* FatalFlaw: {{Pride}}. He never saw the Huns as a real threat and believed that China's victory was already good as sealed from the get-go. Despite Chi Fu's brown-nosing, General Li's excuse of a "strategy plan" to combat the Hun advance was actually very basic, poorly thought-out, and completely dependent on the likelihood that his own troops have the higher numbers + firepower. [[spoiler:It didn't matter, as the Huns were able to deduce his plan, and the general and his forces suffered the ultimate price for his arrogance by being [[CurbstompBattle completely wiped out]].]]

Added DiffLines:
* {{Nepotism}}: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. It is implied that General Li has pulled some strings to give his son Shang a rank of command, citing his "impressive military lineage" (i.e. his own) as a factor behind Shang's promotion. However, he is clearly sincerely confident in his son's capability to lead, and Shang ultimately proves himself more than worthy of the rank on his own merits.
Added DiffLines:
* TemptingFate: Before leaving with his troops, General Li proudly remarks that the next time he and Shang see each other, they will be drinking a toast to China's victory at the Imperial Palace. [[spoiler:Little does he realize that he won't live to see the end of the war, and that this is in fact the ''last'' time he'll see his son.]]

* SmallRoleBigImpact: Regardless of whether he's actually BornLucky or not, it's Cri-Kee (at Mushu's behest) who type-writes the forged military order that sends Shang, Mulan, and their whole army to the aid of the General's army. This leads them straight to the destroyed village and the Hun's army... who in turn are (mostly) slaughtered by Mulan's avalanche trick, sparing them from dying in a hopelessly-outnumbered massacre.

[[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that he is the capable son of a legendary commander, and the Chinese army was quickly losing other suitable leaders to the Huns. Also, Shang was mainly responsible for ''training'' the new recruits and then join up with his father and the main Imperial forces later. [[spoiler:After the general and his squad are wiped out he's put in charge of the military.]]

* VagueAge: Downplayed, he's clearly older then the rest of the main cast but other that it's rather hard to pinpoint, his voice actor was ''seventy'' when the movie came out, but Chi Fu has no problem traveling and chasing after the army recruits as he tries to keep them in line. However his position was something that he probably had to slowly work towards for years and his overall attitude and beliefs give off a very traditional energy. He could be anywhere between a very old fashioned forty year old or a very healthy seventy year old.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: No one in the Chinese Army seems to regard Chi Fu with any respect, from the chain of command down to the lowly recruits. General Li gives him a DisapprovingLook (essentially ordering him to shut up) when he tries to interject during Li and Shang's meeting, Shang openly detests him, and the trainees mock him every chance they get without fear of repercussion. It's telling that when he tries to join in while the troops are all having a lake bath, they kick him out and humiliate him for good measure.

Mulan, not as indoctrinated into how things 'should' be done, is the only who comes up with the winning strategy against the Hun army.

* AmbiguouslyGay: Loosely implied, since the soldiers assume his "girl back home" [[MamasBoy is his mother]] and doesn't show much appreciation for women. Granted, that's not particularly special in this period, but with Chi Fu it's significant. Though it's highly possible, based on his position and the time in which the film is set, that he is a [[EunuchsAreEvil eunuch]].
