土方岁三

土方岁三（1835年5月31日－1869年6月20日，即为天保六年5月5日－明治二年5月11日），为新选组副长。讳义豊，雅号豊玉。化名内藤隼人。

生涯

出身

武藏国多摩郡石田村（现在东京都日野市石田）出生。一般认为他是六兄弟姐妹中最小的，近年的史料发现可能实为十兄弟姐妹中最小的。土方家出身为平民。出生前父亲已过世，六岁时母亲亦过世，而由二哥喜六夫妻俩扶养长大。

十一岁时在江户上野的“松坂屋和服店”（现在松坂屋上野店）当学徒，但不久即因和前辈争执而返回日野。十七岁时至江户传马町的和服店工作，亦因为和上司不和而回到日野。之后以其家相传的秘方伤药“石田散药”四处行商，并在此时至各地的剑道道场修业及比试。在日野的佐藤道场, 通过姐夫佐藤彦五郎结识了之后的天然理心流第四代传人岛崎胜太（之后的新选组局长近藤勇）。岁三在安政六年（1859年）3月29日、正式成为天然理心流的入门弟子。文久3年2月，岁三随着近藤道馆的师兄弟一起参加幕府上京都的浪士组召募。

新选组副长

文久3年（1863年）八月十八日政变后，他与近藤勇所参加的壬生浪士组因功赐名为新选组。近藤勇原本与芹泽鸭、新见锦共同领导，但芹泽与新见二人在京都经常酒醉闹事，甚至勒索，后新见锦切腹、近藤派并肃正了芹泽和其党羽、自此近藤勇终于得以一伸报国之志，而土方则就任副长，负责京都的治安警护维持。

新选组的权力集中在局长，出谋划策则由副长土方承担。元治元年（1864年）6月5日池田屋事件时、土方率队前往长州土佐藩士进出频繁的四国屋进行搜索，却不见可疑人物，旋即前往池田屋支援近藤等人。新选组在池田屋事件之后得到破格的恩赏。

新选组的局中法度，对违法犯纪和无故叛逃的队士相当严格，往往切腹是唯一的惩罚。连总长山南敬助叛逃之举，也被下令切腹。

戊辰战争

庆应3年（1867年）6月他被封为幕臣，但同年10月14日即发生大政奉还、12月9日王政复古时事实上幕府已经瓦解。庆应4年1月3日，以鸟羽伏见之战为前哨的戊辰战争爆发，土方代替于墨染事件中负伤的局长近藤勇率领新选组参战，但在皇军新式枪炮前败北。土方觉悟到冷兵器的时代已经过去，而开始致力引进西洋军备。

鸟羽伏见之战战败的幕府军从大坂往江户撤退后，近藤化名大久保刚、土方化名内藤隼人避走甲斐，于3月6日甲州胜沼之战再度败退。4月3日时在皇军包围下，土方阻止了近藤的切腹谢罪，并前往江戸向胜海舟请求赦免近藤，但胜海舟未能成功说服皇军，庆应4年（1868年）4月25日、近藤勇在板桥（现在JR板桥站前）被斩首。

是年4月11日，江户城无血开城。土方率流山残部与幕府军主力会师。之后，土方和立见尚文、秋月登之助于半日内攻破皇军名将有马藤太镇守的宇都宫城（关东七大名城之一，素有难攻不落之名）。但是壬生之战中，土方不幸于乱军中被地面跳弹所伤，转进会津休养了三个月，并在此时兴建了供奉近藤勇的天宁寺。

8月会津战争，土方前往庄内藩寻求援军支援，之后在仙台加入了榎本武扬率领的旧幕府海军继续奋战新政府军。与榎本共同出席奥羽越列藩同盟军议、但奥羽越列藩同盟不久即瓦解、同盟藩一一向皇军屈服投降，遂率领新选组残部和桑名藩士乘上大江号、与榎本武扬于10月12日自仙台折滨（现宫城县石卷市折滨）出航、前往虾夷地（北海道）。

箱馆战争

10月20日、于虾夷地鹫之木上陆后、土方被任为兼道军总督攻向五棱郭城。箱馆（今函馆市）・五棱郭占领后、土方率领额兵队直扑松前城（福山城），未几应声陷落。同时、榎本武扬率领海军掩护、但开阳号军舰却在江差冲遇上暴风雨而触礁沉没。12月15日榎本为招待各国领事返回五棱郭，并举办亚洲第一次记名选举。开票结果，由通晓国际公法的榎本武扬担任总裁，并公告列强，成立虾夷共和国继续对抗新政府军。土方就任陆军奉行并（陆军副司令，中将缺）、兼箱馆市中取缔（警察总长）及陆海军裁判局长（陆海军宪兵总监）。

