Chapter 1033: Niangzi Pass

Chapter 1033: Niangzi Guan (Page 1/1)

Hearing Comrade Lao Li say this, the officials who were still very happy just now immediately fell silent.

Obviously, it is impossible to deny Princess Pingyang's achievements, after all, Princess Pingyang's exploits are there, and her importance to the founding of the Tang Dynasty cannot be ignored.

At that time, Li Yuan's main force crossed the Yellow River into Guanzhong, and Princess Pingyang had already laid a large territory for him in Guanzhong, and then, Princess Pingyang selected more than 10,000 elite soldiers to join Comrade Li on the north bank of the Wei River to jointly attack Chang'an.

And Princess Pingyang's husband, that is, Chai Shao, is only on the same level as Princess Pingyang. The husband and wife each led an army, and each had its own shogunate. In November, the army fought in one place and quickly conquered Chang'an.

After conquering Chang'an, the war was not over, because although Comrade Li Yuan took Chang'an at that time, he only roughly controlled half of Guanzhong, and he was surrounded by enemies.

After stabilizing Chang'an, Li Yuan immediately turned around to deal with Xue Ju, who possessed the land of Longxi, and Li Liang of Liangzhou, and Li Yuan ordered Comrade Li Er to go to the conquest. Comrade Li Er also lived up to Li Yuan's expectations and spent about two years sweeping away these forces.

At this time, Princess Pingyang was not idle, her main task at that time was to defend Shanxi, the base camp of the Li family, and the place where she was stationed was the Weize Pass in the mouth of Comrade Li. Shanxi is the barrier between the Central Plains and the Guanzhong region, without Shanxi, the Central Plains and Guanzhong are unstable, and Princess Pingyang led the army to garrison Niangzi Pass, the purpose is to prevent the enemy from entering Shanxi from here.

If Princess Pingyang really has no ability, how can Li Yuan rest assured that she will hand over the base camp to her daughter? Therefore, once Zhang Nan takes out Princess Pingyang to talk to this group of officials, this group of officials will definitely have no way at all.

If Wei Zheng is still in the Yushitai, then he may still compete with Zhang Nan, and now Wei Zheng is busy pulling the pigtails of the ministers of the court and the central government with Li Ke all day, and he can't remember that he was once a straightforward official.

This group of officials is not stupid, if in order to prevent Mingyue from entering the Air Force, the exploits of Princess Pingyang are too small, not only Comrade Lao Li will make a note of them in his heart, but Chai Shao, the prince of the state of Qian, who is standing not far from them, will definitely hate them for the rest of his life.

Even Cheng Biting Jin Wei Chi Gong and others didn't dare to comment on Princess Pingyang, let alone their group of small officials?

"Your Majesty, who said that women are inferior to men? We have to face up to this problem, Princess Pingyang is a good example, she exchanged blood and tears for the peace, for the status of the women, but now she is slandered by this group of unsuccessful officials, the minister's heart is not a taste. After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he made a heartbroken look.

When the officials heard Zhang Nan's words, their eyes widened one by one, when did they slander Princess Pingyang's exploits? They haven't said anything yet.

But obviously Chai Shao doesn't think so, now this matter is not simply a matter of Mingyue not joining the army and taking a post, this is the entire Yanguan group provoking himself and his deceased wife, how can this make Chai Shao tolerate it?

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that Pingyang had changed the Tang Dynasty's view of women a lot over the years, but I didn't expect that there were still people who used the ancestral system to plug everyone's mouths, and their hearts were punishable, the minister thought that this was a woman, as long as she made a meritorious achievement, no matter which aspect it was, she should still be rewarded, when Pingyang was alive, the rewards given to Pingyang by the Emperor were not all in accordance with the military system? Nor is it the same as other princesses. Chai Shao stood up and said.

Once it comes to Princess Pingyang, Chai Shao has to stand up and talk about it.

"Yes, that's the case, the third sister got more rewards than I did." Comrade Lao Li nodded and said, Comrade Lao Li said this, and he also reminded those officials on the side that Princess Pingyang's military exploits were even more than him.

Hearing Comrade Lao Li say this, the officials also had bitterness in their hearts and couldn't speak, obviously they didn't say a word about Princess Pingyang, but now they have become the target of public criticism.

"Yes, the emperor, the minister still remembers that when the rebels were just uprising, Princess Pingyang contacted the rebels against Sui everywhere. Princess Pingyang, with her superhuman courage and intelligence, recruited four or five rebel armies with considerable scale on the rivers and lakes in more than three months. The eldest grandson Wuji spoke.

"Yes, during this period, the former Sui constantly sent troops to attack Princess Pingyang. But the rebel army led by Princess Pingyang not only defeated every attack, but also broke through, successively capturing Huxian, Zhouzhi, Wugong, and Shiping. It can be said that the uprising in the early stage of my Tang Dynasty was completely the power of the princess alone, and it is not too much to do it. Fang Xuanling also stood up to support Princess Pingyang.

The old minister still remembered that the military discipline of the princess's army was very strict, and the princess must carry out her orders, and the whole army was in awe of her. In that chaotic years, the common people would refer to the princess as "Li Niangzi" and her army as the "Lady Army". How many people have to run thousands of miles away. Eldest Sun Wuji continued.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the princess's military intuition and insight can be called a genius, and General Qu once suffered several defeats under her. Isn't it, General Qu? After Wei Chigong finished speaking, he also arched his shoulders to Qu Tutong, who was standing beside him.

At that time, Qu Tutong was still a Sui general, and he was ordered to exterminate Princess Pingyang, but Princess Pingyang did not exterminate her, but even suffered defeat, and in the end Qu Tutong also stood in line very wisely.

When Wei Chigong said this, Qu Tutong also made a big red face, but Qu Tutong also let go, and said generously: "Indeed, the old man thinks that he is not as good as the princess, is it possible that you, a black man, think that you are better than the princess?" ”

"How could that be? How can I compare my merits with that of a princess? Wei Chigong also hurriedly said.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the words of the Duke of the Kingdom are reasonable, and the merit will be rewarded, whether it is a man or a woman, if everyone does not remember the hard work of my Datang and Princess Pingyang, then the minister feels that this is not only disrespectful to Princess Pingyang, but also disrespectful to the women who contributed to my Datang in the war. Can our soldiers throw their heads and spill their blood on the battlefield with peace of mind? Isn't it all the women's work? Zhang Nan also continued to arch the fire in a timely manner.

"The minister proposed that the deeds of Princess Pingyang be published one by one in the "Datang Daily", so that the people can re-acquaint themselves with my female generals of the Tang Dynasty, and it is best to change the name of Weize Pass to Niangzi Pass, so as to commemorate the achievements of Princess Pingyang who fought hard to defend the pass here."
