Although Sun Chang Wuji ranks first among the twenty-four heroes, he is not only a close friend of Li Shimin, but also his brother-in-law. At the same time, he participated in the planning of the change of Xuanwu Gate, and was the staunchest and most important supporter of Li Shimin's accession to the throne. But in fact, Li Shimin's most important hero is not Sun Chang Wuji, but Weichi Gong ranked seventh. Because he not only charged on the battlefield, but also made great contributions to the Li and Tang Dynasties. More importantly, he saved Li Shimin.
Weichi Gong, a civilian, joined the rebel army because of the chaos in the late Sui Dynasty. Later, he was defeated and surrendered to the Li Tang army, led by Li Shimin. Later, when I went hunting with Weichi Gong, I met other rebels who came to encirclement and suppression. At this critical juncture, Weichi Gong made a decisive decision and gulped it down. Seeing this, the rest of the soldiers retreated a little and joined Weichi Gong and Li Shimin to encircle deus ex. It was the first time that he saved Li Shimin, and since then, Weichi Gong's reputation has become higher and higher.
Since then, Li Shimin has sent troops to Hebei to crusade against other warlords. After several months of confrontation, Li Shimin was ambushed by the enemy because of impatience, and he was surrounded by others. At this critical juncture, Weichi Gong stepped forward again, leading several lean soldiers to break into houses and leave safely. This is the second time that Weichi Gong has saved Li Shimin. Therefore, Li Shimin gave Weichi Gong countless gold, silver and jewels, and even made Weichi Gong king of Wu after he became king. Since then, he has been highly valued by Li Shimin.