先有近代东洋海战史首见之接舷作战，也就是著名的宫古湾海战，土方以回天一舰突入新政府军泊地，强袭官军旗舰甲铁，但因甲铁拥有新兵器格林机枪而不幸功败垂成。

明治2年（1869年）6月20日（阴历5月11日）、新政府军箱馆战争总攻击开始、新选组队士岛田魁守备的辩天台场被新政府军包围，陷入孤立。土方率领少数士兵突围相救。土方一夫当关，力阻自七重滨大举进犯的新政府军于一本木关口，却不幸在乱战之中腹部中弹，落马不治。不久榎本武扬开城投降，虾夷共和国灭亡，土方的遗体下落不明，而其他战死者则被埋葬在五棱郭内。

其他

土方岁三与新选组的故事成为日本大众文化脍炙人口的一环，在往后的小说和电影、动漫中都有不少以他为题材。在日本更有不少土方迷成立的社团。

Hijikata Toshizō (土方歳三, May 31, 1835 – June 20, 1869) was a Japanese warrior. As Vice-Commander (副長, Fukucho) of the Shinsengumi, he resisted the Meiji Restoration.

Background

Hijikata Toshizō Yoshitoyo (土方歳三義豊) was born on May 31, 1835, in the Ishida village, Tama region of Musashi Province (present day Ishida, Hino), Japan. He was the youngest of six children (later records discovered in recent years revealed that he was actually the youngest among the ten children), and his father Hijikata Yoshiatsu (Hayato), a well-to-do farmer, died a few months before his birth. His eldest brother Tamejiro, was born blind and as a result, could not inherit the family property. His 3rd older brother Daisaku (later Kasuya Ryojin), was adopted to another family and would later become a physician. His eldest sister Shuu died when he was about three years old and his mother Etsu also died when he was six years old, and he was therefore raised by his 2nd older brother Kiroku and sister-in-law.

He was apparently tall compared to the average Japanese men of the period, and it is said that he was very handsome. He was said to be spoiled at an early age and was alleged to be mean to all but his friends and family. This changed when a 21-year-old swordsman from the Aizu clan known for opposing the Reformists was forced to commit seppuku. When Hijikata attended the man's funeral, he apparently cried in public.

Hijikata spent his youth selling his family's Ishida sanyaku (medicine for treating injuries such as bruises and broken bones) while practicing his self-taught kenjutsu. His brother-in-law, Satō Hikogorō, who was married to his older sister Nobu, managed a Tennen Rishin-ryū dojo in Hino; through Satō, Hijikata later met Kondō Isami and was formally enrolled at the Tennen Rishin-ryū's Shieikan in 1859. Although Hijikata himself never fully mastered the Tennen Rishin-ryū, it is said that he managed to develop the "Shinsengumi-Kenjutsu" fighting style from the Tennen Rishin-ryū.

An arrangement was made by his eldest brother Tamejiro for him to marry Okoto, the daughter of the shamisen shop owners. Since he had already planned to join the Rōshigumi with Kondō Isami, Hijikata told them that after he got a promotion, he would carry out his marriage.

Shinsengumi period

However, Serizawa and Niimi began fighting, drinking, and extorting money from merchants in Kyoto, which started to tarnish the reputation of Shinsengumi and earned the group the derogatory nickname of "Wolves of Mibu" (壬生狼, Miburō). Hijikata found enough proof against Niimi in these matters and ordered him to commit seppuku on October 19. Later on October 30 (or October 28) at night, Hijikata and the selected Shinsengumi members went into the house of Yagi Gennojō and assassinated Serizawa, his mistress Oume, and one of his followers Hirayama Goro, with Hirama Jūsuke been the only survivor fled that night. Kondō became the sole leader of Shinsengumi, with Yamanami Keisuke as his Vice-Commander.In 1863, Hijikata and Kondō Isami joined the Rōshigumi in Edo, they arrived in Mibu, Kyoto and remained there as the Mibu Rōshigumi while the rest returned to Edo. Later, when Mibu Rōshigumi was renamed as the Shinsengumi, Kondō and two other men, Serizawa Kamo and Niimi Nishiki, became joint leaders of the group, and Hijikata served as one of the deputy leaders. Shinsengumi served as a special police force in Kyoto that fought against the Reformists under Matsudaira Katamori, the Daimyō of Aizu.

