Using clever tactics and an intimate understanding of the terrain, he captured Sarubami Castle, earning a reputation as a master strategist.
Nagahide’s skill in siege warfare and psychological warfare was unmatched. In the Battle of Kannonji, he swiftly dismantled the Rokkaku clan’s defenses, paving the way to Kyoto.
