The great achievement of Hideyoshi such as building Sunomata citadel
in one night couldn't be done if not the corporation of people in Kawanami,
Konan. There are many historical records of civil war, however, it was
a mystery that there is no record about "Sunomata one night castle".
Later, a document called "Eiroku Sunomata report" was discovered
at Yoshida's godown and the mystery was solved.
According to the record, Koroku Hachisuka did great contribution to
build the castle. Koroku was living in Miyaushiro and was the boss to
rule Kawanami people, residents of Kiso River coast. He was swore brothers
with Shouemon Maeno and had close relationship with powerful family and
their supporters in the district.
Since Hideyoshi and Koroku were very close as they served Hideyoshi
together, Hideyoshi asked Koroku for help. The great achievement could
not be done without careful strategy. It should not overlook the fact
that there were many genius followers in this district worked together
with Koroku and Hideyoshi.
