Chen Xi (died November or December 196 BC^[1]) was a Chinese rebel leader against the first Han emperor Liu Bang (posthumously the "Emperor Gaozu" or "High Ancestor").

^ Vol.12 of Zizhi Tongjian placed Chen Xi's death in the 10th month of the 12th year of Liu Bang's reign (including his tenure as King of Han). The month corresponds to 12 Nov to 10 Dec 196 BCE in the proleptic Julian calendar. In the modified Zhuanxu calendar used during the era, the 12th year of Liu Bang's reign starts from 12 Nov 196 BCE and ends on 01 Nov 195 BCE in the proleptic Julian calendar.
