In the eleventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty (196 BC), King Yingbu of Huainan rebelled. Liu Bang personally led a large army to attack him. When he was in his hometown of Peixian County, he invited his fellow villagers to a banquet in the palace and selected 120 young people to sing and make music. Liu Bang drank to his head, suddenly built the building himself, and composed an impromptu song: "The wind is blowing, the clouds are flying, and the sea is coming, and we are returning to our hometown, An'an." When you get strong men, you can guard the four sides." After singing, he asked the young people to learn to sing along with him and even danced himself. Where he was moved, tears streamed down his face.

"Song of the Great Wind" expresses Liu Bang's pride in returning to his hometown and his urgent desire to stabilize the country. The first sentence uses the image of wind and cloud as a metaphor to describe the mighty momentum of the peasant uprising in the late Qin Dynasty and the brave march to quell rebellions in various places. He seems to realize that the rise of the Han Dynasty depends on the objective situation and historical trends. The second sentence touches the scene and evokes emotion. When the world is unified, the world surrenders, and when he returns to his hometown in glory, he can express his pride without showing off his power. The sentiment of the third sentence is twofold. There is both a vision and a call to recruit wise men and warriors to govern the country in order to consolidate the emperor's legacy. There is also a premonition that his life is in danger and he is worried about who will guard the country. Exhausted mentally and physically, Liu Bang died the next year. After his death, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty established Peigong as an ancestral temple to worship Liu Bang, and asked the 120-year-old youth who sang with Liu Bang to specialize in music work. By the time of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, "Da Feng Song" had been the song of Peidi all year round. Music and dance performed at the ancestral temple.
