Tokugawa Ieyasu

Episode 32:
Ieyasu Enters Edo

The departure date on the
war against the Hojo clan,

waged by the Imperial Adviser,
Toyotomi Hideyoshi,

was announced to be
on March 1, 1590.

The news reached Ieyasu.

Not only are we to serve as
vanguards for this war,

but we must welcome the
Adviser's army

and let them pass through
the Odawara area.

It would be a crisis for us

should there be any trouble
between our men

and the armies that are gathering
for this war from afar.

Masanobu will be in charge of
the Adviser's army,

and Sakuza will direct the
ally soldiers.

All right, Sakuza?

Yes.

Masanobu set up rest stops
along the way

for the Advisers army and
waited for the army's arrival.

That's very thoughtful, are the
stops lined along our way?

I don't know. This isn't
a pleasure trip.

How can we be bothered with
building tea houses

all the way into
enemy territory?

Masanobu's job was to
apologize for Sakuza.

Is the bridge at Oigawa
ready yet?

The bridge at Oigawa?

Right. Lord Tokugawa was
ordered to build one there.

Does the Adviser plan to lure
the enemy into Totomi?

Into Totomi?

A bridge good enough for us
is good enough for the enemy.

They'll be happy to climb that
bridge to attack us!

You don't know a thing.

Call the magistrate.

I'm the magistrate!

You're Honda...

I'm Sakuzaemon!

Wouldn't it be better to keep
the bridge a secret

until the Adviser arrives?

You know nothing about war.

Hideyoshi headed east on
March 1st.

His was a sight to behold.

Bedecked with a helmet shell,

he adorned a scarlet armor with
glittering gold sleeves

He dyed his teeth black,
powdered his face,

and made a moustache out of
bear hair.

Hideyoshi's main army approached
Sumpu in early April.

You must not let your
guard down.

The Tokugawa magistrates
cannot be trusted.

Not once have the Odawara
army attacked yet.

Ieyasu may be secretly
communicating with the Hojo's.

You're very careful.

What do you think?

Those suspicions
are groundless.

Lord Tokugawa has personally
inspected the front lines.

If you suspect him now,

you may force him to combine
forces with our enemy!

Tell Ieyasu to greet
me at Tegoshi.

Ieyasu was summoned to see Hideyoshi
who had set up camp in Tegoshi.

Thanks for coming,
Councilor.

It's me. Can't you tell?

It is your voice,
Adviser.

What is this
all about?

I'll thank you later for
protecting us on our journey.

Are you ready for us to
stay a Sumpu Castle?

We are.

I plan to greet you at
the castle tomorrow.

Then we'll talk again
at Sumpu Castle.

That's enough.
Thanks for coming.

Ieyasu, who had rushed over
from the front lines,

could not understand
what Hideyoshi wanted.

Wait! Councilor!

Listen, Councilor.

I am listening.

Why are you dressed
in such standard attire?

I'm sorry to say, I don't
have fancy armors and spears.

Take this spear with you.
Then you'll match me.

Do you know why I called you
to give you this spear?

Humor is good for mountain
and flower viewing, I gather.

I'm not out
flower-viewing alone.

But you look so serious so
we don't match.

I didn't realize that.

I'd like you to wear
a moustache, too.

But this one's irreplaceable
and I can't give it away.

Take that spear with you.

I appreciate it.
See you in my castle.

Lord Jibu?

Watch what you say for it may
cause trouble.

Be careful not to bend the
prongs in his helmet.

Hideyoshi entered Sumpu
Castle the next day.

When Ieyasu returned from
the front lines,

Hideyoshi's soldiers were swarming
his castle as if it were their own.

Ieyasu decided to tease
Hideyoshi.

He was willing to overreact
in paying his respects.

I am filled with
awe to see that

you, Sire, don't look tired
from your long trip.

Fool!

My lord!

You stupid lord!

What's this all about!

Watch your manners in
front of the lord.

When did you become such
a sycophant?

