    Ma Chao is one of the five tiger generals of Shu Han of the Three Kingdoms, and was the first fierce general of Xiliang before he returned to Liu Bei, and his force value can rival Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. After Ma Chao turned his back on Zhang Lu and defected to Liu Bei, Liu Bei ordered him to attack Sichuan as the vanguard, making great contributions to the establishment of the Shu Han regime. It's a pity that Ma Chao died of illness in the second year of Liu Bei's reign as emperor at the age of 47, which can be said to have died young.

    Ma Chao, as a Hu general, should be in good physical condition, but he died at the age of 47, and many people are very suspicious of the cause of his death. Most people believe that Ma Chao died of a normal illness. Ma Chao has been stationed in the southwest region since he surrendered to Shu Han as a northwesterner, and the warm and humid heat in the south made him seriously unaccustomed to the water and soil, resulting in his untimely death.

    On the other hand, Ma Chao surrendered to Liu Bei, but this person is by no means a person who is willing to live under the people, he saw Liu Bei, who was born in straw shoes, he was naturally arrogant, and dared to call his name Xuande, which made Liu Bei's younger brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei very unhappy, and threatened to kill Ma Chao.

    Since then, Ma Chao has begun to be a man with his tail between his legs in the Shu Han camp, and he has taken refuge in Liu Bei is already the third lord he has taken refuge in, so he naturally can't get Liu Bei's reuse, and his mood is very unhappy. He betrayed Cao Cao and caused more than 100 people in his entire family to be killed by Cao Cao, which was also an important reason for his depressed mood. In addition, Ma Chao has an arrogant temperament, is not good at communicating, and has no intimate friends to vomit unhappiness.

    The most reasonable explanation for Ma Chao's early death is that the original King of Xiliang had to take refuge in Liu Bei, who was arrogant and not reused, and he was naturally depressed, coupled with the mistakes he made in his early years, which led to the clansmen being killed by Cao Cao, which increased the degree of sadness in his heart, and the dissatisfaction with water and soil directly aggravated his condition.

    There is also a saying about wild history, saying that Ma Chao was more offended than Liu Bei's Mrs. Sun, was hated by Liu Bei, and was directly assassinated by Zhao Yun, although it is not credible, but it is very informative, and wild history is by no means groundless, it can be seen that Ma Chao is not having a good time in Liu Bei's camp.

    Ma Chao was not valued by Liu Bei at that time. So he was eventually killed. It's still miserable.

    Ma Chao died of illness and Ma Chao was poor and had no way out, and finally defected to Liu Bei, and made great contributions to be named Marquis and Jin Jue. However, the past of his rebellion that led to the destruction of his family has not been forgotten. It is difficult for him to be trusted by people anymore if he acts like that, not to mention Liu Bei, who is known as the "hero".

    It is precisely for this reason that Ma Chao, who entered Liu Bei's group, was followed by suspicion and prevention after a short period of glory. Guan Yu, who was far away in Jingzhou, could not rest assured, and wrote a letter to Zhuge Liang in Chengdu, asking who Ma Chao's generals were comparable.

    The above passage is from "Three Kingdoms. The Biography of Guan Yu. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" adopted it, but Guan Yu's letter was changed to an intention to enter Sichuan and compete with Ma Chao, thus increasing the depth of the story.

    Many people regard this incident as a typical example of Guan Yu's arrogance and intolerance, and often compare it with Guan Yu's shame in being in the company of the "veteran" Huang Zhong. Such a view is a bit underestimating Guan Yu, and it buries his good intentions. In fact, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang were singing and singing, intending to scare Ma Chao's momentum and tactfully warn him that Zhuge Liang compared Ma Chao to Yingbu and Peng Yue, who fought between Chu and Han, which was really meaningful.

    Peng Yue and Yingbu were both the "heroes of the world" at that time, the founding fathers of Liu Bang, but they were soon killed for misdeeds. The real intention of this metaphor is to warn Ma Chao: If you want to enjoy wealth and dignity for a long time, you must be honest and keep to yourself.

