Former Japanese military leader (6)

I believe the answer is:

shogun

(Other definitions for shogun that I've seen before include "Hereditary commander-in-chief in feudal Japan" , "Japanese military dictator" , "Japanese head" , "Old Japanese military ruler" , "No gush from this Japanese army commander" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
