Name: Shimazu Yoshihiro 1535 -- 1619
Alias: Hyogo Head, Tadahira, Matashiro, Yizhen.
Road No.: Weishinsai .
Official position: Unknown.
Identity: Shimazu Takahisa's second son.
Biography: Led the brave Satsuma Legion, assisted his father Takahisa, and his brother Shimazu Yoshihisa unified Kyushu and became a famous general known as "Onishimazu".
In 1554, he fought for the first time in the siege of Osumiwa Kenjo Castle.
In 1572, at the Battle of Kikihara, Defeated the Ito Army with a small number of troops. The Battle of Ergawa and the Battle of Minamata Castle were the greatest achievements.
In 1587, the Shimazu family surrendered to the Toyotomi family and succeeded the family governor.
Seki He originally belonged to the Western Army in the battle. When the Western Army was defeated, Yoshihiro escaped in a bloody battle. After the war, Tokugawa retainer Naomasa Ii tried his best to plead for mercy and was able to be exempted.
Shimazu Yoshihiro
said When arriving at the Shimazu family in Satsuma, the first impression everyone has is that the four brothers of the Shimadzu family, Yoshihisa, are able to fully utilize their brothers' abilities and maintain the unity of the family. This is the most indispensable factor in the Shimadzu family's dominance of Kyushu. A missing condition. The abilities of these four brothers are also highly rated in history.
The most popular among the four is undoubtedly Shimazu Yoshihiro, the second oldest.
Shimazu Yoshihiro, known as "Onishi Manko" and "Oni Shimazu", is the most outstanding warrior in the Shimazu sect. (I think Iajiu is slightly stronger) Yoshihiro has a strong character, can calmly analyze when things happen, and is calm in situations of panic. His personal charm is unmatched by anyone in the family. All of this is destined that Yoshihiro will become Kyushu in the future. Even the number one player in the country.
In the Glorious Nobunaga Ambition series of games, Yoshihiro's military force has always been among the top five, and his military science value is also the best in proportion. Yoshihiro's ability has been fully certified. (Compared to Kato Kiyomasa, Tachibana Munesege and other later famous generals, the situation is much better.) Some people may ask: The Battle of Okitatsu and the Battle of Totsugawa, these battles related to the fate of the Shimazu family, were all commanded by the fourth male Iehisa. Why is Hiro ranked ahead of Iaku?
The answer is actually very simple. The three major battles in Yoshihiro's career determined the fate of Yoshihiro's No. 1 general in Kyushu.
As we all know, Yoshihiro's famous battle was the Kizakihara battle with the Hyuga Ito family, in which he won a victory with a small force of less than 500 soldiers and basically no casualties. It is rare in the history of Japanese joint war. (So the Kizakihara Battle was also given the reputation of "Kyushu Okehazama") The generals of the Ito family all look like faces in the game, but in fact they are not. The Ito family and the Shimazu family have been together for many years. Since then, they have been fighting repeatedly for the battle for Hyuga's good port, Yujin. (This also set a record for the highest city battle in Japanese history: the 140-year battle for Fertile City) The first generation of battles was initiated by Ito Yukuni, the first famous king of the Ito family (due to Obi Castle has several of the most prosperous castle towns in Kyushu). Eighteen thousand elite soldiers attacked Ogai Castle, which was guarded by Shimazu Domain's famous general at that time, that is, Shinna Tadensu, the builder of Ohi Castle. After the storm on the 17th day, After falling behind, the Shimazu Army's 8,000 reinforcements arrived, and they cooperated internally and externally to defeat the Ito Army. Yukuni also died in the battle.
Then from 1485 to 1567, Fertile City changed its owner five times, which shows the fierce competition. In 1568, Yisuke, the grandson of Ito Yukuni, recaptured Fertile City after thirty-one days of hard fighting, laying the foundation for the Ito family to reach its highest peak in history. At this time, the Ito family owned the entire territory of Hyuga, and the large couple The northern and other forty-eight cities have a territory of nearly 450,000 shi.