Excuse yourself,
you're being rude.

Whose castle is this,
anyway?

How can you be so flustered

when you are the lord of this
territory and castle?

That's enough.
Excuse yourself.

I can't until you realize
how sorry you look.

We, the Mikawa soldiers, did
not risk our lives in battle

for such a weak-kneed lord!

- Enough!
- Hear me out!

In your weakness, not only will
you lend out your castle,

but your wife as well!

Excuse yourself!

I won't take orders, but I'll
leave when I'm finished!

Don't become so low as to lend
your wife out and live in shame.

Who would risk
his life for you?

Shit!

So that's Honda Sakuza...

I see.

Please forgive him.

He's a stubborn old man.

He insulted even me.

He's you retainer,
so I won't interfere.

Come here, Councilor.

Come.

I didn't expect you
back so soon.

I thought you were at
war with our son's.

What's wrong?

I scolded our lord in front
of the Adviser.

Don't worry, the Adviser is
more shocked than our lord.

I showed my lord that our
clan would perish

unless we instill fear
in the Adviser.

Wife, thank you for all
you've done so far.

You're...

What should I do now?

Commit seppuku?

Become a monk?

Or...

This is life.

I know that I've made a
difference with my life.

Who knows what'll happen
after me.

Bring me the inkstone.

Listen, Kazumasa!

I have fallen for our lord
from the depths of my heart...

therefore, I have
lived willfully.

Sakuza...

You were the model
Mikawa warrior.

I will never forget you.

...so his wife asks that you
go to Odawara to care for him.

His wife?

Yes.

Isn't it enough that I'm
the Adviser's toy?

I don't have to follow
his wife's orders.

No.

It's the Adviser's wish
disguised as her orders...

Quiet!

Isn't this a part of his wife's
plan to take my son away from me?

I'd rather be with my son
than with the Adviser.

Understand? Just leave
us alone, will you?

...and?

The Adviser promised Yodogimi
that after the wars are over,

she'll be able to spend
time with her son.

Her procession headed east.

The Adviser is taking this
war so easily that

he even summoned his
concubines to battle.

His plan is to send the
Tokugawa's east, and

he'll keep then territories west
of Hakone in check.

Tokugawa, who had to exchange
his lands for the Kanto lands

is really facing trouble now;

those lands were ruled by the
Hojo's for over a century.

But...

This is the end
of the Hojo's.

The Adviser's main army which
launched an attack on April 20,

conquered most of the Kanto
castles in just 2 months.

Odawara Castle was the
only one left.

Ujinao, the lord of
Odawara Castle,

was shocked to see the emergence
of the castle built in the night.

Has Lord Tokugawa withdrawn his
men from this battle?

The Nirayama Castle fell.
It's just a matter of time.

His retainers are bemoaning
the situation here.

Now that the adviser's
one-night castle is there,

you can expect an all-out
attack in 3 days.

You're right.

All I can say is that the lives
of your 60,000 would be wasted.

I understand.

Ieyasu was summoned
to the one-night castle.

I believe he'll order you
to exchange territories?

I can't help it.

My lord!

There's a time to resist
and a time to accept.

What are you
going to do?

I'll follow his orders and
watch his actions.

I'm sure I'll see a way for
us to lead.

Wouldn't they be shocked if we
sent a cannonball from here?

You're right.

I'll give you the 8
Kanto territories.

When you see the size of
your territories from here,

you wouldn't miss
your former lands.

Let's piss together
from here.

You're kidding! I haven't
the gall to piss at Kanto.

Don't think of it that way.
We'll just piss downward.

What about Odawara Castle?

Can you live in Odawara Castle

the home of their lord for
over a century?

It's situated on one
side of the territory.

You're right! Just leave a
reliable retainer there.

Where will you be?

I'll set myself up in Edo,
by Sumida and Arakawa River.

I agree! Just as expected!

Edo is like the Osaka
of the East.

Build a large castle there
similar to mine.

Sire!

What is it?

