Katou Kiyomasa's character story.

Katou Kiyomasa's first feat was accomplished in the battle of Xiuji attacking Tottori City in the ninth year of Tianzheng (158 1). Because of this feat, Zheng Qing was rewarded with one hundred stones. The following year, in the tenth year of the reign of Heaven (1582), Yuchai Xiuji attacked Gaosongcheng, a gateway under preparation. In the battle against Guanshan City on the periphery of Takamatsu, he took the lead and won the battle flag. After this war, with the help of Kato Tiger, the name of upright brave man spread slowly in Xiuji Army.

Just when Mei Xiuji and Maori were preparing to fight, the change of Benneng Temple broke out. After Nobuyuki Oda's sudden death, a battle of inheritance broke out between Yukio Hatoyama and Shibata Katsuie. In the decisive battle in Jian Yue, the "Seven Cannons of Jianyue" led by Katou Kiyomasa and Fukushima masanari made great contributions and became famous all over the world (at that time, 22-year-old Katou Kiyomasa was the overseer of Shouren Mountain Road). After the war of Jane Yue, the Qing Dynasty was promoted from the head of the object to the head of the plan. Xiuji gave him 500 iron cannons and 20 points of strength, and gave Shilu 3000 stones. Because Fukushima masanari is bigger than Zheng Zheng, he wants to eat five thousand stones, two thousand stones more than Zheng Zheng. Zheng Qing was very dissatisfied with this and once refused to accept Hideyoshi's reward.

After the war, Ishida Mitsunari became active in Yuehui Association. In the following years, with the expansion of Xiuzhi forces to Shikoku and Kyushu, Tri-cities and Zheng Qing each played an increasingly important role in Chen Feng's regime. In the 13th year of Tianzheng (1585), Zheng Qing took part in the war to conquer Chousokabe Motochika as a supervisor of the four countries. On his way to war, Zheng Qing built a temple in Nanbo's hometown in memory of his dead father Zhong Qing.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi's war to reunify Japan ended in the 1990s. In a peaceful world, a competent official like Ishida Mitsunari is more useful. As a trusted minister of Hideyoshi, he played his talents, so he stayed in the power center of Toyotomi regime for many years. Katou Kiyomasa is different from Ishida Mitsunari. As a general in the field, he charged all over the country. Ishida Mitsunari and Katou Kiyomasa tried their best to inherit the legacy of the Toyotomi family. Maybe Hideyoshi had such a comprehensive consideration when he brought them to Changbincheng.

Katou Kiyomasa is one of the few people who are seldom criticized behind his back. Today, local people in Kumamoto still regard Toranosuke as "upright". It is no exaggeration to say that the local people's love for Katou Kiyomasa has formed an "honest belief". Sinna Zhongyuan, a Warring States military commander with high reputation in Kyushu, is far from being loved by the people. If there is any historical figure whose popularity among Japanese people is shorter than that of Katou Kiyomasa, I'm afraid Saigō Takamori is the only one. In Japan, Katou Kiyomasa is a perfect synonym for Gao Daquan. If someone is unfortunately placed on the opposite side of honesty, then he is almost certainly the most despicable person.

