Born as a hero, death is also a ghost, expressing the author's deep patriotism.

Life is a hero, and death is also a ghost. The first two sentences of the poem break through the air, like a thousand pounds, and show the spirit of life and death worthy of being a hero in front of the reader, which makes people awe-inspiring. These two poems are a kind of condensation of essence, a kind of bearing of courage, and a fearless attitude of life, because of their lofty realm and extraordinary momentum, they have become famous sentences recited through the ages.

The last two sentences of the poem, "I still think of Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong", point out the reason. Xiang Yu's most heroic act was to commit suicide because he "had no face to see Jiangdong's fathers and elders", and gave up the spirit of temporarily avoiding Jiangdong's revival.
