In "Bright Sword", Chu Yunfei has a famous saying called "the front is tight, the rear is tight" This sentence is quite reasonable, similar things really happened in history, the great general is fighting in the front, but the emperor in the rear is having an affair with the wife of the general, and the result is that the general gives up resistance in a fit of anger, and the emperor is captured and the country is destroyed. Then the little rabbit will introduce the sad general.
This general was seriously underestimated, he bravely competed zhang fei, but also had a strategy, but unfortunately the emperor did not listen to his golden jade good words, otherwise Yang Jian wanted to unify the country for decades, he was Xiao Maha, a famous general of the Chen Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties. His father, Xiao Yu, was a county clerk in Sixing County, and Xiao Maha followed his father to live in Sixing County. Later, his father died of illness, and Xiao Maha went to Nankang to join his uncle Cai Luyang.
In 550, Shixing Taishou Chen Baxian raised an army against Hou Jing and rescued Jiankang, while Cai Luyang led his troops to resist Chen Baxian. At the age of 19, he took part in this battle, playing alone, and no one could beat him. Later, when his uncle was defeated, he submitted to Hou Andu and fought with him, gaining great weight. Later, he was promoted to Bashan Taishou for his merits.
In 573, during the Northern Expedition of the Chen army, Xiao Maha crossed the river with the governor Wu Mingche to attack Qin County. Northern Qi sent the general Wei Baohu to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to the rescue. One of the Northern Qi generals was good at archery in the Western Regions, and Chen Jun was very afraid. Wu Mingche asked Xiao Maha: I heard that you braved Zhang Fei, can you kill this Hu person? Xiao Maha said that as long as I recognized him, I could kill him, and sure enough, in the battle, he rode into the Qi army alone to find the Hu people, and the Hu people did not open their bows, and they were smashed to death by the milling hammer he threw. The Qi army was greatly defeated, and he was also awarded the title of General of Ming Yi for his merits, Chang Shi of the Outer Scattered Horse, and Uncle of Lianping County, and soon became a marquis and was changed to a servant secretary. Later, when Wu Mingche fought against the Northern Qi army in Lüliang, Xiao Maha led seven men to rush into the enemy position, captured the banner of the Qi army, and was given the title of Jiejie, General Wuyi, and Assassin of Chenzhou.
In 582 (the fourteenth year of Taijian), Emperor Xuan of Chen died, and Chen Shuling, the king of Sixing, murdered the crown prince Chen Shubao without success, so he fled quickly, and Xiao Maha was ordered to chase after him, and as a result, he took hundreds of people to catch up and kill. Soon, Chen Shubao succeeded to the throne as the lord of Empress Chen. Xiao Maha was given the title of Commander of the Scattered Horse, Grand General of the Horse Riding, and Duke of Suijian County, and was also given the title of Shizhong (侍中), Grand General of the Horse Riders, and Grand Master Zuo Guanglu (左光禄大夫).
When Emperor Chen hou ascended to the throne, it was also the time when Yang Jian established the Sui Dynasty, and in 588, the Sui dynasty general He Ruobi left the town of Guangling (present-day Yangzhou, Jiangsu), and Chen Hou's director Xiao Maha ordered Xiao Maha to assassinate the history of southern Xuzhou to defend against the Sui army. The main force of the Sui army gradually assembled, during which Xiao Maha repeatedly suggested to Lord Chen Hou to deal with the Sui army, but Lord Chen Hou did not accept it. In this way, the main forces of the people were all in place, and at this time, Lord Chen Hou panicked and hurriedly let the generals of the Chen Dynasty go to war.
When Xiao Maha was fighting with He Ruobi, Chen Hou had a crush on Xiao Maha's wife, and this news was learned by Xiao Maha, so that Xiao Maha had no intention of fighting. As a result, the Sui army broke the Chen army, Chen Hou was captured, and the Chen Dynasty perished, it is worth mentioning that although Xiao Maha had been captured, his integrity even Yang Jian was very impressed, and he was also awarded the title of Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division. However, after Yang Guang ascended the throne, he participated in the rebellion of Yang Shu, the King of Han, because of his lack of encounters with Huai Cai, and was captured by Yang Su. Soon after, Xiao Maha was killed at the age of seventy-three.
This was a god of war level figure that everyone had underestimated, and if Lord Chen Hou had enough trust in him and given him relatively great power, then Yang Jian would have many years to unify the country.
