Of Oda's forces, an estimated 10,000 Ashigaru arquebusiers with 3,000 of the best shots, they were placed in three ranks under the command of Sassa Narimasa, Maeda Toshiie, and Honda Tadakatsu. Ōkubo Tadayo was stationed outside the palisade, as was Sakuma Nobumori, who feigned a retreat. Shibata Katsuie and Hashiba Hideyoshi protected the left flank.
