@@stevewarwick2103 like I'm your teacher or something like that, go find by yourself & read about it. But if you can't and then I will elaborate about it
Nobunaga Oda was a unique man for the times. As we saw, if Hideyoshi didn't serve Nobunaga, he would have likely never became anything. The Imagawa, like nearly every other daimyo of the time, saw no worth in the peasant class. Nobunaga; however, was different. He was not beholden to tradition. He used to be called the "fool of Owari" because he did and said whatever he wanted, oftentimes outlandishly, in contrary to Japanese culture. He was "rude" and "unceremonious" at his father's funeral, which ended with the ritual suicide of one of his guardians in protest. However, Nobunaga saw Hideyoshi's talents, not his class, and elevated him...allowing him to accomplish great deeds.
This is the benefits if valuing skill and competence over mindless dedication to decorum. Even if someone is a rude jackass, if their skills are true and they're willing to help and not screw you over, you should always accept their help.
There is a legend that when Hideyoshi first served Nobunaga, he was a sandal bearer. This was first recorded in the late 18th century and is therefore unreliable. However, its a useful anecdote to emphasize that Hideyoshi initially served the Oda clan as a private servant, not a samurai, and then rose to power with astonishing speed
There are also rumors that he was not only a peasant, but a raider, before he joined with Nobunaga, which would not be uncharacteristic for a low-born peasant born in this chaotic time in order to survive.
I love the way they managed to conjure up documents from absolutely nowhere that made Hideyoshi eligible for the name Toyotomi which gave him more legitimacy as a ruler. His name was 'Hashiba' beforehand.
yea...but his common blood didn't allow him to take on the title of "Shogun"...having to settle for "Taiko" instead, which didn't have as much political appeal and allowed for clans like the Tokugawa to snatch power away.
@@bvbxiong5791not true taiko kanpaku meant hideyoshi was like father to emperor of japan, granted him instant rights over royal family, their temple associates and more. i ve heard of ur such statement from 20th ce japanese publication prob based on shogunate propaganda
Thank you for the great video. Just imagine how terrible life must have been back then in Japan, whether you were a peasant, a fighter or even a noble. War and war and war ...
i swear, K&G somehow always makes a video on a piece of historical content which i have interests in at the time. Legit just watched a 1 hour video the other day about the three unifiers of Japan (Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, Tokugawa), and the Varna video came out an hour after i watched a History Marche vid on the same battle.
Interesting that this series starts with Hideyoshi even though the consensus for the timeline of the sengoku jidai range from the Onin war in 1467 to the siege and fall of Osaka castle in 1615. But that is a really long and tumultuous time period with so much detail so it can be forgiven.
@@iexist3919 You are correct. I literally forgot about that. That feels so long ago because of how much content has come out since. But that was a great mini series for arguably the most important figure in Japanese history.
@@KingsandGenerals Ah I see. That'll be a great long form video for sengoku jidai. The Shogunate channel has a great series on the sengoku period. It's super detailed and great for the nerds that are really into this period but the illustrations and detailed maps you all employ will be helpful for those less familiar with this period to understand the tangled mess and rapidly evolving dynamic of Japan during this era.
This channel's quality is getting crazy, I love the maps, they are so pretty and informational, all the special effects, the little info cards, the figures and so on. I have been watching for a few years now, and it is amazing to see how far this channel has come!
For those interested in a novelization of Hideyoshi's life and career similar in the style of Romance of Three Kingdoms, search for Eiji Yoshikawa's novel 'Taiko'. The author also wrote Musashi, a dramatized account of the famous swordsman.
The first half was rushed. It would have helped having indicators of his rise from a soldier/sandal bearer to General. For instance, when did he officially become a samurai?
On learning about the war era of Japan, please note that the Bushido code has not been invented yet. The code was invented by the Edo shogunate in order to achieve political stability and settlement among Samurais because they were now the rulers, not the warriors anymore. Before that, Samurais were much more like Yakuza and mafias; strong bond of family but always working for themselves at the bottom of their hearts, always waiting for the moment to betray and push their way to the top. Therefore, you will see many cases in which a Samurai abandons a family and starts serving another one. This was considered normal in the war era. People back then pretty much evaluated one another by their actual skills and political charisma instead of blindly being loyal to one family, except in the case their ancestors have already served that family for generations. The most typical example is Tokugawa Hideyasu himself, who united the nation and started Edo Shogunate. He was originally a small warlord under the Imagawa family but later betrayed them and joined the Oda army.