During the Edo period, Katou Kiyomasa became the object of Japanese worship. At that time, Kyoto published the guidebook of Kumamoto Temple, which is a pure bodhi place. There is no direct connection between Zheng Qing's high prestige and his worship of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, which originated entirely from the Japanese. During the Edo period, in Kumamoto under the rule of Hosokawa Morihiro, farmers regarded Zheng Qing as the patron saint of agriculture, and almost every village had a shrine dedicated to Katou Kiyomasa. After World War II, with the surge of overseas immigrants in Kumamoto Prefecture, 50 Qingjing shrines have been built in Japan and abroad. On the night of Katou Kiyomasa's death, the meeting held in this temple of Bodhi College was packed. Every bear regarded Zheng Zheng as his benefactor, and his belief in Zheng Zheng was deeply rooted in Xiong Xin. In the early days of Taisho and Showa, people hung flags painted with "Honest Tiger Retreat" (Katou Kiyomasa's tiger hunting activities in North Korea during the Japanese rebellion in Feichen and Ding You) on the Dragon Boat Festival. At that time, with the rampant militarism, the worship of Katou Kiyomasa became a way to promote militarism. In the tenth year of Showa (1935), Kumamoto politician Anda Kenzo built Sanxian Hall to worship Zheng Qing. Although this place preached the great cause of "Wu Shen" in name, it actually served as a place for Kumamoto local government to poison people with militarism. The riot after the fat was finally quelled by the encirclement and suppression of Kyushu famous soldiers and the efforts of Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga. /kloc-the heads of more than 0/000 national civil servants, large and small, were sent to Hideyoshi. Unfortunately, Sassa Narimasa was executed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi for "dereliction of duty". He committed suicide by caesarean section in the photo of Zizaki. More than 5,700 fat descendants were killed in this riot. Relatives of the deceased and thugs who escaped cursed Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga who slaughtered their relatives in the streets. Realizing this, Qing distributed notices about people's safety everywhere on the collar, announcing: "I will bring all people to be kind with me."

Let's not talk about how to appease fat people here. Shortly after he and Konishi Yukinaga took office, a large-scale slap in the face happened in Cao Tian Peninsula under the leadership of the President. Cao Tian Party in Xiao Ye, Qi Zhi, Shenpu, Sakamoto and Cao Tian is called Cao Tian Five. They rebelled because they didn't want to undertake the labor of building Yutu City in Konishi Yukinaga. /kloc-In September of 0/6, Konishi Yukinaga sent troops across the sea to attack Tzu Chi County of Zhixing. As soon as the vanguard troops of the Small Western Army landed in Baguipu, they were immediately hit head-on by the Qizhi Party. After the fierce fighting, almost all the soldiers who landed were killed, and the main commander, Kazuo Wen Tai, was killed. When the repression was unfavorable, Konishi Yukinaga had to turn to Katou Kiyomasa for help. This sudden incident exposed the president's weakness of not being good at military affairs, which also became the reason why Zheng Qing despised him in the future.

After Katou Kiyomasa promised to send troops to help, he immediately led 1,500 troops to land in Chuankou. At this time, Konishi Yukinaga was advancing four thousand five hundred troops to besiege Qizhicheng. In this slap in the face of China people, which is called "a match made in heaven, a match made in grass", the most wonderful scene is that Katou Kiyomasa had a "one-on-one fight" with Qi Zhilin, the first valiant soldier under his command. Zheng Qing and Sam Tan Zheng are located in Formuban, near Qi Zhi. This struggle is described in Zheng Qingji: "When the bomb saw Zheng Qing's joy, the flying horse stepped forward and stabbed him with a gun." Just as the tip of the bomb was about to hit Zheng Qing, he shouted, raised his hand and stabbed Sam's bomb, and then killed two soldiers of the bomb.

However, according to Cao Tian folklore, it was the Sam bomb that prevailed in the duel. Just as the bomb was on the ground to take his head, his entourage arrived. They asked in the dark, "Is the main hall of the bomb above or below?" . The bomb didn't answer in time because of the language barrier. And Zheng Qing replied: "Below!" So the attendant of the bomb killed the bomb by mistake. Which of these two statements should we believe? I think everyone will make their own choices.

The bombs fired by the Qing army at Mushan are disintegrating the morale of the defenders, and Qizhicheng will soon fall. After the capture of the city, the allied forces with the viceroy turned to attack the seed Yuan in this capital, and the resistance was crushed within five days. The collapse of Qi Zhi Party and Cao Tian Party prompted the rest of the people in Cao Tian Peninsula to surrender, and the slap in the face of Tian Zheng Cao Tian Ren also came to an end. However, things are not over. Many years later, on the construction site in kumamoto castle, some workers were muttering "This city will be my thing" while working. While people in Zheng Qing were interrogating the man, Kimura's son, a young man named Yoko Goro, attacked Zheng Qing when he was near Zheng Qing. After the failed Yoko was captured, the soldiers threw him into a dry well and threw boulders into the well to crush him. I didn't expect Yokosuga Goro to hold the boulder with his hand because of his extraordinary power. The honest man felt very helpless and asked the workers present: "How can I put him to death?" One person replied, "put sand." Finally, the brave young Yoko Goro was buried alive in the sand and died.

