Môri Yoshikatsu
(Môri Shinzaemon)
Oda retainer
d.1582
Yoshikatsu served Oda Nobunaga and won a name for himself by taking the head of Imagawa Yoshimoto at the Battle of Okehazama. He was assisted in this by Hattori Haruyasu, who was badly injured in the incident and died shortly afterwards. Yoshikatsu went on to serve Nobunaga as an attendant and orderly. In 1582, immediately following the death of Nobunaga at the hands of Akechi Mitshuhide, Yoshikatsu was killed fending off Akechi troops at Nijô.
Môri Hideyori
Oda retainer
1541-1593
Hideyori was the second son of Shiba Yoshiyori. He served Oda Nobunaga at the Battle of Okehazama (1560) and in the siege of the Ishiyama Honganji. After the fall of the Takeda in 1582 he was established at Takatô Castle in Shinano Province. When the former Takeda retainers rebelled after Nobunaga’s death, Hideyori fled to Owari Province. He entered the service of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and participated in the Komaki Campaign (1584), the invasion of Kyushu (1587), and the siege of Odawara (1590). He was afterwards awarded Iida in Shinano Province.
