== Battle of Bishamon's Favor ==
The Lion Clan sought to besiege Kyuden Asako, and after three days Hidehira challenged the Lion commander to a duel of yarijutsu. The Lion was badly wounded in the ensuing match, and the Lion subsequently withdrew their army. Hidehira built the Shrine of Bishamon's Gift to commemorate the victory in the Battle of Bishamon's Favor, placing his grandfather's broken spear within the sacred housing of the shrine.
