Footprints of Yukinaga Konishi


5. Before the Sekigahara War (B)

It seemed that Yukinaga prayed God for good strategies at the Sekigahara war.  Then God gave him an idea that they initiate attack to East side of Army group at midnight when they move to Sekigahara on Sep. 13th to 14th, they do an initial attack to.  However, Mitsunari felt it was not fair, and Yukinagafs idea was not agreed.

Probably Yukinaga felt that he had done all that he could do.  Then, Yukinaga must have decided to do his best, leaving all to the hands of God.

The Sekigahara war broke out at 9a.m. of Sept. 15th, 1600.  Many Christian feudal lords were on the West side in this war.

On the other side, the East side, the words of Buddhism were written on the flags Tokugawa Ieyasu put up in this war.  As churches of charisma, we see it not only as gThe Decisive Battleh which was known to public, but also as a spiritual warfare which was invisible for people.
