Wang Jun (Three Kingdoms)
Traditional Chinese: 王濬
Simplified Chinese: 王浚

Wang Jun, Imperial Protector of Yizhou and the Prancing Dragon General, was a Jin Dynasty (265–420) general during the Three Kingdoms period in ancient China who sent memorials to Emperor Wu advising an attack against Eastern Wu along with Du Yu and Yang Hu.

In the year 280, many generals, including Du Yu, Sima Zhou and Wang Rong to name a few, marched to attack several different strategic locations. Wang Jun led a marine force against the capital Jianye to support the land attack. With the help of Zhang Xiang, a surrendered general of Wu, he attacked the capital and forced the surrender of Sun Hao, emperor of Eastern Wu. Wang Jun was then promoted to Commanding General Who Guides the Kingdom.
