General Zhao of Pingyang was the daughter of Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang dynasty. She wed Chai Shao, the son of the Duke of Julu. Li Yuan in the midst of planning a rebellion against the emperor, contacted Pingyang and Chai Shao to warn them to escape the capital and return to Taiyuan. The couple traveled separately to aid their success and Pingyang initially went into hiding. She then paid and persuaded several hundred men to follow her to rise in support of her father. She persuaded 4 more regions to follow her before attacking and capturing nearby cities amassing 70,000 men. She met with Chai and they separately commanded armies to successfully start the Tang dynasty, hers being known as the "Army of the Lady." She became Princess Pingyang.
Though she was never recorded as having been involved in another battle, she received a grand military funeral fit for a high general. When officials objected, Emperor Gaozu stated, "As you know, the princess mustered an army that helped us overthrow the Sui dynasty. She participated in many battles, and her help was decisive in founding the Tang dynasty. ... She was no ordinary woman."