However, the Ito family only maintained this peak for less than five years. Due to the Battle of Kizakihara in the third year of Gengame (1572), they were no longer able to compete with the Shimadzu family. Yoshihiro was able to compete, and this battle was led by Yoshihiro. From then on, Yoshihiro became famous and became a fierce general known to everyone in the southern Kyushu region.
The second major battle in Yoshihiro's career was the "Battle of Sichuan" when he invaded North Korea. Since it was the Japanese who killed us Chinese, I won't go into details about it, but I will give it to everyone. Two sets of data for reference:
The Japanese Satsuma Army had 8,000 Ming troops and more than 40,000 troops (there are even reports that the number was 200,000)
There were about 1,700 casualties. There were nearly 8,000 casualties
This shows that our Ming army was quite embarrassed in this battle. (It's a pity that the boss Qi Jiguang didn't live for ten more years. How else could this set of data come from)
The third battle, the Battle of Sekigahara, was the most dangerous battle in Yoshihiro's career. , many famous generals under his command were killed in the battle (Seijun Seijoin, Toyohisa Shimazu, Kansuke Kansho, Tadake Kawakami, etc.), and he almost lost his life, but this battle marked the perfect ending for Yoshihiro's lifelong campaign. period.
As we all know, Hideyoshi is famous for not being able to "save" Satsuma Hayato (he was extremely mean to the Shimadzu family throughout his life. The deaths of Toku and Iehisa are the best evidence for Hideyoshi to suppress the Shimadzu family, but in the end The only ones who were loyal to themselves were the Shimazu family). In the last battle of the invasion of Korea, that is, the battle of retreat, we, Satsuma Hayato, were given the important task of supporting the rear. This was the tragedy of the Satsuma army - the Battle of Noryang Sea. The Sa army, which was not good at water warfare, faced the invincible North Korean navy of Yi Sun-shin and suffered heavy losses. The absolute number of casualties was more than 10,000. From then on, its vitality was severely damaged and it could not recover for more than ten years.
During the Battle of Sekigahara, Yoshihiro led more than a thousand troops and rushed to the battlefield as if going to a market. He himself had no intention of surviving in this battle.
Since Ishida Mitsunari's army did not rescue Shimazu Toyohisa's team before the war, Yoshihiro had a wait-and-see attitude at the beginning of the war. It was not until the Western Army was defeated that Yoshihiro bravely stood up. Deploying a forward formation, breaking through the Tokugawa army's main formation, and retreating after the arrogant Honda, Matsudaira, and Iibe Kei dispersed. Facing mountains and seas of pursuing troops, Yoshihiro was still able to maintain a calm mind and make calm decisions. orderly retreat. Of course, nephew Toyohisa and military advisor Changshouin Seijun both played the role of scapegoats. Here I have to mention Yoshihiro's military advisor Changshouin Seijun.

Biography:
The direct son of Shimazu Takahisa.

The Ito family was defeated in the Battle of Kizakihara, and the Osumi Ganfu family surrendered. In the Battle of Erchuan, Otomo Zonglin's army was defeated. In the Battle of Okinawa, the army of Ryuzouji Takanobu was defeated. At this time, except for Chikuzen and Toyozen, the entire Kyushu region was unified.
Otomo Sorin asked the Toyotomi army for reinforcements. In the Battle of Totsugawa, the Toyotomi Army's vanguard Sengoku Hidehisa's Army was defeated.
But after Toyotomi Hidenaga came and led the army, Toyotomi's army became stronger, Shimazu Yoshihisa decided to become a monk, and handed over the family governor to Shimazu Yoshihiro, and the Shimazu family surrendered. After the surrender, the territory was reduced to Satsuma, Osumi and part of Hyuga, and the ambition to unify Kyushu was shattered.

Name: Nabeshima Naoshige
Alias: Xin'an, Xinzhen, Xinchang, Xinsheng. Dharma name: Hitomi Sochi.
