About Li Jing
Li Jing, courtesy name Yaoshi (藥師), posthumous name Jingwu (景武), was a Chinese military general, strategist, and writer who lived in the early Tang dynasty and was most active during the reign of Emperor Taizong. In 630, Li Jing defeated the Eastern Türks, led by Illig Qaghan, with just 3,000 cavalry soldiers in a surprise attack, allowing the Tang Empire to subjugate the Eastern Türks and reduce them to the status of a vassal under the Tang Empire. Li Jing and Li Shiji are considered the two most prominent early Tang generals.
