Akamatsu Ujinori

Akamatsu Ujinori (1330–1386) was a Nanbokuchō-era commander, the fourth son of Akamatsu Norimura. A warrior famed for his strength, he quarreled with his three elder brothers and, unlike them, sided with the Southern Court in the Kannō Disturbance.

In 1355 he joined Yamana Tokiuji in briefly retaking Kyoto. In 1360 he joined Prince Akamatsu's rebellion, then surrendered to Sokuyū. He rose again in 1369 and 1386; after the last revolt, Hosokawa Yorimoto's forces trapped him and he killed himself at Kiyomizu-dera with over a hundred followers.
