History and attractions of Nanshan Castle

Is this Jishan Castle? | Overview of history

Sunshan Castle is a mountain castle located in Tanuki-cho, Hachioji City, Kyoto, during the war period. It has been used as an excellent land for the Tamagawa River and the Akikawa River, and is a well-regarded natural fort, which is also one of the largest medieval castle forts in the eastern region.

Nowadays, Toyama Castle has been designated as a national historical monument, and has opened to the east of Kyoto Toyama Park. Perfectly preserved within the park, including the comprehensive castle tower, the inner temple, the Senjoshiki ruins, the dried-up Shojo River, and the Hijikata construction. In 2017, Lushan Castle was selected as one of the “Japan’s 100 Great Castles (now)”, and a hot historical scenic spot for those who love the castle.

The most distinctive feature of Sunshan City is its well-utilized natural topographical defense construction. Approximately 160 miles of mountains and hills, the Great River of Tama River — the Tamagawa River — is a natural river. In addition, the exhibition of Taishan City has completed the pinnacle of the country’s historical fort construction technology, comprehensive construction of the castle, and the design of the castle river and the design of the castle in the depths.

Construction period and historical background

Construction by Mr. Oishi

It was built in 1521 (18th year of the Pingsho era/1st year of Taiei). The Oishi clan was the owner of a powerful region in the military, and was a self-proclaimed descendant of Kiso no Naka. From the beginning, he was based in Takatsuki Castle (now Takatsuki-cho, Hachioji City).

Oishi’s heavy weight was developed to improve the defensive terrain, and the construction of the new castle on Xia no Oka was completed. In 2021, we will commemorate the 500th anniversary of the construction of Nanshan City, various activities will be carried out, and the history of the area will be celebrated again.

Exhibition of the Hojo clan’s bright new owner and the castle

The most important turning point in the history of Tsuyama Castle was the establishment of the Hojo clan. The Hojo clan was the third son of Ujiyasu Hojo, the feudal lord of Sagami Province, and later received the title of Oishi’s head of the household. This is part of the Hojo clan’s military strategy and influence in the western part of the military province.

However, in 1557 (Koji 3rd year), he entered the city of Sushan Castle, but it is clear that the date of his entry is the focus of controversy among researchers. The progress of the castle’s construction on a large scale, the introduction of the most advanced technology in the era of the war, and the unparalleled strength of its construction.

Under the rule of the Teru clan, Toyama Castle was established as a military base under the control of the Hojo clan, and was also an important military base in the eastern region of the city. The castle town is also a magnificent, dynamic center of political and military affairs.

Takeda Shingen

1569 Takeda Army Invasion

The most famous incident in the history of Toyama Fortress was the invasion of Takeda Shingen in 1569 (12th year of the Eiroku Era), which was called the “Taiyama Battle”. In October of the same year, the Daimyo of Kai Province, Takeda Shingen, was able to invade the Musashi Province by passing a large army over Kobutsu Pass.

Shingen’s goal was to attack and conquer Odawara Castle, the Hojo clan’s stronghold, but he had to attack and conquer Toyama Castle first. However, the Hojo clan was strong in defending the mountain castle, and the troops were stationed on both sides.

Fierce battle and successful defense

The fierce attack of the Takeda army in the area, the strong resistance of the Hojo clan and the strong defensive construction of the castle on Mt. The Takeda Army once advanced to the third layer of the castle, but from the beginning it was impossible to break through the main castle’s defenses. The castle river is dry in the depths, the castle gate cloth station is cleverly designed, the castle can be used to gain more victories than the city, and the number of enemy units exceeds the limit.

At the end, Takeda Shingen’s plan to attack and seize the mountain castle was launched, and Kobori was pushed forward. In this battle, the fortifications of Lushan City were fully developed, with great defensive ability, and the historical forts during the war entered the war, and they played an important role in the battle.

Yo Uesugi Shinnobu’s series

Tsuyama Castle was not established, and Takeda Shingen had a close connection with him. Atsushi Uesugi’s Taji invasion of the eastern region, the Yohojo clan engaged in a fierce battle. The castle was built as an important point for the Hojo clan, and served as an important defense against foreign invaders.

