Speaking of Ma Chao, I believe many people feel worthless for him. why? Quite simply, Ma Chao's life is actually very absurd. There is a record in "Dianlue" : "When Ma Chao's father Ma Teng and brother Ma Xiu were both controlled by Cao Cao, he even joined Han Sui to fight against Cao. Didn't he personally put his old father on a charcoal fire? Z3z
Ma Chao's brainless behavior completely angered Cao Cao. In his anger, Cao Cao killed Ma Teng, Ma's body, and all the Ma clan people could kill. Later, when he defeated Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, he also took Ma Chao by the way. His wife was also taken prisoner. The enemy who fell into Cao Cao’s hands must have only one dead end. Cao Cao basically wiped out Ma Chao’s three clans. If the horses were not running fast, even Ma Dai would not want to survive!
From the brief analysis above, it can be seen that Ma Chao abandoned his father first, then abandoned his wife and children, and finally ended up in a tragic ending with his father’s death and the death of his brother. Although Ma Chao had previously abandoned his father in Tongguan. Cao Cao was very embarrassed to kill, but in the end it was Li Kui who only worked for three minutes. It was just for a moment! Later, after losing his three families, even his wife and children were brutally killed. In fact, Ma Chao at this time was also very pitiful.
Ma Chao is already a 39-year-old man, but even so, Ma Chao can still tie Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei’s bravery was well-known in the Three Kingdoms period. Moreover, Ma Chao, before that, had even tied Cao Cao’s beloved general. Xu Chu. Even Cao Cao called Ma Chao a good horse in the world. If Ma Chao is not eliminated, I am afraid that he will not even have a quiet place to bury him after his death.
But strangely, Ma Chao went to Liu Bei in just 7 years. At the age of 46, Ma Chao died bizarrely! What was the cause of death of Ma Chao at the age of 46? In theory, the 46-year-old is far below the average life of an ancient general. Ma Chao has excellent physical fitness. Under normal circumstances, a cold is the root cause It can be cured without taking medicine. In addition, is Ma Chao a master who has no money to see a doctor? Generally speaking, Ma Chao's death is certainly not caused by the natural aging of the body. Z3z
wants to find out the reason, in fact, from Ma Chao Before and after turning to Liu Bei, one can tell a little bit about what he has experienced. First of all, Ma Chao fought against Zhang Fei under Jia Meng Pass, and the two were inseparable. Liu Bei saw that this Ma Chao was indeed a talent. So he told Wei Yan not to let go of cold arrows. He planned to let Zhuge Liang find a way to draw Ma Chao over. Later, Zhuge Liang took advantage of his interest, and Ma Chao could not stand the scare, so he went straight to Liu Bei. The
generation of heroes went to Liu Bei in such an unhonorable way, and He was the only lord he could choose. Why Ma Chao could only choose Liu Bei at the time? Very simple, at that time, only Sun Quan, Liu Bei, and Cao Cao remained. The family was tied up. Of course, Ma Chao could not defect to Cao Cao.
At this time, Ma Chao could only choose Liu Bei and Sun Quan. Sun Quan was Liu Bei’s eldest brother-in-law (although Mrs. Sun has returned to Jiangdong at this time) Let’s not mess with the generations.) Even so, Sun Quan married a younger sister at that time It was given to Liu Bei in order to put him under house arrest and to make him lose his fighting spirit. However, the result was that he lost his wife and broke down, which made Zhou Yu very faceless. It can be said that Sun Quan is Liu Bei's enemy.
At this time, Ma Chao is in Hanzhong, and sooner or later this site will belong to Liu Bei. Needless to say, Zhang Lu either left, or was collected by Cao Cao or Liu Bei. In addition, even if Ma Chao went thousands of miles to vote for Sun Quan, Sun Quan might not be rare for him. After all, there are too many people under Sun Quan, and Ma Chao at this time, the reputation of abandoning his father and abandoning his wife has long been passed to Soochow. Do you think his Sun Quan can accept such Ma Chao?
In summary, Ma Chao at that time could only go to Liu Bei. Ma Chao's past was not glorious, so why did Liu Bei take him in? In fact, this is related to Ma Chao's death! When Ma Chao defected to Liu Bei, he was only 39 years old. At this age, whether it was force? The character and IQ are at their peak.
"Three Kingdoms: Ma Chao Biography": First, the leader will send people to welcome the super, and the super general will go to the city. The city is terrified, and Zhang is the chief inspector. Judging from this record, Ma Chao's prestige and force have shocked the world. Even Liu Zhang, the overlord at the time, heard that Ma Chao had come to attack the city himself, so he was ready to admit counsel and gave up resistance!
ADIn 219, Ma Chao helped Liu Bei instigate nearly 10,000 people from the Di tribe to respond to Liu Bei, so Liu Beicai won the battle of Hanzhong. Later, Ma Chao was the first to propose that Liu Bei be king. In fact, it can be seen from Ma Chao’s actions that Ma Chao and Liu Bei both get what they need. Liu Bei needs a powerful general. Of course, it is best to have an antagonism with Cao Cao! This is so convenient to work hard for it! As for Ma Chao, what he wants is very simple, find a big tree, take the opportunity to kill Cao Cao, in order to avenge his family's blood!
However, what is strange is that Ma Chao suddenly died strangely without revenge! Among them, what is the real reason? As mentioned above, Ma Chao has no problem with his physical fitness. Even if he suffers a serious illness, he will not be killed by his "Jin Ma Chao" ! So, what is the real cause of Ma Chao's death? From a comprehensive analysis, there are three reasons.