This kind of story about the resistance struggle of fat queens is widely circulated in Caotian area. After the Guanyuan War, Cao Peninsula changed from Konishi Yukinaga territory to Katou Kiyomasa territory, and Zheng Zheng begged Konka to allow him to exchange Tiancao Peninsula for a land of rich countries, so Zheng Zheng finally broke off diplomatic relations with Tiancao Peninsula. Since then, the brutal struggle in the Cao Tian Peninsula has continued until ...

As the saying goes, "soldiers are also cunning", bullying and being afraid of hard work were common in the Warring States period. During the Guanyuan War, when the Qing army attacked Aiteng Temple City, a small western town, it deceived Jia Feiqiu Zheng, the owner of Wei Yan, and said, "If you come to assist Aiteng Temple City, I will guarantee your present position." So, Zheng Qing took advantage of Qiu Zheng's leaving the city and captured Wei Yan City. This record can be found in "The Picture of Ya Bu", but generally these things are not mentioned when introducing Zheng Zheng's deeds. After the riot subsided, Toyotomi Hideyoshi ordered Sassa Narimasa, who was mainly responsible, to have a caesarean section, and then re-divided the territory of this fat country. In addition to the ball mill county to Xiang Liang Changmei, the rest of the land is divided equally by Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga, with Kato in the north receiving 250,000 stones and Xiaoxi in the south receiving 240,000 stones. There is another way of saying this. Hideyoshi once asked Zheng Qing face to face: "Do you want to be a country or a fat country?" Zheng Qing already knew Hideyoshi's "ambition" to go to Daming from the chief executive's office in Asano Nagaakira. He sincerely replied to Xiuji: "I only wish I could get the second half of the country, so that I can be the pioneer of the Ming Dynasty!" " Hideyoshi was overjoyed after hearing this.

Qing Zhenghe and the President took office on May 14th in the 16th year of Tianzheng (1588). During this period, Zheng Qing and the envoys sent by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, headed by Asano Nagaakira Nagano, conducted a compulsory land inspection. In this land inspection, the courtiers hiding in the countryside after the riots were searched out one by one and killed. After fattening, the envoys stayed until the harvest season in 10, and finally returned to Osaka with 540 million stone fruits after fattening. Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga live in Jiben and Yutu respectively. The city where Zheng Qing lives is the place where the local rich have lived for generations. Wei Bencheng is located in the northern suburb of the former fat queen state capital. In ancient times, it was also known as Jin Xiong, Wei Zhuang, Wei Bu and Wei Tian. In ancient times, it was the center of Kyushu aborigines-"Bear Attack". After Kato and Xiaoxi gain weight, the top priority is to adjust their collars. In addition to rectifying Morimoto's Ueno-machi, Masataka Shimizu also managed Kikuchi-gawa, which has been troubled for many years. Kikuchi River is a big river in the north of the country. Although the Ju Chi River is the source of life in the fertile Ju Chi Plain, it is a Zeguo near the mouth of the Ming Sea. Katou Kiyomasa's harnessing of the Ju Chi River not only solved the problem of river flooding, but also brought a large area of fertile land for himself. There is a south-flowing Shirakawa next to Sakamoto. In order to protect Xiamachi from floods, the Qing Dynasty was building a tall and solid dam on the north bank of Shirakawa. In order to transport the materials needed for the construction of Shimonomachi, Kiyomasa presided over the opening of a waterway from Kumamoto to Gao Qiao and Tianjin.

One of the biggest advantages of water conservancy projects in Hou Fei is its durability. A considerable number of water conservancy facilities are still used by local people today after 400 years of scouring. After every flood, the local people in danger can't help but say, "This is a fair and decent blessing!" Whenever the river bank breaks, they will angrily ask government officials: "Why didn't you gadgets of modern technology fall down after hundreds of years?" However, when local people are enjoying the benefits of water conservancy, they seldom think that every stone here is soaked with the blood and tears of Korean craftsmen who were plundered by Zheng Zheng.

