In the Three Kingdoms period, there were many legendary heroes, Guan Yu walked a thousand miles to achieve the name of loyalty and righteousness in the ages, and Zhao Yun single-riding back cao jun became a tiger hero. However, during the Three Kingdoms period, there were several tragic heroes, and Ma Dai was one of them. Since his parents died in childhood, with Ma Chao drifting around, with a one-trick victory skill, he became a hero in the late Shu Army, of course, because his knife also left Ma Chao with too much controversy, and his disappearance after this knife also made Ma Dai more mysterious.
【Zhuge Liang's trust】
As soon as Wei Yan came to the army, Zhuge Liang discovered the so-called anti-bone, and Wei Yan, who could be reused by Liu Bei, was never able to enter Zhuge Liang's heart, Zhang Yi, Liao Hua, and Zhang Ling were only serving the Shu state loyally, and Guan Xing Zhang Bao, who died young, also became Zhuge Liang's biggest regret. In addition to Ma Mo, who talked on paper, there were only five figures in the entire Shu army who could gain the trust of this cautious Zhuge Liang, and they were Jiang Wei, Zhao Yun, Yang Yi, Wang Ping, and Ma Dai.
Jiang Wei, a young talent, was cultivated as soon as he entered the Shu camp, and his martial arts could also compete with Zhang Gaoyi, and the zhenshou street pavilion might be able to last until the arrival of Zhuge Liang's army, but in order to allow Jiang Wei to develop better in the future, Zhuge Liang fully protected and suppressed this highly potential Jiang Wei. Yang Yi gained power and became an important figure in stimulating internal contradictions in the Shu army, and before Yang Yi was reused, Wei Yan was still only arrogant, and after Yang Yi gained power, it directly caused Wei Yan's resistance and dissatisfaction. Wang Ping's steadiness and loyalty are also deeply valued by Zhuge Liang, and Zhao Yun is the longest accompanying Zhuge Liang, whether it is martial arts or loyalty is Zhuge Liang's most satisfactory figure.
Ma Dai was initially very unpopular with the Shu state, but Ma Dai, who had a stoic personality, was favored by Zhuge Liang, and he was also transferred to the army of the Southern Expedition Meng. The strictness and low-key along the way made Zhuge Liang have a bit of a good feeling, but what shocked Zhuge Liang was that he captured Meng alive in one round of Ma Dai in pan snake valley, and Xi Pingguan captured Yadan Cheng xiang in one round, and since then he has left some more weight on Ma Dai. In the Battle of the Northern Expedition, Ma Dai was repeatedly successful, and gradually Ma Dai became the most important force for Zhuge Liang. Before Zhuge Liang died, in order to prevent Wei Yan from mutiny, he knew that Jiang Wei's seniority and Yang Yi's weakness could not compete with Wei Yan, and Wang Ping was brave but always inferior to Wei Yan, and finally he chose Ma Dai, who was surprisingly victorious.
【One-trick to win】
Ma Dai's grandfather Ma Pingyuan was a Lieutenant of Tianshui Lan, and was later dismissed from his position without money to pay bribes, and because the family was poor, he found a Qiang woman and gave birth to Ma Teng and Ma Dai's father. Ma Dai, whose parents died early, was raised by his uncle Ma Teng, and the Ma family once had a very remarkable ancestor, that is, Ma Yuan, the founding general of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Ma Yuan has inherited a total of four major skills, marksmanship, knife technique, hammer method and flying hammer, under the guidance of Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Ma Tie, Ma Xiu and Ma Dai learned marksmanship. For a period of time, Ma Chao relied on his care and patience, the more he practiced the marksmanship, the better, and Ma Dai liked the sword technique more, he learned the Ma family sword training method with the help of everyone, and the decisive Ma Dai paid more attention to the victory of the battlefield, and did not like the kind of martial arts competition before the battle, and he was good at grasping the fighter for many years. After Ye Mengguan lost to Zhang Fei and Wei Yan, Ma Dai no longer fought easily, he studied the fighter more carefully, and his shots became more fierce, and after a few years, he secretly practiced a winning skill.
