The 13 Lords of Kamakura However, there was a scene where Minamoto no Yoritomo and Yoritomo were impressed again, but when Yoritomo began to be called Kamakura-dono, he gradually began to see the feud.
However, it is a well-known fact that he was the greatest meritorious person who destroyed the Heike in the Battle of Dannoura, and he was excellent in swordsmanship and tactical. Why was Minamoto no Yoritomo branded as a rebel, even though there were some feuds between the brothers? ??
Birth of Minamoto no Yoshitsune and historical background
1159 , Minamoto no Yoshitomo and his concubinage [ Tokiwa Gozen ] Was born between Minamoto no Yoshitsune was.
Yoritomo was a half-brother, Yoritomo was the third son, and Yoshitsune was the ninth son. The childhood name is [Ushiwakamaru] [Kuro] Was called.
Japan around this time was [ Heiji rebellion ], Genji, led by his father, Yoshitomo, was defeated, and Taira no Kiyomori, who was the master of the Heike family, executed Yoshitomo. In addition, the eldest son, Yoshihira, and the second son, Tomonaga, who also fought with him, were beheaded and killed in the Heiji rebellion.
The third son, Yoritomo, was exiled to Izu, although he was exiled from death.
Actually, at this time, Yoshitsune was supposed to be executed as well as Yoshitomo, but because her mother, Tokiwa Gozen, who was a beautiful woman, began to be seen in Kiyomori, [Imawaka] [Ushiwaka] [Otsu] Young] The three of them were helped, and each was priestly priest and taken to the temple.
At this time, he was 7 years old and was entrusted to Kurama-dera Temple in Kyoto. ], And I was expected to be an academic priest and worked hard every day to study. At this point, I had little acquaintance with Yoritomo.
Decided to overthrow the Heike and met Hidehira Fujiwara and others
By the time Minamoto no Yoshitsune was 15, he learned that he was a child of Minamoto no Yoshitomo and his father was executed by the Heike. [ Gikeiki According to [ A priest who pitied that Genji's blood would be cut off, he told Yoshitsune that the Heike was an enemy . ] Is written.
Yoshitsune, who decided to overthrow the Heike, escaped from the temple every night and began to devote himself to martial arts. His actions eventually became known to the Heike, and when he was 16, he escaped from the temple and disappeared suddenly.
Yoshitsune, who had been traveling from one country to another, decided to aim for Hiraizumi, Mr. Fujiwara Oshu.
Therefore, Yoshitsune was the third generation of Mr. Fujiwara Oshu, Hidehira Fujiwara . It was decided to meet and be hidden.
It is said that Yoshitsune was a meaningful person for Genji and Heike in this action of Hidehira, so he thought that he would work in favor of Mr. Fujiwara Oshu as a trump card when something happened.
In this way, Yoshitsune was brought up with Hidehira's children.
Meanwhile, in 1180, his brother, Yoritomo, was recruited.
Yoshitsune, who heard Yoritomo's troops, decided to go out immediately! Hidehira Fujiwara, who has been raised like his own child, attaches a samurai who can rely on Yoshitsune and sends it to the Kise River.
And Yoshitsune met his brother Minamoto no Yoritomo for the first time at the age of 22, and finally started to move for the destruction of his nemesis, Heike. This was also a taiga drama.
A feud with my brother Minamoto no Yoritomo
Minamoto no Yoshitsune, who excels in tactics and courage, quickly became famous for his overwhelming strength in the Genpei War. However, his older brother, Yoritomo, began to feel distrust.
The reason is ...
I thought his brother's servant was my servant
His older brother, Yoritomo, became the master of the Genji and promoted the unification of the Genji at the same time as the destruction of the Taira clan. For that purpose, even Genji who shared the blood was punished if he could divide the blood, and sometimes he unified the Genji family by strong means.
Yoshitsune, on the other hand, says he wanted to be in the same position as his brother as his bloody brother. However, from Yoritomo's point of view, he is a child of Seishitsu, a legitimate pedigree, and a lord of Genji. He didn't like the relationship between his brothers, and he was dissatisfied with Yoshitsune, who the Lord couldn't show his attitude.
In the battle, I won only by surprise attack
[ Battle of Mikusayama ] Then, set fire to the entire Yamano and make a surprise attack, [ Battle of Ichinodani ] Then, a surprise attack was carried out from the cliff and brought victory to the Genji army.
As a result, although it is all right, many of these surprise attacks were carried out at Yoshitsune's discretion, and Yoritomo did not like this.
I was given the official position by Pope Shirakawa
Minamoto no Yoritomo did not allow the Genji family to take office in the imperial court without consent so that the order in the territory would not be disturbed. Yoshitsune broke such a rule and received the official position as he was told by Go-Shirakawa.
Furthermore, [ Kajiwara Kagetoki ] Was tempting Yoritomo to say, "The last enemy is Yoshitsune." Yoshitsune came to be regarded as Yoritomo's enemy.
It falls to Oshu, but at the end it is seppuku. .. ..
Yoshitsune, who was recognized as an enemy by Yoritomo, moved from place to place, but finally moved to Hidehira Fujiwara, who was taken care of as a child.
However, Hidehira, who was supportive of Yoshitsune, also fell ill.
At the time of the dying, Hidehira explained that it would be impossible for Mr. Fujiwara Oshu to rule this land anymore, and left behind saying that the Fujiwara brothers should cooperate and rule with Yoshitsune at the top. However, this wish of Hidehira never came true, and was rebelled by Yasuhira Fujiwara.
Immersed in the discord between Yoshitsune and the Fujiwara brothers, Yoritomo requested Yasuhira Fujiwara to subdue Yoshitsune, feeding on the relief of the territory. Yasuhira, who agreed to subdue, sent 30,000 troops to Yoshitsune and cornered him.
Yoshitsune, who was cornered, entered Hiraizumi's jibutsudo, stabbed his wife and daughter, and septated himself, and reached the end.
He was 30 years old ...
Hiraizumi, the place where he was raised when he was young and relied on at the end of his life, would have been a place like his hometown for Yoshitsune. Even now, there are traces of Yoshitsune's life in the Chusonji Konjikido, where the body of Hidehira Fujiwara is enshrined, and the Benkei-do, where the wooden statues of Yoshitsune and Benkei are dedicated.
