Zuo Baogui (Chinese: 左寶貴; 1837, Shandong province – 1894, Pyongyang) was a Hui Muslim general of the Qing Dynasty who fought in the First Sino-Japanese War. He was killed in action during the Battle of Pyongyang in 1894. It was reported that the Muslim troops under his command fought well until his death in an artillery strike. A memorial was later constructed in his honor.[1][2]
