| Yamamoto
Kansuke (b. ????, )(d. 1561) was one of Takeda Shingen's most trusted Twenty-Four
Generals. He was a brilliant strategist, and is particularly known for
his plan which led to victory in the fourth battle of Kawanakajima against
Uesugi Kenshin. However, Yamamoto never lived to see his plan succeed;
thinking it to have failed, he charged headlong into the enemy ranks, dying
valiantly in battle.
Legend says that Kansuke was blind in one eye and lame, but a fierce
warrior nevertheless. In various works of art, he is depicted holding a
naginata as a support for his weak leg.
