The world of the Warring States was an era in which daimyo battled each other to expand their territory.
Due to the temporary alliance, the children were still regarded as a tool for political marriage between strangers.
Nobunaga Oda Firstborn, Nobutada Kun and Shingen Takeda 6 girls, Matsuhime ..
When the two are used for the Oda-Takeda alliance, a few years later they will be separated due to the abolition of the alliance.
And the tragedy didn't end there ...
Engagement of 11 and 7 years old!
The alliance between Oda and Takeda!
1565 , Oda Nobunaga And Shingen Takeda Because the territories are in contact with each other, "marriage alliance" Try to tie.
Nobunaga's sister is sapling Castellan Naoren Toyama Nobunaga is adopted by a daughter who is married to (Kantaro Naegi) and was born between them.
And Shingen-san's 4th son, Tsugu It's also Katsuyori Suwa (Later Takeda Katsuyori) will become a regular room and an alliance will be established.
But only two years later , Katsuyori's Seishitsu will die ..
In order to strengthen the alliance, the two families will engage with Nobunaga's eldest son, Nobutada-kun, and Shingen's six daughter, Matsuhime.
The two were only 11 and 7 years old.
Along with the abolition of the alliance, the engagement is canceled!
Although it was a political marriage called the "marriage alliance," the two young people are said to have deepened their love for each other by exchanging gifts and texts.
It is generally accepted that they never met, but because there are unclear points in Nobutada-kun's actions, there is also a confusing episode in which the two of them may have met secretly.
Meanwhile, an event occurs that tears the relationship between the two.
1572 , Shingen Takeda Is Ieyasu Tokugawa Mikawa We will start invading (currently Aichi). It is a large-scale invasion by Mr. Shingen " Nishigami " Strategy " Is called.
However, for Nobunaga Oda, Ieyasu was also an alliance partner, so he dispatched 3,000 reinforcements.
Because of this, Nobutada-kun and Matsuhime's engagement was canceled by Shingen-san . It will be done.
If you look only at this, you can get a glimpse of Shingen-san's terrible weather, but this is exactly like the Warring States period.
The world of the Warring States, when I thought that I had brought the two young people together, separated them in just over five years.
The destruction of the Takeda family and the change of Honnoji!
1573 , Takeda Shingen wins in "Operation Nishigami", but often hemoptysis from around Noda Castle. Will be repeated.
And when he was forced to withdraw because he had no chance of recovering even after medical treatment, he died on his way home. I have done it.
The decline and destruction of the Takeda family!
Shingen said in his will, "Hiding his own death for three years, Kenshin Uesugi ). Rely on! I have left to say. You are very worried about the future of the Takeda family.
1575 , That worry is " Nagashino " Battle " It will hit the mark.
Katsuyori Takeda who inherited the family The Takeda army led by Mr. Oda Nobunaga And Ieyasu Tokugawa It will be a big defeat to Mr. Allied Forces. The death toll of the Oda Tokugawa Allied Forces was less than 100, while the death toll of the Takeda Army was more than 10,000.
It's a battle between the famous Takeda cavalry and the Oda gun corps.
The Takeda clan, who lost the battle, are in trouble due to the offensive of Oda and Tokugawa.
Matsuhime is her brother, Nishina Morinobu , who is three years older than her. Takato To the castle (now Nagano), 1582 Nobunaga's "Koushu Conquest" When is started, Shimpu It will extend to the castle (currently Yamanashi) and then to Tama, Musashi Province (currently Hachioji, Tokyo).
Due to the conquest of Koshu, the Takeda family met Oda's total attack and was destroyed by Katsuyori's suicide. I have done it.
And ironically, the general general of the Oda army was Nobutada Oda, who was 26 years old and succeeded the reign of the Oda clan.
The second farewell due to the Honnoji Incident!
Matsuhime probably had her feelings for Nobutada for a long time, and she refused all the stories of the marriage that had happened several times.
However, it was the same for Nobutada.
When she learns that Matsuhime is safe in Musashi Province, she sends her messenger to Matsuhime.
This was probably the best moment of their lives for them.
The moment when each other's feelings, which had been torn apart miserably, finally came to fruition, was just around the corner.
But fate was very cruel ...
Only 2 months after the destruction of the Takeda family , That famous incident that hunted down Nobunaga Oda to suicide occurs.
Vassal, Akechi Mitsuhide Rebellion "Honnoji Incident" is.
When Nobutada hears the news that his father, Nobunaga, was killed at Honnoji, he himself greets him at Nijo Castle.
However, when he sees that the good fight does not come true, sadly he is the same self-blade as his father. I chose the path of.
Matsuhime is on her way to meet Nobutada-san, who has been soliciting her feelings for many years. I was supposed to hear.
After Matsuhime ...
Matsuhime, who lost Nobutada, is 22 years old . " Shinshoni " She calls herself and she continues to pray for the souls of the Takedas and Nobutada. There are two letters in her name.
One theory is that the child born between Nobutada and his concubine is actually a child with Matsuhime . It is also said.
Is it a fantasy created by posterity people pessimistic about the love between the two who never met, or was they really able to overlap Aise?
Only two people know the answer ...
