89-year-old Yoshiaki MIURA (Yoshimori's grandfather) said 'By giving my life to buei (Yoritomo), I wish for the prosperity of my descendants' and stayed in the castle; he fought on his own but was killed (The Battle of the Kinugasa-jo Castle). |
その際に、89歳の老齢の三浦義明(義盛の祖父)は「今、この老いた命を武衛(頼朝)に捧げて、子孫の繁栄をはからん」と言い、一人城に残って奮戦して討ち死にした(衣笠城合戦)。 |