Some time after the Zenzaiya incident, Yamanami Keisuke tried to leave Shinsengumi, despite the regulation against deserters. As a result, he committed seppuku with Okita Sōji as his Kaishakunin on March 20 (lunar calendar February 23), 1865; and Hijikata took over as Vice-Commander. Due to his position in the Shinsengumi, which would be dangerous for anyone close to him, Hijikata felt that he had no choice but to cancel his marriage engagement with Okoto. Although he later had many lovers, he never came close to making a commitment to any of them.

The Shinsengumi grew to 140 men, which included a number of farmers and merchants whose livelihood would be threatened if the Tokugawa shogunate was overthrown. The regulations set up by Shinsengumi within Kyoto were strict and Hijikata was known to be harsh in enforcing them, hence his nickname: "Demon Vice-Commander" (鬼の副長, Oni no fukucho). Even within the Shinsengumi itself, regulations were strictly enforced by Hijikata. As usual, deserters and traitors were forced to commit seppuku.

Hijikata owned, among others, a sword signed "Izumi no Kami Kanesada" (和泉守兼定), made by the 11th and last generation^{[clarification needed]} Aizu Kanesada (1837-1903).

Together with the rest of the Shinsengumi, Hijikata became a hatamoto in 1867 and took the name of Naitō Hayato (but reverted to his original name after Kondō was captured and executed during the Boshin war). He was given the rank of Yoriai (寄合格 Yoriai-kaku) in early 1868.

Boshin War

Hijikata Toshizo

On March 29, 1868, Kondō, Hijikata and the Kōyō Chinbutai resisted an attack by the Imperial forces at the Battle of Kōshū-Katsunuma for about two hours but lost, and they were scattered and fled to Edo.Following the Boshin War in 1868, Kondō and Hijikata led the Shinsengumi in their final battles against the new government and fought in the Battle of Toba–Fushimi in January 1868. The Shinsengumi returned to Edo and was later reformed into a unit known as the Kōyō Chinbutai (甲陽鎮撫隊, "Pacification Corps") and departed from Edo for Kōfu Castle on March 24 upon orders to suppress the uprisings there. But while on the way there, they received news on March 28 that the Kōfu Castle was taken by Imperial Court forces led by Itagaki Taisuke and later settled at a town of Katsunuma five miles east of Kōfu.

On April 11, 1868, Kondō, Hijikata and the Kōyō Chinbutai departed Edo again and later set up a temporary headquarters at the Kaneko family estate, northeast of Edo. They later moved to a new headquarters in Nagareyama on April 25, 1868.

During the training at Nagareyama on April 26, 1868, the Kōyō Chinbutai were caught by surprise by the 200 strong Imperial forces led by Vice-chief of Staff Arima Tota of Satsuma Domain and Kondō was ordered to go with them to their camp at Koshigaya. He was later brought to Itabashi on April 27, 1868, for questioning. On the same day Hijikata went to Edo to see Katsu Kaishū and asked for his help in getting a pardon for Kondō. On the following day, a messenger arrived at Itabashi with a letter seemingly written by Katsu requesting that Kondō's life to be spared, but the messenger was arrested and the request was denied.

Following his trial on April 31, 1868, Kondō was executed at Itabashi execution grounds on May 17, 1868. Hijikata, convalesced from a foot injury sustained at the Battle of Utsunomiya Castle, brought Kondō's hair to Aizu and was said to have personally supervised the erection of Kondō's grave memorial at Tenneiji Temple.

Following the Battle of Bonari Pass, the next day on October 7, 1868, Hijikata met Saitō Hajime at the Inawashiro Castle and stayed at the Saitoya inn in Wakamatsu. When Hijikata decided to retreat from Aizu, Saitō and a small group of Shinsengumi parted with Hijikata and continued to battle in the Battle of Aizu until the very end. Hijikata and his rest of the Shinsengumi went to Sendai, where he joined up with Enomoto Takeaki's fleet.

He knew he was fighting a losing battle, and told the physician Matsumoto Ryōjun:

I am not going to battle to win. With the Tokugawa government about to collapse, it would be a disgrace if no one is willing to go down with it. That is why I must go. I will fight the best battle of my life to die for the country.

