The Warlords Clash

By Mao Zedong

Sudden veer of wind and rain

Showering misery through the land,

The warlords are clashing anew —

Yet another Millet Dream.

Red banners leap over Ting River

Straight to Longyan and Shanghang.

We have reclaimed part of the Golden Vase

And land is being shared out with a will.