For one, Ma Chao, as Liu Bei's hero, could not get the corresponding rewards, and felt aggrieved.
For Liu Bei, Ma Chao was a great hero, but when Liu Bei took down Yizhou, he let Ma Chao supervise him, which is about 20 miles away from Chengdu. Moreover, Liu Bei did not send Ma Chao a single soldier. To put it bluntly, he gave Ma Chao a fake officer with no real power! If an official like this is replaced by the old Ma Chao, he doesn't care at all.
However, at this time he is almost 40 years old. He has to care about his family and make long-term plans. He no longer has the conditions to let him go. Although Liu Bei did a little bit innocent, Ma Chao could only bear it, because at this point, Ma Chao had no choice.
Second, Ma Chao was forced to lose his nature, and slowly became a common man.
As the saying goes, "Qingshan is easy to change, and character is hard to change" , but this is an accident for Ma Chao! Before, Ma Chao didn't care about his father and his wife. This kind of behavior was completely like that of a big deed, regardless of the trivial, regardless of small profits, and unscrupulous style!
However, when Ma Chao defected to Liu Bei, he became a good man. Even he is not as good as a common man, from his previous strong character, he has evolved into a obedience, and he has no desire to compete.
Shanyang Gongzai Ji said: Super cause is so thick and prepared, and remarks, often call preparations, Guan Yu is angry, please kill them. This is the record of Guan Yu's request to Liu Bei to kill Ma Chao. Guan Yu wanted to kill Ma Chao because Ma Chao had no courtesy with his elder brother Liu Bei. At that time, Ma Chao directly called Liu Bei a brother. The second master couldn't stand it at all, even Zhang Fei, who was sitting on the side, wanted to end up with Ma Chao's character.
It's just that Liu Bei resisted. prepared and said: "People who are poor come to me, Qing waits to be angry, and kill them by calling me, why is it shown in the world!" , Liu Bei still used the famous saying of his family and business, based on the word "righteousness". Dissuaded, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei wanted to get rid of Ma Chao's idea. However, this matter is absolutely endless!
Liu Bei asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to do something for him. In the coming meeting, please go beyond, feather and fly with a rod and knife, stand upright, look beyond the seat, not see feather, fly, see it straight, it is shocked, so he stopped calling for preparation. Since then, Ma Chao has become a gentle little sheep. It is respectful and respectful to Liu Bei, and has lost the heart of fighting against Zhang Fei back then! Ma Chao, the whole person, from the outside to the inside, has undergone tremendous changes. In other words, Ma Chao was forced to lose his nature, and he has gradually become a common man.
Third, there is no hope for revenge, and there is too much pressure in the heart. The third reason for
is actually for Ma Chao, it is a must and a mission that must be completed! However, after he followed Liu Bei, Liu Bei's strength was far less than Cao Cao, and even though Liu Bei won the Hanzhong First Battle, Cao Cao's overall strength was not affected much.
And Hanzhong has become an empty city. Cao Cao had already swept away Hanzhong’s population and money when he withdrew! For Ma Chao, it seems that there is no hope of revenge! Although at this time, I found a good backer, Liu Bei's development also needs time and energy! In this way, his hope of revenge for Ma Chao is even more slim.
"Tianlue": He pounded his chest and vomited blood and said: "Close the door to a hundred mouths, once the same fate, the two people will congratulate the evil?" From this record, can be clearIt can be seen that Ma Chao defected to Liu Bei for revenge. Think about it, from the performance of Ma Chao, he is not completely a ruthless and unrighteous person, otherwise he would not vomit blood! At this time, his tribe family had been cut to death by Cao Cao, and this time his brother-in-law came to congratulate Ma Chao on the New Year. Isn't this a mess?
Of course, judging from Ma Chao's performance at the time, he was always worried about revenge. At the same time, Ma Chao's position in Shuhan is not as good as Guan Zhang, Zhao, Zhuge Liang and others, and he has no backing. How to do? I believe he has no other choice but to drink some boring wine! Later, Ma Chao married his youngest daughter to Liu Bei's son. This is considered a relationship with Liu Bei, and at the same time, his status has improved! But Ma Chao at this time has already changed a person!
has been transformed from a dignified hero to a mortal. Moreover, you must protect yourself at all times, otherwise your life may not be guaranteed! At that time, Peng Yi was alienated, so Peng Yi held a grudge against Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others. So he went to Ma Chao for a drink in private. However, Ma Chao at this time told Liu Bei what Peng Yi had said.
At that time, Peng Yi suggested that Ma Chao should take Liu Bei's site and let Chao be the external response. Peng Yi was the internal response, which is enough to set Chengdu! Ma Chao, his expression is very real after listening! The super-jailed brigade returned to the country, often with fear and fear, and was shocked when he heard the words , but did not answer. After , Ma Chao reported it to Liu Bei without fail. Later, Peng Yi was imprisoned to death!
As mentioned above, "always fearful", in fact, it can be seen that Liu Bei is definitely not as simple as it seems, and Ma Chao, from beginning to end, has completely become another person! Therefore, only 7 years after he defected to Liu Bei, he died of depression. Of course, in the history books, it is said that Ma Chao died of illness, but in a comprehensive analysis, it is not so much a death, as a depressed death!
