On March 14, 1497 (6th year of The Ming Dynasty), Moto was born in Suzumi Castle (Fukuhara Castle, Oe Maori Ichimon Fukuhara Toshijo Castle, who was also the maternal grandfather of Mori Motoyasu), and his young name was Matsuju maru, and the stone stele of the birth of Motohara is preserved in the local area today. In 1500 (9 Akyō), his father Hiromoto decided to abdicate the throne to Kogen, a son of a concubine, due to his involvement in a dispute between the Ouchi clan and the shogunate, and Matsushimaru and Hiromoto moved to Tajibi Ape Castle. In 1501 (the first year of Bunkame), his mother died, in 1506 (Eijō 3) Hiromoto died of alcohol poisoning, and Matsuju Maru (元就) grew up losing both of his parents. Later, Matsujumaru's castle was occupied by his courtier Inoue Motomori, so Matsujumaru was jokingly called "Beggar Wakado". Matsuju Maru is raised by her adoptive mother Sugi Daikō (Hiromoto side chamber). In 1511, he served as Yuan, named Yuan.

In 1516, Kogen died of illness and was inaugurated by Kogen's young eldest son, Yukimatsu Maru. The nearby Anyi Takeda clan saw the chaos of the Maori clan and began to invade the Maori territory, and Takeda Motoharu led a large army to attack arita castle of the Yoshikawa clan. The Yoshikawa clan asked the Maori clan for help, and Moto sent troops to save Arita Castle, instead of Yukimaru, which was the first battle that Motoyasu participated in. He used a ruse to lure the Takeda vanguard Kumagaya Motona to pursue and fall into the ambush circle of the Maori clan, Kumagaya Motonaga's entire army was destroyed, and later the general Takeda Motoharu wanted to support the Kumagaya team, and the two armies broke out in a scuffle near the city, and finally takeda Motoharu was killed by the sniper of the Maori archers (the Battle of Aritanaka Izuku), which was later known as the "Barrel Narrow Room of the Western Kingdom". The Anyi Takeda clan then declined.

In 1523 (Ōnaga 3rd year), Moto supported Niko to attack the Ōuchi clan (Ōnai Bunshin), which supported the Ouchi clan, for the Battle of Gyeongsan Castle, Moto used a trick to lure the enemy to kaesong kaesong and then capture Gyeongsan Castle,[3] thus gaining prestige, but also making the Ninko clan feel threatened, and Mori Yukimaru died of illness at the age of 9 after this battle, and eventually the courtiers elected Motoyasu as the heir of the Mori family. Opposing his succession included two elders, Hirohide Saka and Katsura Watanabe, who, at the instigation of the Niko clan, was instructed by the shigeto shigeru Kamei Hidetsune to rebel and was replaced by Motoyasu's younger brother Mototsune. However, Yuan, with the assistance of Shido Hiroka, eliminated the rebel forces.
Battle of Itsukushima
In 1525 (Ōnaga 5), due to the hostility between the Maori clan and the Niko clan and the internal friction of the heir of the family governor, Moto decided to submit to Ouchi Yoshiyuki.

In 1529, he eliminated the Iwami kunihito of Ishimi, a foreign relative who had intervened in the Maori family through Yukimaru Yukimaru. In the same year, he repaired his relationship with his long-time old enemy, Shinodo. He married the eldest daughter, Maori Goryū, to the Shinto clan governor of the Shinto clan, The Son of The Son of The Son, to the Takashi Family. Later, the Maori clan also recruited the Ikujoyama Amano clan and the former Takeda clan vassal Kumagaya clan, who had a vendetta against their father, to ensure the status of the lord of the Anyi Kingdom.
In 1539, the Ouchi clan eliminated the Daimyo Shōgun clan of Kitakyushu, and relations between the Ouchi clan and the Otomo clan were reconciled. Therefore, he reassuringly launched an attack on the Anyi Takeda clan, first marching towards Sato Ginzan Castle, and Mori Moto followed the battle, and the lord Takeda Shinshin fled Sato Ginzan Castle, once to Wakasa Domain, and later became a vassal of the Niko clan.

