Li Anquan

Li Anquan was a prominent general of the late Lian Dynasty. He was born an orphan, and eventually gained the favour of a soon-to-be prominent general of the late Cixi era. The general was Sun Ping, then a lieutenant that guarded the borders of the western regions of the Hui Dynasty. Li would soon be taken into the Sun's custody, as they learn military tactics together. Li is rumoured to have read Sun Tzu's "Art of War" after he learned that it was in the general's possession. He would eventually go on to replace Sun after his death of old age.

Li would start his military career at the age of only 14, becoming a soldier of Sun's regiment.