Hideyoshi ordered Konishi Yukinaga and Katou Kiyomasa to rectify their territories and restore the people's strength in the shortest possible time, not out of concern for the people. At this point, he has been deeply immersed in the delusion of "going to the Ming Dynasty". His plan is to use Hou Fei as an important base and station for invading the mainland. The task of Kato and Nishi is to extract the strength of the people as much as possible and expand the army. Therefore, expanding their own retainer groups has become a top priority for the two.

Trade with Annan and Siam

In the war to help the President suppress Cao Tian Party, Zheng Qing witnessed the embarrassment of Cao Tian people's life. Zheng Qing thinks that the governor's blackmail caused the civil servants' riots. Zheng Qing despised the president's evil policies in order to build a utopian city, and later he despised them more and more.

In the eighth generation, Konishi Yukinaga built Maidaocheng into an overseas trading port (in the first year of Yuanhe, the edo shogunate issued the order of "one country, one city". After fattening, Maidaocheng was specially reserved except kumamoto castle for the need of guarding against Satsuma's governance and coastal defense). In addition to the trade with barbarians, the president also wants to use this city as a missionary center for Jesuits in The Fat Queen. At the same time, it starts from Nanguan, the border of Zhufei in the north, and ends at the city used to defend the Kim family in Samo Island in the south.

Katou Kiyomasa always gives people the impression that he is a general in the war, but in fact, he is a rare official with both civil and military skills under Hideyoshi. Hideyoshi appointed Zheng Zheng as the chief planner, because he took a fancy to his advantages in arithmetic and also affirmed his good financial management ability. However, due to Ishida Mitsunari's monopoly position in Chen Feng's regime, the administrative ability of clean government was rarely used. In Hideyoshi's eyes, only war is the most suitable for Kato to help, and this situation will continue until Guanyuan joins the war.

When Zheng Qing ruled the Fat Queen, his income actually reached 750,000 stone. To do this, it is impossible to rely solely on farming, and the honest financial resources come from overseas trade. Although an upright man hates Christianity and is skeptical of that man, it does not mean that he is a conformist, on the contrary, he is a pioneering Lord. Zheng Qing's merchant ships are as far away as Annan, Siam and other Southeast Asian countries, and Kumamoto still keeps the letters written by Ayutthaya monarch and Annan local officials to Zheng Qing. Japan invaded Korea for the first time.

1592 (two years of Wanli, twenty-five years of Li Yun, the founding emperor of Korea) On May 23rd, Hideyoshi launched a war of aggression against Korea. Because that year was a "non-Chen" year for North Korea, a "non-Chen Great Patriotic War" for South Korea and a "Wanli Korean War" for China, Japan divided the two wars into "Leuven War" and "Evergreen War".

After careful preparation, the Japanese army came to China. Army 16 corps160,000 people, water army more than 40,000 people. First of all, five legions crossed the sea from Nagoya, with Konishi Yukinaga, who is proficient in Korean, as the leader. After that, Katou Kiyomasa in the second row, Hihiko Kuroda in the third row, Ryohiro Shimadzu in the fourth row and Fukushima masanari in the fifth row. In the navy, drunkards Jialong, Kato Jiaming and others are the leaders, and their main tasks are transportation, escort, supply support and logistics support.

expeditionary army

Since Musashi entered Tokugawa Ieyasu, hundreds of Japanese people, large and small, have gathered in Nagoya. According to the book Xiu Jigong and Nagoya Imperial Array, there were 205,585 troops assembled in Nagoya at that time. Toyotomi Hideyoshi assembled more than 300,000 troops for this war of aggression. This invading army is an unprecedented force in ancient Japanese history.

In terms of scale, the giant city built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in Nagoya is second only to Osaka, the largest Japanese city at that time. At the beginning, Hideyoshi tried to force North Korea to help him fulfill his long-cherished wish of "surpassing Daming and changing our customs in more than 400 States" through diplomatic intimidation.