In October 1868, Hijikata and Ōtori Keisuke led Shogunate forces to occupy the fortress of Goryōkaku in the Battle of Hakodate, and continued to eliminate local resistance. When the short-lived Ezo Republic was founded in December, Hijikata was made a Deputy Defence Minister (Vice-minister of the Army). Imperial troops continued to attack by land and sea.

On May 6, 1869, Hijikata led a daring but doomed raid to steal the imperial warship Kōtetsu in the Battle of Miyako Bay, in the early morning, a number of oppositionists managed to board the ship via the Kaiten warship, but Kōtetsu repelled the attack and mowed them down with a Gatling gun. Many others including the captain of Kaiten were also killed by gunfire from the Imperial ships. The battle lasted only thirty minutes; Hijikata, the survivors and the Kaiten retreated to Hakodate.

Later on the fourth week of May 1869, Hijikata led the 230-strong Republic of Ezo forces and the surviving Shinsengumi against 600 strong Imperial forces during the Battle of Futamata for sixteen hours and were forced to retreat. The Imperial forces attacked again on the next day, only to retreat. On the following night, Hijikata led a successful raid on the Imperial forces' camp, forcing them to flee. Hijikata and the forces later retreated to Hakodate on June 10.

Death

During the Battle of Hakodate, the final battle of the Boshin War, Hijikata summoned his 16-year-old page, Ichimura Tetsunosuke on June 14 (lunar calendar May 5), 1869, to a private room in an inn. There, he entrusted Ichimura with a death poem, his katana, a letter, a photograph of himself, and several strands of his hair. Ichimura was instructed to bear them to the home of Hijikata's brother-in-law Satō Hikogorō in Hino. The death poem entrusted to Ichimura reads:

Though my body may decay on the island of Ezo, my spirit guards my lord in the East.

In the final conflict of the revolution, on June 20 (lunar calendar May 11), 1869, Hijikata was killed near the Ippongi Kanmon (一本木関門) while leading his troops on horseback by a bullet that shattered his lower back. His body was later claimed by Koshiba Chōnosuke and others.

Three days later on June 23 (lunar calendar May 14), 1869, a remaining group of surviving Shinsengumi members under the last commander Sōma Kazue had surrendered at Benten Daiba. A week after his death, the Goryōkaku fortress was taken, and the military of Ezo Republic surrendered to the Meiji government on June 27, 1869, marked the end of Boshin War.

It is unknown where Hijikata was buried, but it is believed that his body was buried either at Goryōkaku, Hekketsuhi or Ganjoji.

Grave memorials and monuments

The oldest grave memorial of Hijikata Toshizo in Hakodate

The first grave memorial of Hijikata was at Wakamatsu-chō, Hakodate, where he was killed, near the reconstructed Ippongi Kanmon in the present day compound of the Hakodate Welfare Centre.

Grave memorial of Hijikata family (Hijikata Toshizō's on the right) at Sekidenji, Hino, Tokyo, Japan

A grave memorial of Hijikata was also erected at Sekidenji temple in Hino, Tokyo, Japan.

Other grave memorials were located at Shōmyōji (Hakodate, Hokkaido), Tenneji (Aizuwakamatsu), Jutokuji (Kita, Tokyo), Entsūji (Kita, Tokyo), etc.

A monument known as Hekketsuhi, was erected at Hakodate in memory of about 800 people, including Hijikata, who died during the Boshin War.

In 1875, Nagakura Shinpachi, with the help of Matsumoto Ryōjun and several of his surviving former Shinsengumi comrades including Saitō Hajime among others, erected the monument known as the Grave of Shinsengumi for Kondō Isami, Hijikata Toshizō, and the fallen comrades of the Shinsengumi at Jutoku-ji temple boundary in Itabashi, near Itabashi Station in Tokyo.

The Hijikata Toshizō Museum was later established in 1994 near the Sekidenji temple.

In popular culture

The Shinsengumi have become a popular subject for films, television, and manga and anime, ranging from historical drama to comedy and romance. As a leader of the group, Hijikata is usually a prominent character in such productions.

The novel Moeyo Ken, written by Ryōtarō Shiba, is a dramatization of Hijikata's life. The novel was adapted into a film in 1966 and a television series in 1970 where Hijikata was played by Asahi Kurizuka.

Hijikata is depicted in the 1999 film Gohatto ("Taboo") (played by Takeshi Kitano) and the 2013 NHK Taiga drama Yae no Sakura (played by Jun Murakami). He was also played by Koji Yamamoto in both the 2004 NHK Taiga drama series Shinsengumi!