I read where that he left Owari Province at the age of 7 after his father died and entered the service of Matsushita Yukitsuna. A local lord (i.e. daimyo) of the Imagawa clan, not Imagawa Yoshimoto himself. When returned to Owari province at 21, then entered the service of the Oda clan as an ashigaru before becoming Nobunaga's 'sandal bearer'. It was after the Battle of Okehazama that he was elevated to that position.
What this video won’t tell you is that Hideyoshi was actually two people - a lovable trickster whose greed for spirit stones got the better of him, and a half yokai whose gender went unrecorded in the annals of history.
Ok a few errors 10:03, nagahama should be Odani, and the Azai clan is seen coming from wakasa which would have been at this time the wakasa takeda clan. And Odani was the “capital” of the azai clan. And when it was conquered it was renamed nagahama by hideoshi out of respect to nobunaga
There's game called "Great Conqueror 2 : Shogun" And it's a Mobile Game you can Play the campaign mode and Conquest mode in Conquest mode you can choose any clan that You want to play like Oda, Toyotomi, Tokugawa, Hojo, Takeda and many more
This is a cute intro. However Hideyoshi has been a logistics genius and an extremely quick learner who also was highly respected as a tea master and various Japanese designs. This vid also did not cover Hideyoshi as soon as assigned his own fief circa 1570 utilized the whole Biwa Lake for his new city plan. Hideyoshi is a builder's maniac who constantly founded improvement of castle and city development. Anyway I hope people learn about this genius in World history not for his cruelty and invasion of Korean Peninsula towards end of his Life, but how much he brought to a new order unseen in Japan. The more I learned of history the more I admire Hideyoshi and his deeds.
To learn more about the intrigues and the complicated political machinations of the Sengoku Jidai era I suggest you watch Sanadamaru, the life of Yukimura Sanada one of the legendary last Samurai to truly exist.
finally a detailed documentary about hideyoshis exploit in middle age japan. as personally out of the 3 i view hideyoshi as the greatest of the three as he is the one to unify completely the country with his wits and cunning where's oda wasn't able to do and iyeyassu avoiding battle to him ( would prove that the later knew its not best to go against the guy ) the later just picked up japan continues his the legacy when hideyoshi has been deceased
He was willing to put in work and be in a position of servitude , be underestimated and probably looked at with disdain for a long time, until he found the perfect opportunities to strike
In the map teritory of azai clan actually located in northern omi (teritory depicting as rokaku clan or east and north of lake biwa) while wakasa owned by junior branch of takeda clan
Hideyoshi is generally considered as “hito-tarashi” (magnetic person), which is why he could recruit competent subordinate busho (Ex. Kanbe Kuroda, his strategist). Hideyoshi could be just a cruel & ambitious man who “served” only to Nobunaga. Most of Hideyoshi’s policies followed Nobunaga’s ideas. That explains Hideyoshi’s political motivation. However, his autocratic administration relied too much on his personal charisma probably. Also, Toyotomi administration’s collapse results from a division between his bureaucrats (ex. Mitunari) & generals (ex. Kiyomasa), Ieyasu’s ambition, and most possibly his heir problem (he made enemies & lost trust from some daimyo due to “Hidetugu jiken”, in which he forced his heir Hidetugu and her ~ 30 family members to seppuku) Some Japanese historians argue that Hideyoshi in last years often lost his temper and daimyo started to shift to Tokugawa’s leadership. Nobunaga: revolutionist, Hideyoshi: unifier, Ieyasu: foxy politician. Sengoku-jidai is more like a story with characters in each area, so, if you want to know more, Nobunaga no yabou (ambition of Nobunaga, simulation game) would be a great start. Sorry if my English is immature.
Supposedly, Mitsuhide was a devote Buddhist and Nogunaga was not. Mitsuhide might have been upset at Nogunaga for the utter slaughter that took place at Nagashima. Also, supposedly, Mitsuhide's own mother was kicked to death in a fit of rage by Nogunaga. These slights caused intense hatred to build until he betrayed Nobunaga and Mitsuhide became the "13 day Shogun."
@@williamyoung9401 I think you mean the siege of Mt Hiei. Nagashima may have contributed to it but it was Mt hiei that earned him the nickname demon king. Also, Nobunaga didn’t technically kill Mistuhide’s mother. She was given to the Hatano clan as a hostage. Hideharu and his brothers were executed by Nobunaga so the Hatano executed her in retaliation.
If you haven't checked out the Netflix documentary, Age of Samurai: Battle for Japan, I highly recommend it. I know Netflix has a mixed record when it comes to their "documentaries," but that one is pretty good. A few omissions, but that's why we have Kings and Generals!
The Azai clan territory seems misplaced too far to the west. Their stronghold of Odani is roughly a short distance north of Nagahama, east of Lake Biwa.
