and thought about the international and domestic, the present and the future, how could he not have his own boldness and self-confidence?In his poems, it is quite natural that the leaping "hot wind" spirit appears. This is not only Mao Zedong's own character, courage and spiritual pursuit, but also the embodiment of the group spirit of that era.

Standing on the top of the mountain, looking at Jianghan in the west and Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the east, the poet is full of pride.The two sentences of the neck couplet closely inherit the poetic flavor of the jaw couplet, the combination of reality and fiction, and the description of scenery and narration are born together.In fact, it is about the land of Jianghan and Sanwu, and it is about using the yellow crane to take off and the rising white smoke to describe the "People's Commune" movement on the land of China, which is full of enthusiasm, steaming, and passionate. The longing for prosperity and prosperity has a broad road to the infinitely beautiful communism.The scene description is to describe the imaginary three towns of Wuhan and the misty Wuyue land photographed by clouds, floating water, and Wuyue.

It is because of the emotional accumulation of the jaw couplet and the neck couplet that the poet's last question: "Tao Ling doesn't know where to go, can he plow the fields in the peach blossom garden?" Such a question is the end of passion, and it is also proud and confident. Performance.The poet smiled and asked around and the world with his unique humor: Where is Tao Qian?Where did he go?Could the Utopian Peach Blossom Land he imagined be plowing the fields?The implication of the poet's words is that only today's socialist avenue is the right way to truly lead to the peach blossoms in the world!

This poem, magnificent and passionate, is a common product of the poet and the times.Readers can get a glimpse of the environment of an era, and also feel the passion of a poet and politician.As time goes by, the "Left" mistakes involved in the poem can only be turned into a mirror for future generations, but as far as the expression of the poem itself is concerned, it has a certain aesthetic value.
