The Honnoji Incident: The death of Oda Nobunaga, the first great unifier of Japan.
Akechi Mitsuhide, one of Oda’s most senior generals, had received an order to go support Hideyoshi in the campaign in the West. Mitsuhide had decided to travel through Kyoto while on his way as directed, which was where Nobunaga was going to stay at Honnoji Temple, but obviously he had other plans in mind. Upon reaching Kyoto he headed to the temple, then told his troops “The enemy is in Honnoji” and attacked the completely unprepared and unguarded Oda. Outnumbered, he secured himself in the temple, and with the help of his page, set the temple on fire and committed seppuku. Mitsuhide then rode out to Niji Palace and killed Oda’s oldest son.

Upon hearing the news his lord had been killed, Toyotomi Hideyoshi turned his army around and headed back to Kyoto, and about 2 weeks later engaged Mitsuhide’s forces which had set up at Yamazaki. Toyotomi’s forces won out, and Mitsuhide ran, but was soon found and killed. Toyotomi then quickly manipulated Oda’s remaining council into a position of power by arguing that the first child of Oda Nobunga’s (now dead) eldest son should be heir, and due to his young age, Toyotomi would be his guardian.
