turned his back on Liu Zhang and defected to Liu Bei.
In the early years of Jian'an, the world was hungry, and Meng Da followed the law into Shu and worshiped Liu Zhang as brothers.
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), Cao Cao personally led a large army to attack Jingzhou. Liu Zhang, who was cowardly by nature, sent Zhao to make friends with Cao Cao, who appointed Liu Zhang as General Zhenwei and his younger brother as General Pingkou. Liu Zhang sent Zhang Song to meet Cao Cao, but Zhang Song returned to Cao Cao and persuaded Liu Zhang not to congratulate Cao Cao anymore and to befriend Liu Bei instead. Liu Zhang then sent Fazang to form an alliance with Liu Bei, and Fazang and Meng Da led thousands of troops to help Liu Bei defend against Cao Cao.

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Meng Da was ordered to attack Zigu Fangling and killed Fangling Taishou Kuaiqi. Liu Bei was worried that Meng Da's lone army would not be able to win, so he ordered Liu Feng to take the letter from Hanzhong and go south to lead Meng Da's army. Liu Feng led his army to rendezvous with Meng Da at Shangyong, and then forced Shangyong Taishou Shendan to surrender.
At the end of the same year, Guan Yu besieged Xiangfan and repeatedly asked Liu Feng and Meng Da to send troops to help, but Liu Feng and Meng Da did not occupy the three counties of Shangyong for a long time, and did not dare to simply refuse on the grounds of sending troops.
After Guan Yu was defeated and killed, Meng Da feared that he would be punished for not sending reinforcements, and on the other hand, he had many disagreements with Liu Feng, who often intimidated him, so he surrendered to Cao Wei with more than 4,000 people.

After Meng Da surrendered to Cao Wei, Cao Pi reused him and named him the Marquis of Pingyang and the General of Jianwu. Cao Pi merged the three counties of Fangling, Shangyong, and Xicheng into the new city, and appointed Meng Da as the new city guard. At the same time, Meng Da became acquainted with Huanjie and Xiahou Shang, and attacked Liu Feng with Xiahou Shang and Xu Huang.
In May of the seventh year of the early Huang dynasty (226), Cao Pi fell ill and died, and at this time, Huanjie and Xiahou Shang had also died. Meng Da lost his roots in Wei, and Cao Rong did not trust Meng Da because of Meng Da's previous"Bad deeds", which troubled Meng Da's mind and made him worry about his innocence all the time.
When Zhuge Liang learned of Meng Da's situation, he wrote to him, intending to bring him back to Shu Han, but Meng Da hesitated and neither agreed nor resolutely refused. Later, Wei Xingtaishou Shenyi, who was at odds with Meng Da, learned of Meng Da's correspondence with Zhuge Liang, so he wrote a letter to inform Meng Da of his collaboration with the enemy.
When Sima Yi found out, he wrote a letter to appease Meng Da and secretly dispatched troops to prevent changes. When Meng Da learned that Sima Yi was leading his troops to the battle, he decided to stand up and fight Cao Wei to the death. However, he originally thought that Sima Yi would take at least 30 days to arrive, but he didn't expect Sima Yi to walk 1,200 miles and arrive in eight days, completely disrupting Meng Da's plan.
Sima Yi's army then besieged Shangyong for 16 days. Meng Da's nephew Deng Xian and his subordinate Li Fu forced Meng Da to surrender, and after the city was broken, Meng Da was killed and captured the capital.
