Nicknamed "Striking Hawk", he ranks 11th among the 36 Heavenly Spirits, the first third of the 108 Stars of Destiny. BackgroundThe novel describes Li Ying as a unique-looking man with eyes like those of a hawk, a head like a tiger's, arms like an ape's and a waist like a wolf's. He dons a red robe, rides a white stallion and wields a steel spear when he goes to battle. He is best known for his skill in throwing daggers, which he flings with accuracy even from a considerable distance. He is nicknamed "Striking Hawk" chiefly for this skill. Li Ying is from Yunzhou (鄆州), Zhongshan Prefecture (中山府), which is around present-day Dongping County, Shandong. He is the master of the Li Family Village, one of the three villages on Lone Dragon Ridge (獨龍崗). The other two are the Zhu and Hu family villages. A wealthy squire with many servants and a small militia, he is gregarious in personality, and generous in helping the needy. Battle of the Zhu Family VillageAfter Shi Qian is captured by the Zhu Family Village for causing trouble there, his companions Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu flee to the neighbouring Li Family Village. They run into Li Ying's steward, Du Xing, who owes Yang Xiong a favour for helping him before. Du Xing brings them to his master Li Ying, who sympathises with them upon hearing their story. He writes a letter to the Zhus and politely asks them to give him face by accepting his apology (on behalf of Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu) and releasing Shi Qian. However, the Zhus not only refuse to release Shi Qian, but also hurl insults at Li Ying. An infuriated Li Ying then leads some men to the Zhu Village to challenge the Zhus. Zhu Biao fires an arrow which hits Li Ying in the arm and causes him to fall off horseback. Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu rush forward and manage to save Li Ying. Joining LiangshanYang Xiong and Shi Xiu travel to Liangshan Marsh to seek help from the outlaw band there. Liangshan's chief Chao Gai sends Song Jiang to lead Liangshan forces to attack the Zhu Family Village. It is a tough battle that takes the outlaws three offensives to defeat the Zhu forces and take the village. Li Ying does not participate in the fighting because he does not want to be associated with the Liangshan outlaws so he gives the excuse that he needs to rest at home and nurse his injured arm. Song Jiang, however, wants Li Ying to join the Liangshan outlaw band. He instructs Xiao Rang and others to impersonate law enforcers, go to the Li Family Village, and pretend to arrest Li Ying and Du Xing for collaborating with outlaws. Along the way, the Liangshan outlaws "ambush" the law enforcers and "rescue" Li Ying and Du Xing. Although Li Ying initially feels grateful to the outlaws for rescuing him, he turns furious when he realises that it was actually a ruse to get him to join the outlaws. Nevertheless, Song Jiang manages to convince him to put aside his wealth and prestige, and join the outlaw band to "deliver justice on Heaven's behalf". Campaigns and later lifeLi Ying is appointed one of the two chief accountants in charge of Liangshan's income and stocks after the 108 Stars of Destiny come together in what is called the "Grand Assembly". He follows the Liangshan heroes on their campaigns against the Liao invaders and rebel forces on Song territory after they received amnesty from Emperor Huizong. He is one of the few Liangshan heroes who survive all the campaigns. The emperor appoints Li Ying as an official in recognition of his contributions. After holding office for six months, Li Ying hears that Chai Jin has resigned and returned home, so he feigns illness and resigns too. He and Du Xing go back to their village at Lone Dragon Ridge and spend the rest of their lives in luxury and comfort. References
