Endo Naotsune
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Endo Naotsune (遠藤直経?) (1531-1570) was an officer under the Azai clan who was known as a fierce warrior following the Sengoku period of the 16th century of Japan.
Naotsune was very opposed to the political marriage between his lord Azai Nagamasa, and Oda Nobunaga's sister, Oichi. During the Battle of Anegawa, Naotsune camouflaged his own men to resemble that of Nobunaga's. Even trying to infiltrate into Nobunaga's army. But Nobunaga became aware of the intentions that Naotsune held, and killed him.
