Genpei War

File:Tomoe Gozen Killing Uchida Ieyoshi at Battle of Awazu no Hara (1184) MET DP135504.jpg
"Tomoe Gozen Killing Uchida Ieyoshi at Battle of Awazu no Hara (1184)", print by Ishikawa Toyonobu, c. 1750.

Under the leadership of Yoshinaka she commanded 300 samurai against 2,000 warriors of the rival Taira clan during the war. After defeating the Taira in 1182 and driving them into the western provinces, Yoshinaka took Kyoto and desired to be the leader of the Minamoto clan. His cousin Yoritomo was prompted to crush Yoshinaka, and sent his brothers Yoshitsune and Noriyori to kill him.

Yoshinaka fought Yoritomo's forces at the Battle of Awazu on February 21, 1184,<ref name=Turnbull2>Template:Cite book</ref> where she is known for beheading Honda no Morishige, leader of the Musashi Clan.<ref>Faure, Bernard. (2003). Template:Google books; Kitagawa, p. 521.</ref> She presented his head to her master Yoshinaka.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> Although Yoshinaka's troops fought bravely, they were outnumbered and overwhelmed. When Yoshinaka was defeated there, with only a few of his soldiers standing, he told Tomoe Gozen to flee because he wanted to die with his foster brother.

There are varied accounts of what followed. She is also known for having killed Uchida Ieyoshi and for escaping capture by Hatakeyama Shigetada.<ref>Joly, Henri L. (1967). Legend in Japanese Art, p. 540.</ref> She then retired to become a Buddhist nun, remaining so supposedly until 1247 AD.<ref name=ww>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
