Yelü Xiuge


Yelü Xiuge was an important Khitan general and politician in ancient China's Liao Dynasty. He commanded a disciplined army and fought the Song forces for several decades, taking care to not harm any innocent individual. The History of Liao records that adults in Song Dynasty would yell "Here comes Yuyue !" to stop children from crying.
Yelü Xiuge's tomb was discovered in 2002 in Fuxin, Liaoning Province of China.
