is as famous as Lu Bu, but he doesn't dare to compete with Zhang Fei, why not?
Ma Chao and Zhang Fei once clashed at Jiamengguan. At the time, Zhang Fei was 48 years old, less than 50 years old. Ma Chao is 38 years old, no more, no less, Ma Chao is only 10 years younger than Zhang Fei. At that time, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao fought in Jamon for more than 300 rounds, during which Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang stopped, and Ma Chao and Zhang Fei could not tell the winner.
As the saying goes:"There is no first, and there is no second! "Ma Chao and Zhang Fei were both outstanding generals at that time, and they were both experienced in a hundred battles, if they fought to the death, they would definitely be able to distinguish the winner from the loser. It's a pity that Liu Bei was afraid that Zhang Fei would fail, so when the two clashed, Liu Bei stopped Zhang Fei many times and asked Zhang Fei to retreat.
The eldest brother Liu Bei heard the sound of retreating, and Zhang Fei had no choice but to give in. Liu Bei's move not only brought inconvenience to Zhang Fei's struggle, but also to the audience. Why?
The reason is very simple: Ma Chao and Zhang Fei are two generals who are rare to see in a century, if the two fight to the death, who is the real king? Although Ma Chao and Zhang Fei did not really win, a careful analysis of the situation at the time showed that this conclusion was correct.
Let's analyze Ma Chao's situation at that time.
What was Ma Chao's background at that time? What is his physical condition?
Ma Chao was born in 176 AD, and in 214 AD, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei fought at Jiameng Pass, when Ma Chao was only 38 years old. At that time, Ma Chao was 38 years old, which can be said to be the peak of his life's strength.
Prior to this, Ma Chao led the Western Liang Army to almost capture Cao Cao at Tongguan. It can be imagined how powerful Ma Chao's army was at that time. Cao Cao's army is like a cloud, and Xu Chu is his right-hand man. In any case, Ma Chao's martial arts were at the peak at that time.
Let's take a look at Ma Chao's career at that time.
It is ashamed to say that Ma Chao defected to Zhang Lu after the failure of the defeat of Cao. And what about Zhang Lu? He didn't fully trust Ma Chao, especially under Zhang Lumukai's hands, Zhang Lu saw that Ma Chao's martial arts were good, so he appointed Ma Chao as the herald, I don't know what the official position is, in short, it is equivalent to the current official, and Zhang Lu also plans to marry his daughter to Ma Chao.
However, the housekeeper who was with Zhang Lu at the time said the following.
Allusion and legend: Someone lobbied to Lu:"If you don't love your relatives, how can you love others? "Lu Buwei paused.
Mu Ke's words made Ma Chao very embarrassed, I think Zhang Lu's son-in-law Ma Chao did a good job at that time, and he still doesn't understand why the future old man suddenly quit.
Although Zhang Lu accepted Ma Chao at that time, his life was not carefree.
Second, what was Zhang Fei's career and health status at that time?
As I mentioned at the beginning of the article, Zhang Fei is 48 years old this year, which was considered an advanced age in the past, and it is estimated that he will retire in a few years. However, Zhang Fei's physical condition is still good. After all, Zhang Fei has an advantage in physical strength and endurance, because Zhang Sanfeng was originally a butcher.
Although Zhang Fei is 48 years old, his knowledge of martial arts has not diminished.
Moreover, Zhang Fei was already a famous general at that time. On Liu Bei's side, he is the third commander, on an equal footing with Zhang Fei, and is Liu Bei's partner, not to mention that Zhang Fei is on an equal footing on Liu Bei's side, that is, to kill Wei, he also has priority, and even has the right to avoid death. Zhang Fei lost Xuzhou, and Liu Bei only reprimanded him a few words.
In short, Zhang Fei's status on Liu Bei's side is compared with Ma Chao's status on Zhang Lu's side, Zhang Fei is in heaven and Ma Chao is in hell.
3. Ma Chao and Zhang Feijia dream of the showdown, who will win the final victory?
Above, we analyzed the physical condition and social status of Ma Chao and Zhang Fei at that time. In general, there is not much difference in the strength of the two, although Zhang Fei is nearly ten years older than Ma, Zhang Fei's strength was still in the tempering stage at that time.
So, if Ma Chao and Ma Jian had fought to the death at that time, and Liu Bei or Zhuge Liang had not intervened, who would have won? There are three answers to this question.
1.The first is physical strength.
At that time, Liu Bei was in Mianzhu with Zhuge Liang and others, preparing to attack Chengdu as soon as possible. But this time Ma Chao suddenly led the army to attack Jiameng Pass, Jiameng Pass was in Liu Bei's rear, if he couldn't attack Chengdu, the loss of Jiameng Pass was also a problem.
When he heard the news that Ma Chao had attacked Jiamengguan, Liu Bei and others came to the rescue.
At that time, Ma Chao was in the middle army, that is, the rear army, and the front army was of course in charge of Ma Dai. Ma Dai is a third-grade general, and he was directly beaten by Zhang Fei for a few rounds, and Zhang Fei threatened him and said:'Go back to your brother Ma Chao!
