On May 19, 1560, Nobunaga Oda, a weak daimyo of Owari, and Yoshimoto Imagawa, a daimyo who ruled Suruga, Totomi, and Mikawa, collided in a battle between Okehazama. I wrote the details in the article I covered earlier, but I think it is a historical fact that everyone knows that in general, more than 25,000 Imagawa troops were beaten by 5,000 soldiers.
It is said that Kohei Hattori and Shinsuke Mori raised the head of Yoshimoto Imagawa in this battle between Okehazama.
If you like history, you've heard both names, but I don't think many people know what happened after them. So, this time, I would like to describe the life of Kohei Hattori and Shinsuke Mori.
Battle between Kazutada Hattori and Okehazama
Hattori Kazutada =[ Hattori Kazutada It is only known that he was born in Owari, but he was sent to the indentured servitude as a child of a good family and was collected by Nobunaga's umamawari 1560 . At that time, he was about 18 to 20 years old.
It is presumed that the umamawari was strong in the role of stretching the body and acting as a shield for the monarch, and was also excellent in martial arts.
The record of the battle appears in the Battle of Okehazama, but it is possible that he accompanied Nobuyuki Oda on November 2, 1558 and an audience with Yoshiteru Ashikaga on February 2, 1559.
What kind of activity does Kodaira play in the Okehazama?
Battle of Okehazama However, Kodaira bravely slashed into the enemy's camp with his armed force, and although he made a major handle to put the most spear on Yoshimoto Imagawa's camp, he injured his knee in response to Yoshimoto's counterattack. When Kodaira got out of position, his formation was reversed and his colleague Shinsuke Mouri helped him when he was about to be slashed.
It was Kodaira who had the first spear, but it was Shinsuke Mouri, the second spear, who finally raised Yoshimoto's neck.
I don't know if there was a sequelae of Okehazama, but I didn't see any noticeable work after that, but it seems that his younger brother, Tadashi Koto, was serving Nobutada Oda and was fighting around the world. I split my fate at that time.
His younger brother, Tadashi Koto, died at Nijo Castle with Nobutada Oda due to the Honnoji Incident.
Serve Toyotomi Hideyoshi and become a castle-owning daimyo! ??
It is unknown what Kodaira was doing at the time of Honnoji, but it is stated that Kodaira appeared in the record as Hideyoshi Hashiba.
Later, Hideyoshi's Huangbo Clothes Since he was selected as a member, his wounds may have healed and he was active. And when Hideyoshi took over the world, Kodaira was recognized for his many years of achievement, and Jugoi 5th place Uneme I was awarded the rank of.
1591 Odawara Subjugation Thanks to his achievements in, he gained 35,000 stones in Ichishi-gun, Ise Province, set up a base in Matsusaka Castle, and became a castle-owning daimyo.
Toyotomi Hidetsugu's defeat and Hattori Kazutada's tragedy
Kodaira, who became a castle-owning daimyo, was appointed as an assistant to Hidetsugu's nephew, Hidetsugu, and received a letter from Hidetsugu [ Tadashi . ] And renamed. * His real name is Kazutada Hattori
1592 In the role of Bunroku, he belonged to the 8th corps of the Korean capital, and marched to Hanseong (currently Seoul) with Asano Yoshinaga, and after that he fought with Date Masamune and Kato Kiyomasa. After more than a year of fierce battles in Korea, Hideyoshi's boy's birth is sent to Kodaira, who returned to Japan.
This Hiroimaru Later Toyotomi Hideyori With the birth of, the position of Hidetsugu Toyotomi, who had been regarded as a successor until then, is jeopardized. According to the common wisdom, Hideyoshi, who wants to make his cute child a successor, makes Hidetsugu difficult, and he is forced to leave the house and is forced into seppuku after he has lived in Koyasan.
At this time, Tadashi Kodaira, who was an assistant to Hidetsugu, was completely confiscated and was confiscated by the five elders Kagekatsu Uesugi . You will be entrusted with your personality and ordered to perform seppuku.
At this time, July 1595 It is said that he is about 50 years old ...
Kodaira has a boy, and his second son, Katsunaga Hattori, later Fukushima Masanori . It is recorded that he served the Kishu Tokugawa family after serving.
Battle between Shinsuke Mouri and Okehazama
Next to Hattori Kazutada, I would like to introduce Shinsuke Mouri, who raised the head of Yoshimoto Imagawa.
Shinsuke Mouri =[Hidetaka Mouri] Is said to have been born in Owari Province, but its birth is uncertain. It is considered to be the same age as Kodaira because he became Nobunaga's umamawari at a young age, the same as Kodaira.
According to one theory, it is said to be Nobunaga's kosho, and it is said that he looked good.
Battle of Okehazama Then, I was one step behind Xiaoping, but when I caught up, it was the scene just before Xiaoping was cut. Yoshimoto Imagawa, who had a spear thrust into his body, was in a state of being angry and unable to see the surroundings, staring only at Kodaira.
Shinsuke saw this as an opportunity for Senjo Ichikaku and slashed at Yoshimoto, but Yoshimoto who returned to me showed his obsession to grab Shinsuke and bite his finger.
Eventually, Shinsuke raises Yoshimoto's neck, but Kodaira and his knees are cut due to full-blown wounds, making it difficult to walk. It was a fierce battle.
However, because it was a victory in the battle for the survival of the Oda clan, the whole family was in a festive mood.
Shinsuke Mouri was given Saemonnojo because of his achievements, so he was commonly known as Shinsuke [ Shinzaemon . ], And his real name was changed from Hidetaka to Yoshikatsu.
As a secretary to Nobunaga Oda, as a supporter ...
1567 Selected among the horsemen [ horo ] Is made, Shinzaemon also Kuromogishu I am enrolled in Nobunaga and serve on the side of Nobunaga. Kodaira and Shinsuke, who once fought with Yoshimoto Imagawa, started to make a difference in their careers around this time, but since Shinsuke was also bitten by his fingers, he was lagging behind in terms of courage among the mother's clothing. It seems that he often plays the role of Nobunaga's secretary.
1569 Attack on Okawachi Castle, 1582 Even in the Koshu subjugation of Nobunaga, he served as a secretary for personal organization and text management. According to one theory, he was also ordered to be a kosho as a kosho.
Honnoji Incident and Mouri Shinzaemon
1582 Oda Nobutada in the wake of Joraku Will serve as an aide to.
At the Honnoji Incident that occurred on June 2, he persuaded Nobutada with Kodaira's younger brother, Oda Nobutada, to escape Nobutada from Nijo Castle. Cut ], So I will take off the opportunity to escape while asking and answering questions.
It was decided to save time and protect Nobutada's end so that it would not get dirty, and Shinzaemon and his friends would die after struggling, but they were able to earn time until Nobutada committed suicide. ..
His age is around 40 years old, and there is no record of children, and Mori Shinsuke's torrent will end here.
Finally ...
After the Battle of Okehazama, he was delayed in his career during the Nobunaga era, and he successfully succeeded in his career with Kohei Hattori and the Oda clan, who became lords of the castle during Hideyoshi's era. Through.
Looking at his career advancement, Nobunaga seems to have appreciated Yoshimoto's raised head, Shinsuke Mouri, but I think this is a victory only with Hattori Kazutada's first spear. It was a contrasting life, but it would have been an irreplaceable event for them to kill Yoshimoto Imagawa together.