A messenger has arrived
with a message to surrender.

So he's come...

You come, too!

Hojo Ujinao requested that
his retainers be spared

in exchange for his life.

I shall accept Ujinao's
surrender and establish peace.

This is my mercy toward
the long-lasting Hojo's.

My conditions are to make Ujimasa
and Ujiteru commit seppuku

Ujinao will be confined to
Mt. Koya.

Who will take over
their castle?

Don't ask obvious questions.

The Councilor is lord of
the 8 Kanto territories.

He'll take over.

Prepare immediately.

Excuse me.

Masanobu.

My last gift to the Hojo
clan will be

to allow Ujinao to write a
letter of introduction

for those who fought
well in wars

so that they may serve the
clan of their choice.

Understood.

Will we hire whoever comes
to us?

We will.

It will be inhumane to reject
those who were loyal.

I'll send Yodogimi back west
on the 15th, and I'll leave.

That has been arranged.

There's one more thing.

It's the young heir.

I got a letter from Osaka...

he's attached to my wife now.

Mankaka-sama!

That's a good name.

But, Yodogimi insists on
raising him herself.

Since Tsurumatsu is attached
to my wife,

she won't let him go easily.

Mitsunari.

Yes?

Please think of something
for the Adviser and me.

Just leave it
up to me.

Well...

That Tsurumatsu's
a lucky boy!

Hideyoshi left Odawara
on July 17th, and headed east.

He summoned Date Masamune and
Mogami Yoshiaki

to confer on the control
of east Japan.

As for Ieyasu...

...before we enter Edo,

I'll hear a report from
Itakura Katsushige.

Yes, lord. This is a castle
built upon rough land.

The southeast main gate has
water lapping at its feet,

the east and northern areas
are covered with trees,

and there's a foul-smelling
pond on the northwest side.

The front entrance has boards
leading up to it.

You suggest that we build
this castle up first?

This is for our lord
to decide.

Unless we clear part of
the mountainous terrain,

there's no land fit to
build a town upon.

According to his report, this
will be a difficult task.

I suppose you have
confidence to do this.

As long as I have lands which
yield 1 million bales annually,

I have enough to attack Kyoto
in a crisis.

Don't worry.

Such hopeful words.

Please decide upon the handling
of your retainers.

You mean fief distribution?

Exactly.

Tadatsune.

I don't rush to distribute
the fiefs

because I have learned from
history that

loyalty based solely on
rewards is weak.

Why did the Ashikaga's
control crumble so easily?

Because their retainers obeyed
out of greed for material goods.

But I'm different.

I've decided that I don't
need retainers

who would only serve me
for want of a reward.

I have no material rewards.

But for those with ability, I'll
give them the opportunity to use it.

The work is endless! Once we
enter Edo, use your abilities!

If we work together, our new fiefs
will be worth 2.56 million bales!

If Sakuza were here, he
would've grinned.

Many retainers were
dissatisfied

with the confiscation of old
lands for the 8 Kanto lands.

Please go on, lord.

Right, why did you accept
such a move?

Indeed.

I may be preparing to
control the country.

Therefore, I'm moving
as I'm told.

Once he conquers the
entire country,

the Adviser will
head out to Korea.

If we stay in the West, we'll
have to go first to fight.

Moreover, if the Adviser
should be defeated abroad,

and my body was left to
rot there,

who'll control the
country next?

The country will be back
in chaos once again.

Therefore, I have gladly
moved east

for the sake
of my country.

Your right!

Edo may be rough.

But geographically, it is
in a strategic spot,

and can be developed infinitely
depending on our efforts.

But the question lies in

whether or not we will instill
this hope in our men.

The answer to that
is obvious!

We have served you since
our days in Okazaki!

If this leads to our
controlling the country...

I'm relieved.

All of you! Remember the days
when our lord was a hostage,

and endure the hardship again
to lead us to supremacy!

Ieyasu wondered if Hideyoshi
had any loyal men such as these

and thanked the gods for
having blessed him so...

