Biography
马万，澶州人。
旧五代史卷一百六（汉书） 列传三：
马万，澶州人也。少从军，善水游。唐庄宗与梁军对垒于河上，庄宗于德胜渡夹河立南北寨。会梁军急攻南寨，于中流联战舰以绝援路，昼夜攻城者三日，寨将氏延赏告急于庄宗。庄宗隔河望敌，无如之何，乃召人能水游破贼者。时万兄弟皆应募，遂潜行入南寨，往来者三，又助烧船舰，汴军遂退。由此升为水军小校，渐典禁军，遥领刺史，累迁奉国左厢都指挥使、泗州防御使。晋天福二年夏，范延光叛于邺，牙将孙锐率兵至黎阳，朝廷遣侍卫马军都指挥使白奉进领兵渡滑州，万亦预其行。时滑州节度使符彦饶潜通邺下，杀白奉进于牙署。万领本军兵士将助乱，会奉国右厢都指挥使卢顺密亦以兵至，谕以逆顺，万不得已，与顺密急趋公府，执彦饶生送阙下。朝廷即以万为滑州节度使，而卢顺密酬之甚浅。居无何，晋高祖稍知其事，即以顺密为泾州兵马留后，渐薄于万。万镇邓州，未几罢镇，授上将军，以目疾致仕。乾祐三年四月卒。辍视朝一日。
