Translation of the first paragraph of "Red Cliff Fu"

This land is so beautiful that countless heroes bow to their knees. Cherish Qin Huang Hanwu, slightly lost literary talent; Tang Zong Song Zu, slightly less coquettish. Genghis Khan, the hero of the throne, only knows how to draw a bow and shoot arrows. These characters are gone, a few heroes who can make contributions, look at today's people.

This is the beginning of Red Cliff Fu, which the author Su Shi used to express his feelings about history. Jiangshan is so beautiful that it attracts countless heroes. However, not all the great men in history are outstanding in literary talent. Although some people have made achievements in politics and military affairs, they are slightly inferior in literature. On the contrary, some people are excellent in literature, but slightly inferior in politics and military affairs. This is Su Shi's evaluation of historical figures and his reflection on history.

Battle of red cliff

Battle of Red Cliffs is a famous war in the history of China and an important story in The Romance of Three Kingdoms. Chibi, located on the south bank of the Yangtze River, has a dangerous terrain. In 208 AD, Cao Cao led an army to attack Chibi, and Liu Bei and Sun Quan jointly resisted Cao Jun's attack. Under the planning of Zhou Yu, the allied forces carried out a famous fire attack in Chibi waters, and finally defeated Cao Jun successfully.

Battle of Red Cliffs's victory not only defeated Cao Cao's ambition, but also laid the foundation for the alliance between Liu Bei and Sun Quan. The victory of this war has also become a much-told story in the history of China, which has been handed down from generation to generation.
