  • Ōuchi Yoshihiro, also known as Ouchi Sakyo-no-Tayu, was a Muromachi period samurai clan head and military leader. Yoshirio was the second son of Ōuchi Hiroyo, and a member of the Ōuchi family which served under Ashikaga Takauji. The Ōuchi became known as the shugo of Suō and Nagato in 1363 for assisting the Ashikaga against many other opponents. Yoshihiro along with his father both also assisted Imagawa Sadayo in his Kyūshū campaign. After Yoshihiro's father died during the year of 1379, Yoshihiro and his brother both became involved into a power struggle. Yoshihiro ended up defeating his brother at Sakariyama in 1380. During the year of 1591, in the name of the shogun, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, Yoshihiro led an army against the Southern Court adherents in the Capital region. Due to Yoshihiro's actions, Yoshimitsu awarded him with two more provinces. Yoshihiro's greatest contribution to the Ashikaga took place during the year of 1392, When Yoshihiro convinced the Southern Court Emperor to surrender, thus bringing to a close the Nanboku-chō period, also known as the Northern and Southern Courts period. Afterwards, the shogun told Yoshihiro to build him a villa at Kitayama, in which Yoshihiro thought was an unreasonable demand. Due to this ironic fact, the Ōuchi revolted against the Bakufu. Yoshihiro was supported by many other Shugo, and withdrew his forces from Kyoto to the city of Sakai. The shogun, Yoshimitsu however wanted to solve the problem peacefully, but Yoshiro demanded to go out to battle him. Due to this fact, the shogun made the first move. Yoshimitsu gathered the armies of Hatakeyama, Hosokawa, and the Shiba, and moved to the land of Sakai. Yoshihiro however made an agreement with some Inland Sea pirates to create a naval blockade against the enemy forces. Yoshimitsu was then assisted by Ashikaga Mitsukane who promised that that he would assist him. All was not going well for Yoshihiro due to his Iwami and Izumi troops proving to be incompletely unreliable. Due to this fact, Yoshihiro's army seemed generally stubborn, and incompetent. During the 12th month of 1399 Bakufu troops managed to set fire to the city, and Yoshihiro ended up having to commit suicide from the invading forces under Yoshimitsu. Apart from military actions, Yoshihiro was involved with trading between China and worked towards securing Ōuchi dominance in that area.
  • 大内 義弘(おおうち よしひろ、延文元年/正平11年(1356年) - 応永6年12月21日(1400年1月17日))は室町時代の守護大名である。大内弘世の子。子に大内持世、大内持盛、娘(大友親世室)。兄弟に大内満弘、大内盛見、大内弘茂。 父弘世の代に南朝方から室町幕府に帰順した周防(山口県)における有力な守護大名で、九州探題を務めていた今川貞世に協力して、九州における南朝の勢力追討に功績を挙げ、豊前の守護職を与えられた。弘世が亡くなると、周防から石見、長門の守護職も兼任することとなり、1391年に山名氏の内紛からはじまる明徳の乱の鎮圧や1392年には南朝との仲介を行い南北朝合一にも尽力した。これら一連の功績から、和泉と紀伊の守護職も与えられるとともに、中国の明王朝とも独自の貿易を行ない、瀬戸内海では細川氏と対立し、北九州から中国地方、さらに中央と勢力を大きく拡大していた。 有力守護大名の弱体化を図る足利義満は義弘を圧迫し、1399年上洛命令をするなど挑発をすると義弘は上洛を拒否し、鎌倉公方の足利満兼と通じて蜂起して反乱を起こす(応永の乱)。義満は禅僧の絶海中津を派遣して降伏を勧めるが義弘は5000の軍勢を率いて和泉の堺に籠城して満兼の援軍を待った。義満が奉公衆を率いて火攻めをなどを行い義弘は畠山満家に討ち取られる。法名:香積寺殿秀山仁実 義弘の死により、その後、大内氏は衰退した。また、義弘は歌道に優れ、『新後拾遺和歌集』にも選ばれている。 墓所 山口県山口市の保寧山瑠璃光寺 肖像画 肖像画は山口県立山口博物館所蔵
