Naoe Kanetsugu
Thirty thousand of Uesugi's men moved towards Yamagata from the north while Naoe Kanetsugu began his siege on Hasedō. Having received reinforcements of 100 horsemen and 200 arquebusiers, he laid siege to Hasedō for fourteen days before an army under Date Masamune and Rusu Masakage arrived to relieve the castle.
