Ma Zhan’ao (1830–1886) (Chinese: Chinese: 马占鳌) was a Chinese Muslim General who defected to the Qing Dynasty in 1872 during the Dungan revolt along with his General Ma Qianling and General Ma Haiyan who served under him during the revolt. He first sent Ma Chun (Ma Jun) to negotiate a surrender with General Zuo, but Zuo suspected a ruse. Ma then sent his son, Ma Anliang, to negotiate.[2] He then assisted General Zuo Zongtang in crushing the rebel Muslims.[3][4] In 1877 he and Ma Qianling expelled Muslim rebels who refused to give up from the hills surrounding Hezhou.[5] He had 2 sons, Ma Anliang and Ma Guoliang.
