Gao Xianzhi (Chinese: 高仙芝; died 756) was a Tang general of Korean descent who served during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong in the 8th century.
In 756, Gao Xianzhi and fellow general Feng Changqing made a stand at Tong Pass against An Lushan's An Lushan Rebellion. This was a heavily fortified, strategic chokepoint on the road to the capital of Chang'an from which they could protect An Lushan's westward march from Luoyang. However, An had allies in the Tang court in the form of Chancellor Yang Guozhong and the official Bian Lingcheng—all three were members of the shadowy organization which later came to be known as the Templar Order. Yang and Bian fabricated false charges against Gao and Feng, with Bian personally executing the two generals.[1]
They were replaced by the Tang court with Geshu Han, who was then pressed into a suicide attack against An Lushan's forces. The deaths of these three generals sabotaged the defence of Tong Pass and led to the fall of Chang'an.[1]
