Talk:Siege of Kawagoe Castle

Tsunashige
I was looking up who lead the battle of Kawagoe and found two candidates: Hojo Tsunashige (son in law of Hojo Ujiyasu, see Hōjō Ujiyasu) and Hojo Tsunanari (adopted brother of Hojo Ujiyasu, see Hōjō Tsunanari). The sources I found on google are not in unison about this. Samurai archives gives both options Tsunashige and Tsunari. I see several options: Also there might be a mix up in naming. I found one source where Hojo Tsunanari (brother) is called Hojo Tsunashige (brother), but it is def the same person (see ). Possibly Tsunari is also known as Tsunashige, or maybe the kanji can be read like this? This might have caused a mix up.
 * One of them was present and the other was not
 * They were both present and one was the actual leader

Does anyone know more about this? Who really lead the battle of Kawagoe?

In case of no reply, for the moment, when I translate articles into dutch, I will assume that Tsunari lead the attack, that some sources call him Tsunashige, and that Tsunashige was present but did not lead the defense. Kind regards, Taketa (talk) 12:19, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