Official position: Left Dr. Emon, Hida Mamoru, Kaga Mamoru
Biography:
As early as the third year of Xianglu, the Ryuzouji family also received the assistance of the Akakuma Ichiki army and turned defeat into victory. The helpers were the ronin Nabeshima Shigenuo, the eldest son Kiyomasa, the second son Seifou and their clan. Because of this, the family adopted Seifang as his son-in-law. This was the beginning of the relationship between Ryuzoji and Nabeshima families. In August of the seventeenth year of Tianwen's reign, Qingfang's wife died. Long Xin's mother summoned him and said she would be his matchmaker. Qingfang was overjoyed and thanked her for her kindness.
As expected, the bride in the colorful sedan was actually the matchmaker himself! How is this happening? In Qingfang's surprise, she told Qingfang: Longxin was still young, and after losing his father and grandfather, he had no one to rely on, so he wanted to get married. Qingfang, who came from a wealthy family, would naturally not refuse her kindness. Later, Nobubo and Nobuo were born, and that Nobuo was the famous Nabeshima Naoshige of Ryuzoji family.
The lord of Qi Qingqi Castle in Xiaocheng County, the lord of Yanagawa Castle in Chikugo, and the lord of Zuojia Castle after Takanobu's death in Ryuzoji Temple. After his father cleared the house, he married Takanobu's mother, and Naoshige was also Takanobu's sworn brother.
At the time of the battle at Imayama, Saga Castle was besieged, and the city was discussing whether to make peace or surrender to the Otomo family, but Naomo insisted on going out to fight. He learned that Otomo's army had formed a formation in Imagawa, and they were drinking and having fun. Seven hundred cavalry attacked at night, Otomo's army was defeated, and the general Otomo Chisada was killed. The Ryuzouji family took advantage of the momentum and rose up to occupy the two islands of Gokoku.
In the Battle of Okitaqi, after learning about Takanobu's death, Decided to withdraw from the army. Later, he assisted the young ruler and took control of the real power...
After returning to the Toyotomi family, he won the Tohizen country with his merits.
Nabeshima Naoshige in Japan The overall evaluation in history should be that he was a very resourceful figure and was known as a "wise general". But is this Higo domain lord really worthy of his name?
When I played the Nobunaga series of games, I was very satisfied with Nabeshima's abilities. It is true that such a high value makes us very easy to use, but it is really difficult for me to be convinced by this person who is praised as a wise general.
Is he a wise general with noble moral character, or a hypocritical thief? lt;/Pgt;lt;Pgt;To be honest, the Nabeshima lineage is still a branch of Ryuzoji Temple, and Naoshima's father, Nabeshima Seifou, is the second husband of the Ryuzoji family's daughter. So Naoshige and Takanobu are cousins. Strictly speaking, Naoshige should also be a member of Ryuzoji Temple! In the Ryuzoji family, Naoshige is considered a person with prestige and status. With the assistance of such a wise and good general, Ryuzouji Takanobu's career is indeed very good. The record is also outstanding.
At the age of 32, when the Otomo army besieged Saka Castle, he led only 700 cavalry to attack the tens of thousands of Otomo troops at night, and won a great victory in killing the enemy general Otomo Chisada.
At the age of 46, he served as the right wing of the Ryuzoji Army in the Battle of Okitabana, fighting against Nobumitsu Saruwatari of the Shimazu Army and seeking the death of his son Yajiro Saruwatari. After learning that Takanobu died in battle, he retreated to Yanagawa Castle.
Afterwards, he gained the trust of Nobushu Ryuzoji and became the person with military power in Ryuzoji's family.
But after that, Nabeshima Naoshige gradually usurped the Ryuzoji family business, and was later named Lord Higo by Hideyoshi, completely replacing the Ryuzoji family. And participated in Ishida Mitsunari's persecution of Kato Kiyomasa. When he was in Sekigahara, he fell from Ishida to Tokugawa.
