With this separation of soldiers and farming, the battle overturned the common sense of the off-season and formed an army that could fight at any time. Even Shingen Takeda says he pulled up soldiers during the busy farming season.
Establishment of a corps for the direction
Nobunaga Oda had a problem with his rule as the territory expanded after the capture of Mino.
Nobunaga has a limit in managing a vast territory. So Nobunaga decided to let his talented vassals take control of a certain area, showing his general policy.
The establishment of this corps began around 1570.
Mr. Asai / Asakura Katsuie Shibata and Nobumori Sakuma We will place the senior vassals in the main places and begin to improve the defense from the eastern shore to the southern shore of Lake Biwa. In this way, the Asai-Asakura Allied Forces were gradually cornered.
Hokuriku Area Corps led by Shibata Katsuie

Tensho 3 years When Nobunaga subdued Echizen's Ikko-ikki, Echizen's rule Katsuie Shibata I left it to the vassals centered on. Furthermore, Kaga's Ikko-ikki subjugation order Also issued. At first, it seems that it was left to Hiromasa Ryoda, but he was dismissed because he couldn't achieve the desired results, and Katsuie Shibata got a white arrow.
The corps led by the Shibata Katsuie is called the Hokuriku area corps.
The ultimate goal is to fight the coming Uesugi However, he was refraining from Katsuie.
Chinese corps led by Hideyoshi Hashiba
Tensho 5 years Hideyoshi Hashiba Chugoku region capture Order.
When Hideyoshi succeeded in capturing Kouzuki Castle in Harima Province, he continued to capture Miki Castle, Nagamizuyama Castle, and Tottori Castle one after another. In this way, Hideyoshi will take on the challenge of capturing Takamatsu Castle in Bichu in the 10th year of the Tensho era, with Nobunaga's confidence.
Meanwhile, Hideyoshi was in charge of controlling Harima Province. After the fall of Miki Castle, he was instrumental in the reconstruction of Miki Town by Hideyoshi.
Akechi Mitsuhide was ordered to unify the cabin
In-flight Was entrusted with Akechi Mitsuhide was.
Tensho 3 years Since then, Mitsuhide has been ordered by Nobunaga to capture Tamba. However, Hatano Hideharu of Yagami Castle I was forced to struggle due to the betrayal of.
In the meantime, Mitsuhide is Yamato, Harima, Settsu I finally brought Yagami Castle to the fall of the castle while fighting, such as rushing to cheer. After that, Mitsuhide Kameyama Castle You will settle in and take control of Tamba.
Kanto area corps is Takigawa Kazumasu, Shikoku area is Oda Nobutaka
In addition, Kazumasu Takigawa in the Kanto area Hojo and Tohoku Date, Uesugi Shikoku area Nobutaka Kobe The Shikoku front army with the general general will also be formed in a hurry.
In the same year that Nobunaga organized the Shikoku area, Nobunaga died due to the Honnoji Incident, and Nobunaga's Tenka Fubu ended here.
It is said that each corps commander demonstrated his uniqueness based on Nobunaga's certain policy. However, he was mercilessly dismissed if he did not achieve certain results.
Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple surrendered in the 8th year of the Tensho era, but it took too long to expel Nobumori Sakuma, the innkeeper who took command, to Koyasan.
Therefore, the military commander who was appointed as the commander would not be relieved and would sometimes have doubts about Nobunaga. Therefore, the daimyo who rebelled against Nobunaga did not end. The reason may be a reflection of the pay-for-performance principle of overdoing it.
