Oda Nobukatsu (織田 信雄, 1558 – 1630), also known as Kitabatake Tomotoyo,[1] was a Japanese samurai. The second son of Oda Nobunaga, Nobukatsu was adopted into the Kitabatake clan of Ise Province. Nobunaga later had key Kitabatake clan members assassinated to clear way for Nobukatsu to rise in the hierarchy, essentially taking over the clan from within.[2]
History
Wishing to establish his reputation, Nobukatsu decided to invade the neighboring province of Iga without his father's permission. In 1578, taking the Iga ikki's expulsion of their military governor as an excuse, he dispatched General Takigawa Kazumasu to build a castle for them to use as a staging point for the invasion, though Kazumasu and his forces were forced to retreat in November of that year. In October 1579, Nobukatsu opted for a larger invasion, gathering over 10,000 men and entering Iga in a three-pronged attack: 8,000 from the north, and a group of 1,500 and 1,300 from the south. Once again, however, the Iga forces used guerrilla tactics and inflicted heavy losses against Nobukatsu's forces, forcing a retreat. Upon learning of his son's humiliating defeat, Nobunaga threatened to disown him, though did not follow through with it. Nobunaga then took over the Iga campaign and defeated them in 1581. In early November of that year, Nobunaga visited Iga before withdrawing his army from it and giving it for Nobukatsu to administer.[2]