From the above examples, let’s take a look at Nabeshima! This is just my personal opinion.
Recurrent and fickle personality.
I don’t know what Naoshima Naoshima’s character is like. I’m just doing a small analysis here.
Nabeshima Naoshima is actually a repetitive person, and his views and opinions on things are not consistent. This can be seen from many things, which has led to the criticism of him that has appeared in Japanese history. ?Dark level 鑑?Huanxin涫康木?窈多龇ā6?涫康涖龇ㄍ?Embedded Yunnuo mace Naoyexi? Huang Qiao Piao Huan 5? Gun? Han ⒚ wave the heart 锴锏锏斤拷Youhuan?Zhan Mu Yaojian? Naipiao Huanghuai Wo Zhonghuai Wei Mou Dong Zhizhi? Rhyme quality file neon contracture actinium Zhang Mou Xi? 4 raised by Xia Xian father falcon? Yongshao Yuehui retreat? Annoying in the nunnery?nbsp;
①. When Hideyoshi conquered Kyushu, he was greatly favored by Hideyoshi and was granted a title. Therefore, his realizationist views led him to abandon one of his own families: the Ryuzoji family. He replaced Ryuzoji because the reality at this time required him to replace him, rather than continue his "loyalty" as a samurai spirit.
②, when he went to North Korea, he was Kato Kiyomasa's deputy general.
But he did not excuse Kiyomasa when Ishida Mitsunari persecuted Kato. Instead, he saw that Ishida Mitsunari was Hideyoshi's favorite and had a high status in the Japanese regime, so his realism forced him to violate the samurai's principles again. The spirit of justice, so he teamed up with Ishida to persecute Kato Toranosuke. This is probably also the "realism" in his heart that is causing trouble!
③. When he was in Sekigahara, as a samurai, he should have the spirit and view of "repaying any kindness he has received". However, this figure from a famous family in Kyushu, Japan, turned to Japan at this time. The owner, Tokugawa Ieyasu. Although he joined the Western Army, he fought passively. What is the difference between him and Hideaki Kobayakawa? Maybe there is a difference, that is, Hideaki dares to do it, dares to be a person who is instigated, but Nabeshima does not dare. It should be said that Nabeshima has a wait-and-see attitude, so he is even more pitiful in terms of character. This is also because of his "realism"!
It can be seen from the above examples that Naoshima Naoshima is a person who is dominated by his "realism" concept and thinks about himself and his family, and does not care about the Bushido spirit. He has been influenced by the spirit of Bushido since he was a child.
Is he a wise general or a traitor?
This question is difficult to explain clearly, because from the perspective of a world view such as philosophy, "the benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom." No one is wrong, it’s just a matter of different perspectives.
Is he a wise general with the overall situation in mind, or a traitor with ulterior motives?
Let’s use an example:
In the twelfth year of Tensho (1584), the army of the Ryuzoji family entered Okitatsui with confidence. They are competing for the title of "the true overlord of Kyushu". The opponent is none other than the Shimazu Army. Only an hour after the battle started, news came from the front: "Lord Longxin died in battle!" This bad news quickly reached the ears of every soldier in Longzao Temple. At this moment, everyone had two kinds of symptoms. An action with a completely different outcome: a heroic death in battle? Or retreating from the battlefield with no face, like a rabbit! One of the "Four Heavenly Kings of Ryuzoji Temple", Erikochi Shinsune, without even thinking, immediately attacked the Shimadzu family's front line. He shouted his name, rushed into Shimazu's army, and snatched the head of Ryuzoji Takanobu. After killing more than thirty Shimadzu soldiers, he fell heroically. Then, the other three "Kings": Kenkan Hyakutake, Nobukatsu Narimatsu, and Masanao Kinoshita shouted their names and rushed into the enemy formation. They led their men into Shimadzu's troops and died heroically one by one. As the first generation lord of Saga: Nabeshima Katsushige said: "A heroic death in battle is what any samurai pursues throughout his life. However, a samurai who died heroically in battle may only be remembered as a samurai!" "(From "Hizen Character Chronicles. Nabeshima Katsushige"), they all achieved the heroism pursued by samurai. But at this time, the father of Nabeshima Katsushige who said these words, Nabeshima Naoshima, who was of Ryuzoji family lineage, secretly retreated from the right wing at this time, and in the end there were only 6 people around him.