On April 12, the first year of Leuven (1592), Konishi Yukinaga's First Army set off from Taepo, Tsushima Island by more than 700 warships. The next day, April 13, small western troops captured the south gate of North Korea on the day they arrived in Busan, and the defender Zheng Ba died. Before leaving for Konishi Yukinaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi told him to find a way to make peace with Li Xuanzu. Hideyoshi didn't want the war on the Korean peninsula to drag on for too long, giving the Ming Dynasty time to dispatch troops.

On April 17, the Second Army of Katou Kiyomasa and the Third Army of Kuroda landed successively. The soldiers were divided into three roads and swept through Gyeongsang and Chungcheong in southern Korea in a short time.

War and dilemma

The Japanese army's deep attack on Korea was basically undertaken by two armies, Konishi Yukinaga and Katou Kiyomasa. On April 23 and 27, Konishi Yukinaga defeated the main force of the North Korean army led by Li Yong and Shen Lang (with six town soldiers as the main force) and captured strategic places such as Shangzhou and Zhongzhou. On the 29th, Japanese generals held a military meeting in Chungju to discuss the March into Wang Jing (Seoul). At this military meeting, a head-on conflict broke out between Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga. Katou Kiyomasa attacked Konishi Yukinaga in the military discussion: "The son's success is due to the clan, not the son's strength. And your highness ordered his son and son to be pioneers every other day. What is the man on his back? Be a pioneer every other day from today to test its advantages and disadvantages. " The governor did not agree with this: "We have forced out of the capital, so we should go our separate ways and pull it out quickly." Zheng Qing scolded, "I disobeyed military orders, but I was greedy for personal gain. How can I be like a businessman? " ? The governor was furious and drew a gun to stab the righteous man. On one side, Naomashima quickly advised: "Private fighting makes people laugh at foreign countries, which is very disloyal." Matsuura Zhenxin also advised: "Your Highness has made Qing Er a pioneer, and his profound thoughts are unknown to his generation. Qing Er must know. Now two tigers are fighting for each other, benefiting the enemy and hurting me. Who committed the capital crime? "Until then, Zheng Qing and the President stopped quarreling, but the rift between them has been difficult to bridge.

On May 9, the Japanese army captured Wang Jing, which caused half of the rivers and mountains in North Korea to fall in less than a month. Shortly after the capture of Wang Jing, Katou Kiyomasa and Konishi Yukinaga continued to advance northward. The president's goal is safety, and the upright direction is to aim at the salty road. Katou Kiyomasa's second army took the lead in crushing the resistance of Han Kecheng, a soldier from the North Road, and then captured the North Korean Prince Lin Haijun and Shun Hejun in Huining. After the capture of the two princes, Qing felt that pacifying Korea was a foregone conclusion. Zheng Qing ordered the monks embedded in the army to draft a notice. The author extracts two paragraphs as follows: "Tell people in China to be widowed and lonely. I am instructed by your highness to take care of the local situation and eliminate tyranny. Good governance will save the people. Hurry back to your hometown to repair your family business, don't doubt it. " There is also: "show it to the cultural relics bureaucrats in China: I am instructed by your highness to appease this territory. Although my servant is not sensitive, I must be good at politics. If you pay off your debts and master martial arts, you will have to be appointed at all costs. Those who serve first will be rewarded. Cut it if you don't accept it Please count it. " (It can be seen that the Japanese army has maintained strict military discipline for a long time. ) After Katou Kiyomasa delivered the combat mission of Xiandao to Naomachi, Naomashima, he led 5,000 troops across Tumen River, becoming the only Japanese general who invaded China during the war. When the Qing Dynasty ushered in the two-year Luwen New Year in the process of dealing with wild animals, the situation changed.

In the second year of Luwen (1593), on the ninth day of the first month, Li, the magistrate of the Ming Dynasty, led the Ming allied forces to recover Pyongyang, and more than 12,000 people under his command were defeated in the battle of Pyongyang.

The failure of the front led Toyotomi Hideyoshi to send Naito Nguyen to negotiate with Ming in the next three years.

carrion beetle

In Japanese folk criticism, Katou Kiyomasa always appears as an upright and brave military commander, so as a military strategist, Zheng Qing's contempt for the president of the businessman's son is considered natural. But this is just the content of ordinary people chatting after dinner. Although there are many records about their discord in historical materials, the contradiction between them is inseparable from the contradiction between their factions. Future generations will have the above impression, which is the result of those writers who have the concept that "flowers are only cherry trees, and people must be warriors".

