[From a peasant to a world] Toyotomi Hideyoshi was called a monkey!

Oda Nobunaga ( Oda Nobunaga ) Unification of the world that could not be achieved Toyotomi Hideyoshi ( Toyotomi Hideyoshi ) Mr. Miss.

The peasant origin is very famous.

"The best career in the Sengoku period" Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who was called "monkey" What was it like when it was called?

And what steps did he take to get ahead?

Let's go.

Before being called a monkey?

1536 and 1537 Born in either. What a birthday was January 1st? There is also a February 6th theory.
Isn't it even more like a heavenly person on January 1st?

Owari Province ( End of the story ) Peasant child in the village of (Aichi) .. He may have been even lower.
There are other theories, such as the village mayor's son, a carpenter, a blacksmith, a merchant, and a lumberjack.

7 years old His father died, and after that he was put in a temple but soon escaped. It looks like a monkey already.

Mother remarried I do, but my new father and Hideyoshi weren't on good terms. I have also been violent.

And 15 years old At that time, I left home and sold needles while Totomi ( Totoumi no Kuni ) (Shizuoka Prefecture) I'm wandering in the direction.

Hideyoshi said " Toyotomi Kinoshita ( " these days. Kinoshita Tokichirou ) I was calling myself.

Fujiyoshiro is under the control of Mr. Imagawa's vassal, Mr. Iio. Matsushita Nozuna ( Yuki Matsushita ) Serve ..

Mr. Imagawa is a Sengoku daimyo, Yoshimoto Imagawa ( I am now Yoshimoto ) Is famous. Fight against Nobunaga Oda, Shingen Takeda ( Takeda Shinden ) And Kenshin Uesugi ( Uesugi Kenshin ) It is the same person as. Great person.

From the perspective of Mr. Imagawa, Fujiyoshiro is a vassal of a vassal vassal. At this time, the people of the world are heaven and earth. It's the moon and soft-shelled turtle.

After Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Toyotomi Hideyoshi became world leaders, this first boss, Matsushita Notsuna, became Hideyoshi's vassal and was given a castle. I don't know what will happen to my life, so I'll be kind to everyone.

Mr. Fujiyoshiro will soon resign as a vassal of Matsushita Nozuna. He was bullied by his colleague and stole money. Hideyoshi doesn't have that kind of image. Only an image that is good for the world.

After this, he will meet Nobunaga Oda.

When I was called a monkey

Around 17 years old , Return to Owari Province and serve as Oda Nobunaga's dwarf .. He's a kind of chore. I'm about a few years older than Nobunaga.
The story includes the introduction of a friend who volunteered for himself, and the introduction from Nobunaga's concubine.

Castle " Fushin Bugyo ( Bugyo ) "Kitchen delegation" Nobunaga will love you by taking the initiative in achieving results. Civil engineering work for castles, etc. The results of civil engineering work and the kitchen ...

Around this time, famous sandals ( Zori ) I'm doing that guy. It is a guy who warms sandals in his bosom. I will finally demonstrate my skill in the world. By the way, this is a picture book, so did you really do it?

Around 24 years old , Marry One To do. Mr. Fujiyoshiro is still Ashigaru ( I'm sorry ) She was like a captain, so her mother is against it. However, the older sister shakes it off and gets married. The wedding ceremony was just laid with straw, and it was simple.

Around 28 years old , The name is finally "Kinoshita Toyotomi Hideyoshi" This is a sign that he is now one of Nobunaga's leading military commanders. He is steadily being promoted. The number of vassals will increase steadily.

And he has done his martial arts in numerous battles.
He dropped 18 castles in 10 days, and he was also a hero in the desperate situation of being pinched by the betrayal of his allies.

And finally around 36 , Nagahama ( Nagahama ) Became the owner of the castle (Shiga Prefecture) .. He misses having a wedding on the straw.

His name is also " Hashiba ( " Hashiba ) Hideyoshi " Change to. Nobunaga's vassal Nagahide Niwa ( Tamba Nagahide ) And Katsuie Shibata ( Katsuie Shibata ) There is also a pun theory from "from Hatashiba seller" which means odd firewood seller. He tried to avoid jealousy by appealing his low status.

Mitsunari Ishida ( Mitsunari Ishida ) I also meet Mr. San around this time.
After Hideyoshi's death, Ieyasu Tokugawa ( Tokugawa Ieyasu ) Those who fought in the battle of Sekigahara, the division of the world with Mr. It is a vassal that Hideyoshi trusted throughout his life.

And Hideyoshi's march is still unstoppable.

Monkeys take over the world!

Around 40 , Is ordered to capture the Chugoku region under the power of Mr. Mori, who is famous for his three arrows.

Even in this expedition, I went on to win more and more.
The tactics used at this time were "Siege of Miki", "Hunger of Tottori Castle", "Water attack of Takamatsu Castle", etc. Hail ) Attack. A fighting method that eliminates the amount of food of the enemy and drives it into surrender. It costs money and time, but it doesn't cost allies. How to fight that smart Hideyoshi is good at.

And around 45 during the Chugoku region expedition , The incident will happen.

Nobunaga Oda is a vassal, Akechi Mitsuhide ( Akechimitsu Hide ) Betrayed by Mr., he died at Honnoji Temple in Kyoto.

Nobunaga's vassals who were fighting all over the country hurried to Kyoto.

Who will aim for the world after Nobunaga's death? Or will Akechi Mitsuhide rule the world as it is?

It was Hideyoshi who came back early.

Then, he defeated Akechi Mitsuhide, began to have power among Nobunaga's vassals, and went up to the world as it was.

Summary

Hideyoshi, who is from a peasant family, has an unparalleled personality, and I think he was loved by his boss and gained the world by having excellent subordinates.

Nobunaga "monkey!" It seems that he started to call it, but in fact it seems that he was also called by his father and his first boss, Mr. Notsuna Matsushita.
Foreigners "like monkeys" It is said that he himself "ugly face" Is saying. It's a little painful.

Did he think he had no choice but to compete with his personality?

The most amazing thing is the eyes to see his wife and sister.
