General Li made a record in early Northern Song that he participated in almost every battle that the Song army fought against the Khitan Liao and the Tangut Xia, the two major military rivals of Song. Being the imperial relative of Emperor Taizong, General Li was delegated with full trust and power to command his army. It is worthy to note, as the field commander, General Li did not always follow the orders from his chief-commanders including the emperor. As a matter of fact, he did win some great battles but equally lost quite a number in his entire military career. Being one of the most senior commanders in the imperial troops and holding the status of imperial relative, he could not exempted from the power struggle inside and outside the court. When his younger sister, Empress Li, lost in the power struggle shortly after Emperor Song Taizong died, General Li was forced to retire at his age of 48. He had to wait for another 7 years until he regained the trust from the new emperor that allowing him to return to the battlefield.
