Chausuyama





During the Battle of Nagashino 1575 Nobunaga moved his army from Mt. Gokurakuji to Chausuyama.  This was an important tactical move since Nobunaga moved his army to the high point where he can clearly see the entire battlefield.  Chausuyama was 134.5 meters or 441 feet above sea level.  Once the allied Oda/Tokugawa armies shorten the battlefield, the Takeda mounted infantry was at a disadvantage.

Nobunaga no tame!
