Everything about Minamoto No Yoshihira totally explained
Minamoto no Yoshihira (源義平) (
1140 –
1160) was a
Minamoto clan warrior who fought alongside his father,
Minamoto no Yoshitomo, in the
Heiji Rebellion.
His mother was the daughter of
Miura no Yoshiaki, thus indicating the close ties between the two families. His brothers were
Minamoto no Yoshitsune,
Noriyori and
Yoritomo. He married the daughter of
Nitta no Yoshishige.
In 1155, after a disagreement with uncle
Minamoto no Yoshikata, Yoshihira attacked his storehouse and home in
Musashi Province.
Then, in 1159, Yoshihira was sent to
Kyoto to fight in the
Heiji Rebellion. The
Taira offered to make a peace agreement, but the
Minamoto refused, and were soon defeated. Although Yoshihira fled the battle, and lived peacefully, in disguise, for a time in
Kyoto, he was soon captured and killed by
Taira no Kiyomori, the head of the enemy faction.
