With the new NHK Taiga drama airing next year on Akechi Mitsuhide, I will write a post on Mitsuhide's first appearance in Ota Gyuichi's Shincho-Ko ki. Mitsuhide first appeared in the Shincho-Ko ki in 1569 in Kyoto.
Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga (p. 128)
"On the 4th of the First Month, the Miyoshi Triumvirs together with Saito Uhyoe no Tayu Tatsuoki, Nagai Hayato and others having recruited ronin from southern parts surrounded the shogun in his temple residence at Rokujo. Yakushiji Kurozaemon commanded their advance guard. His soldiers burnt down the neighborhood in front of the gate and were on the point of forcing their way inside the temple. The shogun's men who were on guard at Rokujo included
Hosokawa Tenkyu, Oda Sakon, Nomura Etchu, Akaza Shichiroemon, Akaza Sukeroku, Tsuma Sama no Jo, Watanabe Shozaemon, Sakai Yoemon, Akechi Jubyoe, Mori Yagohachi, Naito Bitchu, Yamagata Genmai, and Uno Yashichi."
Nobunaga no tame!