However, as we all know, Katou Kiyomasa has a tough stance in tomorrow's negotiations. It was decided that Ming would not pay attention to Hideyoshi's request to cede South Korea's Fourth Road, but the president deliberately created the illusion that the peace talks were smooth, and his fraud naturally caused dissatisfaction.

On September 2nd, the first year of Changqing (1596), Yang Fangheng was conferred the title of "King of Japan" by the Ming Dynasty. However, when Hideyoshi realized that the Ming Dynasty gave him only an empty title, and his request to carve up South Korea's North and South Fourth Roads and send a son as a hostage was ignored, everyone in the world could not help but fly into a rage: "I control Japan, and I will be king if I want to be king. Why do you want to seal me? " And I am the king, if the royal family? "This sentence comes from Lai's Japanese History, which is Toyotomi Hideyoshi's remarks insulting the envoys of the Ming Dynasty. Although it is different from the historical facts, it can also reflect Hideyoshi's angry attitude at that time. That night, Hideyoshi immediately issued an order to conquer North Korea again after expelling the Ming ambassador from the country. At this point, the three-year peace talks between tomorrow have broken down, and this meaningless war will continue. On the 21st day of the first month of the second year of Qingchuang, Maori Xiuyuan, Fujitani Gao Qiao, Shimadzu Hongyi, Tanshima Naomao, Hachisuga Butler, Yuxi Duoxiu, Kobayakawa Takakage, Asano Nagaakira and other generals led an army of more than 140,000 yuan to Korea for the second time, which is known as the Battle of Qingchuang.

In the following year, the Ming army and the Japanese army fought repeatedly in various parts of the south. In this series of battles, Katou Kiyomasa experienced the Battle of Ulsan from December 23rd of the second year of Qing Dynasty to the 4th of the first month of the third year of Qing Dynasty. Judging from the strength and cruelty of both sides, this war can be regarded as the most in the seven-year war. Zheng Qing and Asano Nagaakira were trapped in this lonely city for ten days and ten nights, which was undoubtedly the hardest day in their military career. According to Hideyoshi Otsuka (a subordinate of Commander Akihiro Ota), who witnessed the battle, in his book Korea, Ulsan was a hell on earth at that time, and a large number of soldiers fell down every day because of hunger and thirst. The dried-up reservoirs in the city are full of corpses, and the Japanese soldiers who don't eat livestock meat ate up the few cattle and horses in the city because of hunger. In those days, Katou Kiyomasa was at the end of its tether. If the reinforcements of Maori Soo-won and Kuroda came a day late, Zheng Qing might really be "ruined" in Ulsan, but he finally insisted on the day of clearing the field. However, Katou Kiyomasa's bloody battle in the front line can't stop him from being framed, and Ishida Mitsunari's slanderers seem to be more convincing than his upright exploits.

In the third year of Qing dynasty (1598), Toyotomi Hideyoshi died on August 18th, and Tokugawa Ieyasu and Maeda Toshiie followed Hideyoshi's wishes and ordered the withdrawal. This seven-year war of aggression has finally come to an end. It played a decisive role in the historical process of Northeast Asia in the17th century. Many historians believe that this war was one of the important reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty. In Japan, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's retainer group split into two incompatible camps in the war, and its strength also dropped greatly. Facing the rise of Tokugawa Ieyasu, whose strength is intact, the future of Fengchen regime is uncertain.

Leading to Guanyuan

Exhausted, Katou Kiyomasa returned to Osaka, where he visited Xiu, who was in power, and came to Tokugawa Ieyasu. He accused Konka of cheating Taige and framing Zhongliang, which were all kinds of evil deeds of the Ishida Mitsunari Party. On the surface, Konka affirmed Zheng Qing's accusation, which deepened Zheng Qing's trust in himself.

