李宪 / Li Xian (Lujiang, Eastern Han)

Overview

Li Xian / 李宪 is the Lujiang-area rebel target in Hanji 690, distinct from other same-pinyin Li Xian pages. The source gives him a compact campaign role: 光武帝刘秀 reaches Shouchun, sends 马成 and other commanders against him, mobilizes troops from four commanderies, and has Han forces surround him at Shu County in September.

Current Profile

The current evidence treats Li Xian as a regional military target rather than a fully profiled ruler. His importance in Hanji 690 is structural: the episode shows Liu Xiu managing multiple unsettled fronts at once, including Peng Chong, Dong Xian, Qin Feng, Zhang Feng, and Li Xian.

Li Xian’s branch also illustrates the material scale of post-restoration campaigning. The Han side does not merely send one general; it assigns Ma Cheng with several commanders and draws on Kuaiji, Danyang, Jiujiang, and Lu’an commandery troops before the siege at Shu County.

Key Characteristics

• Lujiang-area rebel target in Jianwu 4.
• Same-pinyin figure disambiguated from other Li Xian pages.
• Opponent of Liu Xiu’s Shouchun-stage campaign planning.
• Target of Ma Cheng and multi-commandery troop mobilization.
• Besieged at Shu County in the source’s September notice.

Evidence

• Campaign order: Hanji 690 says Liu Xiu sends Ma Cheng and other commanders to attack Li Xian.
• Mobilized forces: Hanji 690 says troops are drawn from Kuaiji, Danyang, Jiujiang, and Lu’an.
• Siege notice: Hanji 690 says Han forces surround Li Xian at Shu County in September.

Qualifications

This is a source-bounded identity page. It does not settle Li Xian’s title, full territorial base, earlier career, or outcome after the Shu County siege. The route is semantically suffixed to avoid collision with 李暹, 李贤, and other same-pinyin names.

What Changed

• Created a disambiguated Lujiang/Eastern Han page for 李宪 / Li Xian.
