Nguyễn Xí ( chữ Hán: 阮熾; 1397–1465), or Lê Xí, was a general, politician, and public servant who served as a minister for four generations of rulers during the late Lê dynasty of Đại Việt, a tributary state of China in what is now northern Vietnam.
He grew up while Đại Việt was under the Fourth Era of Northern Domination under the Ming dynasty of China and participated in Lam Sơn uprising under Lê Lợi. He is considered a historical military genius of Vietnam.
