Zhangxin Qaghan (Chinese: 彰信可汗; lit. 'Manifesting sincerity') was the eleventh ruler of Uyghurs. His personal name was Yaoluoge Hu (藥羅葛胡). He succeeded his uncle in 833.[1]

Reign

Chinese records state that he sent an embassy lead by Princess Taihe to Tang, accompanied with 7 women horse-archers and two Shatuo captives on 16 June 835.[2]

His peace policy with China proved him an unpopular ruler.[3] This led to a rebellion in 839 by the Sogdian official An Yunhe (安允合) and Uyghur minister Chai Lei (柴勒). Qaghan was able to defeat and kill them, but a subsequent battle against another Uyghur official, general Jueluowu (掘羅勿) along with the Shatuo chief Zhuye Chixin was lost. Zhangxin committed suicide following the battle.[4] He was succeeded by Qasar Qaghan.