In 1551, Ouchi Yoshitaka was overthrown by his vassal Tao Haruhito (the change of Danin Temple), Ouchi Yoshitaka and his concubine Kametomaru were killed, Tao Haruhito did not want to bear the charge of rebellion, so he passed over to the Toyoko Kingdom Daitomo clan to the Ouchi clan, and changed his name to Ouchi Yoshinaga to succeed the Ouchi clan as a puppet. Maori Yuan had always been unquestionable about Tao Qingxian's rebellious actions, and after Yoshitaka's death, Yuan preemptively attacked the Toga castle of the Hiraga clan and the Ōuchi clan's Makiyama Castle, and Moto sent troops to support hiraga Hiroshi of the Hiraga clan to regain the position of governor of the Hiraga clan, which had been assigned by Ōuchi Yoshitaka and from the Kohayakawa clan, and Hiraga Takaho committed suicide in desperation. However, the Maori clan still did not publicly break with Tao Qingxian, and the Iwami Kuni Yoshimi clan governor and Ōuchi Yoshiyuki's son-in-law Yoshimi Masayoshi first announced his crusade against Tao Qingxian and contacted Yuan to work together. Yoshimi Masarai's strength disparity with Tao Qingxian's strength was huge, and he was soon defeated and surrendered. However, at this time, the Maori clan openly broke off diplomatic relations with Tao Qingxian and continued to attack the western part of an yiguo, which was originally controlled by the Ouchi clan.

In view of the gap in the mobilization of the two armies, the Maori army can only gather up to 4,000 troops, while the Tao army can gather 30,000 troops. If Mao Liyuan chose to fight Tao Qingxian head-on, it could be said that there was no chance of victory. Mao Liyuan decided to use a strategy against Tao Qingxian. First of all, Mao Liyuan forged a letter and deliberately leaked it to Tao Qingxian, which involved Maori's contact with Tao Qingxian's powerful minister Jiang Liangfangrong, and jiang Liangfangrong agreed to serve as an internal response. Tao Qingxian was not afraid of deception, and immediately hunted down and killed Jiang Liangfangrong. At the same time, in order to avoid being attacked by the Nizi clan during the decisive battle with the Ouchi clan, Maori Yuan once again used the strategy of forging letters, and also deliberately leaked the letters to the Nizi clan governor Nizi Haruhisa, who pretended to have secret relations with Niko Kunihisa, who was also the uncle and father-in-law of Niko Haruhisa, the leader of the elite shingu party, so that Haruhisa doubted the loyalty of the Shingu Party, and as a result, Haruhisa summoned the Shingu party to Tsukiyama Tomita Castle to see him, and successfully booby-trapped and killed most of the core members of the Shingu Party, including Kunihisa and his sons Makoto, Keihisa, and Nichihisa. Makoto counts. Makoto's fourth son, Who fled to Tofuku-ji Temple in Kyoto under the protection of his nursing mother, was Noneko Katsuhisa, a neoniko who was later supported by Yamanaka Yukimori. In 1554, after two elaborate counter-plots, Moto succeeded in weakening the Ouchi and Nishi clans.
In order to prepare for the war, Maoriyuan still needed to do more preparatory work, he thought that tao Qingxian must be lured to the decisive battle of Itsukushima in the south of AnYiguo, and took advantage of the terrain there that was not conducive to the activities of large troops to eliminate the Tao army in one fell swoop, so he first built Miyao Castle on Itsukushima Island, sent Naoyuki Heichi and Shinri Miyauchi Touchi to lead a small number of soldiers to station, and then sent spies into the territory of the Ouchi clan to spread rumors, claiming that Maoriyuan was afraid of Tao Qingxian attacking Miyao Castle, so that Tao Qingxian believed it to be true. In order to strengthen the effect of the plan, Yuan instructed Katsura Motosumi, the lord of Sakurao Castle, who was his vassal and on the other side of Itsukushima, to write a letter to Tao Qingxian in the name of revenge for his father, and was willing to serve as the internal assistant of Tao's army and cooperate with him in attacking Itsukushima Yunyun. After these few events, Yuan succeeded in convincing Tao Qingxian that conquering Miyao Castle would eliminate the Maori clan.
