  Tokugawa Ieyasu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tokugawa Ieyasu was born on January 31, 1543 in the Mikawa province.
Takechiyo was abducted and confined to Owari's Kowatari Castle.
With the Imagawa land completely absorbed within the Tokugawa sphere of influence, the Imagawa clan became vassals of the Tokugawa, with the Uesugi as strong allies to the Tokugawa.

 Imagawa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After the death of Yoshimoto at the battle of Okehazama in 1560, many Imagawa officers defected to other clans.
Within a decade the clan had lost all of its land holdings to the Tokugawa and Takeda clans.
The Imagawa subsequently became the master of ceremonies for the Tokugawa.

 Imagawa Yoshimoto
Imagawa Yoshimoto was the daimyô of Suruga and Tôtomi and Suruga from 1536 until 1560.
He secured Imagawa influence over Totomi and made a series of political maneuvers that led to the submission of the Matsudaira in 1548 and the acquisition of the future Tokugawa Ieyasu as a hostage.
Indeed, his successor Ujizane (1538-1614) would suffer the loss of his lands to the Tokugawa and Takeda by 1569, and in the end retired to Kyoto, providing a certain element of irony to the demise of the once-proud Imagawa clan.

This left the Imagawa in a strong position, and Yoshimoto sent an army under his father's younger brother, Imagawa Sessai, to attack an Oda castle where Oda Nobuhiro, who was Nobuhide's eldest son and the new head of the Oda, lived.
In 1561, Motoyasu and his men marched on the Imagawa fortress of Kaminojo, which they captured, thus notifying Nobunaga that Motoyasu was no longer loyal to the Imagawa.
By this time, the Imagawa land was completely absorbed within the Tokugawa sphere of influence, and the Imagawa clan became vassals of the Tokugawa, while the Uesugi too, maintained a strong alliance.

 Ichijô-Izumida
He was suspected of treason by Imagawa Ujizane and as a result was killed by the Asahina.
Ujizane was the son of Imagawa Yoshimto and became daimyô following the death of his father at Okehazama in 1560.
As Ujizane was married to a daughter of Hôjô Ujiyasu, the Hôjô offered the Imagawa assistance but could not prevent Sumpu from falling to the Takeda.

 Sengoku San
The ancient and honourable clan Imagawa were granted these lands by the Emperor himself, and an Imagawa was going to rule them come what may. To this aim the son and heir of the Imagawa left, with his retinue, to join the Hojo.
In this time, the Imagawa heir had been discussing the position of the Hojo, and the impossibility of them ever becoming accepted by other clans as Shogun due their lineage, not being descended from a Minamoto or Seiwa-Genji.
Imagawa Ujizane was publicly declared as the Hojo heir.

 Oda Nobunaga   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
In 1542, Imagawa, supported by the Matsudaira, marched as far west as the Owari border, and was met by Oda Nobuhide and his younger brother Tsuda Nobumitsu at Azukizaka.
Imagawa's army had lost some of it's potency with the death of Sessai Choro in 1555 but Yoshimoto could call on the services of a young and skillful ally - Matsudaira Motoyasu, a man whose fate would prove inter-twined with that of Nobunaga.
Encamped in the Dengakuhazama gorge, Imagawa's army rested and enjoyed sake, their leader engrossed in the viewing of the heads taken at Marume and Washizu.

 Ii Naomasa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Naomasa was born in Hôda village in the Inasa district of Tôtômi province and was first known as Toramatsu.
In 1562, Naochika, lord of Iidani Castle, came to be suspected of treason by Imagawa Ujizane, not the first or the last Imagawa retainer to be thus condemned by Imagawa Yoshimoto’s paranoid and inept successor.
Ujizane dispatched the Ashina to destroy him in 1562 and this was carried out, although the young Naomasa was hidden away and avoided his father’s fate.

Shingen now turned his attention south, where the Imagawa were collapsing after their daimyo, Imagawa Yoshimoto, was killed by Oda Nobunaga in 1560.
Yoshimoto’s son, Ujizane, was weak and lost control of their vassals, the Tokugawa.
In 1567, relations between Ujizane and the Takeda soured and an agreement to divvy up the remaining Imagawa territory was struck between Shingen and Tokugawa Ieyasu.

 Oda Nobunaga's Martial Household Management   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
He had been absent for so long because he was held a hostage by the Imagawa clan since he was 5 years old (click here); his province was in no condition to wage useless and neverending little wars.
So he couldn't openly say he was Oda's ally lest Imagawa heard of it and immediately marched to his province with a large army.
But, as they later said, "there was something in Oda Nobunaga" that silenced their opposition and made them resort to the code of loyalty even when they were convinced they would only die in vain for none other but the Lord Fool.

In every province since 1185 there was a largely civilian Governor, put there by the Shogun or equivalence of a Shogun, but there were more than one warlord in the same territory -- and they might or might not listen to the Governor (if they could help it, they most certainly would not).
While an overlord like Chief of such clans as Mori, Takeda, Imagawa, Saito, Omura, etc. had more than one province under their rule, even if the provinces seemed to have been governed by a Governor each and the usual number of local warlords were there too (click here for map of overlords in 1560's).
Since 1185, the Governors were military personnels (shugo), while his deputies or stewards (jito) managed the districts.

 The Real-Life Oda Nobunaga in His Twenties, 1561 - 1570
Tokugawa had all the reasons to conduct the hushing up; his wife and son were held hostage by Imagawa Ujizane, the new Lord of Suruga, who obviously copied faithfully his dad's way of powergaming (this clan seemed to have really loved taking hostages, like the Takedas of Kai).
The hostage situation went on until after Tokugawa got his own hostages, and a barter was forced on Imagawa.
From here on, his star steadily pointed towards Kyoto in a way that Imagawa Yoshimoto never even dreamed of in life.

 Nobunaga s Ambition
But as the game progressed that question turned to like this: can this warlord perished in early stage of unification game have any chance of unifying Japan, if so how could it have been done?
Some player seek for shortest unification path, some might try with the weakest lord such as Ujizane Imagawa by showing off his ability as game player.
Some try the chance of his/her folk historical hero as the unifier of Japan.

The old IMAGAWA territories had been TOTOMI and SURUGA, and TOKUGAWA's home province of MIKAWA.
Instead of siding with SHINGEN's appeal against the HOJO, TOKUGAWA enjoined the camp of NOBUNAGA showing the game-craft that would later earn him the SHOGUNATE.
This put TOKUGAWA, whose ranks were filling with the IMAGAWA SAMURAI that had peopled these TOKUGAWA tracts of TOTOMI and MIKAWA, against SHINGEN's push at the provincial line to KYOTO.
