      @bandolando5805 6 років тому +29

      black ops European warfare is far more interesting though. Japans isolation made them far technology inferior and they never developed plate armor, swords other than shitty katanas, and never used shields. European warfare is so much more interesting as a 15th century european army would destroy a 17th century Japanese army

    • @danilooliveira6580
      @danilooliveira6580 6 років тому +24

      wrong, wrong and wrong. Samurai armor was made of metal, they even had chainmail. they also had a very varied selection of arms, katanas were side arms just like arming swords for a european knight, their primary weapon was polearms. samurais didn't use shield because they fought in horseback, but their shoulder armor worked kinda like shield, but foot soldiers did used hand held shields though.
      and they were masters of warfare, when you are fighting non stop for almost 100 years you gotta learn a thing or two, when they invaded Korea no one could stop them in land, even the Chinese had a hard time, if it wasn't for the absolute defeat on sea they could have conquered all the way to china.
      and about technology, they loved firearms, during the Sengoku Jidai there were more Arquebuses in Japan than in all europe, some say one of the reasons Oda Nobunaga was so sucessful was because of his pioneer use of firearms in open combat.
      the discussion about who would win is pretty mute, Japanese were masters in fighting other japanese, if they faced Europeans they wouldn't have the tools and strategies to deal with them, but they would adapt or die, if you are fighting a enemy you were not trained to face, then your only option is to see what you are doing wrong and learn what you need to face the new enemy.

    • @danilooliveira6580
      @danilooliveira6580 6 років тому +2

      "Japan was at war during the Sengoku Period between 1467 and 1590, as feudal lords vied for supremacy.[7] Matchlock guns were used extensively and had a decisive role in warfare. In 1549, Oda Nobunaga ordered 500 matchlocks to be made for his armies."
      "Japan became so enthusiastic about the new weapons that it possibly overtook every European country in absolute numbers produced.[9] Japan also used the guns in the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592, in which about a quarter of the invasion force of 160,000 were gunners.[15] They were extremely successful at first and managed to capture Seoul just 18 days after their landing at Busan.[16]"
      about firearms in the sengoku jidai its probably a exaggeration, its just something I read people say. when they introduced the Portuguese firearms it was already popular in Europe. but Oda was one of the first to get real use from firearms in open battle when they were still not very effective unless in specific situations. the first large battle won by the extensive use of firearms happened just half a century ago, and europeans didn't expand the use of firearms until the beginning of the 17th century, until then they used mostly cannons. though the Ottomans and Turks did use Muskets quite a lot, I think they were actually the first to actually use firearms extensively to the point that by the 17th century, cavalry charge was obsolete. I also read that the fact that early firearms didn't work very well against the strongly armored european soldiers, so it took some time until later designs were so effective that it would make other forms of warfare obsolete, can't confirm that though.

    Oh boy. There is alot of stuff that needs to be explained. First of all I dont think its a good idea to skip the Hatakeyama family schism. It was one of the primary issues of the Onin War and it continued for decades after until grandchildren and great grandchildren finished it. Furthermore to completely not even mention the Shiba family war which was another of the primary components of the onin war is another baffling omission.
    Also the situation with the Emperor and the retired Emperor. Furthermore Ouchi Masahiro was NOT a Yamana vassal. He was his ally.

