It was Ma Zhong who captured Guan Yu in Linzhou. Why did he end up miserable? How Ma Zhong died in history is not clearly described. After all, Zhuge, a general, and a soldier probably don't deserve to be told by historians. So you can't leave detailed information. But in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is written that Ma Zhong was killed. Naturally, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a novel, not a history book, and can only be read as a literary work.

Chapter 83 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Ma Zhong led Fu Shiren and Mi Fang into Zhu Jiang ... Ma Zhong was assassinated by an accountant in the middle of the night and his head was cut off. The two of them hitchhiked dozens of times and went to the kiosk. Fu Lubing first introduced Feng to show his talents. The next day, I waited for you at the Royal Camp, presenting Ma Zhong's head ... The first Lord personally held Ma Zhong's head in order to bow down. Then, Guan Xing stripped Mi Fang and his clothes and trousers, knelt in the mourning hall, and personally cut them with a knife to offer sacrifices to Master Guan.

After Guan Yu was killed, Liu Bei led troops to attack Wu to avenge Guan Yu. Ma Zhong followed Pan Zhang and others to repel the enemy. In a battle, Ma Zhong attacked and shot the old general Huang Zhong. After Huang Zhong returned to camp, he died of an arrow wound. Soon, Pan Zhang was killed by Guan Xing, surrounded by Ma Zhong and defeated Zhang Bao for reinforcements. After that, Ma Zhong sorted out the defeated troops and stationed in Mi Fang and Fu Shiren in Zhu Jiang to prepare for Pan Zhang's revenge in advance.

Mi Fang and Fu Shiren found that the soldiers were dissatisfied and wanted to make trouble, so they took the opportunity to kill Ma Zhong and dedicated Ma Zhong's head to Liu Bei. But Liu Bei still didn't release Mi Fang and Fu Shiren who surrendered to Sun Quan and killed Guan Yu, and killed them to worship Guan Yu's dead soul.

Ma Zhong (Shu Han) On the other hand, as far as Ma Zhong of Shu Han is concerned. Ma Zhong (? -249 years), formerly known as Hudu, the word is sincere. A native of Langzhong County, Brazil (now Langzhong, Sichuan). Famous soldiers of Shu and Han in the Three Kingdoms period. For Ma Zhong, when he was a child, he was adopted by his grandfather. His surname was Du. Later, I changed my surname to Ma and changed my surname to Zhong. When Liu Zhang occupied Yizhou, Ma Zhong became a county magistrate in Brazil. At the end of the construction, he was elected as Xiao Lian and became the county grandfather of Xiahanchang County in Brazil County.

In the second year of Zhangwu (222), Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Xun in the battle of Yiling. After learning this news, Yan Zhi, the secretariat of Brazilian county, recruited soldiers from various counties to make up for the loss of elite soldiers of Shu and Han, and sent Ma Zhong to lead the troops to rescue them. At that time, Liu Bei had left and returned to Yong 'an. After meeting Ma Zhong and communicating with him, he said to the official minister Liu Ba, "Although I lost Huang Quan (at that time, Huang Quan had to surrender to Cao Wei), I gained a fox. This is also a talent in the world!" For this matter, Liu Bei's praise and obviously became a watershed in Ma Zhong's life. Although a year later, Liu Bei died in Baidicheng, but for Ma Zhong, he was promoted step by step and became a good minister.

In April of the third year of Zhangwu (223), Liu Bei died. In May, Liu Yuxin Chen proclaimed himself emperor, and his title was Lite. In the same year, Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister, opened the government to administer affairs and served as the governor of Ma Zhong. In view of such outstanding talents as Ma Zhong, Zhuge Liang chose to bring them into your Prime Minister's Office. In the third year of Jianxing (225), in March, Zhuge Liang sent troops to Nanzhong and appointed Ma Zhong as the secretariat of Songsi County.

In the eighth year of Jianxing (230), the Prime Minister Zhuge Liang entered Hanzhong, and Ma Zhong was enlisted as the Prime Minister of Shuhan to help Jiang Wan, a long history, solve the left-behind affairs, and also served as Yizhou Zhizhong. Thus, Ma Zhong must have won Zhuge Liang's position among them, so the latter one is several times independent.

In the 11th year of Jianxing (233), Governor Zhang Yi surrendered too strictly, which led to the rebellion of Liu Zhou and others in South China. Therefore, Zhuge Liang, prime minister of Shu and Han Dynasties, replaced Ma Zhong as viceroy and went to Nanzhong to put down the rebellion. For this matter, Ma Zhong lived up to his mission, defeated Liu Zhou and put down the rebellion. In the Shu Han Dynasty, Ma Zhong was made a general, and he made Hou Ting a foreign country.

In the fifth year of Yan Xi (242), Ma Zhong returned to Chengdu. At that time, Ah Fu Jiang Wan was stationed in Hanzhong, trying to besiege Wei Xing County and Shangyong County of Wei from Mianshui River, but the DPRK minister disagreed. Therefore, North Korea sent Ma Zhong north to Hanzhong to announce North Korea's intention to Jiang Wan. In addition, at that time, Jiang Wan was seriously ill, and the plan to attack Cao Wei by water was finally not implemented.

In the seventh year of Yan Xi (244), Cao Shuang, the general of Cao Wei, led an elite army to attack Hanzhong, and Fei Yi, the general, went north to defend the enemy, leaving Ma Zhong to deal with state affairs in Chengdu. After Fei Yi returned the enemy's favor, Ma Zhong also returned to Nanzhong. Judging from this situation, Ma Zhong's position has long been very close to that of Fei Yi. When Fei Yi had to go to Hanzhong to resist Cao Wei's army, Ma Zhong became a substitute in Fei Yi's mind and was helped to stay in Chengdu, the capital of Shu Han.

In the 12th year of Yan Xi (249), Ma Zhong died in office and his son Matthew succeeded him. During Ma Zhong's tenure as governor, although there seemed to be a mutiny in the southern and central parts of Shu Han, it did not intensify, that is, Pingding County was quickly acquired. On this basis, the stability of the central and southern regions undoubtedly brought favorable standards for Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei's northern expedition to the Central Plains, which was also Ma Zhong's important contribution to Shu Han.
