Han Sui () (140s[2] - June or July 215[3]), courtesy name Wenyue, originally named Han Yue, was a military general and minor warlord who lived during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China.[1] For most of his life, he was active in Liang Province (涼州; covering parts of present-day Shaanxi and Gansu) and was involved in several rebellions against the Han government and the warlord Cao Cao.

  2. ^ The Dianlüe recorded that Han Sui was in his 70s when he died. (《典略》曰:遂字文约,....至是乃死,年七十馀矣。) Dianlüe annotation in Sanguozhi vol.01. Thus by calculation, his birth year should be in the 140s.
  3. ^ According to Cao Cao's biography in Sanguozhi, Han Sui was killed in the 5th month of the 20th year of the Jian'an era of Liu Xie's reign. This corresponds to 15 June to 13 July 215 on the Julian calendar. [(建安二十年)五月,公攻屠之。西平、金城诸将麹演、蒋石等共斩送韩遂首。] Sanguozhi vol.01