1, Konka's wrist

After returning from North Korea, Katou Kiyomasa, Fukushima masanari, Hosokawa Morihiro, Ikeda Terumasa, Kato Ming Kai, Haruhiko Kuroda and Yukio Edano of Asano Nagaakira formed an alliance against 30%. However, when Maeda Toshiie was alive, they could not openly take action against 30%. On the other hand, Ishida Mitsunari took Konishi Yukinaga, Zhong Jun Omura, Ma Qingxin, Li Mao Xiubao and Terasawa Hirotaka as two wings to fight against the so-called "anti-30% faction". According to Maeda's genealogy, Guan Yuan Jue Shu and Supplementing Three Rivers, when Ishida Mitsunari's confidant Shima Sakon spent the night at Fujita Hall's Gao Hu residence in Osaka, he put forward thirty percent suggestions and planned to assassinate Tokugawa Ieyasu that night. However, bad news came from the spies sent by Chang Shuzheng's family. Katou Kiyomasa, Fukushima masanari and Hosokawa Morihiro will gather in the rattan house to protect the health of their families. On the other hand, Konishi Yukinaga, Masuda and Maeda Gen'i also hold a negative attitude towards this plan. Ishida Mitsunari weighed it repeatedly and finally gave up the idea of killing Konka.

On March 3rd, the fourth year of Evergreen, Maeda Toshiie passed away at the age of 62. According to most historical materials and novels, on the night of Li's death, and others began to kill 30%. Ishida Mitsunari, who had a premonition of danger, unexpectedly entered Konka's residence to seek asylum. On March 8th, Konka allowed 30% people to return to Savaja Ma, the city where he lived, on condition that 30% of his son had contact with his family.

Before leaving, 30% people accused Konka of marrying other celebrities against Taige Hideyoshi's wishes. In fact, Konka married the daughter of a subordinate minister as an adopted daughter in order to win his family and foreign reputation. Katou Kiyomasa's wife is the daughter of Mizuno family and the mother of Konka, while Fukushima masanari and Asano Nagaakira have also reached a relationship with Konka. Although Ishida Mitsunari hated it, there was nothing he could do.

2. The whole story of Guan Yuan's war.

After Hideyoshi's death, Uesugi Kagekatsu, one of the five elders, was one of the foreign names that showed strong hostility towards Konka. As soon as he returned to his old job, he began to prepare for the war. Tokugawa Ieyasu, the chief elder, took Uesugi Kagekatsu's plot as an excuse (Konka's accusation was established, and Jingsheng, as an elder, did not perform his duties in Osaka, but he could not escape from expanding his army and preparing for war in Huijin), and Yu Qingchuang began a crusade in June of five years. The wily Konka predicted that Ishida Mitsunari would take advantage of his absence from Osaka to rise, so that he could cut the power of the party by 3 1%. Soon after, Ishida Mitsunari publicly accused Konka of violating his oath to Taige in Zeshan, and he rose to defend the justice of the Toyotomi family. The Guanyuan War, which decided the fate of Japan, broke out.

According to another theory recorded in the Biography of Maori, Katou Kiyomasa sent an envoy to Rumoto, Mei Lite on the eve of the Guanyuan-Yuan Joint War, and the upright envoy conveyed the monarch's conditions to Merritt Rumoto: if he got peace, he would join the Western Army, otherwise he would follow the internal affairs. However, according to this answer, Zheng Qing was disappointed: "I am very aware of your ambassador's purpose. However, Yamato is now led by Masada Changsheng, and there is nothing I can do. But Osaka will certainly seriously consider your master's request. Anyway, I hope your Lord will come soon. " Since Osaka can't meet its own requirements, it is natural for Katou Kiyomasa to join the Eastern Army. After being sent, Katou Kiyomasa was entrusted by Konka to serve as the military action of the Governor of Kyushu. Zheng Qing's first achievement was to put.

Katou Kiyomasa in the Battle of Guanyuan

In the 1600 battle of the official garden, he stood on the side of the eastern army of Konka, but he did not go out to support Konka in the Huijin conquest. On the contrary, he stayed in Kyushu to contain the local western troops and cooperated with Kuroda to attack Cheng Juyu Rabbit City in Konishi Yukinaga. When the Eastern Front Army attacked Liuchuan City, he persuaded Tachibana Muneshige, who was named "the unparalleled general of Kansai" by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, to surrender in Kaesong, and then cut off the forces of the Western Front Army in Kyushu until Tokugawa Ieyasu ceased fighting. After the war, he won the territory of Konishi Yukinaga and became the name of the Fat Queen.

