Li Sigong (李思恭) (d. 886?[1][2]), né Tuoba Sigong (拓拔思恭), formally the Duke of Xia (夏國公), was a Tangut warlord of the late Tang dynasty, who, for his contributions against the rebel Huang Chao, was installed as Dingnan Jiedushi (定難, headquartered in modern Yulin, Shaanxi) as its military governor (Jiedushi). The position was hereditary and passed down through his family, eventually becoming the fully independent Tangut state of Western Xia from the 11th to 13th centuries.
^New Book of Tang, vol. 221, part 1.
^The Dangxiang portion of the New Book of Tang volume on the Xiyu people indicated that Li Sigong died before he could launch an army against the pretender Li Yun, and as Li Yun claimed the Tang throne in 886 and was defeated around the new year 887, that would imply that Li Sigong died in 886, but that is not completely clear.
