What do you mean when you say that the Three Kingdoms are divided and bound by his greatness, that the Eight Fortress is built on his reputation, and that it stands like his sorrow beside the ever-changing river, and that he has never conquered the State of Wu? Translation:

Among the three countries, Kong Ming's exploits are the most outstanding, and his eight diagrams are even more famous throughout the ages.

Despite the impact of the river, the stone remained intact. The thousand-year regret lies in Liu Bei's blunder in swallowing Wu.

It is from the Eight Arrays, and it is the work of Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty. This is a poem written by the author in memory of Zhuge Liang when he first arrived in Kuizhou. It was written in the first year of Dali, Tang Daizong (766). The first two sentences praise Zhuge Liang's great achievements, especially his military talents and achievements. The last two sentences express the regret that Liu Bei lost his teacher and ruined Zhuge Liang's great cause of reunifying China with Wu Kang and Cao Cao. The last sentence takes care of the beginning, three sentences take care of two sentences. In terms of content, it is not only nostalgia, but also expression, with affection in the heart and intention by implication; Don't draw a square in the quatrains.
