Rokkaku's Warring States period, when he was fighting for supremacy in Kinai with Miyoshi

Onin War When the aftermath of the nation spread throughout the country, people of the national people and people of the ranks such as Jizamurai took away the servants, public houses, and temples and shrines of the Muromachi Shogunate by force.

The 9th Shogun Yoshihisa Ashikaga conquers Rokkaku

Rokkaku Takayori , a leading guardian daimyo who ruled Minami Omi during the Muromachi period Was one of them, and took the manor of Omi province in his own country and expanded its power. In addition, the hexagonal vassals were formed by having the nationals and samurai in Omi seize and rule the mansion.

The embezzlement of the mansion by Rokkaku was so great that the shogunate 1487 tried to recapture the land that had been stolen to restore authority. 9th Shogun Yoshihisa Ashikaga Will leave Kyoto to conquer Rokkaku himself.

The number of soldiers is overwhelmingly large in the Shogunate army, Rokkaku Takayori Seemed to be a disadvantage, but he set up a small number of elite guerrilla warfare and fought well. The battle situation continues to move forward and backward, and the Shogunate army aims to exhaust Mr. Rokkaku and brings it to the endurance battle. However, when the shogun himself enjoyed waka poems and renga with public houses and monks and withdrew to the Gosho, his father, Ashikaga Yoshimasa . Will be politically indifferent.

1489 , when the battle was prolonged and the morale of the Shogunate army was about to decline. When Yoshinao died suddenly at the young age of 25, the Shogunate army pulled troops from Omi and Rokkaku Takayori . The sin of was to be forgiven. But 1491 To the teenage general, Yoshitane Turns his troops to conquer Rokkaku again and hunts down Takayori, but he is not caught. Even so, Takayori was able to rout to Koka, so Shogun Yoshitane made a triumphant return to Kyoto, saying that he had achieved some success in subduing Rokkaku.

Political change of Meio

However, 1493 Hosokawa Masamoto secretly asked for a coup opportunity By

[ Political change of Meiyo ], The Shogun Yoshitane was defeated, and 11th Shogun Yoshizumi Ashikaga Will be upheld. Taking this opportunity, Takayori Hexagon, who was aiming for a comeback in Koka, regained his power, and the subjugation army of the Shogunate also came to revenge.

For a while, Kanrei Masamoto Hosokawa However, when Masamoto was assassinated in the battle for the Hosokawa clan, Yoshioki Ouchi supported the teenage shogun Yoshitane. Has improved, and Yoshitane has returned to the shogunate position.

When Yoshiko came to power, the 11th Shogun Yoshizumi relied on Rokkaku Takayori. When Sumimoto Hosokawa, who also supported Yoshizumi Ashikaga, lost the battle with Yoshioki Ouchi, Rokkaku Takayori temporarily returned to Mr. Ouchi and others.

After that, he won the battle with Mr. Iba of Omi, and Mr. Rokkaku achieved the Sengoku daimyo.

Sadayori who built the heyday of the hexagonal family

Rokkaku Sadayori 12th Shogun Yoshiteru, 13th Shogun Yoshiteru With the Omi area under its influence, centering on the castle and Kan'onji castle, it had an influence on Iga and Ise province, and was approaching its peak.

Sadayori In the shogunate when he succeeded the family, Sumimoto Hosokawa and Takakuni The political affairs were extremely confused in the battle for the family reign by the Hosokawa clan. Rokkaku Sadayori intervened in the family dispute with Hosokawa Takakuni.

1520 Battle of Tojiin Then, Sumimoto's Miyoshi Nagahide 1527 Battle of Kawakatsujiguchi But as the main military commanders, Sumimoto Hosokawa and Harumoto Fought with. Thanks to Rokkaku Sadayori's generous support, Takakuni Hosokawa fought many times until his death in 1531.

After the death of Hosokawa Takakuni, Rokkaku Sadayori, who was a high-ranking sect, did not get in a bad position in the shogunate. That is because Harumoto Hosokawa himself, who was hostile, wanted peace with Yoshiharu, the 12th shogun who was defended by Sadayori.

Harumoto's Ashikaga Yoshitsuna It was Miyoshi Motonaga and Yoshitsugu Hatakeyama who disagreed with the policy change to change the saddle to Yoshiharu. was. On the other hand, Harumoto incites Ikko Sect and defeats both. However, this Ikko sect became a mob, and Rokkaku Sadayori was asked to wipe its butt, and succeeded in suppressing the Ikko sect and brought peace to Kyoto.

Sadayori, who strengthened his voice through the military service of the battle at Yamashina Honganji, strengthened his position in the shogunate by having Harumoto marry his daughter. Sadayori, who became able to intervene in the shogunate by becoming a relative of Harumoto Hosokawa, is 13th Shogun Yoshiteru . When he takes office, he will take power as a governor.

1549 In, Miyoshi's family reign broke out, and Nagayoshi Miyoshi and the president Harumoto Hosokawa will be on the side of the president in the battle of Eguchi, but he will be defeated by Chokei.

