Guo Chongtao
Guo Chongtao () (died February 20, 926), courtesy name Anshi (), formally the Duke of Zhao Commandery (), was a major general of the Chinese Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period state Later Tang (and Later Tang's predecessor state Jin). He served as the chief of staff for Later Tang's founding emperor Emperor Zhuangzong of Later Tang (Li Cunxu) from before the time of Later Tang's establishment and was instrumental in Later Tang's destruction of its rivals Later Liang and Former Shu, but came under suspicion after Former Shu's destruction. Despite that suspicion, Emperor Zhuangzong did not initially intend to kill him, but Emperor Zhuangzong's wife Empress Liu issued an order herself and had him executed.
