Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The second of the unifying warlords of Japan and a prime example of Rags to Riches. Born Kinoshita Tokichiro, he starts his career by being a sandal-bearer of Oda Nobunaga. He eventually gets drafted into Nobunaga's army, changed his name to 'Hashiba Hideyoshi' (taken from two of Nobunaga's retainer names: Shibata Katsuie and Niwa Nagahide) and his resourcefulness becomes an asset to the army. When Nobunaga was murdered, Hideyoshi got to his killer Akechi Mitsuhide first within 13 days and annihilated his army. From that point on, Hideyoshi continued Nobunaga's conquest and succeeded in unifying Japan. He changed his name to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and became known as the Taiko (since he was of lower class stock, he could not become Shogun). As if that wasn't enough, shortly after unifying Japan, Hideyoshi tried conquering Korea, but that failed spectacularly. He died of sickness, and from that stems the conflict that would lead to the famous Battle of Sekigahara, which ends with Hideyoshi's subordinate Tokugawa Ieyasu victorious and replaces Hideyoshi's family in ruling Japan. |
