Kakizaki Kageie


Kakizaki Kageie was a Japanese samurai of the Sengoku period, who served the Uesugi clan of Echigo Province. He was one of the chief generals of Uesugi Kenshin.
Kageie was one of Uesugi Kenshin's most famous generals. He was known as an extremely ferocious warrior like Kato Kiyomasa, etc. He fought at 3 of the Kawanakajima battles against the Takeda and led the vanguard force for the Uesugi at the 4th battle. For some reason, Kenshin suspected Kageie of treason and ordered his death. Something that he would regret for the rest of his life.