In 1554, Tao Qingxian sent the pioneer Miyagawa Tonaga to attack the Maori clan with three thousand troops, and the two sides fought at Mount Orishiki Hata, which was the Battle of Orishiki Hata. Miyagawa's forces merged with the anti-Maori forces of the Anyi kingdom, and the whole army increased to 7,000 people, but it was surrounded by four fathers and sons from three sides, Maori Motogen, Yoshikawa Motoharu, and Kohayakawa Takakei, and Miyagawa Washikawa was defeated and killed, and the Anyi kuni who supported the Ouchi clan, Renno Takashi, was surrendered by the Yuan, and the Anyi kingdom completely fell into the hands of the Maori clan.
Ancient battlefield of the Battle of Itsukushima
In 1555, Tao Qingxian decided to personally conquer Itsukushima despite the opposition of the heavy minister Hironaka Takahata and others, and Hironaka Takahata and others advocated that the Maori clan should be attacked by land. Tao Haruhito received assistance from the Yashiro Island Naval Army, and the whole army crossed the sea in 500 ships to attack Itsukushima Miyao Castle. It was at this time that Māori Moto succeeded in winning the help of the Miyakami Navy of the Seto Inland Sea Pirates[] and it is said that when Māori Moto asked for help from murakami Rinpoche, he only asked Murakami Rinpoche to lend ships for a day to carry Māori soldiers to Itsukushima. The main forces of the two sides fought at Itsukushima (The Battle of Itsukushima), maori Motohito, Takamoto and Motoharu landed on Itsukushima in a storm, and took advantage of the night to cross the tail of the game to raid the Tao army stationed in Tanooka under the hillside, on the other hand, Hayakawa Takakei and Kodama Tsuyoshi led the Maori water army and Murakami water army to surround itic island opposite the sea, and destroyed the Yashiro Island water army of the Ouchi clan, Miura Fangqing, etc. The Tao army on land was chaotic by the Maori army at night and collapsed. Takashi Hironaka and his son Takasuke tried unsuccessfully to organize soldiers to resist, and both were killed. In the end, maori yuan, with only 4,000 soldiers, defeated Tao Qingxian, who was 5 times larger than himself and claimed to have an army of 20,000, and Tao Qingxian himself fled all the way to Dayuanpu, where the Tao army landed, and he saw that the sea was full of Maori water troops, and he realized that there was no way to escape and committed suicide. After this battle, the Maori clan stepped up its attack on the Territory of the Ouchi clan and established hegemony across the two countries of Zhou Defense and Anyi.
In 1557, he sent an army to attack the Ouchi clan (Defense Commander Keisuke), defeated or surrendered the Ouchi clan's people one after another, such as Sugi Longtai, Shudu Longkang, Yamazaki Komori, Eira Kensho, etc., besieged Nagato and Yamashiro, the old Naito Takashi of the Ouchi clan, on the condition that the Maori clan promised to save the life of Ouchi Yoshinaga, after the surrender of Kaesong, but the Maori clan still forced Yoshinaga to commit suicide, and the Ouchi clan was also destroyed. In the same year, he also ceded the family governor to Long yuan, but continued to hold real power himself.
Expulsion of the Nizi clan and in his later years
Although the Maori clan controlled most of the old territory of the Ouchi clan in China, the Maori army repeatedly launched an offensive against the Nizi family in order to capture Iwami Ginzan, and in 1556 was defeated by Nizi Haruhisa (Shinohara Collapse), and in 1559 The Maori Yuan attacked again, although taking Onyo Castle, which was guarded by Ogasawara Nagao, but unable to take Yamabuki Castle, the Maori army was severely damaged by the raid of the Yamabuki castle keeper Motomitsu Tsunemitsu, and the Maori army was defeated and returned (the Battle of Shirusaka).
