You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 35.170.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:20, 2 July 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Katsurao Jyo.jpg|thumb|Yoshikiyo's Katsurao Castle]]

'''Murakami Yoshikiyo''' (村上 義清, 1501–1573) was a Japanese samurai from the ((ill|Murakami clan|ja|信濃村上氏)) and retainer of the [[Uesugi clan]] during the [[Sengoku period]] of the 16th century. Yoshikiyo followed in fighting against both [[Takeda Nobutora]] and his son [[Takeda Shingen]]. Yoshikiyo was also a very close ally under [[Uesugi Kenshin]] and one of Shingen's bitterest opponents for his high kill-counts in their conflicts.


Before Murakami came into conflict with Takeda, they had good diplomatic relations as Yoshikiyo had sent back Oi Sadataka, a common enemy of both Murakami and Takeda when he was captured in Murakami's domain back to Takeda's base city of Kōfu as a prisoner for execution.

In 1542, Murakami joined a coalition with [[Ogasawara Nagatoki]], [[Suwa Yorishige]], and Kiso Yoshiyasu to oppose Takeda Shingen's growing forces. The two sides met at the [[Battle of Sezawa]], with the coalition suffering a defeat in the battle.<ref name=Turnbull2>((Cite book |last=Turnbull |first=Stephen |title=The Samurai Sourcebook |publisher=Cassell & Co. |year=1998 |isbn=1854095234 |page=209,212))</ref>

In 1546, when Shingen and the Takeda forces arrived to attack Toishi Castle. Yoshikiyo came to the rescue commanding 6000 soldiers, crushing Shingen's spearhead and claiming the life of some commanders such as [[Amari Bizen]] and [[Yokota Bitchū]].<ref name=Sato>((Cite book |last=Sato |author-link=Hiroaki Sato (translator) |first=Hiroaki |title=Legends of the Samurai |publisher=Overlook Duckworth |year=1995 |isbn=9781590207307 |page=209))</ref> He suffered defeat after some of Takeda's more brilliant strategists, [[Yamamoto Kansuke (general)|Yamamoto Kansuke]], [[Sanada Yukitaka]] and his son [[Sanada Masayuki]] join the fray and each score their brilliant strategems to ensure Harunobu's series of victories; however, in 1547 Yoshikiyo settled the score with Shingen, who had just enjoyed victory for seizing Shiga castle. Yoshikiyo caught him off guard and attacked him with entire force and routed him.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=mVTAsBrdC8oC&dq=yoshikiyo+murakami+uesugi&pg=PP223 Legends of the Samurai ;Hiroaki Sato;Penguin; 2012]; ((ISBN|9781468301373))</ref> One year later in 1548 he provided more severe defeats for Takeda by killing 3 of Shingen's generals [[Itagaki Nobukata]], [[Amari Torayasu]], and Hajikano Den'emon in [[Battle of Uedahara]] in similar full-scale counterattack as before and causing Shingen to retreat into Kai after losing 700 men<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=sSFtAAAAMAAJ&q=yoshikiyo+murakami Ogyu Sorai's Journey To Kai Ni Issue 48 ; Scandinavian Institute of Asian Studies monograph series; Curzon ; Taylor & Francis; 2004 ; he University of Michigan] ((ISBN|9780700701582))</ref>

In 1550 he [[Sieges of Toishi|held Toishi Castle]] for 1 year against [[Sanada Yukitaka]] and suffered a loss but not before inflicting a loss with the death one of Takeda's general, [[Yokota Takatoshi]].  Then in 1553, [[Siege of Katsurao|Katsurao]] happened<ref name=Turnbull2/> and Yoshikiyo lost [[Katsurao Castle]].<ref>((cite web|url=https://kotobank.jp/word/%E8%91%9B%E5%B0%BE%E5%9F%8E-179832|title=日本の城がわかる事典「葛尾城」の解説|publisher=kotobank|language=ja|access-date=17 October 2021))</ref>

In 1553 he was forced to abandon Shinano after losing to Takeda in [[Siege of Kannomine]] and forced to seek aid to Kenshin and serve as his retainer.<ref name=kotobank>((cite web|url=https://kotobank.jp/word/%E6%9D%91%E4%B8%8A%E7%BE%A9%E6%B8%85-1114665|title=Murakami Yoshikiyo|publisher=kotobank|access-date=17 October 2021))</ref> Murakami was granted Nechi castle in [[Echigo]] for his service at the [[Battles of Kawanakajima]] as center division commander of the Uesugi army.

One source says at the fourth [[battle of Kawanakajima]] he had killed [[Takeda Nobushige]], Shingen's brother and one of his most important generals and strategists<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=tcNSwrxwq1IC&dq=yoshikiyo+murakami&pg=PA119 Uesugi Kenshin mōshi-jō(speeches of Uesugi Kenshin), Ansai zuihitsu, & Bu'in Sōwa]</ref> although another source was saying it was Kenshin himself who personally slew Nobushige<ref>Chronicler of Kawanakajima-gokado-kassenki; Hokuetsu-gundan</ref>

He was never able to restore his old territory and died in Echigo in 1573,<ref name=kotobank/> and his son Murakami Kunikiyo (Yamaura Kagekuni) became retainer of Uesugi.
