Chu Yupu (Chinese: 褚玉璞; 1887–1929) was a Chinese general who served under Yuan Shikai and later Zhang Zongchang. In 1921 he entered the service of Fengtian Province warlord Zhang Zuolin. He first fought against Sun Yat-sen's Kuomintang forces in August 1913. He became leader of the Fengtian clique's Zhili Army and military governor of Zhili province in 1926. During the Northern Expedition he fought against the Guominjun forces of Feng Yuxiang and the National Revolutionary Army of Chiang Kai-shek. In March 1929, he was captured by his former subordinate Liu Zhennian and executed by firing squad on September 4, 1929.
