Momonoi Tadakazu

Momonoi Tadakazu was a military commander of the early Nanboku-chō period, the son of Momonoi Tadatsune, shugo of Etchu Province. In 1362 he took up arms in Etchu for the Southern Court, fortifying Mount Isurugi against the Muromachi bakufu's forces in Noto.

In 1370 his father sent him to Nagasawa, where he was defeated and killed by the army of Shiba Yoshimasa, shugo of Etchu, at the Battle of Nagasawa.
