In an attempt to avenge the death of his father at the hands of Cao Cao, Mengqi attacked Cao Cao at Tong Gate near Chang'an with Han Sui, but lost. After a tumultuous period in Liang Province, he went to serve Zhang Lu of Han Zhong. He was ordered to aid Liu Zhang in the defense of Cheng Du, but surrendered due to a plan by Zhuge Liang. He later went on to serve Liu Bei, was appointed to the Five Tigers, and proposed strategies such as the capture of Hanzhong Commandry. Before he came to Shu, he was one of the Eight Riders of Han Sui, his uncle by sworn oath. Ma Chao did not always serve under Liu Bei. In Liu Bei's assault on Chengdu, he and his cousin Ma Dai led a final charge to stop Liu Bei. He was however, after a contentious combat with Zhang Fei, surrendered to Liu Bei.
