[1] On the French invasion of Russia in 1812, he unsuccessfully tried to enter the Akhtyrsky Hussars [ru], but had to satisfy himself with being a volunteer on the staff of 6 Corps (commanded by Dmitry Dokhturov), in which his brother Ivan Petrovich was serving as chief quartermaster.

In 1816 Liprandi was appointed adjutant to General Fedor Talyzin [ru], head of the 16th Division; in 1818 (already at the rank of captain) he was transferred to the Life Guards Grenadier Regiment.

Brilliantly fulfilling this assignment, he was sent to Galaţi in order to find out whether there were suitable vessels for the transport of troops in the planned expedition to Isaccea, another mission he successfully executed.

In 1830 he was put in charge of the Satunovskiy Quarantine, and on the outbreak of cholera in the Novorossiysk region [ru] was appointed chief commander of the fortress of Kinburn and Ochakov.

Liprandi commanded the Eletski Infantry Regiment [ru], which participated in the war against the November Uprising in Poland, being first in the unit of General Theodor von Rüdiger for operations against Józef Dwernicki, then fighting at the siege of the fortress at Zamość, where he fought with distinction and was made a colonel.

At the end of hostilities Liprandi proceeded to implement reforms he had already started beforehand to improve soldiers' living conditions, which he developed with generals Sabaneev, Kiselev and Vorontsov.

After two years the Eletskii Regiment became so outstanding in its performance that on 28 January Liprandi was appointed aide-de-camp to the Tsar, and in 1835 was granted estates in the Polish kingdom [ru] .
