Chen Huancheng (Chinese: 陳化成; pinyin: Chén Tiānhuá; 1776–1842) was a 19th-century military leader of Qing China.

[1] He served as the provincial military leader in Jiangnan Province before being killed in the First Opium War.

Unlike some of his contemporaries, he rose from the ranks of the army to a command position without taking the customary Wu Keju Imperial Examinations.

On 16 June 1842, a British fleet sailed up the Yangtze and began to bombard Huacheng's position at Wusong.

[3] While commanding the Chinese fort there, Chen was killed by either naval artillery or in hand-to-hand combat with the British.
