There is no evidence that he ever used the name Yukimura, but the name is so well known that even books that state this call him Yukimura, and this article follows suit.</ref> |
| Like Masayuki, Yukimura apparently found life in Kudoyama difficult. In 1614 [[Toyotomi Hideyori]] started gathering ronin to support him against Ieyasu, and Yukimura responded. He slipped out of Kudoyama in the tenth month and went to [[Osaka Castle|Ôsaka Castle]], where he became a leader. He built a barricade, the "Sanada-[[Castle terms|maru]]" on the southeast corner of the castle (the present Sanada-yama Park), which took the brunt of the fighting in the [[Osaka Winter Campaign]]. When Ieyasu attacked the next year during the [[Osaka Summer Campaign]] the Osaka position was hopeless. Yukinaga attacked Ieyasu's positon at Ten'ô-ji and succeeded in getting near, but was beaten back. He finally was killed, exhausted, by, Nishio Hisasaku, a retainer of [[Matsudaira Tadanao]] of [[Echizen province]] on 5/7. Yukimura's son Daisuke, who had lived in Kudoyama with his father, was also killed in the fighting. | | Like Masayuki, Yukimura apparently found life in Kudoyama difficult.
