△Rebellion of KagosakanoMiko OshikumanoMiko.
Now, when returning to Yamato, Empress's OkinagatarashihimenoMikoto doubted whether people weren't holding a rebel mind. Another mourning ship was prepared and Young was put on the mourning ship. And it spread the following rumor.
"Young has already died."
At this while traveling, KagosakanoMiko OshikumanoMiko heard that.It thought they waited and killed the Empress. They went into Toganu and hunted fortune-telling.
KagosakanoMiko was climbing on a yew and was seeing. Big, the wild boar with which it got angry has appeared. A wild boar dug the yew up and ate KagosakanoMiko immediately.
The younger brother's OshikumanoMiko wasn't scared at its state. He tried to promote military, wait and attack an empty mourning ship. Then Empress's military disembarked and fought each other.
At this time, OshikumanoMiko made ancestor's Isahinosukune of Kishibe in Naniha a general. A supporter of HitsuginoMiko made ancestor's NanihanekonotakefurukumanoMikoto of Waninowomi a general.
An army of HitsuginoMiko ran after enemy troops. When coming to Yamashiro, enemy troops rearranged a camp. Both sides fought each other equally.
TakefurukumanoMikoto used a trap and told a falsehood.
"OkinagatarashihimenoMikoto died already, so we don't have to fight any more." He cut a handle of a bow off and did a false surrender.

Enemy's general believed a lie, removed a handle from a bow and put a weapon back completely. So an army of HitsuginoMiko took a spare handle out from the inside of hair, strung a bow again, ran and shot.
Enemy troops escaped to Afusaka and left. Both sides confronted and fought again.The supporter cut all enemy troops after they ran, attacked, defeated it and went out to Sasanami (shore).
OshikumanoMiko and Isahinosukune ran together and were attacked. OshikumanoMiko took a ship, appeared on the water and composed the following poetry.
"Well, it's you. It will dive in Afuminoumi and die like a grebe more than it's broken from Furukuma."
They flung themselves in a sea and died.
