00:56 Wow, Hideyoshi’s rise from a foot soldier to a pivotal general is like something out of a movie! The betrayal at Honno-ji feels like a shocking plot twist. Can’t wait to see how he takes on Mitsuhide-did he plan all this in advance? 🤔
Kinda doubt it. Hideyoshi has no link with Honno-ji incident But Hideyoshi certainly an opportunist, for he takes any opportunity to rise after his lord's death
In now what is Iwakuni city Yamaguchi Prefecture. You can see what happened to the losing side with the Mori clan...which would be a cool video for this series. Anyways, I just want to think you and your team for doing this for members like us. I've yet to see a channel that gives back as much as the members put in for these videos. Thank you.
Will you be covering other Sengoku era battles apart from Hideyoshi’s post-Honnoji campaigns? Shimazu clan’s campaign pre-1586, especially their victory over the Ryuzojis at Okitanawate may be worth looking into
Tadaoki also tricked his brother in law (his sisters husband) into joining the Akechi but didn't join himself and supported the Hashiba himslef so he could take his land (they shared the same province) which led to the death of his BiL his sisters was so pissed that she attacked him
Kings and Generals, can you do a video about the Pre-Viking history of Denmark? I like to study that part of the History but there is something that it is a little bit confusing. Denmark had kings during the end of the 8th Century and the beggining of the 9th Century, like King Horik I, Gudfred, Harald Klak, Sigfred and Hemming, but for some reason, the first king of Denmark is considered to be Harald Bluetooth, that ruled in the end of the 10th Century. What is the reason for that?
@ChrMuslimThor Acording to Wikipedia, Horik I was the SINGLE ruler of Denmark from 828 to 854. And looks like his kingdom was very organized. He even had diplomatic relations with the Frankish King Louis, the Pious
@@VikingRomano I'm not an expert, but I know that history is contested and Wikipedia is a battleground for the debate. Any English language history goes by the Saxon chronicles first, then Frankish sources, THEN the written versions of the Norse sagas that were only put together centuries later besides being contradictory. The Saxon sources are ostensibly firsthand and considered primary, but written by people who had no inside view on what was going on in Scandinavia and at least one major writer was a Welsh monk who was doing everything to be accepted by the Saxon and unite the Christians against the Danes. What that comes out to is a list of supposed kings of Denmark, Norway, the Isles and occasionally a few for Sweden that has a lot of holes. The go-to explanation often is that they many were Jarls acting as petty kings, or that the kingship was decentralized and contested frequently. This is how you get Horik, Ragnar Lothbrok, Bacgseg, Bjorn, Harald and others being described as kings over overlapping lands at the same time in different sources.
👍 You should do more Eastern Roman history next if you can. Like the rediscovery of the Hellenic identity from the 11th century (being knowledgeable in antiquity is a respected part of society) to Constantine Palaiologos saying we're descended from Romans and Hellenes.
"I wonder how this Oda Sanboshi lad would fare in the future..." One cluelessly ponders of a fate fathomably cruel for this promising successive infant heir of the First Unifier
In my opinion, Hideyoshi was the most loyal person during the lifetime of Oda Nobunaga, but after the death of his master, he used all his power to weaken the Oda clan and dishonored the Oda Nobunaga family.
Loyal retainers do not remain obedient to their ineffective succeeding clan leaders. Gekokujo upon a unifying regime was inevitable, as supremacy and legitimacy drives once fellow comrades knit together in the chain of command into rival contenders to become military ruler of much of feudal Japan.
Hideyoshi was actually a talented brown-noser, playing cool with everyone and Nobunaga must have seen it but because he was useful he kept him on. Even his assignment to fight the Mori came after he was charged for insubordination and abandonment of his allies by Katsue Shibata, in a critical battle against the titan of the age, Uesugi Kenshin at Tetorigawa; charges that held the death penalty, but instead he was given a pivotal role as a senior retainer of the Oda and granted full command of an entire front. Although his logic of his actions at Tetorigawa was sound, his brown nosing was paying off and he was often rewarded handsomely by Nobunaga. Shibata in my opinion was the most loyal Oda retainer. He never sought power for himself being content with his fiefs in Echizen granted by Nobunaga. His only wish was to maintain the Oda heritage and have Nobunaga be survived by his sons. Shibata having seen the Oda rise from mere retainers during the days of Nobunaga's grandfather and father was well placed to ensure the continuity of his liege clan.
I love this sengoku jidai period. It was one of my most favorite and I am finding that details. KnG thank you as always. We always appreciate your hard work and dedication to make these videos possible. ❤. Huge fan of you and patron member until recently ( I have to discard it cuz of my personal matters. ) from Sri Lanka. ❤❤

The Sengoku period is one of my favourite in all history just because of the shear chaos of the period.
Name checks out
Definitely 😂@@محمدالامريكي-ج9م
Also because of how epic it sounds "Sengoku.... Jidai!"
Me too 😊

@Dfathurr True, Hideyoshi wasn’t at Honno-ji, but he sure knew how to turn chaos into opportunity. The man had a PhD in power grabs!

Another great and interesting video mate.
Hosokawa’s wife: “why are you leaving me, I didn’t even do anyth-“
Lord Hosokawa: “MITSUHIDEEEEEEEEEEEEE”
Lady Akechi Tama life be like
Tadaoki also tricked his brother in law (his sisters husband) into joining the Akechi but didn't join himself and supported the Hashiba himslef so he could take his land (they shared the same province) which led to the death of his BiL his sisters was so pissed that she attacked him
Nobunaga thinking is way ahead of his timelines.
Rumors is akechi escaped and became a monk. Abbot of a temple that worked closely with ieyasu
Who is Hideyoshi and why is he striking me back? I wanted to sleep
Amazing video KnG! as always.

The others may be petty kings. Ruling only parts of the country. Don't know the history of Denmark that well, but that's what happened in Norway.

Sengokou Jidai and the three kingdoms period are the most brutal periods in chinese and japanese history.

He fought against Tokugawa's forces in the siege of Gifu Castle and lost. He died 5 years after Sekigahara.

the same path taken by Tokugawa Ieyasu who weakened Hideyoshi's clan after the latter's death

George Lucas based star wars on Japanese storytelling.

明智光秀反叛信长的真正原因，到了今天还是一个谜。
Seppuku?
Not harakiri?
Whatever happened to the Pacific War series?
it's only for paying followers now, us who can't afford subscriptions no longer get to watch it, sadly
Explained in the community post
@talamioros One day, it'll return 🥲
Ahh, I'm doing a funny series on this as well
この動画では山崎の戦いの地図を完全に間違っているぞ。あなたが円明寺川と表記しているのは淀川だ。先生の場所も部隊の配置も全く違う。
この動画で秀吉軍が位置しているのは大山崎の集落だが、光秀軍が位置しているのは八幡市と石清水八幡宮だろう。
動画を作り直したほうがいい。
Series on Mughal Empire when?
Game of thrones but japan
ASoIaF is just fantasy medieval Warring States of Westeros
The Graphics are unconfortable to look at if not at least 1080p
Graphics is very poor😢
I was just playing Onimusha Dawn of Dreams and this video popped up!
Animation and graphics is very poor