But later Ma Chao led the army to the front of Jamon Pass, and since then Zhang Fei has an advantage in physical strength. After all, it was Zhang Fei who stayed in Jiamengguan to maintain his strength.
In the afternoon, Xuande saw that Ma Chaoman was tired, so he picked up 500 cavalry and chased Zhang Fei to the mountain pass.
It can be seen from the above that Zhang Fei had an advantage in physical strength at that time. Although Ma Chao was riding a war horse at that time, riding a horse was indeed physically demanding.
2.Comparison of comprehensive abilities and aura.
When Ma Chao went to the challenge, Zhang Fei waited until the afternoon when the morale of the soldiers and horses in Xiliang was a little low, and then he went out of the city to play against Ma Chao. At that time, despite the scorching sun, Ma Chao's morale was not affected at all.
Two horses marched in unison, spears raised. The two sides fought for more than 100 rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. Ma Chao and Zhang Fei fought for the first time. The two fought for more than 100 rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. Liu Bei ate melon seeds, drank milk tea, and clapped his hands and called Ma Chao a tiger general!
When Ma Chao and Zhang Fei fought, Liu Bei came in. He stole the gold and retired from the army, for the simple reason that he was worried that if the brothers didn't fight, Ma Chao would beat Zhang Fei.
As Liu Bei's eldest brother, Zhang Fei was also very angry and didn't dare to open his mouth, and within a few minutes of returning to the barracks, Zhang Fei turned into a Pegasus and rushed to kill, and Ma Chao didn't know how to fight **.
Liu Bei understood his younger brother Zhang Fei's temper and knew that he would be stubborn if he was not allowed to fight, so Liu Bei had to bring someone to Guanzhong to help him.
Watching Zhang Fei and Ma Chao fight for another hundred rounds, their soul power doubled. Liu Bei sat in the city, watching Ma Chao and Zhang Fei fight for another hundred rounds, and this time Liu Bei came to a trick of the golden cicada to break out of its shell and retreat with a golden body.
Liu Bei's move really made Zhang Fei speechless. After Zhang Fei returned to the army, he decided to fight Ma Chao again. The two generals who fought on Chinese New Year's Eve are now afraid of being seen as two workaholics.
Light more torches and organize night battles! "Fei Yi said. But Ma Chao didn't budge at all! He shouted"Zhang Fei, do you dare to fight at night? Do you dare to fight at night? "So, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei started a wonderful night battle.
However, Ma Chao did not fight Zhang Fei this time, but after more than 20 rounds, he turned the horse's head and came back. In fact, generals with a little experience should know that Ma Chao must be trying to play some tricks, and sure enough, Zhang Fei saw that Ma Chao turned around and came back, and he was riding a fierce horse.
Ma Chao quickly hit with the copper hammer in his hand, but Zhang Fei still dodged the bronze bell. At the same time, Zhang Fei, like Ma Chao, quickly fled on horseback. Ma Chao vowed to take Zhang Fei's life, so he quickly arrived. Zhang Fei raised his bow and arrow and shot at Ma Chao. Archery is Ma Chao's forte, so he escaped easily.
So far, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei have fought for more than 300 rounds, but this time both sides fought from noon to night, and they were very tired. Therefore, both sides stopped to rest.
3.Compare known ** and martial arts achievements.
We all know that Zhang Fei's usual weapon is a spear, which is first of all a weapon to take advantage of. Ma Chao's weapon is a golden tiger head spear, which is one zhang and three feet long, while Zhang Fei's snake spear is only one zhang and eight feet, which is shorter than Ma Chao's tiger head gun.
In addition, Ma Chao is also a well-known commander and leader among the generals of Xiliang, and a figure at the level of the god of war. In addition to being good at swords and guns, he is also proficient in swordsmanship. Ma Chao has a set of swordsmanship, called"Extralegal swordsmanship", spread in the world, so Ma Chao is also regarded as a generation of grandmasters.
With Ma Chao's horseback riding and archery skills, at least in terms of archery skills and short barrels used in hand-to-hand combat, he is better than Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao completely has an advantage.
Moreover, Ma Chao is about ten years younger than Zhang Fei, and in terms of physical strength, Ma Chao is better than Zhang Fei. No matter how fierce Zhang Fei is, he can't reach his age.
Therefore, combined strength, martial arts, swordsmanship, and Ma Chao, depending on the length of the weapons used by Zhang Fei, if he continues to fight, even if Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are unblocked, it must be Zhang Fei who suffers in the end.
It's just that there is such an evaluation of Ma Chao's force value and Cao Cao's bravery:"Horse leather shroud, I have nowhere to bury! "The meaning of this sentence can be said to be: Ma Chao's strength is so great that he can be compared with Lu Bu, his martial arts are slightly inferior, and everything else can be compared with Lu Bu.
So, why didn't Ma Chao dare to defeat Zhang Fei in one go, and even kill him with one blow? It's very simple, Ma Chao knows that Zhang Lu is not credible now, how can a person who doesn't even have a home defeat Zhang Fei with all his might? As the saying goes, one enemy is better than many friends.