Hachioji Castle where Miyoshi lived

The Hojo clan was in charge of the Takeda Army, which had retreated during the Battle of the Mountains, but others knew that the weak point in the defense of the Castle of the Mountains. Of course, it was easy to attack the West, and other orders were taken. After completing the first attack and the third layer of the fort, the fortification was strengthened and the defense of the troupe was strengthened.

From the end of the 1570s to the beginning of the 1580s, the clan began building a new castle on Mt. Fukasa (now Hachioji-cho, Hachioji City), which became Hachioji Castle. Hachioji Castle is a complete mountain castle, its main castle is approximately 460 U.S. mountains, and defense construction has been completed.

In 1587 (15th year of the Tensho era), the residence of the general Ujira was completed and Hachioji Castle was completed. The next part of the capital belonged to the “Three and Three Men” series of forts, and for a period of time, the castle was replaced by Takatsuki Castle, then Suzan Castle, and the last one was Hachioji Castle. Each time you leave the capital, consider the strategy and defense, and consider the importance of the selection of forts chosen by the Marquis at the time of the war.

The ruins of Jishan Castle have been preserved, but the ruins have been perfectly preserved, making it an important historical site for research on the development of the country.

Nanshan Castle Construction | Castle fort construction techniques during the time of the war;

Chiropractic defense work

Tsuyama Castle is one seat of Tashiroyama Castle, which consists of a main castle (honmaru) and a multi-castle pond (Kuryuban). Kasumino Castle’s main castle pond, main enclosure, central enclosure (southern enclosure), two enclosures (senjojiki), and three enclosures (three enclosures), each area is separated by the dry construction of Kawa Castle.

Kasinojo Castle, 56 years old, was one of the largest forts in the East region during the war. The misty hill topography is enhanced, the general defense system of the maze is designed, and the main enclosure is difficult for the enemy to cross.

Honmaru Wachuken

The main enclosure is the most important area of Kasinojo Castle, it is the main residence, and it is also the guiding place. Nowadays, the construction of the earthworks and water wells in the castle was a long time ago, so let’s take a look at the ancient Japanese scene. A bird’s-eye view of the Tamagawa Kazuaki River and Akika Obono.

The Nakanomaru (inner temple) is the second most important fortress behind the Honmaru (main temple), and is used for defense as a fortress. Ichijo Fuka’s dried up castle, river commander’s Honmaru and Nakanomaru were separated, the immediate envoy’s attack was completed, and the Honmaru’s safety was ensured.

Ninomaru (Senjoji) Japanese outer area

Ninomaru, also known as “Senjochi”, is a troupe for the Ichiza Shonomi Hirodai, and can be used for military combat. During the defense of the fort in the Senza Senjo area, it is important to play and protect the outer castle walls.

On the outside, there is a small mound in front of the entrance (small end) of the fort, which can be used to block enemy entry and attack by friendly troops. Nanshan Castle has three outer areas: a corner outer area, a large outer area, a eastern outer area, and each troupe has a thousand lengths of territory since the capital’s enemy. Umadashi fortress researchers have advanced knowledge of fort construction techniques during the time of the war.

Dried-out castle Kawa earthen embankment

The defense of Nanshan Castle is the earthen embankment of the river and highlands of the dry city. Within the fortress, the dry city river is distributed in various sizes, with a depth of more than 10 meters. However, the castle river is not deep, yet there are many twists and turns, and the actions of an attacker are limited to effective territory.

The earth embankment and dry castle river phase phase, and the castle fort’s inner hospital. The height of the earthen embankment is different, and it is over 5 meters above sea level. As long as the earth is built on the embankment, it can be built as a castle or as a castle, and its defensive ability can be strengthened.

Clever design for the castle gate

The small entrance (city gate) is a fort-like entrance, and its defense system is medium-weak. Lushan Castle’s clever location has been designed to improve its defense ability.

A typical defense technique is “Yokoya-gari”, which is a quick construction of an earthen embankment and an outer fort. In addition, in front of the main gate, the entrance to the castle was strengthened by a triple defense system.

Water source | Mizui Ryokei

It is important to protect the water source in the mountainous area. A water well has been excavated inside the multi-layered castle tower in the castle tower. As of now, there is still a long history of water well, and the depth of the water well is more than 10 meters.

This ensures that the water well is a sufficient source of water during the envoy’s time in the city. His great resistance ability was the key factor in the successful invasion of Suzan Castle by Takeda Shingen.
