In 222 AD, the "Xiliang Jin Ma Chao", who had created a great prestige in the heavens and the earth after a lifetime of conquest, was already 47 years old, which was not old for a general who had learned martial arts since childhood, but he was already dying of a serious illness, and before he died, he said to Liu Bei: "There are more than two hundred people in my clan, but they have all been slaughtered by Cao Cao, and now there is only one cousin Ma Dai left, hoping that His Majesty can take good care of him, and there is nothing else to ask for..."
At that time, Ma Chao did not know that in fact, although Cao Cao slaughtered almost all of his clans, there was still a cousin who ran out, that is, Ma Dai's brother Ma Kang. And Ma Kang also went to the West Asian region and established a powerful state, which its descendants have been handed down from generation to generation, and have long been the rulers of this country, and this country still exists today, that is, the Kingdom of Armenia.
When we think of Ma Chao now, the first thing that comes to mind is the identity of "Shu Han Five Tiger General", but in fact, in the beginning, Ma Chao was one of the princes who shook the world at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, holding the elite Liangzhou soldiers and horses, with a banner with the word "ma" can make many armies fall without a fight, and its prestige can be said to be far superior to Liu Bei, but later he was defeated by Cao Cao.
When Ma Chao decided to raise an army against Cao, his father and clan were all serving as officials from Chang'an City, in fact, as a hostage, but Ma Chao still resolutely raised an army, Cao Cao slaughtered all his clans after learning the news of his uprising, leaving only Ma Chao himself and his cousin Ma Dai, everyone believes that Ma Chao's clan has been completely destroyed, which is also what makes Ma Chao himself always grumpy, and he still can't forgive himself at the end of his life.
But in fact, Ma Chao's cousin, Ma Dai's brother Ma Kang is not in that group of hostages, because Liangzhou is located on the frontier, and has a lot of contacts with other nomadic Qiang and other people, so he helped the Qiang people train troops in the Qiang people very early, but because of the poor communication in ancient times, Ma Chao Cao Cao and others did not know, and when Ma Kang knew that the clan was slaughtered, the back road had been occupied by the Cao army, and he only had to flee further west, and naturally he could not report to Ma Chao.
According to the historical records, Ma Kang ran to the "West Sea" recorded by the ancients, that is, near today's Caspian Sea, and has run to the junction of West Asia and the European continent. At this time, the West Asian region was also a constant conquest, although ma kang's skill was not enough to become famous in China, but in West Asia it was almost in a state of nowhere, he first defected to the emperor of the Persian Empire, crowned the king with his military achievements, and then established the Kingdom of Armenia after the division of the Persian Empire, and achieved the Mamikonyan family, which is still famous today.
Although the Kingdom of Armenia has undergone many changes in its political system in history, it has always maintained the independence of sovereignty, and now it is full of beautiful women, and it also has a very special feeling for China, many people say that their ancestors are Chinese, and Chinese citizens can enter the country visa-free.