    The authorities treated Ma Chao like this, and it was natural for other civil and military forces to take the opportunity to squeeze out. In this case, although Ma Chao has world-class martial arts and a heroic reputation, he can only be a sleepy city and "fear". Chen Shou in "Three Kingdoms.

    In the biography of Guan Zhang Ma Huang Zhao Biography, Ma Chao was given this comment: Ma Chao hindered Rong Yong, and once he covered his clan, it was a pity!

    Historically, he died of illness at the age of 47, and the reason for this is that I estimate that he died of depression, and people are very tired physically or mentally in the most negative situations

    Among the five tiger generals, Guan, Zhang, Zhao, and Huang were all born in poverty, but Ma Chao was the only one who was famous. Ma is beyond the Longxi clan, allegedly.

    After the famous general Ma Yuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty, his family has been in Liangzhou for a long time. He himself is "both civil and military, heroic, and a masterpiece of the world", and belongs to Yingbu and Peng Yue. Liu Bei's soldiers were in Chengdu and could not be captured for a while. After Ma Chao led his troops to arrive, the people in the city were afraid of him.

    's prestige, and he was immediately shocked. Liu Zhang had no choice but to open the door and surrender under such circumstances. Ma Chao made great contributions to Liu Bei and Dingshu.

    For this reason, Liu Bei named him the general of Zuo after calling him the king of Hanzhong, ranking after Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

    As soon as Ma Chao entered Liu Bei Group, he received extremely high courtesy, but then fell into an embarrassing situation. Although the military attache in Shu Han.

    Ranked third, but neither took on a major role nor participated in commanding major battles. Before his death, Liu Bei launched it twice.

    Wars of great significance--- capture of Hanzhong and crusade against Sun Wu, there is no shadow of Ma Chao. Soon, Ma Chao died young at the age of forty-seven.

    In fact, Ma Chao was the most excluded in the Shu Han regime, and he not only felt lonely, but even had a sense of "danger".

    Ma Chao died of illness, and Ma Chao died in the second year of Zhang Wu at the age of forty-seven. "The reason why Ma Chao did not fight Wu with Liu Bei was because he was responsible for guarding Guanxi and defending Cao Wei, and he couldn't get out of it. In this regard, it was also mentioned in "Yizhong Tianpin Three Kingdoms", saying that Liu Bei's defeat in this expedition was greatly damaged, although it was due to various reasons, but "there is no general in Shuzhong" is also a reason.

    Because Guan, Zhang, and Huang are dead at this time, Zhao Yun is an untrusted "marginal figure", and only Ma Chao is alive and loyal, but unfortunately he can't pull away. Dying of illness at the age of 47 is indeed not long enough, but it is better than the fate of Guan and Zhang. In general, among the so-called "five tiger generals" (in fact, there are only four generals), Ma Chao's martial arts, loyalty, and heroism are all first-class, but unfortunately his luck is too bad.

    Ma Chao died of illness, mainly because he didn't understand and was not reused.

  10. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    Ma Chao died of old age, which can also be said to be the end of depression, and died before Zhao Yun, which made Zhuge Liang unable to reuse Ma Chao in the later Northern Expedition, which is a pity. In the second year of Zhangwu of Shu Han, Ma Chao died of illness at the age of forty-seven.

    The history books say that when Ma Chao rebelled against Cao Cao, his father and brother were in the court. He said to Han Sui: "Now I abandon my father, and you should abandon your son."

    It can be seen that Ma Chaoqi is ruthless. Therefore, Liu Bei has always been very wary of Ma Chao who returned to Shun. resolutely refused to give him the right to lead the troops, and only gave him a false position, so Ma Chao died of depression.

    The real Ma Chao in history died of illness. Zhang Wu died of illness in December of the second year (January 223) at the age of 47.

    Ma Chao (176 222 years), the word Mengqi, Fufeng Maoling people, the son of Weiwei Ma Teng, the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the founding of the Shu Han Dynasty, one of the heroes of the late Han Dynasty. In his early years, he fought with his father, and after Ma Teng entered Beijing, Ma Chao stayed in Yongzhou Sanfu. After the Battle of Tongguan was defeated by Cao Cao, he divided the counties of Longshang in Liangzhou.

