The 114th Division was a military formation of the People's Volunteer Army (Chinese People's Volunteers (CPV) or Chinese Communist Forces (CCF)) during the Korean War with a standard strength of approximately 10,000 men. It was a component of the 38th Army, consisting of the 340th, 341st, and 342nd Regiments.[1]

It fought the Turkish Brigade at the Battle of Wawon, November 27-29, 1950.

The formation was still active form many years with the 38th Group Army in the Shenyang Military Region, as the 114th Mechanized Infantry Division.[2] Over the course of the 2003 reductions cycle, Dennis Blasko estimates that the division was dropped from the force.[3]
