Huchuquan was the last chanyu () of the Southern Xiongnu during the late Eastern Han dynasty and Three Kingdoms period of China. He was a younger brother of the chanyu in exile, Yufuluo.

== History == After Yufuluo died in 195, Huchuquan succeeded his as chanyu but remained in exile around Hedong Commandery due to the Southern Xiongnu rebels that had ousted his family from their domain. Previously, Yufuluo had come into conflict with the warlord, Cao Cao but appears to have surrendered just before to his death. Shortly after his ascension, his uncle, Qubei led their forces to aid Emperor Xian of Han in escaping from Chang'an to Luoyang, where he was welcomed by Cao Cao. Qubei later helped escort the emperor to Cao Cao's base at Xuchang.
