Who was Gao Kaidao?

He occupied the region centering Huairong and claimed the title of Prince of Yan, in alliance with Eastern Tujue. In 620, he briefly submitted to Emperor Gaozu of Tang and was bestowed the imperial surname of Li, but in 621 he rebelled against Tang and reasserted independence. In 624, his general Zhang Jinshu started a coup and he, realizing that the coup was about to succeed, committed suicide.
