Historicity According to the records from "History of Yamaguchi Prefecture", and 56 documents from the "Documents of the Asa Mori Family, Sanyo Town Asa Library", Mōri Terumoto dispatched Kobayakawa Hidekane and Tachibana Muneshige from Hekiteikan as reinforcements for Mōri Motoyasu's army to capture Ōtsu Castle, which surrounded by a double moat and defe ...

Sieges Of The Sengoku Period
A siege () . is a military blockade of a city, or fortress, with the intent of conquering by attrition, or by well-prepared assault. Siege warfare (also called siegecrafts or poliorcetics) is a form of constant, low-intensity conflict characterized by one party holding a strong, static, defensive position. Consequently, an opportunity for negotiation between combatants is common, as proximity and fluctuating advantage can encourage diplomacy. A siege occurs when an attacker encounters a city or fortress that cannot be easily taken by a quick assault, and which refuses to surrender. Sieges involve surrounding the target to block provision of supplies and reinforcement or escape of troops (a tactic known as "investment"). This is typically coupled with attempts to reduce the fortifications by means of siege engines, artillery bombardment, mining (also known as sapping), or the use of deception or treachery to bypass defenses. Failing a military outcome, sieges can often be deci ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sekigahara Campaign
The Sekigahara Campaign was a series of battles in Japan fought between the Eastern Army aligned with Tokugawa Ieyasu and the Western Army loyal to Ishida Mitsunari, culminating in the decisive Battle of Sekigahara. The conflict was sparked by a punitive expedition led by Ieyasu against the Uesugi clan in the northeastern Tōhoku region, providing Mitsunari with an opportunity to denounce Ieyasu in the name of the infant ruling ''Sesshō and Kampaku, taikō'' Toyotomi Hideyori while the Tokugawa troops were in the field. Much of the campaign consisted of a struggle to control key castles on the Tōkaidō (road), Tōkaidō and the Nakasendō, the main roads linking Edo and the capital of Kyoto. However, battles and sieges far from these key highways, both in the Tōhoku and in pockets of resistance around the capital, had wide-reaching effects on the manoeuvring and availability of troops for the decisive battle at Sekigahara. The campaign also spilled over briefly into the souther ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