    Only a few minutes in. Just wanted to add a few things to anyone interested.
    First of all Yoshimasa was never supposed to be Shogun. His father, Ashikaga Yoshinori, was also never supposed to be Shogun.
    Ashikaga Yoshinori is popularly known as the "evil Shogun." Less commonly known is that in the diary of an imperial court noble Yoshinori was called the "terror of all men." His methods were very tyrannical but also more effective than not.
    Due to the familial discord of prior generations in the Ashikaga family (Muromachi/Ashikaga bakufu founder Ashikaga Takauji fought with his brother Tadayoshi as well as his illegitimate son Tadafuyu. His cousin, of the Shiba house also rebelled against him briefly after earning Takaujis ire when he refused to give him a famous sword. Takaujis sons, future second Shogun Yoshiakira and Kamakura Kubo Motouji were also on poor terms owing to Yoshiakiras unwarranted suspicions of his brother) Ashikaga children of the main line whom were not heirs were often made to turn priests as infants. Third Ashikaga Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu did this with most of his children except for his heir, Yoshimochi and his favorite, Yoshitsugu. Yoshimitsu intended to displace his heir, Yoshimochi, with his favorite, Yoshitsugu but he died before he could realize this. Consequently Yoshimochi later killed his younger brother, Yoshitsugu. A little known fact to Western fans of Japanese history, Yoshitsugus descendants survived and lived under the protection of Echizen Shugodai (later, Shugo) the Asakura. These descendants were unofficially called the Echizen kubo. Many decades later when future final Ashikaga Shogun Ashikaga Yoshiaki sought shelter with Asakura, the presence of the Echizen kubo made for an awkward situation.
    Yoshimochis heir was Ashikaga Yoshikazu. This young man was, like his father before him, a lush of unrivalled dissipation. He died shortly after becoming Shogun. This left a succession crisis. With all of Yoshimochis brothers in priestly orders there were some in the bakufu councils who felt the only appropriate successor could be the then Kamakura Kanrei Ashikaga Mochiuji. However the Kyoto Kanrei, of the Hatakeyama family, decided to draw lots to settle the dispute. The lot drawn favored Ashikaga Yoshinori whom was also the eldest of Yoshimochis surviving brothers.
    Yoshinori was assassinated by Akamatsu Mitsusuke. His heir was Ashikaga Yoshikatsu whom was just a child. (Dont confuse Yoshikazu, Yoshimochis heir, with Yoshikatsu, Yoshinoris heir. Their names are very similar and they both died prematurely but they're different people.) The child Shogun Yoshikatsu died after falling from a horse. In the shrine featuring wooden sculptures of all the Ashikaga shoguns, Yoshikatsus may be the most striking as he stands out a very small child amongst men.
    With Yoshikatsu dead the Shogunate fell to Yoshimasa.
    In the aftermath of Akamatsu Mitsusukes assassination of Yoshinori the bakufu did not immediately respond. Yoshinori was a tyrant and many high councilors within the bakufu were sympathetic to Akamatsu. Yamana Sozen was not sympathetic in the least and did more than anyone to chastise and kill Mitsusuke. Some of the remaining Akamatsu family fought to regain their lands while others fled. Yamana stamped out many of these Akamatsu family members.
    Heading into the Onin War then the two most powerful men in the Shoguns councils were Yamana and Hosokawa.
    Interestingly enough these two men worked in concert at first. Hosokawa Katsumoto was in fact Yamanas son in law. Katsumoto had even adopted Yamanas youngest son and made him his designated heir. However, Katsumoto earned Sozens scorn when his future heir, Hosokawa Masamoto was born and Katsumoto subsequently put his adopted son, Yamanas biological son, into priestly orders and disinherited him.
    The Onin War was also about new vs old. Hosokawa represented the old families whose affiliation to the Ashikaga Shogunate dates back to the times of Takauji and before. Yamana and one of his primary supporters, Ouchi, represented new powerful Shugo whom came to great power AFTER the establishment of the Shogunate.
    Both Ouchi and Yamana had similar histories. Both families at different times had rendered the Shogunate such stunning service that they were rewarded with massive domains. During Ashikaga Yoshimitsus time Ouchi not only ruled supreme in the Chugoku and northern Kyushu, but Ouchi also had holdings in central Japan. Ouchi attempted rebellion however and Yoshimitsu quickly subdued him. It had taken many years but by the time of Onin Ouchi had finally regained his preeminence amongst the Shugo. Its a similar case with Yamana. Yamana family discord lead to strife with the Shogunate and a subsequent curtailing of their territory and powers. By the time of Yamana Sozen, and owing greatly to his chastisement of Akamatsu, Yamana had brought his clan to their pinnacle.
    Finally, Ashikaga Yoshimi had been requested to leave his priestly life and assume the position of Yoshimasas heir only after the Shogun had written 3 requests that he do so. Yoshimi had replied that priestly vows were not to be taken lightly and not easily discarded. It wasn't until Yoshimasa specifically wrote Yoshimi in his own hand and swore that even if he had a son born to him, the boy would immediately be entered into the priesthood. With that Yoshimi accepted his brothers offer. And soon thereafter the onin war began.

      Hellenic Mapping though it was an importan battle in greek history, it wasnt even a battle, because the persians couldnt even get prepared for battle, so the greeks slaughtered the surprised persians who just jumped out their ships, so there is not much tactic or strategy to talk about.

    Good choice! The Sengoku Jidai brought forth many great strategists that had some incredibly clever and risky moves up their sleeves to win their battles. I'll enjoy seing you unravel and narrate more battles from the Sengoku period (esp. the ones Takeda Shingen, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu fought)