From the Southern Expedition to the Northern Expedition, Ma Dai would not attack easily. When the busy tooth long axe slashed at him, he only flashed quickly, and then decisively chopped him under the horse; during the Northern Expedition, he encountered Chen Zao, the pioneer of the Wei army, and Ma Dai also made a decisive split. When he was ordered by Zhuge Liang's will, Ma Dai also spared no room for sword slashing. Because of the defeat of Ye Mengguan, Ma Dai also became more sharp and agile, shooting particularly decisively and bravely, and the brave Meng Yue and Ya Dan Xiang were also captured by him in one move.
Although Ma Dai inherited the Ma family knife technique, the overall level was not too high, although a one-move victory made him a surprise victory, after all, the people who killed were some second- and third-rate warriors. His strength should still be somewhat different from Wei Yan and Zhang Gao, comparable to Wang Ping. However, due to Ma Dai's rationality and fierce courage, with the stunt of winning with one move, he can easily defeat those second- and third-rate generals by grabbing the fighter.
【Tragic Hero Ma Dai】
Ma Dai is a very unfortunate character, since he was raised by Ma Teng, his parents since childhood, that time should be Ma Dai's happiest time, and Ma Chao, Ma Tie, Ma Xiu, Pound also got along very well, although there are some frictions and conquests, basically also won the victory, the lonely Ma Dai began to have a little more confidence in his heart. After Ma Teng's death at Xu Du, the immediate defeat of the soldiers in Xiliang followed, and he began a drifting life with Ma Chao. From fighting Yang Fu to defecting to Zhang Lu, they encountered a lot of trauma and exclusion, and when they managed to surrender to Liu Bei's army, which was passed down by Ren Yi, the Shu army did not have a good feeling for them, Guan Yu wanted to rush back to Chengdu to duel, and even Zhao Yun did not seem to be too friendly.
Ma Dai's wife and children for many years also died in the war, and the newly married wife is also very strange, and the reclusive Ma Dai has also shown kindness to everyone, although there are a few smiles but only to avoid it. And Ma Chao exposed Peng Xi also completely cut off the door of the Ma family's friendship, and soon Ma Chao was depressed, leaving only the lonely Ma Dai. He only had a fictitious position and no real power, and the only thing that accompanied him was forbearance and caution, because he had no way to go, nor was he willing to betray the Shu kingdom again, and for many years he had been conscripting with the army as a deputy general, carrying out the arduous tasks entrusted to him by Zhuge Liang.
Snubbed for many years, he met a Yang Yi who appreciated himself, and Ma Dai, who thought that he would succeed in his old age, did not expect to encounter a disaster, Yang Yi was killed by the arrogance of heaven, and Ma Dai was also implicated. Anticipating that there would be a catastrophe, he prepared to avoid the Northern Expedition, but Jiang Huan only sent him 10,000 horses, and soon his expeditionary army was defeated by Niu Jin, and not long after returning to Chengdu, Ma Dai, a tragic hero, died of illness.
【Ma Dai and Wei Yan】
The last will and testament given to him by Zhuge Liang before his death made Ma Dai tangled for a long time, because the person who could really become Ma Dai's friend since the return to Shu was Wei Yan, who had always been a bit weak in the later period, but he had a lot of respect for Ma Dai. In terms of martial arts and the ability of the unified army, Wei Yan is still much stronger than Ma Dai, and although they have had a contest in Ye MengGuan, Ma Dai's dark arrow injured people and shot Wei Yan, but Wei Yan can also be regarded as a broad-minded hero, and he has a more heroic feeling of pity for Ma Dai. Especially in the late Shu Army, Wei Yan and Ma Dai can also be regarded as the oldest in seniority and age, and Ma Dai is also Ma Chao's cousin.
In fact, Ma Dai is also very aware of Wei Yan's strength and courage, they are not deep friends but also friendly and sympathetic, when Ma Chao also did a thing that was not heroic under the suppression, that is, to expose Peng Xian. In fact, Peng Xi was only a drunk and complaining maniac, but in order to keep his position in the later period, Ma Chao secretly ran to Liu Bei to report it, resulting in Peng Xi's murder. And Ma Dai also did a similar thing, for the peace and status of his later years, under Wei Yan's extreme trust, he suddenly slashed down, and this knife went down, making Ma Dai a very controversial figure.
