Trieu
Thi Trinh also known was a female warrior in 3rd century Vietnam who managed to,
for a time, successfully resist the Chinese during their occupation of Vietnam.
She is described as the Vietnamese "Joan of Arc".
Trieu Thi Trinh
was born in Son Trung Village in Trieu Son District, Thanh Hoa province (situated
in today's northern Vietnam) on the 2nd October AD 225. She was orphaned at a
young age and lived with her brother and his wife until she was twenty years old.
It was said that she was treated like a slave in their home.
When she was twenty, she could no longer watch China disrespect Vietnam as she witnessed the cruelty the Chinese inflicted upon her people, and the abuse which was synonymous with sinicisation. She fled into the jungle and set up her own military camp where she went on to amass an army of at least a thousand men and women soldiers.
Trieu
Thi Trinh managed to successfully liberate an area of Vietnam which she claimed
as her territory and from there set up her own administration. By the time Th?
Trinh was 23 she had defeated Chinese advances on thirty separate occasions. She
managed to defend her territory for several months and it was said that she rode
into battle on the back of an elephant, clad in golden armour carrying a sword
in each hand. A quote from the Chinese at the times goes: "It would be easier
to fight a tiger, than to fight the Lady Queen."
However in AD 248 the Chinese managed to defeat Trieu Thi Trinh forces and recaptured the territory which she had previously liberated from them. To protect her honour and to elude death at the hands of the Chinese, Trieu Thi Trinh committed suicide by drowning herself in a nearby river. There is another version of her suicide, saying that she was trampled to death by elephants.
The stories of theTrieu Thi
Trinh and of other famous women warriors, the Trung Sisters, are cited by some
historians as hints that Vietnamese society before Sinicization was a matriarchal
one, where there are no obstacles for women in assuming leadership roles.
Trieu
Thi Trinh is a greatly celebrated Vietnamese heroine and many streets are named
after her in Vietnamese cities. She also has a national holiday dedicated to her,
and a part of Hanoi with her name.
Some legends claim this feminist hero was a nine-foot tall giantess who rode to battle V the Chinese in the third century A.D. on a huge elephant with giant breasts laid over her shoulders.
She led into combat in golden armor, with a sword in each hand,. She won 30 plus battles against the Chinese before drowning herself in the face of surrender.
In legend her breats were 3-4 foot long, so thats either 3 foot long breasts or 4 foot long breasts,
Her voice was as loud as a temple bell, and put al male enemies to fear,
She was able to eat a bushel of rice and walk 1,500 miles in a single day.
She could bathe in the blood of enemies, but did not even like a tiny bit of dirt.
So a Chinese general made his troops
kick up lots of dust while naked, do making her flee in disgust so her small army
lost. She then after sadly killing herself haunted the Chinese general. Her spirity
caused a plague only beaten by placing wooden phalluses above doors .She appeared
in the dreams of Vietnamese revolutionaries,
Her quotes I only want to ride
the wind and walk the waves, slay the big whale of the Eastern sea, clean up our
frontiers, and save the people from drowning. Why should I imitate others, bow
my head, stoop over, and be a slave? Why resign myself to menial housework?
If she existed she would be strong enough to lift a man in each hand.
Just imagine her, and just imagine she looked like she does in those pictures, she would be incredible.
