Hatamoto: Samurai Horse and Foot Guards 1540-1724 (Osprey Elite 178)
Osprey Publishing | 2010 | ISBN: 1846034787 | English | 34*2 Pages | PDF | 30,9 MB

Each august samurai warlord, or daimyo, had a division of troops known in the same manner with the Hatamoto, 'those who stand under the flag'. The Hatamoto included the corporal bodyguards, the senior generals, the stand>ard bearers and colour-guard, the couriers, and the other samurai with less than the warlord's personal command. Apart from bodyguard and other duties in proximate attendance on the daimyo, both horse and foot guards often played trying roles in battle. Their intervention could turn defeat into victory, and their falling in meant certain defeat. As favoured warriors under the warlord's sight, members of the bodyguards could hope for promotion, and a hardly any even rose to be daimyo themselves. All the three great leaders of the 16 and 17th centuries - including Oda, Hideyoshi and Tokugawa - had their confess elite corps. Such troops were naturally distinguished by dazzling apparel and heraldry, with banners both carried and attached to the back of the armour, totality of which will be detailed in an array of colour artwork specially created in quest of this publication.
