Ozai Castle History
Construction period from the end of the Heian period to the long period of construction
During the construction period of Xiaozai Castle, however, it was universally recognized that it was built from the end of the Heian period to the early part of the colonial period. The most likely builder was Saburo Shigenari, a vassal of Gencho, or Kotaro Kozai, the son of another.
Shige Saburo Shigenari was a vassal of the Minamoto Dynasty and a major force in Sagami Province. The fort was built on this site by Kotaro Kozai, another son of the Emperor, and was given the name “Ozai Castle”. At the beginning of the Chōjō period, Oza Castle was similar to Kotaro Oza’s residence.
Key strategic points: key points on the railway and the Tamagawa River
The main reason for the construction of a small castle is its geographical location. The castle fort is an important transportation hub, and the Yanoguchi crossing on the Tama River is an important transportation hub. In modern times, the connection between military, military and national roads, political and military affairs is of paramount importance, and this is a necessary condition for area consolidation.
The Oza Castle area is a key location at the entrance to the Tamagawa River under the control system, which is not a residence for samurai, and a strategic strategic location for traffic control in the controlled area. The natural fortifications of the Tama River and the natural slopes of the Tama Hills, the construction of which is complete and complete with defensive construction, is a strong fort.
The battle of Ujiyasu Hojo during the war
One of the most important areas in the history of Oza Castle was the administration of Ujiyasu Hojo during the war. Established in 1537, Ujiyasu Hojo, ruler of the Eastern District of Chengdu, was in charge of Ozai Castle.
At that time, the Ogiyani-Uesugi clan was under control of Ozai Castle, which was a major obstacle to the military power of the Hojo clan. In the early 19th century, Ujiyasu said that the attack on the castle was the first step in the military’s life, and it also served as an important military role, and later conquered the eastern region and established the foundation.
After the establishment of the military and the establishment of the military at the head of the field, the establishment of the first major military command was established. Due to the fact that Ozai Castle was in this country, the history of the power battle in the eastern region of the country was a piece of history with heavy ink and ink.
废弃加后
After the end of the War, it is unclear when the castle was built, but it is universally acknowledged that its function as a fort disappeared between the end of the War and the beginning of the Jiangzhou. After the enactment of the “one province and one castle” ordinance of the Yoe Ei Shogunate, the period of time when the fortifications in the medieval period were extended.
After the expansion, the castle fort was covered with forest cover for a long time, but now it has been designated by Kawasaki City as a green land protection area, and the important history of production has been added to the protection.

City Fortress Department
Oza Castle is a typical medieval Keiyama Castle, the end of the Tama Hills. The fortifications were built in the mountains, Beibei Sansacheon, Eastbei Tama River, south facing Heseo-myeon land, natural fortifications, rivers, prisons and prisons, and the land has been exploited to the maximum extent since then.
Since the fortress defense work has been carried out in the mountains for a while, on the top of the mountain in Yanyugun, the fortress has been laid down, and there are many outer forts around the main fort. When the envoy was present, he was walking in the mountains, and the undulating topography and man-made construction traces were typical of medieval forts that still had a sense of enlightenment.
Dry Castle River Land
Xiaozai Castle Site is the oldest impression of the castle river. Inside the castle fort, there are many lines running dry, and the castle river is still very clear. Due to the dryness of the castle river, due to the invasion of enemy enemies, various areas within the fortifications were separated.
The depth of the river’s dryness varies depending on its location, but in a certain area it can be as deep as it is, and the technology for building forts will evolve at the time. As we walked along the riverbed of the castle, we realized the importance of the defense of medieval castle fortifications.
Hijikata Construction Works
The construction of the earthworks, the drying of the castle, the river, and the important defense work of the city. The remains of the earthworks at the ruins of the castle in Kozai, where the outer fort was built and the river and side walls of the castle were suspended. In addition, for the construction of the earth, the enemy’s arrows and stones were placed, and at the same time, the fort’s internal view was opened, and the fort’s defense function increased.

Cloth Bureau
Ozai Castle Yuta’s burial mound (Furuzuka) was completed. The defense structure has multiple layers, the main shell is placed in the center, and the second and third layers are placed in the rear. Every layer of the city was depleted, and the artificial slope of the city was opened, and one layer of the castle was attacked, and the first layer of defense work was put in place to resist.
Immediately, the envoy was present, people could understand the terrain and the layout of the castle, and the visitors understood that it was a medieval fortress-like defensive field.
