Hidehisa served [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]. In [[1581]] he captured [[Awaji Island]] and in [[1584]] was dispatched to [[Shikoku]] to check any possible moves by [[Chosokabe Motochika]], who was nominally part of the anti-Hideyoshi union that included [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]]. Hidehisa was defeated by Motochika at [[Hikita]] in [[Awa province]] and forced to retreat. After Hideyoshi's invasion of Shikoku in [[1585]], Hidehisa was granted a 100,000 [[koku]] fief in [[Sanuki province]]. Later, he was dispatched to [[Kyushu]] along with Chosokabe Motochika to bolster the defense of the [[Otomo clan|Ôtomo]] capital of [[Funai]] against the [[Shimazu clan|Shimazu]]. Once at Funai, Hidehisa and [[Otomo Yoshimune|Ôtomo Yoshimune]] disregarded Hideyoshi's orders to stand fast, instead marching out to relieve [[Toshimitsu castle]]. When they encountered the Shimazu army, they attacked despite Chosokabe's objections and were defeated at the [[Hetsugigawa]]. For this Hideyoshi stripped him of his domain and he went to live at [[Mt. Koya]]. Hideyoshi was later prevailed upon to give him a 50,000 [[koku]] fief at [[Komoro]] in [[Shinano province]]. He supported the [[Tokugawa clan|Tokugawa]] in the [[Sekigahara Campaign]]. Hidehisa had earlier earned fame for his capture of the famous bandit [[Ishikawa Gôemon]]. He died on 13 June 1614.
