Here is a short clip historian Owada Tetsuo discussing the Battle of Okehazama regarding to the Toyotomi Kyodai drama. As I written earlier, I was disgusted about how the battle looked cheap, scripted, and slow. Here in this video, Owada discussed the numbers of the Imagawa army. I am in the 20,000-25,000 camp, separation between soldier and farmer, and Nobunaga's army. Here is a key point here, Nobunaga's army might have been small, but they had lot of experience in full combat. For example, the years between 1552-59 unifying Owari gave Nobunaga's soldiers experience they needed. They were toughen up and ready to go. Full advantage to Nobunaga.
Tenka no tame!
