Mikatagahara Video


 Here is an unusual long video by Owada Tetsuo explaining the key points on the Battle of Mikatagahara 1572/73.  Nobunaga sent a token force led by Sakuma Nobumori to help Tokugawa Ieyasu.  It did not matter, since Ieyasu was routed by Takeda Shingen.  Nobunaga lost key people such as Sawaki Tohachi, Yamaguchi Hida, and Kato Saburo. While the video is long, it is informative.  One will learn that the famous Ieyasu portrait of himself after the battle was probably painted during the Edo Era.


Nobunaga no tame!
