Zhang Yichao (Chinese: 張議潮 or 張義朝; pinyin: Zhāng Yìcháo; 799[1]−872[2]) was a Chinese military general and politician of the Tang dynasty who was a resident of Sha Prefecture (Chinese: 沙州; pinyin: Shāzhōu, in modern Dunhuang, Gansu). When the Tibetan Empire plunged into civil war, he led a rebellion, capturing several cities and reverted the area's allegiance to the Tang dynasty. He subsequently conquered the Hexi Corridor and governed it as the military commissioner (jiedushi) of Guiyi Circuit (headquartered in modern Dunhuang) under nominal authority of the Tang emperors.
^The Chinese Wikipedia article on Zhang Yichao gave his birth year as 799, citing as its source the Biography of Zhang Yichao contained in the Additions to the Book of Tang (補唐書) by Luo Zhenyu; an edited excerpt, with his death age indicated as 74 (by East Asian reckoning) can be found at: http://wyw.5156edu.com/html/z5694m1509j4540.html.
