Chang Xi (Chinese: 昌豨; pinyin: Chāng Xī; died 206 CE), also recorded as Chang Ba (昌霸) or Chang Wu (昌務), was a minor warlord and former member of the “Taishan bandits’’ who became notorious for repeatedly rebelling against the warlord Cao Cao during the waning years of the Eastern Han dynasty. Captured twice—first persuaded to surrender by Zhang Liao in 201 and later seized by Yu Jin in 206—he was executed under Cao Cao’s strict order that any enemy who surrendered after being surrounded was not to be spared.
