English: It was because Hideyoshi built Takaradera Castle at Yamazaki, implemented 'Kenchi' at Yamazaki and Tanba and made friendship with some warlords of ODA clan informally, so in October 1582 Katusie delivered letters to impeach Hideyoshi with Kazumasu TAKIGAWA and Nobutaka ODA to other warlords.
Japanese: 原因は秀吉が山崎に宝寺城を築城し、さらに山崎と丹波で検地を実施し、私的に織田家の諸大名と誼を結んでいったためであるが、天正10年（1582年）10月に勝家は滝川一益や織田信孝と共に秀吉に対する弾劾状を諸大名にばらまいた。

Japanese: また、信雄も家康も秀吉の財力・兵力に圧倒されていたことは事実で、11月11日、信雄は家康に無断で秀吉と単独講和した。
English: Ieyasu lost a legitimate reason because Nobukatsu had concluded a peace, so that he withdrew to Mikawa as well.
Japanese: また、家康も信雄が講和したことで秀吉と戦うための大義名分が無くなり、三河に撤退することとなった。

Japanese: その後、秀吉は天正14年（1586年）には妹・朝日姫を家康の正室として、さらに母・大政所を人質として家康のもとに送り、配下としての上洛を家康に促す。
English: Yoshishige OTOMO, a warlord of Bingo province was very surprised at luxuriousness of this castle and praised 'the most wonderful castle in the world'.
Japanese: 豊後国の大名・大友義鎮は、この城のあまりの豪華さに驚き、「三国無双の城である」と称えた。

Japanese: しかし城の一部に防御上の問題が有り、秀吉自身もそこを気にしていたと言われている（のちの大坂の役で真田信繁（幸村）は、防御の弱さを指摘されていた箇所に真田丸と呼ばれる砦を築き、大坂城の防御を大幅に強し、徳川勢を大いに苦しめた）。
English: There is an opinion that Hideyoshi was asked to be a Shogun from Imperial Court but declined (Shin HORI 'Political blueprint of Nobunaga and Hideyoshi, and Emperor' "History of Japan (13) Unifying Japan and the invasion of Korea" Yoshikawa Kobunkan Press, 2003, ISBN 4642008136).

Japanese: また、四国の長宗我部元親に対しても、弟・羽柴秀長を総大将として、毛利輝元や小早川隆景らも出陣させるという大規模なもので、総勢10万という大軍を四国に送り込んだ。
English: Motochika was against this, but surrendered Hideyoshi on July 25, judging from the disparity of force.
Japanese: これに対して元親は抵抗したが、兵力の差などから7月25日、秀吉に降伏する。
English: On July 11 he was assigned to be Kanpaku as an adopted son of Sakihisa KONOE and given a surname of TOYOTOMI; this is understood as a change of surname from HASHIBA to TOYOTOMI, but HASHIBA was a family name (myoji) and TOYOTOMI was a surname (honsei), so they were different.
Japanese: 7月11日には近衛前久の猶子として関白宣下を受け、天正14年（1586年）9月9日には豊臣の姓を賜ってこれを羽柴から豊臣への改姓と誤解されることが非常に多いが、羽柴は名字、豊臣は本姓であり、両者は性質が異なる別物である。
English: On December 25, he promoted to Daijodaijin and established his government (TOYOTOMI administration); "Kugyo honin" describes that it was on December 19 (lunar date) but "Kanemi-kyo ki" describes that the assignment was held before coronation ceremony of Emperor Goyouzei on the same day so that the writer of 'Kugyo honin' seemed to hesitate to show the truth (Masanobu HASHIMOTO "A research of modern aristocratic society").
Japanese: 、12月25日、太政大臣に就任し『公卿補任』には12月19日_(旧暦)と記載されているが、『兼見卿記』に後陽成天皇即位式当日に式に先立って任命が行われたとされており、『公卿補任』はその事実を憚ったとされている（橋本政宣『近世公家社会の研究』）、政権を確立した（豊臣政権）。
English: There is an opinion that Hideyoshi asked Yoshiaki ASHIKAGA to adopt him as his son in order to establish 'TOYOTOMI Shogunate', but was rejected.