Let’s take a look at the situation at that time!
Nabeshima Naoshige was on the right wing of Ryuzoji Temple and sought the death of Saruwatari Yajiro, the son of Saruwatari Nobumitsu. Such a result should be very good and should be at the top. But why did he flee in all directions just a few minutes after Lord Takanobu died in battle? In the end, there were only 7 people left. All we can say is: the problem lies with Nabeshima Naoshima! As a person with prestige and status in the family. There is only one explanation for why his troops collapsed so quickly: Nabeshima Naoshima retreated first! This move was considered by many of his supporters in the future as "keeping the green hills alive, even if there is no wood to burn." But I don’t see it that way! First of all, he can continue to inspire his subordinates here. As a person with authority, his words are effective. So if he and his cronies can loudly shout: "Master Ryuzoji is not dead, he is still in such and such a place.
"The Shimadzu family is so shameless, using such a despicable method." Wait, wait, what is the result? Maybe the right-wing situation can also lead to other battlefields, and it is possible to defeat the opponent in a counterattack. After all, we just fought. It's only been an hour, and he still has the strength to counterattack! Secondly, if he wants to retreat, he doesn't have to take the lead in retreating so hastily. He can completely use the victory at that time to cover the retreat, and it won't be as miserable as only 7 people are left! And Nabeshima's final method of retreating caused huge losses. I'm afraid it's difficult to face the word "heroic"! In the end, it was his "excellent" performance in the Battle of Okita. In the end, he was able to preserve his whole body and embezzle the family property of Ryuzoji Temple. Finally, driven by his "realism" concept, he founded the Saka Domain after the establishment of the Edo Shogunate, and his own relatives, Ryuzo. The Tera family was destroyed, and the whole family disappeared! Is he a wise general who has a ulterior motive?
This is what Namoshima did. , but he preserved his strength at the cost of the destruction of the Ryuzoji clan. He has a lot of insights about Nabeshima Naoshige. Some people say that "the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy." , Anyway, he succeeded, what is there to say? But in my eyes, he is a fickle person with ulterior motives.
" Don’t judge a hero by his success or failure! "This is what I want to say. Successful people are not necessarily heroes, and vice versa!
Tachibana Chiyo
Tachibana Chiyo (たちばなぎんちよ, Eiroku August 13, 2012 (September 23, 1569) - October 17, Keicho 7 (November 30, 1602), was a woman in the Warring States Period in Japan. She was also known as Ginchiyo, Katsuchiyo, Ginagahi, and Akako. . The Buddhist name is "Kōuin Nozumi Yoshikiyo" and the divine name is "Zuiyokuin".
The female castle lord of the Warring States period
She is the daughter of Tachibana Doyuki, an important minister of the Otomo clan. , the mother was Hitoshihime (西hime, Hoshuin). In the third year of Tensho (1575), she was abdicated by Doseol and became the family governor when she was only 6-7 years old. This is a special case of becoming a female head based on Doseol's wishes. It was a rare example during the Warring States Period. However, Tachibana Michyuki himself still wanted a man to inherit the Tachibana family, so there was a practice of letting his adopted daughter marry the family's important minister, Sakino Masutoki, but Masutoki thought that he was not a blood relative or an important minister of the Otomo family.
Hakumei, Kannon
Chiyo was born beautiful at a young age, with fair skin and bright eyes, so she was praised as "Chizen's White Plum". Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who loved beautiful women, was rumored to want to get involved with women. Chiyo also had the dignity of his father Michizuki. He was intimidated by boys of the same age when he was young. As he grew older, he had a very high temperament, so he was praised. It is praised as the "White Mercy's Guanyin".
