In 1575 Takeda Katsuyori laid siege to Nagashino castle. The Takeda samurai were brave, loyal and renowned for their cavalry charges; but the great general Oda Nobunaga, counting on Takeda's impetuosity, had 3,000 musketeers waiting behind field defences for their assault. As the smoke cleared the face of Japanese warfare had changed forever.

When Portuguese traders took advantage of the constant violence in Japan to sell the Japanese their first firearms, one of the quickest to take advantage of this new technology was the powerful daimyo Oda Nobunaga. In 1575 the impetuous Takeda Katsuyori laid siege to Nagashino castle, a possession of Nobunaga's ally, Tokugawa Ieyasu. An army was despatched to relieve the siege, and the two sides faced each other across the Shidarahara. The Takeda samurai were brave, loyal and renowned for their cavalry charges, but Nobunaga, counting on Katsuyori's impetuosity, had 3,000 musketeers waiting behind prepared defences for their assault. The outcome of this clash of tactics and technologies was to change the face of Japanese warfare forever.

The Battle of Nagashino took place on June 28, 1575 near Nagashino Castle on Shitarabara Plain in Mikawa Prefecture, Japan. Many historians cite it as the first modern Japanese battle. I will simulate a hypothesis in which Takeda makes better use of the terrain and available means, without sacrifices – in the style of the simulated medieval European battles in my books “Battle of Créçy, 1346” and “Battle of Agincourt, 1415” (in my series “Historical Simulation of Wars in the Medieval Era”). And, for this, he will defend himself in the style of the Roman Julius Caesar, theme of my book “Campaign and Battle of Alesia, 52 BC” (in my “Historical Simulation of the Roman Wars” series), internally against the castle s 500-strong garrison and externally against the Oda-Tokugawa army of 38,000.

This comprehensive volume traces the evolution of Japanese military history—from 300 AD to present day foreign relations—and reveals how the country's cultural views of power, violence, and politics helped shape Japan's long and turbulent history of war. The legacy of Japanese warfare is steeped in honor, duty, and valor. Yet, some of the more violent episodes in this country's military history have tainted foreign attitudes toward Japan, oftentimes threatening the economic stability of the Pacific region. This book documents Japan's long and stormy history of war and military action, provides a thorough analysis of the social and political changes that have contributed to the evolution of Japan's foreign policy and security decisions, and reveals the truth behind the common myths and misconceptions of this nation's iconic war symbols and events, including samurais, warlords, and kamikaze attacks. Written by an author with military experience and insight into modern-day Japanese culture gained from living in Japan, A Military History of Japan: From the Age of the Samurai to the 21st Century examines how Japan's history of having warrior-based leaderships, imperialist governments, and dictators has shaped the country's concepts of war. It provides a complete military history of Japan—from the beginning of the Imperial institution to the post-Cold War era—in a single volume. This thoughtful resource also contains photos, maps, and a glossary of key Japanese terms to support learning.
