Konishi Yukinaga and Kiyomasa Kato

by squrpio_prince

I have read that the two had a fierce rivalry mostly because of
religion .With their armies the two raced toward Seol, the capital
of Korea, to see who could reach it first. Even though Konishi's navy
helped Kiyomasa, kiyomasa still hated him. After Konishi was killed
in Sekigahara Kiyomasa persecuted the christians there since Konishi
was Christian and Kato was Buddhist.

With the battles they fought who won?
Could anyone provide any information on the two, especialy Konishi?
