It is said that the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. How many heroes in history have finally become legends. Among them, the most legendary is the Three Kingdoms, the three brothers of Taoyuan, the five sons of liang, the wise generals Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, and the wolf Cao Cao have all left a strong mark on the picture of history. But few people know that even heroes can die tragically. For example, Zhang Fei, Sun Ce, and others died at the hands of Xiao Xiao; Ma Chao, Li Dian, Lü Meng, and others died young; Zhang Gao died at the hands of his own people; and so on. But even if their ending is lamentable, they have left a brilliant legacy after all. The warrior we introduced today is very sad, who is he? Why does the editor say this? Let's take a look.
This man once had a well-known brother, who was also a descendant of the general himself, and had been to the general of Pingbei, Chen Canghou. Speaking of which, some people may have guessed it. This person's surname is Ma, is a descendant of the Ma family, his ancestor is a general, called Ma Yuan, his brother is the three kingdoms period Shu Han famous general Ma Chao, he is Ma Chao before his death, entrusted to Liu Bei's cousin Ma Dai. Ma Daixian and his brother Ma Chao fought with Cao Cao at Tongguan. Later, Ma Chao failed, and Ma Dai retreated with Ma Chao to Longshang County. After that, Ma Dai followed Ma Chao to Hanzhong and also attached himself to Zhang Lu. A year later, Zhang Lu was jealous of Ma Chao's talent and wanted to get rid of him. When Ma Chao discovered their intentions, he and his brother Ma Dai defected to Liu Bei, who sent someone to summon Ma Chao. Later, Ma Dai attacked Chengdu with Ma Chao, and it took only a few days for Liu Zhang to surrender.
The editor checked the information and found that Ma Chao finally went to the end and said: "More than a hundred people in my family have been killed by Cao Mengde, and only my younger brother Ma Dai is the bloodline left by our family, so I have no regrets when entrusted to Your Majesty." Ma Chao left Ma Dai to Liu Bei before his death, which shows Ma Chao's trust and affirmation of his brother. In the nineteenth year of Jian'an, Ma Dai followed Ma Chao to rescue Liu Zhang, and although he had fought with Zhang Fei for more than ten years, he still failed, which shows that Ma Dai still has a certain combat effectiveness. As Ma Chao's younger brother, after Ma Chao's death, Ma Dai resolutely shouldered ma Chao's responsibilities and participated in the Northern Expedition. By the time Zhuge Liang died, Ma Dai's career path had reached the top. He was reused by the imperial court and appointed as the main general of the Northern Expedition, and there are historical records: "Wei Qinglong was three years old, and Shu invaded Ma Dailai. The emperor sent the general Niu Jin to defeat him and kill many people in the head. The reason why Ma Dai is remembered is not because of his family lineage as a military general, nor because he served as a major general in the Northern Expedition, but because he killed Wei Yan, who had held an important position. Chen Gongdu, a physiognomerist of the Republic of China, once commented on Ma Dai: Wei Yan rebelled because of the struggle for merit, fortunately Ma Dai killed him, otherwise the Shu state would have perished earlier. Later, during Zhuge Liang's Fifth Northern Expedition, he unfortunately fell ill and died, and on his deathbed, he ordered the army to stop the Northern Expedition and recuperate. However, after Zhuge Liang's death, Yang Yi and Wei Yan clashed, and Wei Yan did not obey the order to insist on the Northern Expedition. Therefore, Yang Yi could only order Ma Dai to kill Wei Yan. Ma Dai became famous ever since.
That is to say, Ma Dai, as a descendant of a generation of famous generals Ma Yuan, and a lifetime of fighting horses, finally became famous for killing his own people. As a warrior, this has to be said to be a sadness. Every warrior wants to kill the enemy bravely on the battlefield, and no one wants to become famous for killing their own people. This is also a joke that fate has made for Ma Dai. In the subsequent Northern Expedition, after Ma Dai was defeated by Niu Jin, there was no record of him in the historical records. A generation of loyal generals, after all, dissipated in history. Today's story xiaobian will talk about this, the next issue of goodbye Oh
