Song Yi (宋義; died 207 BC) was a Chinese rebel who participated in the rebellions to overthrow the Qin dynasty between 209 and 207 BC. He served as an adviser to King Huai II, the nominal leader of the rebel group seeking to restore the Chu state of the Warring States period, and was appointed as a general. In 207 BC, prior to the Battle of Julu, he was accused of treason and killed by Xiang Yu, who took control of the Chu rebel group's armed forces from him.