Thunder God's Daughter
In the 6th year of Tensho (1578), the Battle of Otomo broke out between the Otomo family and the Shimazu family, and the Otomo family was defeated. , the Japanese people in Chikuzen, Kitakyushu, who originally surrendered to the Otomo family, began to launch resistance activities one after another. Tachibana Michyuki and Takahashi Shoun went out of the city to fight for this. Chiyo Chiyo, who was in the city at the time, was not idle either. Although he was only 12 years old, he recruited The women and girls in the city organized a female iron artillery team to guard her.
Husband-in-law Chikumaru
Later, Doxue heard that Takahashi Shounsheng, the lord of Iwaya Castle who was also Otomo's retainer, had a son. Inichiyo was close in age, and his son was Senkumamaru, who would later be Tachibana Munege. Doyuki invited Senkumamaru to visit his hometown, Tachibana Mountain Castle, and observed his every move, thinking that he would become a great person in the future, so he decided to recruit him. He was handed over to the family elder Yubu Yashin to teach him, hoping to become a unique samurai so that he could inherit the Tachibana family. Soon Chikumamaru Gento was named Takahashi Yashichiro Tongtora, and Michizuki told Takahashi Shoun that he hoped to make Tongtora become a warrior. The adopted son inherited the Tachibana family. At first Shaoyun refused, but after Doxue begged hard, he finally allowed Tonghu to succeed.
The content of this pleading words is as follows: 'I (Daoxue) have been fighting for the Dayou family for decades since I was in my prime to now in my 70s, and there have been many moments of victory. However, in recent years, the Dayou family has Gradually declining, the thieves are getting stronger day by day, and our chance of victory is disappearing day by day. There are Ryuzoji Temple and Shimazu nearby, and there are strong enemies such as Mori further away. After my death, only you (Shao Yun) will be able to support the Otomo family. , but what you can do is still limited! Now you have two sons in their prime. If you can let the eldest son Totora inherit my Tachibana family, then at least two famous families will be able to guard the Otomo family after my death. ...'
However, there was also opposition from Ono Jinyuki, another patriarch of the Tachibana family. He only supported the inheritance of Chiyo, a flesh and blood member of the Tachibana family, but in the end he was persuaded by Doyuki and Shaoyun. .
The dispute over the family governor
On August 18, the 9th year of Tianzheng (1581), Inchiyo officially married Tonghu. At first, the two got along harmoniously, but after Daoxue's death, things started to change. The main reason for their disagreement is that they have similar personalities and temperaments, and no one gives in to the other when they quarrel. On September 11, Tensho 13, Michizuki died of illness during the Chikugo expedition. At this time, Totora changed his name to Tachibana Totora, and he and Inarichiyo inherited the Tachibana family.
Later, when Shimazu's army attacked Tachibanayama Castle, Inichiyo also led the army to prepare for the battle and followed Tongtora to kill the enemy.
After Kyushu experienced the conquest of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tachibana Munemo was granted a territory of more than 132,000 koku in Yanagi River for his merits. When Inichiyo found out, although he was happy for her husband's performance, he became depressed afterwards. , because he had to leave Tachibanayama Castle, where he had lived since he was a child, and move to Yanagawa Castle, where his father had been fighting for many years. Doyuki and his grandmother (Yokoin) were both buried in Tachibanayama Castle. The "Umeja Temple" was built in the city to commemorate his father, and he left the city three days later than Munemo...
However, the main reason is that Inchiyo himself believed that he was the lord of Tachibanayama Castle and the Tachibana family. The family governor, Inchiyo, who insisted on this idea, was unwilling to give up Tachibanayama Castle no matter what. For this reason, before the Tachibana family was about to leave the city, they quarreled and had quarrels with Tachibana Muneshige.
