[Honnoji Incident] What is the possibility of the mastermind Hideyoshi Toyotomi? ??

Toyotomi Hideyoshi ( Toyotomi Hideyoshi ) Will take over the world later, but he from a farmer is Oda Nobunaga ( Oda Nobunaga ) Thanks to Mr., I will continue to advance.
Of course, Hideyoshi made an effort, but it was Nobunaga who gave me the chance.

Will Hideyoshi make Nobunaga, the great benefactor, a dead person?

This time, I would like to introduce "Is Toyotomi Hideyoshi the strange mastermind of Honnoji?"

If so, "If it doesn't ring, kill it, Hototogisu" Was Hideyoshi, right?

Honnoji Incidental Myth

Nobunaga Oda is a nemesis, Shingen Takeda ( Takeda Shingen ) After he died of illness, Shingen's child, Takeda Katsuyori ( Takeda Katsuyori ) And destroyed the Takeda family.

We are one step closer to unifying the world.

And Chugoku region conquest Hashiba Hashiba Hideyoshi (Toyotomi Hideyoshi) will request reinforcements.

Nobunaga is Akechi Mitsuhide ( Akechimitsu Hide ) I was going to let him go first, and then I would go myself.

May 29, 1582 , Nobunaga enters the Honnoji Temple in Kyoto.

Nobunaga carries 38 tea masterpieces from his own castle. Nobunaga loves tea.

June 1 , About 40 officials and monks are invited to the Bhikkhu Temple to hold a tea ceremony. And go to the banquet as it is.

At that time, Akechi Mitsuhide led 13,000 people . We will go to the Chugoku region.

Upon arriving at the junction between Kyoto and Saigoku, Mitsuhide chose the path to Kyoto without hesitation and proceeded straight.

Along the way, the horse's shoes ( shoes ) Let them throw away (horseshoes) and let Ashigaru and others change to small sandals of about 14 cm. This means preparing for battle.
Among the vassals, Nobunaga ordered Ieyasu Tokugawa ( ) who was in Osaka at that time. Tokugawa Ieyasu ) It seems that he thought he was going to avenge him.

Suddenly, Mitsuhide's mouth uttered a surprising word.

"From today I will be a heavenly man! Your career will depend on your credit! The enemy is at Honnoji!"

Around 4 am the next day , Mitsuhide's army surrounding Honnoji.

There are more than 20 people around Nobunaga. (A little over 100 people)

"Don't miss it!" Nobunaga-san.
Meaning to deal with this place without saying four or five. Calm Nobunaga. Did he foresee this somewhere?

After this, it was the end that everyone knows.

What was the most profitable thing about the Honnoji Incident?

The theory is that the one who finally gained is the criminal.

In fact, Hideyoshi was the first to hear the news of the Honnoji Incident and returned to Kyoto to beat Akechi Mitsuhide.
Among Nobunaga's vassals, he was in a state of pulling out one head, and he went up to the world as it was.

The reason why Hideyoshi is the culprit is Nobunaga's seemingly unnecessary reinforcement request . ..
Hideyoshi was in a battle in the Chugoku region and was not in a critical situation.

Behind this action, Mitsuhide's plans for rebellion were heard from public officials in advance, and it seems that Mitsuhide created a situation that would not be unnatural even if he gathered troops.

To have Mitsuhide defeat Nobunaga.

And what I cannot miss is the quick action after hearing Nobunaga's sad news. is not it.
Popularly "Chugoku Otsuka" I'm the one.

First 70km in about a day Run through! I will return to Himeji Castle.

And the road to Kyoto 200km for 10 days I will run through it in about a while and face Mitsuhide in the first ride. It is considered to be one of the most powerful marches in Japanese history.

It was quick to run through, but before that, the withdrawal of the war was unusually fast.

Isn't it something you can't do without knowing it in advance?

Hideyoshi's mastermind theory is still difficult !?

Nobunaga's request for reinforcements was not due to a crisis situation, but to avoid being suspicious of Nobunaga by monopolizing his credit. Meaning of self-protection It is also said that there was.

"Senior is the last!" It's a typical guy.

In fact, there is a story that Hideyoshi didn't call him and Nobunaga himself decided to go.
Good point theory is.

Immediately after the Honnoji Incident, Mitsuhide's vassals entered Hideyoshi's castle, and Hideyoshi's family all fled.
There is also a view that there was no alliance between the two due to this.

As for the speed of withdrawal, in fact, preparation for Nobunaga-san just worked. It is also said to be.
Moreover, the first 70km run is unusually fast, but it seems that 200km is normal speed for 10 days.

Summary

To guess from this, Hideyoshi's mastermind theory is interesting, but it seems quite impossible.

I think Hideyoshi's path to trade-in was paved by himself.

The Honnoji Incident is surrounded by many mysteries, and there are many mastermind theories.

Tenkai ( ) who created the Edo Shogunate with Ieyasu Tokugawa Tenkai ) Is he actually the same person as Akechi Mitsuhide? There is a rumor that "The strange mastermind behind Honnoji was Ieyasu Tokugawa !?" May be a powerful theory.

[Mystery solved? ] The strange Shikoku theory of Honnoji! Akechi Mitsuhide's motive was here!
