Features: Introduction This book won the 9th "People's Liberation Army Literature Award." Most of the works in "Borderland Notes" are related to history or war, and they are connected to the vicissitudes of social and cultural evolution. My favorite chapters are those that reflect on history, those filled with nostalgic thoughts during visits to ancient sites, those lingering sighs over cultural relics or ancient battlefields, and those unique appraisals of the merits and demerits of historical figures. As the saying goes, "learn from the past to avoid repeating mistakes," and there is a sense of learning from history in them. Although history has become a distant past like smoke and mist, it will never disappear. We have walked step by step from history to the present, but what we write today is also a kind of history. We need history to constantly remind us. In "Borderland Notes," the works that discuss history are actually related to war, such as "Viewing the Sea," "Hong Kong, China Once Knew This Knee," "Sleeping in the Same Bed, Don't Forget to Tell Lin Wang," "Raising a Long Whip to Rule the Universe," "The Battle of Changping," "Visiting the Zhao King City," "Qin Emperor's Road," and "From Fan Li to."