In the same year, the Rakuichi Ordinance was promulgated in the castle town of Kanonji, which is said to be the first Rakuichi / Rakuza in the Japanese history market. * Oda Nobunaga is not the first time ~

In parallel with Sadayori's success in the center, he is also expanding his power within the territory of Omi, attacking Hisamasa Asai of Kita Omi and making him a vassal.

In this way, Rokkaku Sadayori built the heyday of Mr. Rokkaku, and when the reign of the family was succeeded by Yoshikata, the direction of the clouds became suspicious.

Kannonji uproar and Rokkaku's decline

Rokkaku Yoshikata By the time he succeeded his family, he won the battle between Harumoto Hosokawa and Masanaga Miyoshi, Nagayoshi Miyoshi . Established the Miyoshi government and seized power. In order to seize the power of the central government, he will support Harumoto Hosokawa and Yoshiteru Ashikaga to challenge the Miyoshi clan, but the result will be pushed by the angry power of the Miyoshi clan.

Rokkaku Yoshikata Is Firstborn, Yoshiharu 1560 Nagamasa Asai rebels against Rokkaku Battle of Norada Will occur. Hexagonal parents and children will meet, but they will be defeated by the Asai army.

Mr. Asai, who won the Battle of Norada, gained independence from Mr. Rokkaku and surrendered the rule of Kita Omi, and Mr. Rokkaku's superiority in Omi collapsed. Yoshitatsu Saito was hostile to the situation, trying to break through the situation. Although it formed an alliance with, it was not a decisive hit.

Since the Battle of Norada, he has been repeatedly dispatched to Kyoto, and when Nagayoshi Miyoshi has a chance to lose control over politics, he wins the battle of Shogun Yamashiro and expels Miyoshi from Kyoto. I have succeeded in doing so.

1562 In, Yoshiken himself entered Kyoto and ruled Rakuchu, but in about two months Miyoshi Nagayoshi Peace and return to Omi Did. Around this time, Rokkaku, Miyoshi, Hosokawa It is said that Mr. Rokkaku had no spare capacity to run the administration because he was exhausted by the repeated political disputes.

Due to repeated conflicts, dissatisfaction was growing inside Mr. Rokkaku.

1563 The head of the family, Yoshiharu However, Shigeomi Kentoyo Goto Was assassinated at his residence, Kan'onji Castle.

Kannonji riot This incident, called, is believed to be the cause of Rokkaku's decline.

Kentoyo Goto Is a trusted vassal, and it is said that it was a feud between a hexagonal parent and child that killed Kentoyo. Father, Yoshinori who was aiming for joint rule of parents and children However, it is believed that the condominium system broke down as the struggle with Mr. Asai and Miyoshi continued.

Due to this turmoil, Rokkaku's chief retainer was separated, and Yoshikata and Yoshiharu's parents and children were expelled from Kannonji Castle. After that, Shigeomi's Gamo Sadahide / Kenhide parent and child However, the result was that he handed over his reign to Yoshiharu's younger brother, Yoshisada.

The weakening of Mr. Rokkaku due to this incident is clear, and there is no room to send troops to Kyoto, and Mr. Asai's response is barely possible, and Nobunaga Oda's Joraku will be fulfilled.

Oda Nobunaga's Joraku and Rokkaku's destruction

1568 , Oda Nobunaga Is Yoshiaki Ashikaga When he was on the way to Joraku, Yoshiken stood in Kan'onji Castle and prepared for a thorough fight. However, Rokkaku's centripetal force has been lost, and the Kannonji Castle Battle on September 12th. Defeated in, Yoshiken will fall to Koka.

After that, Asai / Asakura, Mt. Hiei, Miyoshi Sanjinshu Nobunaga Siege Network At the same time, we will set up a guerrilla warfare against the Oda army in South Omi. 1570 In 1572 , the Oda army's main force, Shibata and Sakuma army, suffered. He sent troops to the southern part of Lake Biwa and fought with Ikko-ikki to afflict the Oda army.

1573 He advanced to the eastern part of Lake Biwa and entered Sabae Castle.

In response to Shingen Takeda, who was glaring at the Oda clan from the east, Nobunaga and his innkeepers attacked the castle but protected it. However, when Shingen died of illness, the Nobunaga siege network failed, and the situation changed completely.

Nobunaga, who has lost the threat of the east, destroys Asai and Asakura at once and controls Kita Omi.

With that momentum, it attacks South Omi and surpasses it once, but 1574 Rokkaku Yoshikata Bodaiji Castle and Ishibe Castle Has fallen and Rokkaku as a Sengoku daimyo is destroyed Did.

After that, Rokkaku Yoshikata Has fallen, and Hideyoshi's congregation in his later years It seems that it became.

Hideyoshi played the role of a conversation partner, and many of the human resources were dropped out from prestigious people. Yoshiaki Ashikaga, Yoshikane Shiba, Norifusa Akamatsu, Akimoto Hosokawa It seems that former prestigious families such as were listed.
