The Chevaliers is a 1994 Taiwanese television drama series produced by Young Pei-pei, first aired on Taiwan Television. Produced in conjunction with Hong Kong's TVB, it's believed to be the Taiwanese drama starring the most number of Hong Kong stars, like Damian Lau, Alex Man, Cecilia Yip, Maggie Shiu, Margie Tseng, Lau Dan, Eddie Kwan, and Lawrence Ng.

Like its main rival The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants produced by Chinese Television System, it was also (very loosely) based on the 19th-century novel The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants. As a result in June and July 1994, Taiwanese prime-time audiences could switch TV channels and still watch the same non-fictional characters like Zhan Zhao, Bai Yutang and Prince of Xiangyang portrayed by different actors.
