[Castle name]
Noda Castle
Sadamitsu Suganuma surrenderred twice from being attacked by Imagawa clan and ShingenTakeda
[Description]
Noda Castle is located in Shinshiro, Aichi and was built in early Sengoku era by Suganuma. It was known for its stellar defense which came from its terrain.
Sadamitsu Suganuma used to serve for Imagawa clan but left after the battle of Okehazama. They were forced to flee from the castle after being attacked by Imagawa clan, but successfully gained back control after a night attack.
They got in line after Motoyasu Matsudaira (Ieyasu Tokugawa) took control of Miyoshi. In 1571, Shingen Takeda started making his way for Kyoto and Miyoshi, Masakage Yamagata’s special force started making their way for Noda Castle.
Sadamitsu surrendered after getting cut off water and retreated to Hamamatsu Castle, Ieyasu’s base. He followed Ieyasu after capital was moved to the west, but his successor Terumasa Ikeda abandoned and ultimately destroyed the castle.
During the siege of Noda Caste, there’s a myth that Takeda was sniped when he came out to hear the war horn from the castle. According to Suganuma’s sources, it states Takeda’s troops became boisterous, but did not specifically say Takeda was hit.
