Lu Wan
Lu Wan (; died 194 BC) was a Chinese
vassal king of the early
Han dynasty. A close friend of
Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han dynasty, he fought on Liu's side as a general during the rebellions against the
Qin dynasty, the
Chu–Han Contention against Liu's rival
Xiang Yu, and against other hostile vassal kings in the early part of Liu's reign as emperor. For his contributions to the establishment of the Han dynasty, Lu Wan was made a vassal king – King of Yan () – by Liu Bang in 202 BC. In 195 BC, sensing that Liu Bang had doubts about his loyalty, Lu Wan fled and defected to the
Xiongnu, who made him King of Donghu (), and lived among them for about a year until his death.