    After the defeat, he attached himself to Zhang Lu and switched to Liu Bei. He died of illness in December of the second year of Zhangwu (January 223) at the age of 47.

    Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and folk culture nicknamed "Jin Ma Chao", because of the handsome appearance and the extraordinary outfit of the lion helmet and beast belt, white robe and silver armor, there is "no reduction in the courage of Lu Bu".

    In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Ma Chao's strength is still very strong, he has fought hundreds of rounds with Zhang Fei without being up or down, and when he was crusading against Cao Cao, he even cut Cao Cao's beard and abandoned his robe, and Ma Chao was appointed by Liu Bei as General Tianwei after returning to Liu Bei, and he was among the five tiger generals, which is enough to show that Liu Bei is very important Ma Chao, not in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", on the surface, it seems that Ma Chao is not reused. Maybe everyone thinks that to reuse Ma Chao, you should keep Ma Chao by your side, and if there is a major war, such as the Battle of Yiling, you should send Ma Chao to kill the enemy, but this is not the case.

    After Liu Bei successfully captured Yizhou, he rarely saw Ma Chao, because Ma Chao was sent to the west, because Ma Chao's reputation in the northwest region was very loud, so Liu Bei named Ma Chao as the pastor of Liangzhou, and the ethnic minorities in the northwest region also respected Ma Chao very much, so Ma Chao could play his greatest role here, which is why Liu Bei did not take Ma Chao with him. The northwest region is a rear area that Liu Bei attaches great importance to, if the northwest region is not well defended and is attacked by Cao Cao, then Liu Bei will not be able to devote himself wholeheartedly to the conquest of Eastern Wu.

    Ma Chao is dedicated to Liu Bei and is very loyal, which is also the result of Liu Bei's wholehearted and sincere treatment of Ma Chao. When Ma Chao finally died, he regretted very much that he did not help Liu Bei achieve the goal of dominating the world and supporting the Han family. Ma Chao returned to Liu Bei before, also because Zhuge Liang said that Cao Cao killed Ma Teng, that is, Ma Chao's father, and Ma Chao was about to leave with hatred before he avenged his father, so Ma Chao said to Liu Bei before he died that he would let all his descendants go into battle to kill the enemy and serve Liu Bei.

    Liu Bei was also very moved after hearing this.

    I still remember that Liu Bei just saw Ma Chao, and he liked Ma Chao very much, Ma Chao killed Zhang Fei under the city tower, and his masculinity and heroic temperament made Liu Bei also boil. Cao Cao also loves and hates Ma Chao, loves his ability, and hates his ability, if Ma Chao is alive, then Cao Cao can't sleep peacefully. Liu Bei is also very fond of Ma Chao, after all, such a good general, if he does not cherish it, he will lose his ambitions.

    Ma Chao was originally a prince, and he was committed to Liu Bei after losing the war with Cao Cao, and his loyalty was not high, if Liu Bei entrusted him with too many important tasks, it might increase his determination to rebel, so Liu Bei was always defensive of Ma Chao.

    Ma Chao was known as General Tianwei, but Liu Bei did not reuse him because his father and son were once under Cao Cao, but in the end they rebelled.

  16. Anonymous users2024-01-29

    Because Ma Chao belonged to Liu Bei later, he was not the one who fought the world with Liu Bei, so he was never trusted, nor did he reuse him.

    Because Ma Chao died of illness in middle age, Liu Bei sent Ma Chao to guard the south, and the south had been very stable before Ma Chao died.

    This is because although Ma Chao is strong in martial arts and has a strong ability to command troops, Liu Bei does not trust him.

    There really is such a person in history.

    Ma Chao died of natural causes. Sick and dead.

    Zhang Wu died of illness in December of the second year, that is, the second year after Liu Bei became emperor. At the same time, it was also the year when Liu Bei attacked Wu. That year, Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Xun. Then in the third year of Zhang Wu, Liu Bei died of illness in Yiling.

    When Liu Chan was in charge, he chased Ma Chao.

    has a younger brother Ma Dai, and later in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he killed Wei Yan's people with a knife.
