===Ishiyama Hongan-ji War [1570-1580]===
I suppose there's a really good example of siege warfare involving Oda Nobunaga. So in Japan, you have these different Buddhist sects and one of them, Jōdo Shinshū, was particularly powerful and particularly worrying for Oda Nobunaga because the people in this particular sect could be almost pitted out at the last minute to become a kind of pop-up army so that the patriarch, for want of a better word, of this particular sect could issue a statement against Oda Nobunaga as he did, declaring him an enemy and saying that people would be rewarded in the next life if they stand up against him. And the followers of this sect included some fairly wealthy merchants who could effectively equip themselves and feed themselves. So the danger of these pop-up armies appearing almost out of nowhere was extraordinary for Oda Nobunaga and he worried about it and he actually resented it very much.
And so he launched a siege against the main compound in Osaka of the Jōdo Shinshū sect, which lasted actually for a while. It wasn't entirely successful because Osaka, of course, is on the water and so the patriarch had allies, pirate Daimyo, I suppose you could call them, who for a while would supply the castle by sea.
But Oda Nobunaga managed to defeat those pirates at sea and so after a while the Jodo Shinshu sect holed up in this fortified temple complex in Osaka had to give up. They did at the last minute, the son, I think, of the patriarch, if I've got it right, when he was forced to come out, set fire to the place just before he came out on the basis that if the Jodo Shinshu sect cannot have that fortress anymore, then Oda Nobunaga certainly can't have it either.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
The Ikko-ikki finally surrenders through the agency of the Court, the court noble is sent by the emperor to broker a settlement and a surrender by the Ishiyama Hongan-ji, which ends that.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>

[[Ishiyama Hongan-ji War]]
{{Era|Timeline}}{{WP-REAL}}
The '''Ishiyama Hongan-ji War''' was a [[Sengoku period|Sengoku]] military campaign by [[Oda Nobunaga]] and his forces against the [[Ikkō-ikki]], a faction of the {{Wiki|Jōdo Shinshū}} [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] sect, lasting from 1570 until 1580.
The Jōdo Shinshū were a sect whose power and wealth worried Nobunaga, who feared that the sect could issue a statement against him, declaring him an enemy and raising armies from their followers. He then launched a siege against their {{Wiki|Ishiyama Hongan-ji|main compound}} in [[Osaka]], which lasted much longer than expected due to the waterways leading to the complex since Chief Abbot {{Wiki|Kōsa}} had allies that managed to supply the castle by sea until Oda eventually defeated these mariners.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
The Ikkō-ikki surrendered in 1580, after a court noble was sent by [[Michihito|Emperor Ōgimachi]] to broker a settlement between the two parties.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref> When the Ikkō-ikki were forced out of their fortress, Kōsa's son set fire to the complex, not wishing for it to fall into Nobunaga's hands.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>
