Xu Shuzheng (traditional Chinese: 徐樹錚; pinyin: Xú Shùzhēng; Wade-Giles: Hsü Shu-Cheng) (1880 – 29 December 1925), was a Chinese warlord in Republican China. A subordinate and right-hand man of Duan Qirui, he was the leader of the Chinese military expedition that invaded Mongolia in 1919 and temporarily brought Mongolia under Chinese control. He lost his position after Duan fell from power in 1920, and was assassinated by fellow warlord Feng Yuxiang in 1925.

He had two sons who were active in Republic of China politics. His daughter, Xu Ying, married the linguist Li Fanggui.
