Katou Yashushi was Okumura Nagatomi's wife.   In 1584, Sassa Narimasa attacked Okumura's castle with 15,000 men.  She helped her husband protect the castle with only 300 men until Maeda Toshiie's reinforcements arrived.  In 1599, right before Maeda's death, Maeda gave Katou Yashushi two pieces of gold in appreciation for her bravery.
