The Creation Background of Langshui Song Du Fu first went to Langzhou in the autumn of Zai Yuan, Guangde (763). Langzhou was the temporary capital of Sichuan for many times in ancient times, which is now Langzhong (the ancient city of Langzhong) to attend the funeral for his good friend Fang Guan. At the end of winter, I returned to Zizhou. In the second year of Guangde (764), from the early spring to the Spring Festival Gala (that is, from the first month of the lunar calendar to March), Du Fu went to Langzhong for the second time and stayed for nearly three months at the invitation of Wang Cishi. In the meantime, he took part in the grave-sweeping activities in Langzhong of the Tang Dynasty, and sacrificed his ancestors and old friends for ten days around Tomb-Sweeping Day. I wrote the famous Song of Waves, because I was filled with emotion.

Appreciation of Langshui Song The first sentence "What color is Jialing River" asks about the color of Jialing River water in spring, and the second sentence "Shi Dai Bi Yu" is the answer to the previous sentence. These two sentences are describing the natural scenery of Jialing River, which belongs to lyric expression in the scenery.

"Only pity the sun and break the waves" means that he took a boat on the Jialing River and enjoyed the sun reflected on the river. Waves came in, disturbing the shadow of the sun on the water. Du Fu felt sorry for the destruction of this beautiful scenery. Just after Du Fu expressed his regret that the beautiful scenery reflected in the red sun of Jialing River was destroyed, he immediately paid attention to the green grass on the beach and praised Jialing River (the water of the Western Han Dynasty) with the turning point of "spring comes back to the sand". The previous sentence "Breaking the Waves in the Sun" is about scenery, while the previous sentence "Being Cherish" is about feelings; The latter sentence "Spring Back to the Battlefield" not only opposes "breaking the waves in the sun", but also incorporates the emotion expressed by "recovering", that is, "seeing more hope". These two sentences belong to the expression of lyric poetry, which integrates scenery and emotion.

In Du Shi Jing Quan, Liu commented that "Batumi paddled over the side" was "less scenery". "Water chickens come and go with fish in their mouths" was also evaluated as "long article" by Liu. Although the first sentence here only describes the monotonous scenery when Ba Tong rowed past Du Fu, it embodies the people's nature in Du Fu's poems-"Ba Tong" is the first and only representative figure in Song of Wolf Mountain and Song of Waves. The last sentence here vaguely refers to the location where Du Fu wrote this poem-about Langzhong Nanjindu or just around the South Building (Huaguang Building). This latter poem, which seems to describe scenery, was rated as a "long article" by Liu, and he was good at it. It not only tells people about the poet's position at that time, so that future generations can distinguish the environment in which Du Fu wrote this poem, but also spreads its necessary cultural artistic conception for the key content of this poem, that is, the last sentence. Therefore, "the language is long." These two sentences are expressed by lyric poems with mixed scenes.

"The victory in Langzhong can be heartbroken". Du Fu described his feelings with the sadness of "heartbroken" after learning that Langzhong had won the ancient victory. It shows that Du Fu's mentality of winning things in Langzhong is similar to that of remembering the "Anshi Rebellion". Du Yi in Du Shi Jing Quan is full of anger and murder to explain Du Fu's mood at this moment, which shows that Du Fu is probably sad at this moment. The conclusion sentence "Langya Nanshi Shu": Du Shi Jing Quan combined with the explanation of Langya Nanshi Shu, and gave an example of "the twelfth floor of five cities in Langya County". This shows that in the Qing Dynasty, scholars (including the cultural background that may have lasted until the Tang Dynasty or earlier) knew the ancient land of Langzhong, that is, Kunlun Yuen Long, that is, the fairyland of Yuen Long-Jinping Mountain in the south of Langzhou, which was manned by mountains, and people ascended to immortality, and its mountains, geomantic omen and myths were trinity. The last two poems are both lyrical and narrative-this expression makes it easier to combine realism and romanticism in poetry.

Although Du Fu's time in Langzhong was not long, he wrote many poems. This song of Langshui is dedicated to the victory of Langshui. Together with Wolf Folk Songs, it became Du Fu's masterpiece in this period.
