Take the following as truth: When the famous unifiers Nobunaga, Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa fought to end the 16th-century civil wars, Hideyoshi used Himeji as a base of operations against the recalcitrant warlords of Western Honshu.
Then the following statement: "Hideyoshi eventually defeated the warlords of Western Honshu." is true, false, or inconclusive?
