  Tokugawa Ieyasu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Originally named Matsudaira Takechiyo, he was the son of Matsudaira Hirotada (1526-1549), a lord of Mikawa who spent most of his time at war with the Oda and Imagawa clans.
The Matsudaira family was split: one side wanted to be a vassal of the Imagawa clan, while the other side (Takechiyo and Hirotada's clan) prefered the Oda.
Takechiyo was abducted and confined to Owari's Kowatari Castle.

Hirotada replied saying that sacrificing his own son would show how serious he was about their pact.
In 1549, Hirotada died of natural causes, and a short time, Nobuhide was also dead.
This secrecy was necessitated since most of the Matsudaira family - including Motoyasu's wife and infant son, Hideyasu - were still in hostage in Sumpu by the new head of the Imagawa, Yoshimoto's son, Imagawa Ujizane.

The Matsudaira were as obscure as the Oda, and while not as splintered politically, they were slowly coming under the Imagawa's influence.
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.
Matsudaira Hirotada thus found himself in difficult straights, and called on Imagawa for assistance.

 Tokugawa Ieyasu
Tokugawa Ieyasu was born Matsudaira Takechiyo, the son of Matsudaira Hirotada (1526-1549), a relatively minor Mikawa lord who had spent much of his young life fending off the military advances of the Oda and the political ploys of the Imagawa.
Hirotada's own leanings towards the Imagawa, whom he saw as the lesser of two evils, had driven a number of family members into the arms of the Oda.
Hirotada wisely elected to call his Owari rival's bluff and made no response except to say that the sacrifice of his own son could only impress upon the Imagawa his dedication to their pact.

 Civilization Fanatics' Forums - Rise to Power : Tokugawa Ieyasu
The Matsudaira maintained themselves at Anjo for about 50 years but its location to the west and south of Matsudaira village made it difficult to hold, in the face of the expansion of the Oda house in neighbouring Owari province.
However, the Matsudaira were still non-players in the national struggle, and they existed within a regional power structure aligned to the Imagawa house, whose heads were military governors of Suruga province, and sometimes of Totomi and Mikawa provinces as well.
However he was killed in 1535 and his successor, Hirotada (1526-1549), father of Ieyasu, acknowledged the Imagawa overlordship, resulting in a branch of the Matsudaira breaking off and joining the Oda.

He included Matsudaira Motoyasu in the invasion force, and dispatched the Mikawa samurai to reduce the fort of Marume.

Secondly, it allowed Matsudaira Motoyasu to extricate himself from the Imagawa's clutches and establish Mikawa as an independent province.
