Hi everyone! It's me again. If this battle seems...different than what you're used to (like maybe what's on Wikipedia), it's because, as always, we are only using the most trustworthy of primary sources and modern examination of them. In this case, the depiction here is based on the Chronicles of Lord Nobunaga (Shinchōkōki), supplemented by surviving letters of the battle's participants, including but not limited to a very brief report of the battle to Shōgun Yoshiaki from Nobunaga himself. In fact this video directly quotes a line from the English translation of the Chronicles at 10:07. These sources clearly contradict the traditional depiction in enough places that I've made the decision to use new revisionist theory based on the Chronicles instead. There's also a mistake in the video. At 6:25, Nobunaga is depicted as running back to Gifu via the Nakasendō highway. He in fact turned southeast from Kannonji Castle towards Hino Castle in order to escape the trap set for him. From there he entered the Chikusa road into the mountains directly east just before his enemies could block his path, almost got shot by a sniper in the mountain but got out the other side into Ise, and then north back to Gifu. I did not catch this mistake until too late, for which I apologize. Also 6:08, we meant Nobunaga marched east. I totally didn't catch that. Oops! Once again, I am here to answer any simple questions. Please post complicated questions to reddit's Askhistorians.

The part where you said they retreated must be false. No Samurai would flee from battle.

There is a legend where Oda Nobunaga retreated from Echizen because Oichi, his sister who was married to the Azai Nagamasa, sent her brother a sack of beans tied at both ends, ostensibly as a good-luck charm but in reality a warning that he was about to be attacked from both front and rear by the Asakura and Azai clans. According to the story, Nobunaga understood the message and retreated from his brother-in-law's assault in time.

This is the kind of video I stop everything I'm doing for.

Actually，the Saito Dosan is the father-in-law of Oda Nobunaga.And He actually died of the rebellion launched by his son Saito Yoshitatsu. Before he died ，he wrote a letter to Oda Nobunaga for help.But it’s too late.(you can find all of this on Wikipedia)

_Sighs_ Alright then *Launches Shogun 2*

Toyotomi Hideyoshi is always worth a mention when it comes to Oda Nobunaga. His life reads something like an unbelievable kind of story of rags to riches through the hell of war, like Barry Lyndon or Gone With the Wind.

It's crazy to me nobunaga was able to win so many battles and gain control while being in the middle of japan and surrounded by like 40000 enemies.

please continue with this series, its a great channel and the fact that uve included non-western battles is a great addition so pls finish the entire sengoku period if possible. obviously sekigahara is a must in the series

These videos really are getting better and better.

Awesome! Was just watching the earlier episodes of this series and was waiting for the next one to come out!

I just checked your channel yesterday and said "oh I miss Baz battles" thank you for what you are doing and keep making these beautiful videos

Thank you. I'd love to see more of these sengoku-jidai videos!

This is just a so freaking awesome series, thank you and ParallelPain so much for it!

Starting 2019 off right by finding this gem of a channel Subscribed

Everytime i watch these videos i start playing shogun 2 lol

Would love to see a mini series on the Hundred Years War like you did with the first crusade. And really appreciate your videos! thanks very much for doing this.

Your channel deserves so much more attention. Keep up with the amazing work!

Thank you for the documentaries you provide, they are very interesting. Please do more of them and more often (if possible). Thanks!

We wait so long it ends quickly. Great job as always.

Good work, keep it going Baz Battles !!!! don't want this channel to stop

Another superb video and my mandatory like!

I really love the sengoku jidai videos, like all of you guy's vids are great, but these ones stand out the most to me

I love all your videos, but I especially love your Sengoku Jidai vids.

Where have you been all my life Baz 😁. Thanks for the video today I really needed it.

Back on track!!! Keep it coming =) we miss you.

Yessss more Sengoku Jidai. Keep 'em coming!

You know I thought my night couldn't get better. Receives a notification from BazBattles.........YASSS

Thank you for the great video

I am amazed how much of details have been retained across so many centuries from all those battles!

1:27 - "Join the Light Side" "It's not funny" I am SO dead XD Most amusing and an excellent video again.

This channel deserves more subscribers!

Ashikaga Yoshiaki actually enlisted help from the Asakura after he realized Oda Nobunaga was going to be a huge threat to him. He used Oda Nobunaga to become shogun and then realized he would probably be his puppet. The Asakura realizing this was Nobunaga's plan from the beginning were more than happy to attack Nobunaga and strip him of his ever growing power and influence that was beginning to threaten all of them.

Please please keep going, as someone who lives in Japan this is awesome because there's so much history here but its all complex and confusing asf... nice video!

At last! Been waiting for centuries for your next video. BazBattles the best!

Nice to know more about these battles in Japanese history. I would love to see more video's like this one.

Great videos. I love the Sengoku Jidai series. I hope that more videos are coming ^^ there are so many battles I want to watch, and more characters' stories to explore. Ganbatte...

So happy to look at this kind of vid, informative and fascinating page of (distant) History...Great illustrations/animations...👍👍

For all the history channels that's on KZread today and each with their own style....BazBattles was the first channel I ever saw so for me, it holds number one, always ❤

The animation in your videos are better than most games I know of.. Keep it up!!

It's nice to see BB covers war history in a unique region and time period. I think too many of the other similar channels have been covering the same battles with different spins, almost like they are coordinating so they never cover the same battles at the same time. The primary source of this info is probably harder to research and present in this format. I appreciate this!

your videos are the best, i like the smooth animations unlike some other channels which rush out content

*sees Baz upload* STOP EVERYTHING!!!

I love these about the Sengoku Jidai. I know bits and pieces of the history, but some of these videos have really tied things together and given me a deeper insight. Also I snickered at that hint in the little notes at the end. I don't want to spoil it for anyone so I won't say anything on it. I appreciate finding out about Toyotomi's origin. I knew he was an ashigaru, but to think this is where he rose up from.

The best researched battle channel. Love your video

Amazing video! Been waiting for a long time!!!

i think you should do the entire Sengoku Jidai! i love that era and i grew up with Samurai Warriors so this is a treat

usually when i watch medieval European battles i always find fault in either one or both sides, but the sengoku period fielded such great strategists and tacticians that i can actually learn from and admire their brilliance

Finally a good channel to watch for me:) Keep updating please , maybe some battle in WW1/WW2/Civil war :)

Bro I love your battle videos !! You have to make more sengoku battles !!

Thanks for your great work

I was wondering yesterday when will your next video get out. Thank you Baz!

This has to be my favorit channel

please, more battles of Sengoku Jidai, Sekigahara and Osaka Siege for example, you are doing a great job!

Thanks for covering these "minor" fight. Most series on Sengoku Jidai just jump straight from Okehazama to Nobunaga liberated the Tokugawa and is now holding the Shogun hostage make it feel like the whole Imagawa clan just up and die at Okehazama.

Great video series! Clear accent English narration too.

Sooo good! Thank you!
