Shindo Hiroshii (died 1582) was a samurai who served under Oda Nobunaga during the late 16th century.
Biography[edit | edit source]
As the chief executioner to Nobunaga, Hiroshii was placed in charge of interrogating, torturing, and executing his lord's enemies, using the execution site at Nanatsumatsu near Amagasaki. He was a close associate of fellow retainer Wada Koretake of the Wada clan. The two worked together in 1582 to try and rid Izumi Settsu of the Ikkō-ikki resistance led by Kyonyo, seeking to use their heads as a warning to anyone who dared oppose Nobunaga.[1]
One day, while preparing to execute a number of captives, Hiroshii was attacked by the Iga kunoichi Fujibayashi Naoe, who came seeking Koretake's whereabouts. Although Hiroshii and his men put up a fight, they were ultimately defeated and killed by Naoe, who then searched Hiroshii's personal effects and found a letter from Koretake, who was based at Amagasaki Castle.[1]
