	Shimazu Yoshihisa
		Shimazu Yoshihisa was the eldest son of Shimazu Takahisa (1514-1571) and a lady of the Iriki-in family.
		While the Shimazu worked to consolidate their hold over Southern Kyushu and hold on to their forts in Higo, the Ryûzôji were active on another front, forcing the smaller clans of the Shimabara area of Hizen to submit.
		Their reasoning was that the Shimazu seemed to have drawn back to rest (as indeed they had) and this presented a fine opportunity to relieve Toshimitsu, a nearby castle currently under siege by Niiro Tadamoto.

		Surprisingly, the province of Nagato, the sole Shimazu province on the Japanese mainland and bordering with Mori territory, was lightly defended.

		The Shimazu, having routed the Mori main body, foolishly let victory slip from their grasp by going over to an offensive battle and attacking fresh Mori reinforcements when merely needed to hold their position on the heights was enough to win the day.
