Many conservative members of the <i><a href="/wiki/Samurai" title="Samurai">samurai</a></i>, the former powerful warrior class, were disgruntled as the reforms saw them lose their privileged social status, eliminating their income, and the establishment of universal <a href="/wiki/Military_conscription" class="mw-redirect" title="Military conscription">military conscription</a> had replaced much of their role in the society. The very rapid modernization and Westernization of Japan was resulting in massive changes to Japanese culture, dress and society, and appeared to many <i>samurai</i> to be a betrayal of the "<i>joi</i> " ("Expel the Barbarian") portion of the <i><a href="/wiki/Sonn%C5%8D_j%C5%8Di" title="Sonnō jōi">Sonnō jōi</a></i> justification used to overthrow the former Tokugawa shogunate. </p><p>On 24 October 1876, the <a href="/wiki/Shinp%C5%ABren_rebellion" title="Shinpūren rebellion">Shinpūren rebellion</a> was launched by the <i>Shinpūren</i>, a radical anti-Meiji <i>samurai</i> organization in <a href="/wiki/Kumamoto" title="Kumamoto">Kumamoto</a>, against the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Japanese_Army" title="Imperial Japanese Army">Imperial Japanese Army</a> and officials of <a href="/wiki/Kumamoto_Prefecture" title="Kumamoto Prefecture">Kumamoto Prefecture</a>. The Shinpūren rebels managed to inflict a surprising amount of damage to the army and Meiji officials, including the assassination of the Governor of Kumamoto Prefecture and the commander of the army's Kumamoto garrison. The Shinpūren rebellion was defeated by the next morning, but despite its failure the initial success inspired many anti-Meiji <i>samurai</i> in <a href="/wiki/Ky%C5%ABsh%C5%AB" class="mw-redirect" title="Kyūshū">Kyūshū</a> to launch their own rebellions. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Uprising">Uprising</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Akizuki_rebellion&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Uprising"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>On 27 October 1876, ex-<i>samurai</i> of the former Akizuki Domain in <a href="/wiki/Chikuzen_Province" title="Chikuzen Province">Chikuzen Province</a>, now part of the Meiji <a href="/wiki/Fukuoka_Prefecture" title="Fukuoka Prefecture">Fukuoka Prefecture</a>, launched an uprising in response to a call to action by the leaders of the Shinpūren rebellion three days earlier. The Akizuki rebels were led by five ex-<i>samurai</i> retainers of the Akizuki Domain who had formed an anti-Meiji political society called the <i>Kanjōtai</i>: Iso Jun, Toki Kiyoshi, Masuda Shizukata, Imamura Hyakuhachirō, and Miyazaki Kurumanosuke. The main points of contention for the <i>Kanjōtai</i> were the <a href="/wiki/Hait%C5%8D_edict" class="mw-redirect" title="Haitō edict">ban on carrying swords</a>, the government's refusal to follow <a href="/wiki/Shimazu_Hisamitsu" title="Shimazu Hisamitsu">Shimazu Hisamitsu</a>'s advice to halt the Westernization of the country, and especially the outcome of the <i><a href="/wiki/Seikanron" title="Seikanron">Seikanron</a></i> debate over invasion of <a href="/wiki/Joseon" title="Joseon">Korea</a> in 1873. The <i>Kanjōtai's</i> strong advocacy of overseas <a href="/wiki/Expansionism" title="Expansionism">expansionism</a> was rooted in the belief that such a war would spur the need for <i>samurai</i> warriors and restore the former <i>samurai</i> class to its former prominence and prestige, and the Meiji government's decision not to invade Korea had further angered them. Iso, Miyazaki and the other leaders of the Akizuki rebellion sought to enlist support from other local <i><a href="/wiki/Shizoku" title="Shizoku">shizoku</a></i> – the new social class of former <i>samurai</i> above <a href="/wiki/Commoner" title="Commoner">commoners</a> but with no special privileges. </p><p>The Akizuki rebels managed to gather a band of roughly 400 men from northern Kyushu, but not all agreed with Miyazaki's plan to march to the aid of the <i>Shinpūren</i> rebels. Eventually, only 200 men set off with the Akizuki rebels, under a white banner with the <i><a href="/wiki/Kanji" title="Kanji">kanji</a></i> <i>Recompense the Country</i><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">報国</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Hōkoku</i></span>)</span>. The revolt began with the killing of police officers at their post at Myōgan-ji, a local <a href="/wiki/Buddhism" title="Buddhism">Buddhist</a> temple. The rebels meant to rendezvous with a band of <i>shizoku</i> from the former <a href="/wiki/Toyotsu_Domain" class="mw-redirect" title="Toyotsu Domain">Toyotsu Domain</a> under <a href="/w/index.php?title=Sugyu_J%C5%ABr%C5%8D&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sugyu Jūrō (page does not exist)">Sugyu Jūrō</a>, and arrived at the rendezvous point on October 29 only to learn that their compatriots had already been arrested and imprisoned. The rebels were then attacked by the <a href="/wiki/Kokura" title="Kokura">Kokura</a> garrison of the <a href="/wiki/Imperial_Japanese_Army" title="Imperial Japanese Army">Imperial Japanese Army</a>, under the command of <a href="/wiki/Nogi_Maresuke" title="Nogi Maresuke">Nogi Maresuke</a>. Seventeen rebels and two government soldiers were killed. The rebels were chased into the hills, where, on October 31, Iso, Miyazaki, Toki, and four others committed <i><a href="/wiki/Seppuku" title="Seppuku">seppuku</a></i>. Meanwhile, Imamura led twenty-six warriors back to Akizuki, where they raided the elementary school and killed two government officials. They then burned down a liquor shop's storehouse where rebels had been previously detained, but by November 24, all the rebels were apprehended. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Aftermath">Aftermath</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Akizuki_rebellion&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Aftermath"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Masuda Shizukata had left for the former <a href="/wiki/Saga_Domain" title="Saga Domain">Saga Domain</a> in an attempt to raise support among the warriors there, but was apprehended on his way back to Akizuki on 26 October, even before his compatriots began their uprising.
