Ma Chao took a few brothers to sit in Chang'an, in fact, he was depressed in his heart, watching Liu Bei reuse Ma Chao and let him guard his west gate.

The Chang'an area is now surrounded by Lu Peng on three sides, and the day he fell out with Lu Peng, he bore the brunt of it.

Especially in the Central Plains Hegemony War, Ma Chao was led by Liu Bei to charge into battle several times, and Ma Chao also saved Liu Bei's life several times, but every time Liu Bei was defeated, he took away part of the army from his men, so that Ma Chao's men really have less than 20,000 soldiers.

With 20,000 horses guarding the vast area, to face the attack of Lu Peng's army of more than 100,000 or 200,000 at any time, it is simply a praying mantis blocking the car.

Liu Bei died, and Zhuge Liang's scruples about Ma Chao became more serious, and he was even more marginalized.

In Ma Chao's opinion, the person who will succeed Zhuge Liang's class in the future should be himself, not Jiang Wei or Ma Jian with limited ability.

Ma Jian died, was killed by Zhuge Liang, Ma Chao knew why Ma Tan died, and then thought about Wei Yan, who died before, so he gave birth to the sad feeling of the rabbit and the fox, Ma Chao was even more worried about his ending, and he was completely depressed and desperate, and he no longer had any illusions about Zhuge Liang. As a result, every day I can only sit in the center of Chang'an City worrying about Lu Peng's attack, and I am also worried about the oppression behind, which is really a dilemma.

The rising sun rose in the east again, shining on the ancient Chang'an, which had been destroyed in countless wars, Ma Chao stood lonely on top of the city tower, looking at the vast and boundless Guanzhong Plain.

Ma Dai looked at Ma Chao, who was becoming more and more melancholy, and was really distressed and helpless.

How can a great hero who is so powerful come to such a desperate situation not make people feel sad and lamentable?

Quietly walked behind Ma Chao, Ma Dai thought carefully for a while, and then said to Ma Chao: "Now that the ancestor Liu Bei has passed away, Liu Chan is weak and incompetent, Zhuge Liang is difficult to support alone, and the Han Dynasty is completely finished, and there is no need for us to work for them anymore, so I think we should think about the next retreat." ”

There are too many people who think like Ma Dai in this so-called big Han, Liu Bei's sudden proclamation of the emperor completely cooled the hearts of many people, made the ideals in their hearts collapse, and made them no longer have a direction, so those who gathered in Luoyang to embrace the great Han of Zhongxing left one after another, and they no longer wanted to care about the disputes in this world.

The current so-called big man has fallen apart, and there is no point in serving this desperate big man anymore.

That's why there is now Ma Dai's statement.

Ma Chao was silent, and after a long time, he asked lightly: "Are you saying that we should find a new master?" ”

Ma Dai nodded.

Ma Chao didn't turn back, and said tiredly: "Sun Cao, in my eyes, he is just a pig and a dog, how can he be worthy of my assistance?" ”

"And Lu Peng, that's the most promising Mingjun."

Ma Chao was silent again, and said indifferently after a long time: "I don't despise him, let me be a dignified manly husband, how can I assist a despicable villain?" ”

I think that near Chang'an, I hijacked Emperor Han Xian's return to the west, but Lu Peng used despicable means to rebel against Han Sui, cut off his own back road, and even killed his wife and children, which is an enmity that does not share the sky.

In fact, if you really talk about it, why does the husband have no wife, after knowing the truth of the matter at the time, it was just a misunderstanding, and everyone said it, it is not unforgivable.

But Lu Peng did it again when he had already surrendered to his ally Liu Bei, but he attacked his camp in an extremely despicable way, 50,000 Xiliang disciples, 50,000 of his own descendants and tribes were slaughtered by him like that, how could he accept such a despicable act, how could such a blood feud let him go easily?

But thinking about it in a blink of an eye, what his brothers said is right, now the unification of the world is an irreversible fact under Lu Peng's command, no matter how much he struggles, no matter how heroic he is, in the end he is just a mantis blocking the car, and he can't change the wheel of history rolling forward at all, this is a personal sorrow, this is a hero's sorrow.

"You can surrender Lu Peng, but I will never surrender him, I must fight him to the death to get back his humiliation against me." Ma Chao replied to his younger brother flatly.

"Lu Peng will not give you a chance to fight alone, he has always paid attention to group fighting, in the face of his overwhelming giant arrows, he is as strong as Lu Bu can't win, let alone you, brother? Give up, or keep it useful."

Ma Chao turned around suddenly: "What else can you do with a useful body?" Is there a comeback? Dahan can't do anything anymore, go back to Xiliang? It has long been a territory like Lu Peng's iron bucket, even if I go back and gather people again, who else can be willing to respond to me in the years of peace? Even if the old ministry responds, he can only be a rogue horse thief. I think I am the first good man in Xiliang, Ma Chao, but in the end, I am greedy for life and afraid of death, and become a horse thief, which is an insult to myself, and it will be despised by future generations, I don't do it. ”

Ma Dai opened his mouth, really not knowing how to persuade this really proud brother.

Lu Bu, who is also invincible, can still ask Cao Cao for survival when he is cornered, but his brother is really proud and heroic.

On the horizon of the Guanzhong Great Plains, there has been a unique fire red flag of the Tang Dynasty flying and appearing, and with the guidance of this fire red army flag, there are countless soldiers who are overwhelmingly overwhelmed by black pressure, and they are taking unstoppable steps that no one can stop, and they are coming with firm steps.

Ma Chao comforted his arms and puffed up his chest: "Pass my generals, all the defenders of Chang'an will surrender." ”

Then he glanced at Ma Tie Ma Xiu and Ma Dai, who were already in tears, and said with firm and eager eyes: "Your war is over, your new campaign has begun, now, this is my own battle, this is my battle, please brothers fulfill me." ”

Then he grabbed his own big gun, grabbed his own flag, strode down the city, stepped on his war horse, and went out of the city alone but proudly, facing Lu Peng's 100,000 army.

Lu Peng still gave a real man, a real hero a brilliant ending, he and his invincible Zhao Yun together, accepted Ma Chao's heads-up challenge, just before this thousands of troops, the three of them fought for more than 100 rounds, and then killed Ma Chao in front of the battle.

Looking at the remains of Ma Chao lying on the battlefield with relief, Lu Peng ordered: "Bury Ma Chao with the gift of the marquis, he is a true hero." ”

Then he rode side by side with Zhao Yun and walked to Chang'an City, which was slowly opening up, accepted the surrender of the Ma brothers, and appointed him with the rank of first-class general of the Tang Dynasty.
