		Hideyoshi appointed Hidenaga commander of the forces dispatched against Shikoku in 1585, and made him a leading commander (with 60,000 men at his disposal) in the invasion of Kyushu in 1587.
		In May 1584 Hideyoshi ordered a full-scale invasion of Shikoku, spear headed by 30,000 troops from the M�ri clan and 60,000 more under Hashiba Hidenaga.
		Hideyoshi, to make sure, sent Sengoku Hidehisa (1551-1614) to block any efforts on Motochika's part, though these troops seem to have been roughly treated by the Lord of Shikoku upon arrival on the island.

	Takayama Ukon
		Takayama went on to serve in Hideyoshi’s invasion of Shikoku (1584) and in 1585 was transferred to Akashi (Harima province, 60,000 koku).
		Takayama went on to serve in Hideyoshi’s invasion of Kyushu in 1587, but this campaign proved to be Takayama’s last.
		Takayama Ukon was a rather controversial figure, considered by the Jesuits as a pillar of the Christian faith in Japan and by some Japanese (contemporary and modern) as a symbol of the duplicity and heavy-handedness of Christianity in the Sengoku era.

		Hideyoshi appointed Hidenaga commander of the forces dispatched against Shikoku in 1585, and made him a leading commander (with 60,000 men at his disposal) in the invasion of Kyushu in 1587.
		Hidenaga's death was a great source of grief for Hideyoshi, and complicated matters for the Toyotomi, especially coming after the execution of Toyotomi Hidetsugu in 1585.
		Toyotomi Hideyoshi (who outnumbered Honda perhaps 50 or 60 to 1) was said to have been struck by the bravery of this warrior, and ordered that no harm come to him, his men, or Ishikawa Yasumichi, who accompanied him on this bid to buy time for Ieyasu.

	Takayama Ukon
		Takayama went on to serve in Hideyoshi’s invasion of Shikoku (1584) and in 1585 was transferred to Akashi (Harima province, 60,000 koku).
		He was also supposed to have converted Kuroda Kanbei to Christianity and been respected by as many of his contemporaries as not, as his admittance into the service of the Maeda would seem to indicate.
		In the ensuing Battle of Yamazaki, both men commanded troops in Hideyoshi’s vanguard and helped defeat Akechi Mitsuhide’s army.

	Takayama Ukon
		Takayama went on to serve in Hideyoshi�s invasion of Shikoku (1584) and in 1585 was transferred to Akashi ( Harima province, 60,000 koku).
		In early 1583 Katsuie dispatched an army under Sakuma Morimasa to capture these frontier forts, and in the course of the campaign Takayama was forced to abandon Iwasakiyama and take up in nearby Tagami.
		In fact, Takayama's defeat further drew Sakuma Morimasa's neck out, much to Hideyoshi's benefit-a fact which, on the same token, may have spared Takayama a certain amount of disgrace.
