In 1574, Nobunaga put an end to the Nagashima confederates. It was a slaughterhouse. It had to be. Here is a small passage from The Chronicle of Lord Nobunaga (p. 216).
"Meanwhile, Nobunaga encircled the forts at Nakae and Yamagashima with multiple fences, cooping up the twenty thousand men and women remaining there. He gave orders to set fire to those enclosures on all four sides and been everyone inside. Having dealt with the confederates as he pleasesd, on the 29th of the Ninth Month he returned to Gifu from his campaign."
Tenka no tame!
