Among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, the first of the generals is Wei Chigong;It shows that in the heart of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Wei Chigong is still very valued. This person joined Li Tang's team later than Qin Qiong, and was once Qin Qiong's defeated general;Why is Qin Qiong ranked last among the generals and the last of the twenty-four meritorious heroes?Mainly because of these three major credits, Qin Qiong can't compare.
To launch the "Xuanwumen Rebellion", Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was hesitant at first, because the army of the king of Qin was inferior to that of the prince. At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji brought Li Shimin good news, saying that Wei Chigong had secretly trained 800 dead soldiers outsideLi Shimin's attitude has finally hardened. Wei Chigong not only supported Li Shimin's preemptive strike, but also strengthened the strength of the Qin PalaceLi Shimin was very satisfied with him.
In order to weaken Li Shimin's strength, the crown prince Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, borrowed the hands of Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, to release Li Shimin's advisers Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui. In order to recall Fang Du and the others, Li Shimin privately sent Wei Chi Gong to inform them, and when he parted, he also said that if the two did not want to come back, he would kill them. In the end, Wei Chigong successfully picked up Fang Du and the others and continued to give advice to Li Shimin.
When the Xuanwumen Incident occurred, Li Shimin shot the crown prince Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, who knew that he was invincible, hurriedly ran, and Li Shimin chased after him, but was scratched by a branch and fell off his horse;Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, took this opportunity to successfully control Li Shimin. At the moment of life and death, Wei Chigong arrived and killed Li Yuanji and saved Li Shimin.
Wei Chigong made a great contribution in the "Xuanwumen Change", after Tang Taizong Li Shimin ascended the throne, he was rewarded, and Yu Chigong ushered in a highlight moment;Instantly it was a little floating. At a palace banquet, Wei Chigong's seat was at the back, and he was a little unhappy, so he made a fuss;was scolded by Li Shimin, and Wei Chigong became honest.
Wei Chi Gong is proud of his achievements, and he can act in a low-key manner after being reprimanded;Perhaps for this reason, Tang Taizong Li Shimin hung his image at the head of the Lingyan Pavilion military generals. Qin Qiong, on the other hand, remained neutral in the Xuanwumen Incident;was disliked by Taizong, and the weight was naturally not so heavy. For these two heroes, who do you admire more?
