Yamana Souzen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The Yamana family had seen many defeats over the years, while the Hosokawa family was one of the three families which controlled the position of Kanrei, deputy to the Shogun. |
 | | Nevertheless, Yamana, not Hosokawa, was labeled a rebel, and enemy of the state. |
 | | Some of Yamana's followers deserted, joining Hosokawa's morally superior side, but many more switched sides as a result of the work of Hosokawa's emissaries to the provinces where Yamana and his allies drew their armies. |