On August 1st, 1590,
Ieyasu entered Edo.

Hideyoshi conquered the Oshu
areas, uniting the entire country

and returned to Kyoto
in Autumn.

...the late Nobunaga dreamt
of unifying the country.

The one who realized
his dream is the Monkey.

We never know...

But I see ill fortune
in the stars.

In the stars?

The laws of the universe dictate that
no matter how lucky one may be,

two years of misfortune follow
after 10 years of fortune.

If he starts something now,

it'll cause great turmoil
for the entire nation.

You mean the war
in Korea?

Tell the Sakai merchants to
keep an eye on the Adviser.

What're you
going to do?

I'll go to Edo and watch
Ieyasu build his lands.

You're going to roam the
lands again?

I shall change my name
to 'Ten-Kai'.

As in 'Heaven and Ocean'?
A grand name!

Life's goals do not
lie in travel.

It lies in 'heaven and ocean'.

Ieyasu steadily developed
his new territory,

and the wilderness slowly
changed to take on a new look.

Ieyasu met Zuifu, who changed
his name to Monk Tenkai.

Man is blessed with both
luck and life.

Everyone must experience life's
spring, summer, autumn and winter.

When life leads to winter,

one feels a certain
restlessness.

If you understand that and
remain calm, you'd be saved.

Otherwise, you may grasp
a terrible misfortune.

You're saying the Adviser's
war in Korea

will change his luck from
good to bad?

Or it may claim
his life.

For the sake of our country,
I should stop the Adviser.

That's my duty.

You've grown,
Takechiyo.

Just as the monk predicted,
luck began to wear out.

That January, Hideyoshi's
brother, Hidenaga passed away.

The following summer, Hideyoshi
lost his beloved son.

Though he had seen many deaths
and killed many at war,

his son, Tsurumatsu's death
made him lose all his confidence.

Mitsunari... reported the last
moments of Tsurumatsu's life.

Before he breathed his last,

He opened his small hand and
tried to grasp something.

Sire...

He must've tried
to grasp life.

Yes.

Nene.

As a father, I wasn't able to
give him what he wanted most.

The life that he
wanted the most...

I know that this grieves
you so, but

you will get sick, please
take some of this medication.

If you should fall sick, you
will sadden the late heir.

Forgive me.

Forgive me, Nene.

Why?

He was so attached to you.

Please don't
say that...

I'm not just grieving...

I'm making my future plans.

All that I've done up
to this point

was what the late Lord
Nobunaga wanted.

This is just the beginning...

The beginning of my
own work.

I'll let Hidetsugu assume
the Adviser's post.

Sire?

I'll set out to
conquer the mainland!

I'm not that old yet.

I'll lead my army into the
land of the Ming Dynasty

and conquer it's
800 provinces!

Then I'll spread my wings to
the entire world!

Dear!

Tsurumatsu helped
me decide.

He died young to teach me
how to live.

To respond to pitiful
Tsurumatsu's life,

I must conquer
the Ming Dynasty!

Just watch me, Nene.

Tsurumatsu's death caused
Hideyoshi to set out

in the direction that
Nene feared the most.

When Ieyasu arrived,

Hideyoshi's plans had
already grown beyond control.

I'm so grateful,
Councilor.

Your presence is worth the
presence of a thousand men.

I just can't get
over this grief...

I don't know how
to comfort you.

But please take care
of yourself.

Why don't you go to
the hot springs for a while?

No.

Tsurumatsu would scold me
if I did that.

This is a war of vengeance.

I'll conquer the Ming Dynasty.

Just as expected...

our country's
wars have finally been quelled.

I believe it's time to rest
our soldiers

and concentrate on trade
with the foreign countries.

There's such a thing as
order of events.

Don't worry, just leave
it up to me.

At this point, it wasn't easy
to dissuade Hideyoshi.

The power and tenacity of this
Adviser who lost his child,

seemed to tower over Ieyasu
with all it's might.
