Toki Yoritō

Toki Yoritō (d. 1342), seventh son of Toki Yorisada, was a basara daimyō and governor of Mino. He fought for Ashikaga Takauji, and in 1338 against Kitabatake Akiie at Aonogahara, where the Taiheiki credits his thousand picked horsemen with pinning the great loyalist army.

Succeeding his father in 1339, he kept harrying Southern Court forces. In 1342, drunk, he reviled and overturned Retired Emperor Kōgon's ox cart; on Ashikaga Tadayoshi's order he was beheaded that December.