In December 1561 (Eiro 3), Niko Haruhisa died of illness and was succeeded by Niko Yoshihisa. There was chaos in the Nizi clan, and the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiaki intervened, although Motoyasu had no intention of coordinating reconciliation with the shogunate, but in order to save face, Moto decided to make peace with the Nizi clan, known in history as Yunyi peace. However, the Maori clan broke the peace treaty the following year, and in 1562 (Eiroku 4), the commander of the Nizi army's front line, Motomitsu Tokimitsu, was persuaded to surrender by maori yuan. The following year, troops were sent to attack the White Deer Castle of the Nizi Army, and after the Maori army captured the White Deer Castle, it basically surrounded the City of Tomita on Tsukiyama, and for the Nizi clan, the fall of the White Deer Castle was equivalent to the fact that the City of Tomita on the Moon Mountain had no barrier, and a large number of people were forced to surrender to the Maori clan. Later, he made sufficient preparations for the attack on Tsukiyama Tomita Castle. In 1563, the eldest male Maori Takamoto died suddenly and suddenly after meeting with the local people and Chi Makotoharu in The Bungo Kingdom, causing many blows to Moto, and it was rumored that Takamoto was poisoned and assassinated, and Moto ordered Chi Makoto and Takamoto's confidant Akagawa Motoho to commit suicide as a sign of responsibility.
In 1565, the Maori army began to encircle Tsukiyama Tomita Castle, and the first encirclement was repelled by the Nizi army. In September of the same year, the second siege was carried out, during which the rumors were successfully spread that the old Uyama Hisaharu of the Yunnizi clan had been communicated with the Maori clan, and Yoshihisa believed the rumors and beheaded Umyama Hisa, who was in charge of handling the food for the soldiers. After a long siege of the Maori army, the city began to lack food, the city began to replace rice with porridge, and soldiers surrendered one after another. In November, Niko Yoshihisa surrendered to the Maori army and transferred his two younger brothers to AnYiguo for more than two decades. By that time, the Maori clan had become the daimyō who controlled the Eight Kingdoms.

The Niko clan was still not officially destroyed, and some of the nichi clan's remnants still tried to resist, Yamanaka Yukimori elected Neko Makoto's son Neko Katsuhisa, who had been ordained in Kyoto, to try to restore the power of the Nizi clan, and the Otomo clan was also preparing to compete in Kyushu for the territories of Toyomaru and Chikugo Kingdom, which originally belonged to the Ouchi clan, and Ōuchi Yoshihiro, the nephew of the Otomo clan who had been exiled for many years, was aided by the Otomo clan in an attempt to restore the Ouchi clan, launching a surprise attack on Yamaguchi, and Maori was caught in a dilemma. In order to enter the gateway to Kitakyushu, Toyomae Munji Castle, the Mori clan repeatedly fought against the Ōtomo clan, and allied with the Akizuki clan of the ancient mountain castle, and plotted against the Tachibana Yama castle lord Tachibana Kanzai and takahashi Kanshine, the lord of The Ōtomo Clan, and after weighing the gains and losses, Māori Moto decided to reconcile with the Ōtomo army and withdraw his troops back to China to pacify the remnants of the Ouchi and Nishi clans. Maori relinquished Kyushu's territory and ceded Monji Castle, which Ōtomo Muneyoshi had been unable to capture, and eventually the Maori army defeated Ōuchi Keihiro, who had been aided by the Ōtomo clan, who had invaded The Siege. Although several castles in Izumo Were captured by the Nizi army, the Maori army successfully defended the dangerous Tsukiyama Tomita Castle. In 1570 (the first year of the Yuangui), Maori Huiyuan led his troops to defeat the Nizi army at the Battle of Bubu Mountain, completely expelling the Nizi army.
In Moto's later years, he began to contact with the active forces in Gyeonggi, and after the shogun Ashikaga Yoshiaki broke with Oda Nobunaga, he drew Maori Moto to participate in nobunaga's siege, but Moto refused Yoshiaki, and Moto maintained good relations with Nobunaga, and after Moto's death, Oda Nobunaga sent emissaries to mourn him.
In his later years, Moto entered the body and began to weaken, and once sought treatment from Ashikaga Yoshiaki Kosei Michizo, and successfully recovered. He died of illness in Yamashiro, Yoshida-gun, on June 14, 1571, probably due to aging or esophageal cancer
