[Osaka/Tennoji] Osaka no Jin "Hinomoto's No. 1 Soldier" pilgrimage tour guide (Tennoji area)

Loyalty is what makes us the best soldiers in Japan. It's more important than your own life. Bushido has a strong binding force on the actions of samurai, and has influenced everything about life and living. This eventually became a form of ``morality.'' ``Righteousness, courage, benevolence, courtesy, sincerity, honor, loyalty.'' Loyalty was not forced, but voluntary. ``This Yukimura was summoned to a place where he was simply trying to prolong his life, and he was given honor as a samurai. This kindness cannot be replaced by land or money. ``Can you forget your debts and indulge in self-interest, and call yourself a human being?'' ``Even if I receive half of Japan, I have no intention of changing sides.'' ” “If I had to choose between life and loyalty, I wouldn’t regret my life in the slightest.”

Sanada's red preparation ⚔ Intimidation effect by visual (Trauma of the Takeda family) Red readiness is a type of corps formation and decoration during the Sengoku period, and refers to a corps in which all of its weapons were red, from soldiers' armor and helmets to flag accessories and tabards. Sanada's red-armed corps naturally stood out and was an elite unit, making it easy for the enemy to target them. The armor of the Red Bore was originally used by Takeda Shingen's advance corps (because the advance corps was a brave and powerful unit, the Red Bore was given the image of an ``elite unit made up of strong men''). Since the Sanada family had been serving the Takeda family since Yukimura Sanada's grandfather's generation, it is thought that Yukimura Sanada was aware of the fighting style of the ``Takeda red reserve.''

Chausuyama, the site of the fiercest battle during the Osaka Summer Siege Chausuyama was the headquarters of Tokugawa Ieyasu during the Osaka Winter Siege, and the headquarters of Sanada Nobushige (Yukimura) during the Osaka Summer Siege the following year in 1615. Since both of them had previously set up camp there, you can see how important this place, Mt. Chausu, was for the capture of Osaka Castle.

``Take credit for this head,'' said Yukimura. Learn the Bushido of Hinomoto's best soldiers in the land of battle. It is said that Nobushige (Yukimura) was resting against a tree in the temple grounds when he was discovered by the enemy (Nishio Munetsugu of the Echizen Matsudaira soldiers) and killed. In the precincts, the pine tree that was leaning against it, ``Sanada Matsu,'' is in its second generation. Yukimura's death poem is said to be a passage from a letter he sent to his brother-in-law, Shigemasa Oyamada, just before the Summer Campaign in Osaka. ``If we live in an indefinite floating world, we will not know what will happen one day later.'' (We do not know what will happen tomorrow. Please think of us as if we are not in this world.)
