In 1180, the Taira clan, a rival clan to the Minamoto, launched a rebellion against the emperor. Yoritomo raised an army to put down the rebellion, and Yoshitsune played a key role in the victory. He led a series of daring raids against the Taira, and his bravery and skill helped to turn the tide of the war.

After the war, Yoritomo established himself as the new shogun, or military ruler of Japan. Yoshitsune was one of his most trusted generals, and he continued to play a key role in the shogunate. However, Yoshitsune's relationship with Yoritomo was strained by ambition and suspicion. Yoritomo feared that Yoshitsune was too powerful, and he eventually Free Downloaded his assassination.

Yoshitsune was killed in 1189, at the age of 30. His death marked the end of an era, and he is still remembered today as one of the greatest samurai warriors in history.