The Female Husband of the Western Kingdom
In the past few years during the Bunroku Keicho Campaign initiated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, because Munemo sent troops to Korea, he formed a women's patrol team in his territory Yanagawa, strictly To prevent fires, thieves, etc., patrol the streets, houses and other places every night. This matter is often told by future generations, and some stories are also created.
At this time, Hideyoshi was in Hizen-Nagoya Castle, recruiting the wives of various lords to serve him. Inichiyo was also ordered to participate. She also knew that Hideyoshi was famous for being lecherous, so she and her maid held a large razor. , and went to the meeting with a wakizashi tied around his waist. When Hideyoshi saw the beautiful Chiyo and the maid holding weapons, he praised her: "The wife of the Tachibana family is so vigilant even in normal times, she is really a female husband~" !'
Then he moved to Gongyong Village in the south of Liuhe City between 1594 and 1597.

After defeating Nabeshima for a while, they retreated back to Liuhe due to lack of troops. At this time, in order to defend the territory, Chichiyo wore purple armor, held a large razor, and wore a small wakizashi at the waist, leading a female iron artillery team wearing Tang red uniforms. More than 200 people went north from Miyanaga Village, and everyone was wearing the "early entry" (ammunition cartridge?) iron cannon invented by Doxue. They used iron cannons to hold back the Nabeshima Army's military force with collective rapid fire in the northern suburbs of Liuhe territory. The "early entry" invented by Daoxue can make the iron cannon fire three times faster than ordinary iron cannons, and Chichiyo also learned the formation of troops from an early age, making it impossible for Nabeshima to advance, and the entire army could only surround Liuhe. city.
Afterwards, in order to delay the attack of Kato's army, she led 800 people to Enoura Street to intercept Kato's army, causing Kato Kiyomasa to bypass Shiratori Street instead of marching from the original Setaka Street, successfully delaying time.

Nickname - One-eyed Dragon
Birth
The eldest son of Date Terubong, a famous general in the late Warring States Period.
Speaking of Masamune's birth, it is quite legendary.
Masamune in KYO has a strong and powerful appearance, but is delicate and gentle in his heart. His concern for Ming, who couldn't keep up with the madness when he was a child, is really touching. In my opinion, Brahma is the most powerful among the four holy heavens. It’s humane

Date Masamune 1567-1636
Masamune’s mother She was the daughter of Mogami Yoshimori, the powerful daimyo of Oshu at the time, and the younger sister of Mogami Yoshimitsu. At that time, the Date family wanted to marry the Mogami family, so they sent the rebellious Nakano Muneki as an envoy to the Mogami family to propose marriage. Nakano Muneki conspired with Mogami Yoshimori and Mogami Yoshihime. He pretended that Yoshihime had been secretly in love with Terumune for several years and agreed to a marriage. After giving birth to a son with Terumune, he left Terumune and took his son back to Yamagata Castle, Mogami's family. . After the two got married, they spent their honeymoon at Kameoka Manjusri Hall (Higashichi County). At night, Yi Ji dreamed of the one-eyed monk Wan Hairen who wanted to be reincarnated, and she became pregnant because of this auspicious dream. After ten months of pregnancy, Masamune was born in the 10th year of Yonglu (1567). His father, Huizong, named his son "Brahma Ten Maru".
Childhood
After Brahmamaru was born, his father Huizong firmly believed that his son was the reincarnation of Wanhairen, and provided him with the best teacher and future right-hand man - Katakura Ko Juro Keetsuna and Date Togoro Narumi. When he was five years old, Masamune contracted blisters. Although he survived, he lost the sight in his right eye. This made Huizong even more convinced that Masamune was the reincarnation of the one-eyed monk Mankaito, but the one-eyed man was disliked by his mother Yoshiki. All maternal love was transferred to the second son Zhumaru, who was 11 months younger than Masamune. When he was young, Masamune was educated by the eminent monk Toriya Zen Master specially invited by his father, which provided Masamune with the best learning conditions and enabled him to become a famous general in the late Warring States Period.