Katou Kiyomasa after the Battle of Guanyuan

1605 took office from five places, and his attendants were obese and heavily guarded. 16 10 to assist the shogunate in building Nagoya city. 16 1 1 year, the Tokugawa shogunate asked Toyotomi Hideyori, the young master of Toyotomi family in Osaka, to visit Tokugawa Ieyasu and General Tokugawa Hideyoshi in Kyoto. This matter was obstructed by the actual ruler of Osaka, Dianjun (the daughter of Azai Nagamasa, the niece of Nobuyuki Oda, the side room of Hideyoshi, and Hideyoshi's mother). Dian Jun thinks that Tokugawa family is a subordinate of Toyotomi family. Although it has been made a general, he refused Tokugawa Ieyasu's request. Therefore, the relationship between Tokugawa and Toyotomi Hideyoshi is extremely tense. At this point, Katou Kiyomasa, hand-picked by Toyotomi Hideyoshi and deeply attached to the Toyotomi family, stepped forward to deal with the situation on both sides. Zheng Qing persuaded Dianjun, hoping Dianjun and Hideyoshi could wait patiently. Konka is over 70 years old and time is running out. After his death, Katou Kiyomasa, Fukushima masanari, Kuroda, Hosokawa Morihiro and other Toyotomi generals who are grateful for Tokugawa Ieyasu's kindness will no longer take care of Hideyoshi Tokugawa and help Hideyoshi regain power, but please be patient for a while. Persuaded by Zheng Qing, Zhengde Hideyoshi and others, Toyotomi Hideyori walked out of Osaka Castle for the first time and only time in his life.

The point army is worried that Xiulai may be murdered by Konka after leaving the city. In this regard, Zheng Qing further stated: "Zheng Qing is willing to personally accompany your Royal Highness (Xiulai) to Nijo Castle, and Zheng Qing will use his life to safeguard the safety of your Royal Highness."

Katou Kiyomasa and Asano Nagaakira, another warrior of the Toyotomi family, were taken care of by Yukio. Later, Ikeda Terumasa and Gao Qiao Fujitani joined the ranks of Xiulai at the request of Zheng Qing. In Nijo Castle, Xiulai met with Konka. Although there was no accident at the meeting, Zheng Qing, Yukio Edano and Fukushima masanari who stayed in Osaka were particularly nervous. It is said that several brave soldiers had already calculated when they met Kang Jia. If Konka takes any action against Xiulai in the middle, the two warriors will kill Konka as a last resort. If it fails, Xiulai, Integrity and Good Luck will all die, then Fukushima masanari will kill the Dian army and set fire to the city, in order to repay the kindness of the late Tiger.

Fortunately, such a thing didn't happen in the end. After the banquet, Zheng Qing and Yukio Edano sent Xiu back and forth to Osaka. It is said that when Zheng Qing returned to his mansion after completing his mission, he pulled out the dagger hidden in his arms, looked at him straight, shed tears and said to himself, today, he finally thanked His Highness Tiger.

Before time became an enemy of Konka, he took away a group of pro-Chen Feng names. Katou Kiyomasa bears the brunt. Shortly after Konka and Xiulai met, Zheng Qing fell ill on his way back to China. In the sixteenth year of Changqing (16 1 1), he died on June 24th at the age of 50. For Zheng Qing's death, some people think that Tokugawa Ieyasu poisoned him in order to eradicate Toyotomi's name that threatened Tokugawa regime, because in the following years, Asano Nagaakira Nagano, Wako Qing Ji, Ikeda Terumasa, Asano Nagaakira Duan Liyang and other pro-Toyotomi's names all died one after another, and in 1624, Fukushima masanari, 64, died in a fief, saying that he was ill and forced to commit suicide. However, after Ge Zheng's death, all his territories were confiscated, which showed that the shogunate had liquidated these famous names.
