Wang Ping (d. 248) was a Wei officer who defected to the Kingdom of Shu during the Three Kingdoms era of China. He is a figure both in actual Chinese history, and in the historic novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
During the Battle of Hanzhong he opposed the general Xu Huang and defected to Shu. He fought well for Shu under Ma Su in the southern campaigns against the Nanman forces and at the Battle of Jieting as well. At the Battle of Jie Ting, it was Wang Ping who tried to dissuade Ma Su from camping on the hill. Unfortunately, Ma Su paid no heed to him, and Wang Ping established a stockade at the base of the hill with 3,000 troops, in order to help Ma Su if there was danger. When Sima Yi attacked, however, Wang Ping's 3,000 soldiers were not enough to render Ma Su help. In the later years of Shu, Wang Ping became a central figure and an important general to the kingdom.
